Lyrics

Lifeform

Rraah! See the vibe we're on to
Close your eyes, look inside
You're talking to that monster
Still don't fit inside the box no time for no genre
No stylist fuck the media 'cause I wear what I want to

Greatness all around me
Drums bass guitars go hard never bar low like Gary
I'm engaged with the fans but, we ain't getting married
Come to a Hacktivist show then you know the mosh pit is savage

Born in the same city as punk and grime
When I combine them it's lightning and thunder time
Stay in your lane I run this line
In my zone stars planets and suns align
Not a genre
It's a lifeform
Never will I conform

Taking shots then you better be accurate
I'm shitting on critics aim for my pancreas
Because the H ain't even established yet
Thought that I was gonna slip and couldn't handle it
But the way I come and spit I'm so passionate
I manifest, yeah, there's a knack to this
For the last few years I been practicing
This time next year I'll be smashing it

Born in the same city as punk and grime
When I combine them it's lightning and thunder time
Stay in your lane I run this line
In my zone stars planets and suns align
Not a genre
It's a lifeform
Never
Will I conform
Never

Lurking in the shadows, big clouds of smoke lemon haze feeling paro
I'm bottom of the barrel, just come up off the gravel
Lit up like a candle
Ignite the man inside you for this life there is no manual
Not everybody's gonna see things the same
Way that you do but everyday is brand-new
Tight bars, screws loose
Got a few views on YouTube but still room to improve so

Lyrics that I spit like venom from a
Snake I could never be fake this recipes great
So gang that I might get it tatted on
My face, might give my nails black paint
My ex-girl thinks that's strange I don't do if for the fame
I do it 'cause I'm J
H to the U to the R to The mother fucking L E, don't ask me Y
I come up on Grime

Grime taught me that I could spit rhymes and
Be heard with my dead flat whack British accent
Time taught me I don't even need nationality stereotype or a faction
Post futuristic steampunk freedom fighter I find it
Useless to dream of a life where I'm respected for my fashion
Yeah, I knot my hair
Every day I kneel down in prayer, you might get bust with a chair
I do what it takes when it's time for action

I was born where punk was born, London born
But that's just a label I don't run around with it
It's the birth of these sounds that make me proud of it
Always this guy never wear a disguise and
When I write these rhymes always try to be wise

Now I'm deep in the Metal right up to my eyes
Can you hear the 8 strings coming from behind

My shades are dark black so you can't see my pupils
Last night I smoked about a half ounce of pure diesel
Had your girl teaching me a lesson like I was a fucking pupil
Hacktivist came in the game and found a fucking loophole
When I die bury me inside the fucking studio
I ain't even gonna try to satisfy or prove to you
I'm smashing up this game with a sock and a snooker ball
Yeah, I'm taking a shot, what the fuck you think I do music for, cunt

Resurrect me like a vinyl
I got the real sound that they can buy now
Don't copy nobodies style
Resurrect me like a vinyl
I got the real sound that they can buy now
Don't copy nobodies style

I'm turning up murdered out like I'm heading for a funeral
All scruffy like I've just left the urinal
I'm from a place that's dark and greezy
Where you always hear the sirens
Hear me spitting on Metal riffs or hear me spitting on Grime tunes
(Hear me spitting on Metal riffs or hear me spitting on Grime tunes)

Not a genre
It's a lifeform
Never
Will I conform
Not a genre
It's a lifeform
Never
Will I conform
