If you’re training that hard you shouldn’t even be able to communicate…
You should be that out of breath and sweating and…
(Addverse)
Focused
(Kurt)
Yeah yeah
(Guy)
I sweat me

If there's time and a place, there's a place and a time/
If there's time and a place, there's a place and a time/
If there's time and a place, there's a place and a time/
And here’s the place and the time, here’s the place and the time//
(JND)
And it's hotter than a mother so, pass the cold brew/
No pantry warm bubbles, grab my old shoes/
Playin’ frisbee in the park, have a kickabout/
Any chumps wanna stay indoors gotta kick em out/
See this weather doesn't stick around forever, no/
Enjoy it while it lasts, that’s the message,
(ExP)
Tell ‘em bro/
(JND)
I got a bag of cans, so if you want a Stella say/
Life is good whatever place when the Sun is round your way/
You see housed estates raving like there’s no tomorrow/
And middle classers do the same without the cops that follow/
In Bradford, Bassline's the soundtrack to summer here/
And if you aren't bumping that, they look as if you're chuffin' weird/
Gimme some hip-hop to vibe with on a summer’s day/
Appreciate the sunny haze, even if I'm cookin' mate/
Cos it doesn't half love to rain in Northern England/
So don't you dare moan about it, just soak it in love//
If there's time and a place, there's a place and a time/
If there's time and a place, there's a place and a time/
If there's time and a place, there's a place and a time/
And here’s the place and the time, here’s the place and the time//
(ExP)
Flame Flame gristle with a bone to pick/
A vocalist with a barbecue and loads of ribs/
Six Heinekens int fridge, tryna toke a spliff/
Like I’m 21 again and my lungs don’t exist/
I was young back then, I wanted a big career/
As a lyricist you hear that’ll never disappear/
But I lived a bit, it’s clear - prefer my privacy and peers/
Just some lyrics and some beers - and burgers in a chiminea/
Me and the missus clinking cheers/
Thinking that it’s weird, we’re lucky just to live upon this sphere/
Pleased as the punch we drink for every minute that we’re here/
Doing nowt, listening to birds singing that are near/
Course the state of living is severe/
Media and politicians are giving us the fear/
But I didn’t shed a tear, for every chicken that I seared/
On my grill, over the coals, I had for dinner…which is weird/
Cos they existed to be reared and quickly became speared/
On a skewer with some marinade till the juice was crystal clear/
We worry ‘bout the little things, big things grind the gears/
But keep killing animals to grill ‘em at this time of year//
(BBC reporter)
It has already been an exceptional summer
But today temperatures soared higher than ever before
Each passing day of this heatwave has made record temperatures more likely
And it happened this afternoon
(Addverse)
Give me a blue sky with no clouds anytime/
I never do the rain dance even when it's very dry/
Man I can bask in the heat like a gecko I/
Love the smell of sun cream when temperatures are getting high/
So don't forget to apply the factor 25/
A hat to cool your head and sunnies to protect your eyes/
And my drink aint any size, mine’s a pint/
Unless you're bringing sunshine in which case I'll find a pipe/
Best believe the hype, summertime is where it's at/
I love to see the girls wearing clothes that are barely that/
And get ‘em staring back, except they never do/
If you said I never work out then I guess it's true/
They say I need to spend a week down muscle beach/
Flexing the upper dorsumus then I'll get to peak/
But as for that I switch off like the television/
Rather spend my time chillin’ sitting on the jetty fishing//
(JND)
If there's time and a place, there's a place and a time/
If there's time and a place, there's a place and a time/
If there's time and a place, there's a place and a time/
And here’s the place and the time, here’s the place and the time//

Easily the most interesting and lyrically impressive new hip hop record I’ve heard for years. Had me grooving, smiling, agreeing with almost every word and brought a tear to my eye. My wife loves it and she won’t usually even have hip hop on. Gets better with every listen, I’m still discovering new little pearls in it. Great set of beats on it too. Top work mate.
Got to go back to the first album and discover that now. filauge
