summinn like this
fire like burning sun
the vermin one has come
streets get wrecked and done
it's vermin on the song
(x2)
pay you a visit with a c4 bomb
it's the creep more strong than a breed of kong
don't be a silly fucking spaced out div
I got great sounds rigged in the place now drift
dont get rattled if i touch down large
I got nuff sound bars that'll dust out marks
leave it baddy cos ya ain't that safe
when ya space get bent ya know the rodent ace
Bull in china shop, when guy gets near
It's the direct seer on the path that's clear
Hone in special with the deepened talks
As I dream up thoughts full a secret force
Lames get bullied when the bloke step through
I make progress everytime the tone gets through
Sideline fools'll get their heads blown off
I'm a serious prollem when I shred blokes drop
fire like burning sun
the vermin one has come
streets get wrecked and done
it's vermin on the song
(x2)
Push through manic like a frenzied wolf
with a septic vision that'll upset skulls
Fire it sonny i'm a destined great
with a gret big weight of electric weight
Creature cannibal it's bad news now
cos i just flew round with a huge new sound
burks get buried in the barn all week
when the gremlin speak better head off piste
It's a piledrive move see when the guy rips words
With a tight, swift serve for the sly, nit nerds
Y'ent gon' crush 'im cos ya shine int much
My mic brings shook fellas lyin' in dust
Walk off brother cos ya rap's go weak
Plus ya all in trouble when the bad bloke speak
I lift your lyrics books up and bin them
There int no men'ts fucking battling zen
fire like burning sun
the vermin one has come
streets get wrecked and done
it's vermin on the song
(x4)

Burn It

I burn it, try to counter it ya doomed
I burn it, time to douse em with the fumes
I burn it, stay home less ya wanna get schorched
Tommy Zen, I burn it til ya head rots
I burn it, try to counter it ya doomed
I burn it, time to douse em with the fumes
I burn it, stay home less ya wanna get schorched
Tommy Zen, I burn it til ya head rots
I flip things bad for troops't wanna stir shit
Hold off lame, I'm bound to fucking burn it
Twits with no regard'll get their heads hit
Tom Zen best in town ya fucking guessed it
Bulldoze over dozy mumble targets
It's ill when I move, like someone that was car sick
I trap em with the sound, mad, flash words
Expose jokers, want a bees and actors
Be honest can ya test old T?
My depth goes deep like the dead cold sea
Ya spirit int enough to withstand it
The way I serve all jerks it's like a banquet
So close it off and check when i'm piping
I bring a storm the thunder and the lightning
You don't want a let the fucking lion in
I bring the heat to outfits like i'm ironing
I burn it, try to counter it ya doomed
I burn it, time to douse em with the fumes
I burn it, stay home less ya wanna get schorched
Tommy Zen, I burn it til ya head rots
I burn it, try to counter it ya doomed
I burn it, time to douse em with the fumes
I burn it, stay home less ya wanna get schorched
Tommy Zen, I burn it til ya head rots
Spaced out nerds get burned inside my furnace
Train at school for years, you'll never learn this
Dumb dumb divs gets roasted cos they're turnips
Bones get chilled like pilsners when I surface
Their team'll never drop as commanding
I'll mek ya band disband when I put plans in
These sillies aven't got no flair
The lot goes square like the base of a chair
I bring a lot pain when I reach ya
It's standard procedure that T's gonna heat ya
Clones don't last against the slippy word play
Flakes get shook get tom brings on an earthquake
So leave it if ya thinking a testing
Shrinking ya chest in, start givin it a rest king
The spins tom drop'll knock ya to next thursday
Watch it bloke, I'm bound to fucking burn it
I burn it, try to counter it ya doomed
I burn it, time to douse em with the fumes
I burn it, stay home less ya wanna get schorched
Tommy Zen, I burn it til ya head rots
I burn it, try to counter it ya doomed
I burn it, time to douse em with the fumes
I burn it, stay home less ya wanna get schorched
Tommy Zen, I burn it til ya head rots

Simple life for my cousins and me
Simple life, that's all that I need
A simple life, where I can roam free
Like a bird flying over the sea
Freedom yeah that's an important thing
But that's not always what we're taught to think
When we got problems then we're taught to drink
I never understood or saw the link
Sometimes the system can feel like a cruel prison
With rules written to make your power forbidden
Make sure you listen to your intuition
Wether you are a logician or magician
I gotta say too just watch what you believe in
Don't subscribe to every book that you're reading
Even sensible reasoning isn't always right
I'd say don't step through the same doorway twice
Ask yourself yeh is life going well for me?
Am I playing all the cards that were dealt to me?
Do they care or are they trying to sell to me?
Cos the way they do it sometimes can be stealthily
Simple life for my cousins and me
Simple life, that's all that I need
A simple life, where I can roam free
Like a bird flying over the sea
Simple life nothing too special
So we don't have to fucking wrestle every level
Gotta settle, taking it slowly
Don't wanna have to jump around like a goalie
Stayin' lowkey, forget all the hype crap
That's the stuff't sends ya off grid n side tracked
Yeah we gotta keep the focus alive
It don't always mean ya gotta go for the prize
Loads of em try, but do they do try their best?
The clock is always ticking brother look how much time is left?
I'm not tryin'a be a super fucking hero
I just wanna let the peeps know some deep flow
Relax and watch the world go by steadily
Stay physically sharp n alright mentally
Try and hav a couple big old nights
It's tommy zen buddy simple life
Simple life for my cousins and me
Simple life, that's all that I need
A simple life, where I can roam free
Like a bird flying over the sea
Simple life for my cousins and me
Simple life, that's all that I need
A simple life, where I can roam free
Like a bird flying over the sea
Simple life for my cousins and me
Simple life, that's all that I need
A simple life, where I can roam free
Like a bird flying over the sea

I'm a hurricane storm from another plane
I'm a hurricane force with a troubled brain
I'm a hurricane power s'how i run the game
Yea the time for a hurricane's come again
I'm a hurricane
Tonight, my clouds are grey

Mind out my way

Tonight, my clouds are grey
I'm a hurricane
Mind out my way
Watch out brother cos i'm moving quick
Cos in my world right now i'm fucking losing grip
I'll twist so fast it's gonna knock you down
Get out my perimiter move off skip town
The dark grey matter got my feelings rough
My heart says nothing, my head screaming "crush"
Destruction yeh that's on my radar now
It's thunder wimme in my brave dark sound
Buildings shatter when my power gets close
I break all matter in the south west coast
There int no stoppin' this natural disaster
They tell me to slow I'll fucking go dead faster
And i'm buddies with the clouds n' sky
A thousand cry when i'm around and why
Becaause I'm colossal, full damn throttle
Hurricane rotate like it's the spin bottle
Watch out brother cos i'm moving quick
Cos in my world right now i'm fucking losing grip
I'll twist so fast it's gonna knock you down
Get out my perimiter move off skip town
The dark grey matter got my feelings rough
My heart says nothing, my head screaming "crush"
Destruction yeh that's on my radar now
It's thunder wimme in my brave dark sound
Buildings shatter when my power gets close
I break all matter in the south west coast
There int no stoppin' this natural disaster
They tell me to slow I'll fucking go dead faster
And i'm buddies with the clouds n' sky
A thousand cry when i'm around and why
Becaause I'm colossal, full damn throttle
Hurricane rotate like it's the spin bottle
I'm a hurricane
Tonight, my clouds are grey
I'm a hurricane
Mind out my way
I'm a hurricane
Tonight, my clouds are grey
I'm a hurricane
Mind out my way
I swoop up trees with my dangerous breeze
Ya see 'im coming and ya faces freeze
So run, get out, pack up your stuff
The hurricane coming and ya might get struck
Ya don't wanna get cross wi' me
That'll only escalate my ferocity
I'm dropping big rocks down on ya property
Making lights go out like pete doherty
Not havin' fun i'm just lettin' out rage
And ya can't change fate when i'm feckin' outraged
I hold the mic and perform inside the eye of the storm
I'm tryin' to warn 'em that i'm flying wi' scorn
Don't be a storm chaser, wi' this force 'a nature
In course i'll break ya, and ya walls' shake yea
I'm about to let ya know how it's done again
Tonight matthew i'm a motherfuckin' hurricane
I'm a hurricane
Tonight, my clouds are grey
I'm a hurricane
Mind out my way
I'm a hurricane
Tonight, my clouds are grey
I'm a hurricane
Mind out my way

Vapourizer
03:30
|
|||
I'm the vapourizer, and I came to wipe ya
Out the picture, I erase a rhymer
I'm the vapourizer, I turn emcees to dust
And make the beat combust when I creep n' crush
I'm the vapourizer, and I came to wipe ya
Out the picture, I erase a rhymer
I'm the vapourizer, I turn emcees to dust
And make the beat combust when I creep n' crush
Pull down your lyric page when in town
Offending clowns when the zen flip sounds
My dream ain't happen so i'm pissed off big
And my sting drop divs and it brings twots rid
Losers all of em I don't care 'tall
Provoke then maul, brekkin all dem walls
These greedy pillocks keep me riled all week
And their style all meek, s'why I'm fryin' all cheaps
They thought process is like a horrible mess
And they all flow less so I support no plebs
The work it slower than a wounded ox
A few 'them drop a proper dufus shop
I'll bend them dickies til their brains get burned
Y'ent gonna touch 'im cos ya ain't yet learned
Mentally they're dead and i'm centuries ahead
End a geek and then I fucking end a geek again
I'm the vapourizer, and I came to wipe ya
Out the picture, I erase a rhymer
I'm the vapourizer, I turn emcees to dust
And make the beat combust when I creep n' crush
I'm the vapourizer, and I came to wipe ya
Out the picture, I erase a rhymer
I'm the vapourizer, I turn emcees to dust
And make the beat combust when I creep n' crush
Schoolboy rhymers get they feelings torched
Cos they speech is forced and they keep bein dorks
My flames turn all into pieces of ash
Cos i'm sharp like pieces of glass
These jerk guys weren't wise
Spurt lies on the track and i'm cursing ya life
They ain't drop mega and they think they's it
And these gimps says shit that only div fakes spit
I have abundant supplies, leave ya under the ice
Better run for ya lives cos i'll rupture and slice
Basic emcees, they ain't pull no ace from their sleeves
I aim and I squeeze leaving lamers deceased
Bulldoze tossers with the sharpened wit
Then I light up their 'ouses on some arson shit
They can't get lad because I'm too quick brainwise
I don't play nice, fake guys get vapourised
I'm the vapourizer, and I came to wipe ya
Out the picture, I erase a rhymer
I'm the vapourizer, I turn emcees to dust
And make the beat combust when I creep n' crush
I'm the vapourizer, and I came to wipe ya
Out the picture, I erase a rhymer
I'm the vapourizer, I turn emcees to dust
And make the beat combust when I creep n' crush

Mystic Sea
03:40
|

Let us journey to msytic sea
Where ideas and philosophies flow like poetry
A place to embrace the unknown mystery
And transcend the bounds of history
(x2)
Let your mind unwind, amidst the starry sky, we find
A universe that's all entwined
A legendary odyssey of heart and soul
A poetic substance that sings of the universe's whole
The mystic's heart is grace that's what they can't shake
There's a beacon in the darkened space
A light that guides us there to help us on our way
So we can find the secrets of the night and day
The quest for knowlege and wisdom never ending
It's a mysterious journey never ending
A spiral path that leads us through the reaches
To the mystic's realm a place for seekers
Let us open up our hearts and minds
Leaving doubts and fears discarded, left behind
And beyond the veil of what we see
Lies a elegant realm of mystic poetry
Let us journey to msytic sea
Where ideas and philosophies flow like poetry
A place to embrace the unknown mystery
And transcend the bounds of history
(x2)
The path we find our selves treading on is one of old
Paved by the ancients sages and ones that are bold
And it's a trail of truth and self-discovery
A poetical journey of mind alchemy
Ya know the quest for truth is never over
There's mountains of it the feel it getting closer
Ya know the msystic's words are like spell
Yeah, a certain magic that can make us well
The mystic's call always gonna be one of love
See it's a call from realms that lie above
A spark that burns without a name
A little flame that takes away the pain
To find the wisdom that we seek
Let us rise high above the dangers of defeat
To glimpse the truth that lives and lies within
And find the peace that lies therein, tommy zen
Let us journey to msytic sea
Where ideas and philosophies flow like poetry
A place to embrace the unknown mystery
And transcend the bounds of history
(x2)

Don't Chance It
03:03

Don't chance it silly it's a game that I bomb
Don't chance it silly that's the name of the song
Don't chance it silly, when arranging a song
Don't chance it silly cos you're brain isn't strong
Don't chance it silly i'm a thunderous storm
Don't chance it silly cos ya underperform
Don't chance it silly, cos ur destined to lose
Don't chance it silly, or you'll definitely be juiced
Tase it sonny, i'm expending the art
I got tries still at me but i'm sending 'em back
Y'ent seen this un' yet it's miracle zaps
Mystical tracks and missiles hittin ya sinapse
What's the synopsis, top spits, watch this
Ya can't stop the phantom from dropping the toxins
It's summin' like a nuclear war
except when old lad's in e fucking ruin it more
Pansy rappers that are basic and slow
All get counter struck when they arranging a flow
Ya see I hit 'em yea before they create
I warp 'em and shake using the law of the snakes
Those that tackle it are in for a shock
It's underground bad venom that I bring to the top
Injure ya flock for singing miserable pop
I sting them and stop them with biligerent drops
Don't chance it silly it's a game that I bomb
Don't chance it silly that's the name of the song
Don't chance it silly, when arranging a song
Don't chance it silly cos you're brain isn't strong
Don't chance it silly i'm a thunderous storm
Don't chance it silly cos ya underperform
Don't chance it silly, cos ur destined to lose
Don't chance it silly, or you'll definitely be juiced
It's over now before it's even begun
I'll leave 'em weakened when I sneak and then stun
Pieces of 'em will be scattered around
Flatten ya sound I leave it battered and drowned
I blitz them juniors that are giving it flake
It's poison for 'em when they're bit from a snake
They walk too obvious and talk with deceit
I haunt with mystique stay in the corner of ya street
They get all hyper and they spit overkeen
But i'm a blow to ya self esteem when on the scene
It's curtains for ya style and ya look
Ya just a cover i'm a library of books
I bend all rythmns with a twist of disease
The first rule sonny never listen to geeks
I trap with the sharp metal, they can't settle
Shut ya down every vessell when I meddle
Don't chance it silly it's a game that I bomb
Don't chance it silly that's the name of the song
Don't chance it silly, when arranging a song
Don't chance it silly cos you're brain isn't strong
Don't chance it silly i'm a thunderous storm
Don't chance it silly cos ya underperform
Don't chance it silly, cos ur destined to lose
Don't chance it silly, or you'll definitely be juiced
