Lyrics

Wait, do you realise the shit we're in?

Expressing awareness of the challenging situation

First, they come with chip-and-pin

Referring to the introduction of chip-and-pin technology

Next thing you know, it's chip-in-skin

Suggesting a progression to more invasive technologies like microchipping

Tony Blair will just sit and grin

Implies political figures like Tony Blair are indifferent to societal concerns

The government must think we're dim

Criticizing the government's perceived underestimation of public intelligence

They don't even hide the fixed voting

Highlighting the lack of transparency in voting processes

It's bait, I won't vote for him

Expressing refusal to vote due to distrust in political figures

He made up bullshit to go to war with Bin

Accusing Tony Blair of fabricating reasons for war with Bin Laden

Either way, you lose

Indicating a lose-lose situation regardless of political choices

Government parties act like fools

Criticizing the behavior of government parties

In the House of Commons, shuffling shoes

Describing the chaotic atmosphere in the House of Commons

Spitting lyrics at next government crews

Expressing a commitment to challenge the government through music

Charles Kennedy will strap a 16

Suggesting Charles Kennedy's readiness for conflict

Then Tony Blair will back his team

Implies Tony Blair's support for aggressive actions

Tony's lyrics on an arms house tip

Referring to Tony Blair's aggressive stance through his words

Too much hype, they'll get the chief whip

Warning about excessive hype leading to consequences


You're so blind you're so blind

Repetition emphasizing the theme of being blind to societal issues

You're so blind you're so blind

-

You need to open your eyes and see

-

Open your eyes and see

-

You need to open your eyes and see

-

You need to open your eyes and see

-

Do you realise the stuff you do?

Questioning individual awareness and actions

Your crew's in beef with a next crew

Describing conflicts between different groups

You go find out what started the beef

Criticizing involvement in conflicts without understanding their origins

And you find it had nothing to do with you

-

You're just wasting your teenage life

Advising to consider long-term consequences rather than wasting time

You've gotta think about when you're 35

-

Serious, I wanna make Ps

Expressing a desire for financial success and stability

I wanna be able to pay off my mortgage twice

-

My music's getting big, don't spoil it

Advising against pursuing conflicts and wars in the music industry

How far you gonna get with a war?

-

Let's think, do you wanna be a baiders

Presenting a choice between pursuing a criminal lifestyle or a legitimate one

Or do you wanna shot

-

Aftershave in the toilets?

Describing undesirable consequences of a criminal lifestyle

You can tell that I wanna be baiding

Expressing a desire for success and making sensible choices

I chat so much sense, it's amazing

Asserting that the lyrics make sense and are meaningful

So if you wanna make Ps

Encouraging focus on personal success rather than others' misfortunes

Stop talking about people getting weighed in

-

You're so blind you're so blind

Reiteration of the theme of being blind with a call to open one's eyes

You're so blind you're so blind

-

You need to open your eyes and see

-

Open your eyes and see

-

You need to open your eyes and see

-

You need to open your eyes and see

-

You could've been a leader

Encouraging self-realization and personal growth

(You could've been a leader) you're so blind

-

Let people put you down, alright

-

(Down, alright) you're so blind

-

And it ain't about black or white

-

(Black or white) you're so blind

-

You could be that star that shines bright

-

(Shines bright) you're so blind

-

Listen up, it's Eskiboy and I play blackjack

Personal boasts about skills, work ethic, and success

I don't play poker

-

I make a dream come true, you're a hoper

-

Drive myself, I don't need a chauffeur

-

Me, I do 'nuff work, I ain't a loafter

-

Sometimes, you can't see the kid

-

But then I pop up just

-

Like toast from a toaster

-

I murk crews all day, I'm a mover

-

South west floater, E3 soldier

-

You're so blind you're so blind

Final repetition of the theme with a call to open one's eyes

You're so blind you're so blind

-

You need to open your eyes and see

-

Open your eyes and see

-

You need to open your eyes and see

-

You need to open your eyes and see
