Chorus
I didn’t see this coming, I don’t see what’s coming
Seems like my visions blurred, visions blurred, vision blurred
I don’t know what’s coming, don’t know where I’m going
Seems like my visions blurred, visions blurred, vision blurred
I didn’t see this coming, I don’t see what’s coming
Seems like my visions blurred, visions blurred, vision blurred
I don’t know what’s coming, don’t know where I’m going
Seems like my visions blurred, visions blurred, vision blurred
Verse 1
I had plans I had plans I had so many plans
Go link up with the man dem, then fly out to Japan
こんにちは ジェネシセリヤです
Fuck a virus man I’m a survivalist
Went viral of course I thrived in this
Maybe this is a sign a time to rest
So as I rest my eyes lie on my bed
Fight demons inside my head
They’re telling me theirs a rise in death
So I cannot deny I’m blessed
I cannot deny the stress but I will not resign my quest and
I was born for major things so I will be surviving this.
And how did how did we fuck up this planet so bad bro?
I’m looking outside it’s mad bro
They say it’s not man made is that so?
But they never give us the facts though.
Chorus 2
I didn’t see this coming, I don’t see what’s coming
Seems like my visions blurred, visions blurred, vision blurred
I don’t know what’s coming, don’t know where I’m going
Seems like my visions blurred, visions blurred, vision blurred
I didn’t see this coming, I don’t see what’s coming
Seems like my visions blurred, visions blurred, vision blurred
I don’t know what’s coming, don’t know where I’m going
Seems like my visions blurred, visions blurred, vision blurred
Verse 2
I had plans I had plans I had big dutty plans.
The album about to drop I told em this one’s a madting this one’s golden.
This one touch down trust I’m blowing, this is my chance I just know it
So many put their trust in me, featured for free and I won’t blow it.
But then we got locked down, everything stopped now everything shutdown.
How we gon’ shutdown clubs with performance when everythings shut now?
So what now? Is it all over? Do I just stop now?
You know me better than that I always come back when I’m knocked down.
And I wasn’t knocked down for long
No pouting no doubt I’m on one the strong one moves as they shout me on
This ain’t about clout this is a sound beyond
This the power of one holding it down as I expound beyond
A place where everything you found is gone
And everything you lost is found
And everything you found is God.
Breakdown
I was down once time
I needed a win
I was down once time
I needed a win
I said a prayer
I said Lord
One day I’m gonna lose
But not today, don’t let me lose today
One day I’m gonna lose
But not today, don’t let me lose today
Chorus 3
I didn’t see this coming, I don’t see what’s coming
Seems like my visions blurred, visions blurred, vision blurred
I don’t know what’s coming, don’t know where I’m going
Seems like my visions blurred, visions blurred, vision blurred
I didn’t see this coming, I don’t see what’s coming
Seems like my visions blurred, visions blurred, vision blurred
I don’t know what’s coming, don’t know where I’m going
Seems like my visions blurred, visions blurred, vision blurred

Oi turn off the, turn off the click
Yeah, Aight
Yeah first take I’m keeping
Whatever the first take is that’s it, that’s how it’s going
Yeah
Oi mate cancel this whole fucking year
2020 I’m done with it, from the first of Jan to todays date
Everyday’s been a bunch of shit
Saying that they can’t me down, as long as I’m breathing I’ll come with it
21’ we gon’ run with it but 2020 I’m done with it
Oi mate cancel this whole fucking year
2020 I’m done with it, from the first of Jan to todays date
Everyday’s been a bunch of shit
Saying that they can’t me down, as long as I’m breathing I’ll come with it
21’ we gon’ run with it but 2020 I’m done with it
Mate are you being for real? How you lock me in the house I gotta be in the field
This the kind of madness you see in a film
Where zombies come and they eat and they kill
Some say the whole globe needed to chill
Had to slow down cos it needs to rebuild
Big cooperations do all the damage
But they get bailed out and we receive all the bills.
Mate are you having a fucking laugh
You’re clapping for nurses they’re up in arms
No PPE got em ducking SARS
They got heart but not enough fucking mask
Whole work force is cut in half
Shelves are empty what the fucking rass
My shape up is looking mash
Cos I ain’t seen my barber since fucking march.
Oi mate cancel this whole fucking year
2020 I’m done with it, from the first of Jan to todays date
Everyday’s been a bunch of shit
Saying that they can’t me down, as long as I’m breathing I’ll come with it
21’ we gon’ run with it but 2020 I’m done with it
Oi mate cancel this whole fucking year
2020 I’m done with it, from the first of Jan to todays date
Everyday’s been a bunch of shit
Saying that they can’t me down, as long as I’m breathing I’ll come with it
21’ we gon’ run with it but 2020 I’m done with it
My project was supposed to be out
But how’s it coming out if there’s no one about
People listen to music when they’re roaming about
Yeah I make house music but it’s not for the house
Now I gotta switch plans man and reroute
But you know me I still flow in a drought
You’re mad if you think this is slowing me down
I still take over the globe from the couch
And don’t compare no pop star to me
Billie made one song I made 23
And no I won’t make no number one
But bar for bar there’s levels b
I’m just pissed I can’t go to gym summer body done let my belly free
I just ate ice cream for breakfast
And breakfast time was quarter to three
Oi mate cancel this whole fucking year
2020 I’m done with it, from the first of Jan to todays date
Everyday’s been a bunch of shit
Saying that they can’t me down, as long as I’m breathing I’ll come with it
21’ we gon’ run with it but 2020 I’m done with it
Oi mate cancel this whole fucking year
2020 I’m done with it, from the first of Jan to todays date
Everyday’s been a bunch of shit
Saying that they can’t me down, as long as I’m breathing I’ll come with it

