lyrics

(ExP)
Flame Grillin' since 2 thousand and summat/
Killin' it off, you didn't know? then you're about to discover/
Now here'’s another/
Album for you since our proud introduction/
Before the studio we put our lyrics down in a cupboard/
But...…JND and his Dad came round for a cuppa/
And converted my garage to DubWhy and a mountain of rubble/
And it’'s sounding so good, you come round in the summer/
We got the doors open, beats blazing, and we'’re shoutin' and cussin'/
And callin' it cyphering
If you were from West Yorkshire I would always invite you in/
But times have changed, be a while till Mr Nice again/
…There'’s only so much urine on the toilet floor you can wipe and then/
I had to shut the door, and concentrate on something more/
The reaction to the debut album’'s nothing that I could have saw/
Could have seen, could have anticipated/
Gotta make sure we spread to different places and preach the hip-hop basics/
Step one, keep it real, stop faking/
Step two, sick beats, no 808s and/
Step three, dig crates, takes patience for dope breaks/
A whole day on the same beat’'s not wasted/
Shouts to crate diggers in the charity shops/
Or your sampled vinyl borrowed from Granny and Pops/
You may end up with a copy of Abba a lot/
But there'’ll always be a gem that you’'ll happily chop…...what//

(Chorus)
…It takes time to perfect the art/
Nobody'’s perfect we’'re not trying to suggest we are/
Don'’t take anyone’'s lead unless it’'s XLR/
It’'s time to bin the old, get a fresher start/
…It takes time to perfect the art/
Nobody'’s perfect we’'re not trying to suggest we are/
Don'’t take anyone’'s lead unless it’'s XLR/
Stop complaining and just make a fresher start//

(JND)
A fresher start, on some first month of Uni tip /
Fresher than your Nan's best tulips or petunias /
Spring cleaning out your potty mouths with exuberance /
We'll show you how it should be done and dusted in the truest sense /

Of the words, what I'm meaning is I'm Mr Muscle /
Compared to me you some weaker cats too quick to buckle /
A different hustle, while slinging pins to prick your bubble /
I'm taking shots at you from space aboard the distant Hubble /

Yeah..... you been warned, keep off the grass /
I'll turn the coolest hipster to a boxing bag /
Mad Fresh, I keep a toxic mask handy, why? /
Coz I'm tired of your stink filling up my alveoli /

Force the rhyme; I know I mispronounced it /
Say something, I'll come round and kick your house in /
I couldn't care less if Fabreze was your sponsor /
Or you passed the Daz challenge whilst stood in your boxers /
You bought twenty year ago from Managrove /

Y'still aren't passing go /
Not on my watch like Casio /
I'm fresher than a Winter's day in your birthday suit /
These words are proof, mess with me and it's certain doom //

(Chorus)
…It takes time to perfect the art/
Nobody'’s perfect we’'re not trying to suggest we are/
Don'’t take anyone’'s lead unless it’'s XLR/
It’'s time to bin the old, get a fresher start//

(Addverse)
I moved away just to try make a change, switch lanes and throw dice for different games/
Kind of like the old saying no pain no gain, miss my family and friends but needed to break the chains/
I know you think I'm strange and I probably am, I know there's many of you thinking there's a problem with Dan/
But honestly, damn, I've never felt as trapped as I did, was disappointed with my life and the promises as a kid/
A fresher start cos a change is as good as a rest/
Deep breaths, feel blessed, love life, and fear less, clear chest, clean conscience and new intentions/
I'm living out my dreams with a true perception/ cos my old school moves seemed to lose the lessons, sitting in detention,
tensed up and venting/
Feel the negativity entering my resemblance, now I'm inventing power to devour my sentence/
So...turn the page the great escape/
Learn a new way to make what you yearn to take/
Nothing's for certain, some say so straight is the method, but you never cut corners to shave off the seconds//
Cos

(Chorus)
…It takes time to perfect the art/
Nobody'’s perfect we’'re not trying to suggest we are/
Don'’t take anyone’'s lead unless it’'s XLR/
It’'s time to bin the old, get a fresher start/
…It takes time to perfect the art/
Nobody'’s perfect we’'re not trying to suggest we are/
Don'’t take anyone’'s lead unless it’'s XLR/
Stop complaining and just make a fresher start//
