My views on the inequality in the UK and how we can stand up and say "NOT NO MORE"

lyrics

Intro:
Back in The Manor I was racking up for stacking up
Back in The Manor is where you would have found me
Back in The Manor used to be the place to be

Verse 1:
But not no more there ain’t no life in the city
It’s all drugs and warfare there ain’t nothing pretty
To many young people struggling with life’s nitty gritty
Now every man woman and child gotta look out for themselves
Cos the Government once again
Are trying ah attack our emotional health

City’s North to South yeah, their all the same
Homeless on the street begging for your spare change
People walking by like they don’t even exist
But the truth is they probably got ah type of mental illness
An illness missed off a GP’s long list
now they’re desperate cold lonely un homeless

Big cities street lights back alleys dog fights yeah
Freezing cold weather on them long, long nights
We go Back to The Manor
It’s like this Back in The Manor

Chorus:
Not No More, Not No More, Not No More

We’re not taking this No More
Join hands together

Not No More, Not No More, Not No More

Verse 2:
Recession equals depression
Oppression sow’s seeds for expression
Leaving young minds
With a physical impression
I’m spitting lyrical bars of passion in quick succession It’s an obsession
Hot words too hot to speak but there on the minds of the people on the street

Pre-Chorus:
Yeah Back in The Manor
Ow Back in The Manor
Yeah Back in The Manor
We’re going back to the Manor
Not no more

Chorus:
Not No More, Not No More, Not No More
Should people have to struggle like this

Not No More
It’s a collaboration a combination
People coming together
Should people have to spend their lives
Stressing like this
Not No More, Not No More, Not No More
Should people have to live like this
Not No More
We got feeling, we got feeling
Yeah we go like this, yeah we flow like this

Middle 8:
Not No More
The people in the power yeah, they know the score
Keep the wealth from the masses
To keep us poor
I say Na Not Na No More
Yeah, we are the power so were write our own laws
Yeah, we have the power to close all their f##kin doors
Mc Danny G on the mic mc

Outro:
Back in The Manor
Rinse out selector
Not No More, Not No More, Not More
It’s all about feeling, big meaning
liberation
It’s the D A NN Y G
Were gonna stand up and be counted
Stand-up be counted
It’s like this Back in The Manor
Not No More, Not No More, Not More
