Roni Size No More (Feat. Beverley Knight & MC Dynamite) Lyrics

[Intro - Bev Knight]
Noooooo, no,
(no, no, no, no)
gotta here me (here me, here me)
here me, yeah,
uh, uh, oh, no,

[Verse 1]
what is going on,
you know you surrender to ways that'll end ya
before you have begun,
Mr 'wanna be player' who rules with the terror
of bottles knives and guns,
it aint always the target that your bullet scars,
it's the innocent passers by,
it's always the good that shouldn't 'o died,
now watcha gonna do,
when you look in the mirror, the eyes of a killer,
are staring back at you,
It's too late for prayer and no-one will save ya
with no place to run to,
the thugs that you thought were your people,
had bought you a ticket to your brain,
this is your final day,
but i say...

[Chorus]
No, no more,
put it, put it down,
too many gone before they're grown,
yeah
No, no more, put it, put it down,
you only reap what you have sown,
no more,
(family's torn apart,)
no more,
(tradegy is in the heart of....)
this home, this street, this town,
no more no more,

[Verse 2]
now don't you read the signs,
if those you be down with
have done, got their a__ hit,
then you are next in line,
(next in line)
and so on and so on,
don't tell me, your so dumb, that you can't see the light
(can't see the light)
It's time for decision
It's time for some action
to stop it once and for all,
you still wont call,
I'm calling for....

[Chorus]
No, no more,
put it, put it down,
too many gone before they're grown,
I say,
No, no more,
put it, put it down,
you only reap what you have sown,
no more,
(family's torn apart,)
no more,
(tradegy is in the heart of....)
this home, this street, this town,
no more no more,

[Dynamite MC]
c'mon c'mon people,
another rusted blade of metal,
so when this bullet hits the street,
now that's not equal!
how many have to cry beneath the steeple
too many with the streets
with their minds set that's too d___ lethal!
I know the argument,
you got yours to protect yourselves,
so you don't need to check yourself,
If you aint tryin' to wreck yourself,
It's dem,
But then there's dem it comes to you,
when you find yourself defending a member of your crew,
It's a vicious cycle, too many wanna claim the t__le,
they wanna be the 'bad man thug' cuz that's their idol,
don't live by the life you're not supposed to be living,
don't try take,take,take 'n hate just try givin'
cuz one can make a difference,
Ten can make the same,
One Hundred can make things get better round your lane,
One Thousand a new start,
Ten thousand a revolution
One million we're finally close to this solution,
no more,

No more,
(more, more, more, more.........)
