A Portrait lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, it's Lowkey, let's do this
This is a portrait

[Verse]
Still remain to be young and blessed
Differently gifted, since I was held at my mother's breast
Need to get away from the streets, in love with drugs and sex
Guns, glamour, blood and death, sh*t were London's best
Still feeling like we're stuck in Hell, I got love for my brother Spells
Along this path we both needed each other's help
I paint pictures, this is a portrait
The album's 'round the corner, next year I got to fit in some tour date
We tried to start living in more ways
This is food for thought that's bringing a raw taste
I'm in the kitchen fixing a gourmet
I remember years of sweat and tears, I would stay spitting for 4 days
To make sure baked bread is here
I never fear, forget Britain, we're the best in this hemisphere
I poured out my heart blood and left it here, let me make the message clear
The time of judgement is getting near
Display my essence on this track
Still I don't even know who did the tune first
I spit nothing but facts, still blood it's like the truth hurts
In a world were dirty words can get a youth merked
I pursue and search for my place on this Earth's surface
I'm the worst person to hate so don't make a quick mistake
Before I make your whole face disintegrate
It's not a game, I ain't one of them pricks that want the fame
Around me you can't spot the same lyricists
I got a solid name 'cause of the way I operate and stay living this
This ain't Great Britishness, just straight from the soul
Of an MC with a dangerous flow
Blood I done this as ancient as Rome
But I'm still patiently waiting to blow
So what the f*ck's up now?
