Braintax:
First of all for all the heads who don't know by now
Im gonna start from the top and break it all right down
My moniker is Braintax when Im spitting on wax
Or when Im making a track but when Im sending a fax
I sign J Christie on a licence contract cos Im on my own label
And it's called Low Life
Putting records in the shops since 92
A lot of people don't know and think this heres brand new
I gotta shout out Destiny from Catch A Groove days
For buying in my records trekking round in a haze
Through the West End, back then me and my best friend,
But now Braintax is a one-man scheme
And all my friends contribute to this solo team
I know I mean what I say plus I know what I mean
Do you know what I mean? This is Biro Funk
And it feels like a giro and a henry of skunk
See I - got the beats from Harry Love I do shows with
And me and Mystro got flows and now you know mate.
Ive been rapping since the Toxteth riots
So you new jack, American-wannabees need to stay quiet
Im mad at life cos I don't really wanna be here
My Benny Live track will make you see clear
Like The Grip - Jehst beat - politics, know the dark shit
Low Life is depth, dopeness we start shit and show paths
Not in it for the laughs
And looking after business though I still hate maths
But I love cash, every 20 notes a brick
In my house in the sun that's why Im up at half 1
I swore to stop writing punchline nonsense
And now it takes longer but I penetrate your conscience
(Whos this?) No-one else sounds like Brains, you get me ?
North plus South and my mood ? Well, it's tetchy
