If I Could (feat. Ed Sheeran) Lyrics

[feat. Ed Sheeran]The life I live is a fast one
But even if I'm getting home-pies, I would have some
Course I think I'm top of the sport I do bar-none
Won't change a thing and I can still have a chart run, still be a gargon
You grow up as a kid; you're looking up to your older
And then you lose respect because you see what they show ya
I wish I didn't have to be the one that they looked to
I don't condone the war that the young ones are put through
Things have changed now but I come from the hood too
People say they never see me there but I'm hood dude
Say the word lemon, I'll be there with the good food
Certain man you see and they are not in a good mood
I just let the world go by and I'll pace it
If I draw a good picture then another can trace it
Mother dropped me in the world only for me to grace it
I'm gona leave my mark on this earth place it, advanced not basic
If I could, I would change
Life's a battle I'm only one somebody I can only do so much

And even I ain't worry but I still stay strong
I am the only one, ohh
I tell them no man is an island, well you will think we are but I'm breaking the silenceI wanna see us all on one time
But if I'm on the bill then someone gotta spit one rhyme
What they tryna do is light the show with me one sign
Can't help the world will your only one mind, only got one life
If you don't reverse and take it serious; one mic
Deny you of your legacy and they ain't got one right
Well I record a batch of nine tracks in one night
I work through the hours and then I meet with the sunlight
I know I got power but I'm tryin to channel it
I know that we can make the music, money, and manage it
Even starting from the floor I'll find the flow and unravel it
Every time I watch the news blud it's making me sad a bit
I really need to change the channel over to happy vibes
N-dubz, fazer, tulisa, dappy vibes
Whoevers in the lime-light's got a good apetite
I rate ya, how am I gona hate ya? Harry right, huh
If I could, I would change
Life's a battle I'm only one somebody I can only do so much
And even I ain't worry but I still stay strong
I am the only one, ohh
I tell them no man is an island, well you will think we are but I'm breaking the silenceIf I could, I would change
Life's a battle I'm only one somebody I can only do so much
And even I ain't worry but I still stay strong
I am the only one, ohh
I tell them no man is an island, well you will think we are but I'm breaking the silence

Wiley

Wiley, also known as Eskiboy (real name Richard Kylea Cowie, born 19 January 1979) is a Grime MC and producer from Bow E3, East London. Wiley has created his own musical genre, which he calls "Eski", and which is largely associated with the Grime genre. "Eskimo", from which the genre takes its name, is probably the best known Eski track. Originally performing under the title "Wiley Kat" (adopted from the Thundercats cartoon), he has now shortened his stage name and rarely is referred to as "Wiley Kat".

Wiley is known as 'the godfather of grime', since it is widely regarded he is a pioneering influence in the grime scene, and he is also notable for his exceptional work-rate, having five projects lined up for 2008 alone. Wiley has been one of the biggest artists in the history of the genre, releasing three albums and having been signed to XL Recordings and now to Big Dada Recordings, on which he has recently released his third album "Playtime Is Over". Wiley founded Eskibeat Recordings in 2007. This Is Not A crew but is a record label which consists of MC's such as Chipmunk, Little Dee and ice kid.

In 2008, Wiley found mainstream success with his hit single 'Wearing My Rolex'.

Wiley first started producing in 1996, working in various genres, notable Jungle and Garage. Wiley first became well known in the East London underground garage scene during the late 1990s, when he was a member of the Pay As You Go Cartel, who had some limited UK chart success. He also co-produced "Nicole's Groove" as Phaze One, and appeared on several tracks by other artists. He made numerous vinyl releases, often driving around London himself selling to record shops. One of these, "Eskimo", was a huge success on the underground scene, reputedly selling in the thousands, where most other artists within the scene could only sell 500-1000 copies of their tracks. He regularly appeared on East London pirate radio stations playing grime tracks, which helped increase his profile. He still does underground events, like Lord Of The Mics 1 , Eskimo Dance, and also does Sidewinder but with his group Roll Deep, which he left Pay As You Go Cartel to create.
