Killa Joul:
Yes it's the return of the realness
witness the relapse of my hip hop illness
30 odd years of blood sweat and tears
distilled and injected in to all of your ears
no fears of ring rust I a'int punch drunk
a rumble in the jungle my return could be triumphant
Killa Joul break neck inspect I intellect
def dialect destroying decks like a dalek
(H-A-R-D-C-O-R-E)
2014 we're coming rough like kamakazis
(The B the R the I the T the I the S the H)
tells you how we're coming with the beats and breaks
I got the vibes the culture mate back to basics
blowing out the water all you wanna be aces
mics implode I bury bodies like the mob
for the love of god don't send a boy to do a mans job.
DJ Kraze One:
I m gonna take you back in time now to the early 90s
Met paranoia MC with a crew called DBD
I was writing graffiti with a crew called UCP
(The Undercover Prophecy) on the outskirts of Millton Keynes
Is where it started for me met killa Joul the MC
we done some demos and live shows the local community
Embraced us instantly vocally and lyrically
(Check 1-2-3) Doin something differently
From the rest no stress just rapping in our own accents
Talking everyday life no fairy tales or nonsense
down around town the word was hip hop
(and that's non stop) but now that's all rapped up
as for me I never stop every rapper wanna battle
but I'm lurking in the shadows when I strike is like a crocodile
unique is my profile style is what we drop
(We're back on top) dont send a boy to do a mans job
Paranoia MC:
You wanna do a mans job no that's not for you
I've been in this game for years and boy I've stayed true
like Kraze and Jouls I never broke through
but that don't matter cos we still do what we do
we keep on trying trying to break through
the hip hop heads all mans all crew
it's you I'm talking to you
you try to rhyme but just can't follow through
(We are) the real deal boys we appeal
listen to our skills man how do you feel
you wanna test you really wanna battle
I'm the cowboy I heard you up like cattle
this is how a mans job is done
I'm still on the mic reppin since I was young
TE the posse the true elementals
Pass me the paper and pass me the pencils.

DJ Kraze One:
Intro
Paranoia MC:
Damn, I'm back again
I thought it was time to connect my paper back with the pen
and drop some flow to fill those empty holes
some hard flows that will take over your souls
you people know how I'm coming
wack MCs are running cos Para is gunning
to educate manipulate plus devastate
fornicate a verse you'll end up in a hirst
hip hop of a hardcore nature
you fake perpetrators that's why I hate ya
I'm the one who's keeping it real
do I say anymore (nah you know the deal)
I've been in this game for 20 years plus
the mic's in my hand cos the mic's all I trust
you think I'm joking my style is so smoking
I be so raw and your style is so broken
Chorus:
All or none and one for all
together as one we're gonna stand tall
we stand tall we're not gonna fall
now check out our sound bring on the mic brawl
All or none and one for all
together as one we're gonna stand tall
we stand tall we're not gonna fall
now check out our sound bring on the mic brawl
DJ Kraze One:
I'm quick to hit a hypocrite with knowledge in a lyric
sending rappers to the toilet if there talking to much shit
a'int to benefit frauds get no applause
took a pause for the cause and reconnected with the source
(What's that) not a rapper but a lyricist
emerge from the abyss dropping broken English on this
Truth sayer mic slayer
not a kidder or a player just wise to the culture
that is hip hop beats drop spots are rocked
some other rappers went pop but that's a one stop shop
that's now sold out raw pride unified
can't hide what's inside disguise is not wise
(why's that) cos we never severed ties
with the underground rhythms bonafied
long time been in the shadows but now stepping to the light
(Hold tight) to fight for what's right.
Chorus
Scratch break
Killa Joul:
Drop the mic kid cos the shit could be hazardous
Killa Joul come again I'm on the rise like Lazarus
Gold caliber riding lyrics like a chariot
knights of the old school clean like Excalibur
very necessary cos your lyrics are secondary
I got 20 years mate but you don't have any
experience and you can dance to this
with a flick of the wrist cuts tight like a clenched fist
doing damage cos the beats is pretty savage
devastate the sample rate and get set to annihilate
as we infiltrate your homes and your business
represent the underground with hip hop that is British
all or none yeh and one for all
and when it's a brawl you know it's winner takes all
and this 3 man crew is coming straight for you
Paranoia Kraze One and your man Killa Joul.
Chorus:

Killa Joul:
There's a girl on the corner crying is she alone
manically bashing the digits upon her mobile phone
is she from a bad place and coming from a broken home
a pound to a penny everybody's seen enough of those
It a'int hard to see how it's a downward spiral
every day is hard and it's a battle for survival
behind those doors there's gonna be another world
of abuse misuse another number and another girl
and the big bad world that's right up on your doorstep
rubbish in the ally and the houses that are derelict
it's imperative you always keep looking behind
a piss head he wants to rob you blind to buy some wine
smash the bottle on the ground so kids playing in the park
get bloody finger prints cos there cut to ribbons on the shards
homeless people are screaming murders in the dark
while the junkies in the gutter looking up at the stars.
Chorus:
It’s where we’re livin’ On the corner snakes at every angle
where we’re livin' Always drama in the houses of the council
where we’re livin' Urban landscapes draped in poverty
it’s where we’re livin’ Maybe one day we’ll be free
It’s where we’re livin’ On the corner snakes at every angle
where we’re livin' Always drama in the houses of the council
where we’re livin' Urban landscapes draped in poverty
It’s where we’re livin’ Maybe one day we’ll be free.
DJ Kraze One:
Stepping out is like a battle field again I feel the rain
on my face and on my body overflowing from the drain
forming constant puddles mixed with other chemicals
from the dumped rubbish bags furniture and waste materials
that leaking oils so nothing grows in the soils
hear the cries of the alley cats scrapping in the shadows
houses of the council tightly packed in the terraces
at the Broken garages vandalised by the kids
is a burnt out car disassembled by the jippos
who routinely make patrols on the lookout for scrap metal
as the cold winds blow the broken street light starts to flicker
in the distance theirs a figure by the shelter drinking beer
from a can in his hand looks at me and then the around
Makes intimidating sounds with my face I make a frown
so he looks back to ground before retreating to the shelter
(F****** tosser) waiting for someone else to bother
Break:
DJ Kraze One:
So I proceed again unfazed as its just another drunken
down and out from the road who for a second had of mistaken
myself for some chump who might have been intimidated
by the sight of super tennents cans so patiently he waited
for an opportunity to size me up and test my nerve
but step to close in my direction and maybe you'll meet the curb
and if you get the best of me then fair play but just be warned
the frustration of the lack of opportunity constantly is scorned
and embedded in my mind so what really have I to loose
put yourself in to my shoes and you'll leave me just to cruse
and continue on my path through the urban landscape
draped with poverty and degradation so there’s no means of escape
(only option is to soldier and prepare yourself for battle)
cos there’s snakes at every angle both the physical and mental
even on the spiritual you may be tested on beliefs
(on the streets religion thrives and is big business).
Chorus:
