Ill Literature is the third release from the south-west based hip hop crew known as The Scribes. The album features The Scribes usual members but has also had a number of outside associates help out on certain tracks, this has brought in a range of different influences and styles resulting in what has to be one of the best albums this year.
The album features a total of 10 tracks, each of these tracks have been perfected; each with their individual style, range of influences and great variety of subject matter. Shaun Amos delivers heartfelt poetry on every track over some seriously dope beats mixed with some guitar licks and some scratching by Lacey. Normally we would highlight some of our favourite tracks off the album but it's near impossible to do, check out their tracks below accompanied with the lyrics!
Heavy Wait Lyrics
- Ladies and gentleman you're standing on the brink/
- Of something really quite tremendous and it's never what you think/
- So heavyweight I sink into this pool of mediocrity/
- But still that's not stopping me/ No fucking thing is stopping me/
- It's obvious/ Your obstacles kept blocking up my opticals/
- With oracles of bad things yet to come/ And now we've lost it all/
- So run around in circles whilst I dance around in octagons/
- And keep on drawing holograms/ I'm here to pick the locks in 'em/
- Spits/ I've heard a lot of them it's not even a competition/
- Listen to my lyricism see how clear it is I glisten/
- Fuck a rhythm/ Like I didn't begin living in this system/
- With a vision of a different way of living/ Pray I didn't/
- Become one with the sons of the same old shit/
- My heart beats till my rib cage skips/ And that's it/
- My muse abuses me usually musically/
- But it amuses me/ I'm not the man I used to be/
- You're all just waiting/
- To find the meaning in your lives/
- All your waiting/
- To find life got left behind/
- Gents and lady folk it's clear I've got a way with flows/
- And blazing shows amazing those faking foes/ Crazy dope/
- That may be so but it really doesn't save me so/
- I'm on stage with a vacant groan and clearly quite some way to go/
- Save my soul 'cause this rap game doesn't/
- I'm back stage grave face and on stage buzzing/
- My words have love in but that's simply not enough for me/
- To keep life lovely when shit gets ugly/
- Buckle my boots while stuck in a loop/
- A fucking recluse in love with nothing but truth/
- Back in the booth/ Tracks get smashed till I'm loose/
- These words are my world/ The only thing I lack is the proof/
- Turn my back on this game/ Attack of the same/
- I walk away numb just to come back again/
- And that's a shame/ Mask the pain/ Each rap's a chain/
- Each track's a cage/ I have to change/
- You're all just waiting/
- To find the meaning in your lives/
- All your waiting/
- To find life got left behind/
