Witness (1 Hope) - Roots Manuva

Taskmaster burst the bionic zit-splitter

Breakneck speeds we drown ten pints of bitter

We lean all day and some say that ain't productive

Could that depend upon the demon that you're stuck with

Cause right now, I see clearer than most

I sit here contented with this cheese on toast

I feel the pain of a third world famine

Segue, we count them blessings and keep jamming

Tis him - scumbag, scum of the earth, his worth was nil

Until he gained the skill of tongues

From fifteen years young straight to my greyback self

I stay top shelf material, jerk chicken, jerk fish

Breakaway slave, bliss

Generate Gs and then we stash 'em in the Swiss

Fools can't see this, audio pistols

A fistful of hip hop dons, I progression in the flesh

Esoteric quotes, most frightening

Duppy took a hold of my hand while I was writing

Let go me ting, duppy, let go me hand

I summon up the power of Banana Klan

The Cruffiton liveth

One hope, one quest

Swigging that deep root juice, now we deh pon a boost

Set them spirit dem loose, go head go slash up the noose

With conclusive proof about the truth, the right

Cause whether we hitch hike or push bike or travel kind of trash

Manifest that with wholesome roots rap

Manifest that, yeah!

I do my zing way, ain't nothing else I know

Gone up in the life with this here rag-and-bone flow

Squeeze the pain from my belly and set my soul free

Travel over ocean, land and sea

Face nuff stress and difficulty

Flung back from the brink, gwan in kinda stink

We don't give a frig about what dem fools think

Frig your network, our dett work will speak for itself

Proof of the trophy and the champion belt

Come sun, come rain, come hailstone pelt

Bwana see me with some old time shit

Let the whole world know we's on some off-key tip

Mega-manic when time the pressure start lick

By the hook or by the crook, by the poop or by the kick

He's sickly cryptic, spitting the code

And most proud to present that Cruffiton mode

And it shows that the bro's done seen a few sleights

Life throws scenarios, reality bites

We in collision with the beast

Lost we religion now we can't get no peace

Idiot weakhearts want fe take I for chief

Stoop to their level and we plotting cold grief

But we should know that discipline maketh the geez

Separation of the DAT from the rap, that's a must

Proceed set speed with the Cruffiton touch

Proceed set speed..Cruffiton, y'all

Witness the fitness

The Cruffiton liveth

One hope, one quest