LOCKDOWN
You ain’t gotta thank me this comes naturally
Grow up in Luton with Nurse and Anthony
In the back streets where the youths serve candy
Sword in the dirt with the hand ting handy
Got birded I ain’t heard from Andy
Last I heard he had a bird in Bantry
Worked in Spoons but was moving Mandy
Then went Greece put in work in Zanti
Mate I’m certi heard I’m anti
Don’t try attack me then you won’t amp me
Mate I got a few little firms that back me
I’m talking Brixton, Grove and Hackney
Overstand me bro it’s family
Your side man wanna get all ranty
Nah that’s manky tell him chill
Or you’ll get you side burned like Ashanti
Nah that’s rank but the smoke’s all danky
Locked in doors getting hanky panky
Juice and gin no bras or pantie
Roll that ting looking large and lanky
Big like mampy try’na go Jam Down, Jamrock
Jam where the beach is sandy
Sand and sea where disease can’t catch me
I’m try’na be where the D’s can’t grab me ahh

REBELS
We set the vibes, we set the levels
We set the trends, we set the records
There’s blood diamonds and gold mines in the ghettos
We’re buffalo solders and rebels
We set the vibes, we set the levels

There’s blood diamonds and gold mines in the ghettos
We’re buffalo solders and rebels
Ah Ah you must of got us fucked up
In the gutter we make tough love out of tough luck
We make nuff stuff out of nothing man that’s just us
No silver spoons so take the smooth with the rough stuff
We don’t fuck with pigs
And skin the wolves before they huff puff
Puff puff pass we celebrate my dargy just buss
Nah not a case he passed uni moving up up

My man been repping Streatham
We were Dave before Santan
Blam Blam can hit the car
And make it handstand
Now that’s what happens
When a top boy meets a badman
Bad plan, feds are on him
Spotted on the gram fam
Caught him at his grans yard
And sent him to the slam slam
We set the vibes, we set the levels
We set the trends, we set the records
There’s blood diamonds and gold mines in the ghetto
We’re buffalo solders and rebels
We set the vibes, we set the levels
We set the trends, we set the records
There’s blood diamonds and gold mines in the ghetto
We’re buffalo solders and rebels

House Music
Used to do shows for a favour
But really didn’t make no paper
Then got a little bit of P
Maybe could buy a little trainer

And if you don’t know what to call it
House music

So put me on you playlist on your iTunes
Air Force creased up that’s alright dude
I’m try’na buy yards I don’t buy shoes
But it’s cool if that’s what you do
Me nah judge you nah gwan do you
It’s your money I can’t fault you
It’s your path you gotta walk through
But you see me I’m using music
To support my wife and two kids
So when they ask me what kind a tune this
I say house music
I make house music

I’ve been blessed so much I got goals
And this year I’m a get close
Slept on the floor is was dead cold
No heater so we kept close
Last year couldn’t afford either
This year I tell her get both
Used to do shows for a favour
But really didn’t make no paper
Then got a little bit of P
Maybe could buy a little trainer
Now if you ain’t got money we ain’t talking
