Slowthai

Tyron Kaymone Frampton (born 18 December 1994), better known by his stage name Slowthai (stylised in lowercase), is a British rapper. Raised in Northampton, he rose to popularity in 2019 for his gritty and rough instrumentals and raw, politically charged lyrics, especially around Brexit and Theresa May's tenure as British prime minister. Slowthai placed fourth in the BBC Sound of 2019 and followed up in the same year with his debut studio album, Nothing Great About Britain. The album was nominated for the Mercury Prize; at Slowthai's 2019 Mercury Prize ceremony performance, he held a fake severed head of British prime minister Boris Johnson on stage, prompting controversy. more »

Toy soldiers in lines fall like dominoes
One man's trash is cash, for some it's liquid gold
Said that you love me, you make me feel ugly
You said that you love me, but you make me feel ugly

Tv screens, adverts, and the grown men
Crying like infants for no reason
People make mountains out of mud hills
Boys with their toys and flexing their muscles

U-G-L-Y, U-G-L-Y
U-G-L-Y, U-G-L-Y
U-G-L-Y

U-G-L-Y, U-G-L-Y
U-G-L-Y, U-G-L-Y
U-G-L-Y

When pigment's a depiction of class
When your body has to be a wine glass
You drop your guard, you realize it's hard, it's ugly
Loving is brittle, plastic but soft in the middle, the same as Skittles
When vultures perch with a piercing grin
Your boss won't f*ck off and you're on the brink
The rent is due and you're overspent
The world is ugly (he world is ugly)
The world is ugly, the world is ugly
(The world)

U-G-L-Y, U-G-L-Y

I'm sick of toying with a broken idea (sick of it)
I'm sick of thinking there's a reason I'm here
We're just puppets in a simulation (just puppets)
We're just puppets in a simulation
With a pipe dream like a pipe bomb in the 80s (boom)
White screen, being brainwashed to a regime
Stuck getting lead like we're dogs out the kennel
All this trauma in the name of a medal

U-G-L-Y, U-G-L-Y

You will notice when I'm not around
Ten minutes too late to say you're sorry (I'm sorry)
At first they love you then they're stubbing you out
We kill each other for some juice and a bit of clout
In progress we test man-made devices
Getting tired of migrants, the only ones trying
You will stare in admiration
You will stop what you're doing
Cut the tension with a butter knife
You are not in control
The moment the world stands still
(The moment the world stands still, stands still, it stops)
You are not in control the moment the world stands still
You are not in control, you are not in control
You are not in control
(The moment, the moment the world stands still, you are not in control)

U-G-L-Y, U-G-L-Y
U-G-L-Y, U-G-L-Y (right, lose yourself)
U-G-L-Y (right, lose yourself)
(Lose yourself)
L-Y
L-Y
Ugly
Hear this
The most beautiful people do the ugliest things
