(REBEL ACA)
Yo Rebel ACA
Melt your minimal vision
with a mind numbing substance
a culture of our times
like a grime loving conscience
booming headphones
at spaghetti junctions
everybody looking at you
at this Getty function
on a jetty
and you're hosting a luncheon
on a jolly
and you're boasting amongst them
you carry on regardless
carrying
this carry on
of clothes that are all clearly dis-regarded
everybody in this stew
carried or retarded
little bit true
that the salary's well regarded
who are you
when you get married and discarded
another gallant tally
to the broken hearted
another half starved artist
a mic hard laugh fest
who's past his best
whose heart is stressed
I'm a little bit flush and a little bit blessed
remember to always chew your food
and don't get too glued to the boobs
you know you gotta watch your attitude or fuck you
you know you gotta getta know the rules no luck dude
you know you gotta get a different kind of view
I'm new getting everybody behind my view
and behind you in terms of who is who?
well there is you...and here is me
(SPRAGGA)

Expand your limited perspective
with a mind numbing substance
Using music to alter and stimulate the mind
a culture of our times
Representing contemporary culture
like a grime loving conscience
As someone who appreciates and embodies the genre of grime
booming headphones at spaghetti junctions
Listening to loud music at busy intersections
everybody looking at you at this Getty function
Attracting attention at a high-profile gathering
on a jetty and you're hosting a luncheon
Organizing a meal on a pier or dock
on a jolly and you're boasting amongst them
Engaging in lively and bragging conversation
you carry on regardless carrying this carry on of clothes that are all clearly disregarded
Continuing with determination, despite having worn-out and neglected clothes
everybody in this stew carried or retarded
Everyone in this chaotic situation, whether they are participating or hindered
little bit true that the salary's well regarded
A partial truth that high salaries are respected

Asking about one's identity when they enter and leave a marriage
another gallant tally to the broken hearted
Adding another count to those with broken hearts
another half-starved artist a mic hard laugh fest
Another struggling artist with a passion for performing
who's past his best whose heart is stressed
Someone who has passed their prime and is emotionally burdened
I'm a little bit flush and a little bit blessed
Feeling both financially stable and fortunate
remember to always chew your food and don't get too glued to the boobs
Advice to eat slowly and not be overly fixated on physical appearances
you know you gotta watch your attitude or fuck you
Being aware of one's behavior and its consequences
you know you gotta getta know the rules no luck dude
Understanding and following the rules without relying on luck
you know you gotta get a different kind of view
Encouragement to have a fresh perspective
I'm new getting everybody behind my view
As a newcomer, gaining support for his perspective
and behind you in terms of who is who?
Questioning the hierarchy and identities of others
well there is you...and here is me
Distinguishing between two individuals
Sincerely we do this and we got it under control
Expressing dedication and confidence in their abilities
Get you merry get you moving
Bringing joy and energizing the listeners
Get you ready like a drum roll
Preparing the audience for an exciting performance
Yo
Hey
Yeah
Affirmative response
Get it
Encouragement to understand or enjoy the music
