Verse 1

B: Ahhhhhh...let's fuck it up now...
R: 'cause enough is enough
L: Hear the lyrical assault from the brother called Ruf!
R: Shakin' up the scene 'cause no other would dare
B: Fuck Westwood!
R: We said it and meant it, now where's...your DJ skills, man?

R: You don't slam, man
L: With your U.S. jams, man
R: Hip-hop forgotten as you follow your trends
L: Swingin' in the Jungle, where will it end?
R: Deny your culture with sad fake slang
and cling on, on American arses you hang
You don't impress me
L: You cannot test me
R: I'm runnin' round defences like I was George Best, see?
L: US copycats? We're no sad twats
R: So take that pow! in your face like Naseem
Can you battle that?
L: Nothing but pure facts
R: We've shat on your credibility
L: Scene is small in the U.K
R: You don't support us
L: You just haunt us
R: Never will flaunt us
So what we gonna do, Loz?
L: Lyrical dissection
Got to find a cure for a weird infection!
R: Symptoms?
L: Kids idolizing the wack, man
R: Brainwashed brothers seem to think that he's phat, man
Believin' all the jingles, he can't even scratch!
B: Mindbomb's better

B: He can't compare, so Westwood...

L: People think you're phat
R: Most think you're dreadful
L: Kids walkin' around with a fucked up head full of
B: Misconceptions, false pretensions
L: Hip-hop's worldwide, not just American
R: Stop your skemes, I will not change
or rap about guns just to get paid
B: Blade cuts deeper
R: Slowly bleedin'
UK rap dyin', nobody's heedin'
the truths, the youth who put on voices
actin' American
L: Big up your boyfriend
R: When I'm still sellin' records I know I'm rated
Sell many more, some people won't play this
You got to innovate, 'cause if no-one cares
you better...

L: Limited selections of platters that matter
