Detox Lyrics


Every day man turn up to the max
Don't know how to relax
Went to the hills tryna kick back
Still I wanna tweet and chat
Woke up this morning, said I quit smoking
Now I just bought me a pack
'Cause every day man turn up to the max
Don't know how to relaxPass me the weed, pass me a drink
Pass me a pill
Got cold feet and I can't sit still
Do what I want 'cause I got no chill
Yeah, you know the deal cuh man are true raver
I've been on more waves than a sailor
Man a turn up all over the radar
They know about Short Man in Jamaica
Care about now, don't care about later
But that's just the way that I live
Anywhere that I go, man are blazing a spliff

Bouncers are like "man are taking the piss"
Ace Hotel, know what it is
Turning down is a myth
Call me the turn up king
There's not a place that I won't turn up in14 when I started smoking bud
Ever since way back then
See that buzz? Yeah, man are tryna get that again
I broke my turn down button so man can't press that again
Brand new tracksuit looking all jet black again
Said I quit smoking
But I'm in the Ace Hotel with the jetpack again
I remember when Wiley told me to jump on mic
And I got stage fright
Never thought I could jump on right
Thought I would jump on light
Now I'm like an air hostess how I jump on the flight
Sky scanner, I rocket on sight
Never stay in the same place for too long
You wanna find me? Start looking onlineEvery day man turn up to the max
Don't know how to relax
Went to the hills tryna kick back
Still I wanna tweet and chat
Woke up this morning, said I quit smoking
Now I just bought me a pack
'Cause every day man turn up to the max
Don't know how to relaxI go so hard
Mum told me I should take it easy
Sorry, mum, I am a grime star
And you know my ting stay off the heezy
Please believe me, respect the turn up
Boy Better Know any time we turn up
It's mad, empty bottles of Hennessy
Still I'm on point, slap two at my enemy
This year, I tried to turn down couple time
Fam, who am I kidding?
Told my girl I'mma stop smoking
With a zoot in my hand, just ready to bill it
When I'm riding the riddim, no time for the -isms
I'm high in the sky like a pigeon
See them man there? Them man are some them man theres
They can see but they got no visionWhen we turn up, them man can't turn up
Too much Henney in my cup
Bottle down to the halfway level, not above
Look, now manaman's ready for the club
Them man can't ride the wave I surf
I drink out the bottle, I'm tryna get burse
Drink out the bottle like a baby to bras
15 shots, I'm tryna get murked
Man's on a wave, Dagenham Dave
Man violate, get a punch in your face
Boy Better Know my niggas, we set pace
Man turn up every night and day
Sometimes gotta mix the work with the play
My niggas don't mix the weed and yay
My niggas smoke on the loudest packs
Them man smoke farmer yardie hayEvery day man turn up to the max
Don't know how to relax
Went to the hills tryna kick back
Still I wanna tweet and chat
Woke up this morning, said I quit smoking
Now I just bought me a packBoy Better Know, free Solo 45
Tracksuit Mafia, active boys, baow, baow

Joseph Junior Adenuga, better known as Skepta, is an English Grime MC from Tottenham, North London, England. Originally from and born to Nigerian parents he moved from Lagos to London aged three. His family history can be traced back further to Ethiopia, to the Falash Mura community. He is a producer and DJ commonly associated with the North London Grime scene, including Roll Deep and Boy Better Know.
The name "Skepta" originated from the word Sceptre, a type of staff. He did not like the way it was spelt and felt that he wanted a unique stage name so 'that he could type "Skepta" in YouTube and only he would come up.' So, he changed it.
Skepta started his music career after he won a MC battle with over 300 people contesting beating Tempa T in the final. He also formed a partnership with his brother JME and became renowned throughout Greater London for his hit single (he also produced), "Private Caller" which featured many of his Meridian Crew from Meridian Walk in Tottenham.

Skepta (Managing Director) along with brother JME (CEO), began their grime label Boy Better Know in late 2005. The phrase "Boy Better Know" was originated by Big H the artist.
This phrase was then taken by Skepta and JME. Early 2006 saw the release of 'Shut Yuh Mut' - Boy Better Know Edition 1 which features all 3 artists and throughout the years has contributed and aided many other artists such as Frisco and Wiley to put out mixtapes, along with JME (4 mixtapes) and Skepta's September 2007 release 'Greatest Hits', which was distributed nationwide.
However now, Wiley left because he found mainstream chart success with Roll Deep, a crew that he co-founded and has enjoyed two number one hit singles with on the UK Top 40 Chart. He also had an ongoing 'beef' with Skepta, with both artists creating diss tracks, Wiley's 'Barnet' and Skepta's 'House in the Country' were both uploaded onto YouTube by both artists. However, this 'beef' was later proved to be false, as Skepta has stated in interviews, over Twitter, and whilst appearing on Ustream.

Skepta has released three singles off his third studio album, Doin' It Again (first with a major label). Titled "Bad Boy", "Rescue Me" and "Cross My Heart" featuring Preeya Kalidas, as well as a video for the Hello Good Morning (Grime Remix).
All singles charted in the Top 40 of the UK Singles Chart, with "Rescue Me" being the most successful at number 14. The chart position of "Cross My Heart" was fairly disappointing coming in at number 31 and dropping out of the Top 40 a week later, bearing in mind it had the most promotion out of any of the tracks. After the success of his first single "Bad Boy", Skepta's videos were removed from his own channel and promoted through All Around The World (a division of Universal Records).
His tracks were also premiered on the official website of the label.
It is expected that "Doin' It Again" will be either released on or in partnership with All Around The World records, scheduled for a release of 31 January 2011 for digital download and on 7 February 2011 as a CD.
