can i post some more.....? sorry if everyone is totally bored of this. if you are, just don't reply and i'll leave it alone.
this one's inspired by my mates lee and matt, who are the analogue people (
www.myspace.com/analoguepeople). the words aren't actaully about them at all, i just really like their name. so i thought i better plug them a bit- they're really good breaks djs and their career is really taking off at the moment. playing synergy project on the 30th- i'll be there as their official groupie.
anyway
ANALOGUE PEOPLE
we're analogue people living digital lives
techno victims of the harder style
new things come at you with an awful regularity
we're rushing headlong towards the singularity
neural networks controlling your focus
people we know, how do they know us?
cos we're analogue people living digital lives
chips in our brains, stars in our eyes
that's all i've got so far. it's taking shape in my head though, im just thinking really carefully about this one. perhaps you can tell- more long words.
i heard a really really good hip hop tune the other day. it's totally inspiring. my housemate came in raving about this tune saying 'you have to listen to this it is the greatest thing ever!!!' and he was right. it's 'free' by phi life cypher. go and listen to it now on their myspace if you don't know it.

and i've re-written the one about school- well it starts off about school and ends up in some mad rant. i think its better towards the end though, what do you think?
SCHOOL
I would write it in a letter now i'm doing so much better
I was a fool
in school not cool didn't ever even break the rules
but now things are different and I'm a different me
not georgia any more, Analytik MC
some of the boys you were alright actually
but the girls I want to hurt for what you did to me
and Lakshmi but don't be
afraid I'm not a violent bitch
hiphop is fantasy, scratching an itch
Lakshmi's in London now, working for the beeb
I just wanted to say this, I wanted you to see
you will never get me down again no not this time
cos I rhyme
and I wanted you to know that I think you're slime
you never made the effort when I was sitting there
i'd just stare and despair the way that none of you would ever talk to me
thoughts of rejection wouldn't let me be
but I'm free
not georgia any more, Analytik MC
back then
i was putting too much effort into teachers liking me
but it's freinds that you need to avoid PTSD
sure i got good grades but my life was shit
I wish I'd taken some pills and just said fuck it
So now I'm mashing up my brain but I feel no strain or drain
Cos what use is a big brain if it don't bring you happiness
I'd sooner be thick and happy, this I must confess
for no stress
But don't freak out Mum I was just being silly
cos I like to be silly sometimes when I rhyme, it's fine
but some people do get fucking wound up
and I wish they would just shut the fuck up
cos I'm just fucking about you know none of it is serious
I spent too much of my life being too serious
But now I'm free
Not georgia any more, Analytik MC
Cos I'm free
free from the lies, free from hypocrisy
free from you and your pisshead aristocracy
free from the man, free from consumerism
free from your smart shoes and your fake democracy
So this is me now I'm a different person
If you were to meet me now you would get a shock mun
Cos this is Analytik MC doing parties with the DSC and my man Charlie
So fuck you and one day I will piss on your grave
Raveoltion's on the way, we're goin to have a rave
one that will wake the earth, and build a new society
one that will break the hate, and dance us into unity
where the drugs are free and the music never ends
where all the haters will make up and become friends
but it won't be so good for people like you
ones like you no they won't make it through
the bad times that are coming for which we are prepared
but your heads are in the sand and you are not scared
you're still driving your big cars and eating your steak
but you might just be the straw to break
the camel's back that is the carrying capacity of our planet
your consumerist ways are one day going to wreck it
but we have our eyes open and we're staring at the future
a future that's bleak but for you it will be torture
we can survive without electric cookers
and plasma tv's and nights out in Hookers
but what will become of you without your designer shades?
without posessions to define you your personality fades
without your central heating do you know how to keep warm
do you realise you should have been working on a farm
learning to be self sufficient, that's the way to survive
us party heads we know this, and we'll stay alive
when the time comes we'll all head for the hills
we have the solution to all society's ills
but they don't want to know, so we'll keep it for ourselves.
Drugs can fuck you up, but they can also help you
Straight-heads take notice, we're only trying to save you
But if you'd rather keep on just listening to Britney
Getting pissed up and hurling some abuse at me
For looking a bit different and having some style
Well maybe we should just leave you to die.
