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 »

Play with fire, fire
Play with fire, let it rip
Play with fire, fire
Play with fire, let it burn

Play with fire, fire
Play with fire, let it rip
Play with fire, fire
Play with fire, let it burn

Play with fire, fire
Play with fire, let it rip
Play with fire, fire
Play with fire, let it burn

Play with fire, fire
Play with fire, let it rip
Play with fire, fire
(I'm hypersensitive)

"Soft lad, stop acting like a bitch"
I wish I pressed skip, everything is negative
It gets hectic
Stressing if you're from the place I live
They couldn't catch my drift with your nose in my business
Nail on the head, I make it click
A chain's only as strong as its links
That's why I gotta box from squints
And the coke makes the cats 
Look like they're Jar Jar Binks (Jar Jar)
Top it off with a wink

That's the icing on the cake
The cherry on the top
My bike ain't got no brakes
That's why I never stop (stop)
I say it to your face
Cah I don't give a f*ck
Name a time and a place
Getting brave, you dug your grave (yeah)
I'm the next best thing since electric
It is what I said it is
And that's expensive
Remember I didn't have a flint
Skint, tryna get it
Setting fire with my lighter
I did it ambidextrous

Play with fire, fire
Play with fire, let it rip
Play with fire, fire
Play with fire, let it burn

Play with fire, fire
Play with fire, let it rip
Play with fire, fire
Play with fire, let it burn

Full moon
Put me in a corner, have me swinging with a pool cue
I do this for them broke yutes
No money in the lunch room
My brother's in the magistrates
All they know is slanging weight (free 'em)
And banging 'til their knuckles break (free 'em, oh)
Mothers say, "For Pete's sake"
If we could only keep Pete safe
Pete's up the street with heat tryna bleed grapes
Some people can't see straight, need to find direction
If I clock an interception, Cruyff Turn, watch your knees break

Play with fire, fire
Play with fire, let it rip
Play with fire, fire
Play with fire, let it burn

Play with fire, fire
Play with fire, let it rip
Play with fire, fire
Play with fire, let it burn

Sometimes I feel like I've got my head in a blender (small talk)
Compromising with too many empty promises (I hate the internet)
If you love the world for its flaws you will never be disappointed (honestly, honestly)
You're my everything and I have no words (I fucking hate you)
(Just be sincere, be honest man)
I just wanna make you proud (sometimes I hate myself, I fucking hate you)
(Some days I feel)
Do what you wanna do and not what's expected of you (I am, I promise, I love you)
If anyone's seen sleep, tell him I miss him dearly
I'm happy being the fucking flower boy (I just wanna be in the pub with my boys)
Don't let your mattress swallow you, wallowing
Thinking what you gonna do or gotta do (f*ck all these expectations)
My heart and mind are at war
And my soul's out here playing piggy in the middle (don't be scared to be yourself)
Why do I feel like I'm holding the short straw?
