Can't Tek No More Lyrics


(*Prod. by Shy FX)
[** w/ Shy FX:]"Can't tek no more of the... We can't tek no more of the... "
Kids on the road start young these days
Walk street with a knife [? ] these days
No fun these days, do dirt, end up on the run these days
Whole lot of pain, suffering, and badness, whole lot of madness, too many grieving mothers and sadness
It ain't safe in the manor no more, take one fool step and you could get bored
Kids caught up in the hype and the nonsense, do what they here in the songs and the TV, pickin up [? ],
Makin up fuss for the sake of money, cause it look so easy, but they don't understand,
They can't comprehend, cause they're too caught up trying to rep their ends, for the reputation,
And pass it on to the next generation.
"Can't tek no more of the... We can't tek no more of the... "
We're headin' in to a recession, no "BACS? ", no [? ], no mortgages, one step away from a depression, can't even work out the cause of it, but everybody gotta forfeit, wanna buy a house but they just can't afford it, and it's so unfortnate
Money lenders are extortionate, so you gotta move in with your mates or mum, ain't gotta place of your own, now your glum, feeling dumb, it's a crowded house and you can't have fun cause when you have sex they can hear when you cum
Gotta pay council tax and it kills, not to mention the rent and bills, and you hate how it feels, until... you go to the pub and you pop some pills.
"Can't tek no more of the... We can't tek no more of the... "
Look around everywhere is a crisis, pure extortion at petrol prices, cost of living is already large and they hit you with a congestion charge, [? ] burning, just to drive into town I'm hurting, hole in my pocket and my wallet is burning, but I fork out from the money I'm earning, stomach is turning, if I don't pay on the day, gotta pay

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Dylan Mills, known professionally as Dizzee Rascal (born November 1, 1985), is a grime solo artist, formerly a Roll Deep crew member, who emerged from the UK Garage music scene. His music was a blend of garage MCing, conventional rap, grime and ragga, with some more eclectic samples.

Dizzee began MCing on pirate radio and at raves at fifteen, but since his mainstream success he has distanced himself from the fledgling scene. Rascal grew up in the East End of London in south Bow in a council estate, raised by his single mother, a Ghanaian immigrant. Little is known about his father, though it is thought that he died when Mills was two. He attributes his musical development to a school teacher who allowed him to skip regular classes and spend time working on music on the school computers.

His music is an eclectic mixture of garage and hip-hop beats with an extremely broad palette of influences, ranging from metal guitars to found sounds, drill and bass synth lines, eclectic samples and even Japanese court music. His vocal performance is also distinctive, he uses a fast version of rapping (known as 'spitting') which blends elements from garage MCing, conventional rap, grime and ragga.

Dizzee Rascal has numerous rivals within the Grime scene, mainly from the Bow, East London area. A notable rival of Dizzee Rascal is Crazy Titch who produced and recorded a diss called "Just An Arsehole" which used the backing track of Dizzee's record of "Jus A Rascal".

Dizzee Rascal has had international endorsements deals with urban brand Ecko and designed his own shoe with Nike. He has also worked with cross genre artist, Beck, on a remix of the song Hell Yes.

He released his first album in 2003, which was called Boy in da Corner. His second album Showtime was then later released in 2004. His third effort, Maths and English was released in 2007. He experienced commercial success in 2008 when Dance Wiv Me reached the number one spot in the UK charts.
