Verse 1:
Dm7
I'm not a rapper; I'm a singer with the flow. I've got a habit for spitting quicker lyrics, you know.
Bb C
You found me ripping the writtens out of the pages they sit in. I never want to get bitten
C#dim
'Cause plagiarism is hidden.
Dm7
Watch how I sit on the rhythm. Prisoner with a vision.
Bb
Signs of a label, but didn't listen to any criticism. Thought you knew but you didn't
C C#dim
So perk your ears up and listen. Studio is a system, and you could say that I'm driven
Dm7
And now it's on to the next saga, we drink the best lager, i never tried to win you over
Bb
Like your stepfather. I do my own thing now, and get respect after
C C#dim
And I'm avoiding the 'caine like it was Get Carter
Dm7
For four years I never had a place to stay, but it's safe to say that it kept me grounded like a paperweight
Bb C C#dim
At 16 years old, yeah I moved out of my home. I was Macy Gray I tried to say goodbye and I choked
D5
I went from sleeping at the subway station to sleeping with a Movie star and adding to the population
Bb5 C5 C#dim
Not my imagination, I don't wanna relax. Would it hurt your reputation if I put it on wax?
I'll take it back now...
Chorus:
Dm7 Bb
Mmmm c'mon and take it back love,
C C#dim Dm7
C'mon and take it back for us
Bb
Don't you fade into the back love.
C
Noooh
Verse 2:
C#dim Dm7
I take it back with the rhythm and blues. With my rap pack I'll be singing the news,
Bb
Trying to act like Jack Black when I bring 'em to school I'll make a beat with my feet by just hitting a loop
C C#dim
Bringing the lyrics to prove that I can fit in these shoes,
Dm7
I give you the truth through the vocal booth, stars burst out on the scene like an opal fruit,
Bb C C#dim
They try to take aim like Beckham when he goes to shoot, but then again that's what they're supposed to do,
Dm7
And I'm supposed to be calm, I tattooed the lyrics onto my arm,
Whispering everything that happens is from now on.
Bb C C#dim
I'll be ready to start again by the end of the song, Still they're claiming that I handled it wrong,
D5
But then I never had an enemy, except the NME,
But I'll be selling twice as many copies as the magazines will ever be,
Bb5 C5 C#5
With only spectacles ahead of me and festival fees, are healthier than a Dalmatian on Pedigree,
D5
Singing for the masses, Rubber dinghy rapids, I keep this rapping a habit, And keep on fashioning magic,
Bb5 C C#dim
I'm battling for respect, I don't know if I'll have it, This songs from the heart, Cover the planet
I'll take it back now
Chorus:
Dm7 Bb
Mmmm c'mon and take it back love,
C C#dim Dm7
C'mon and take it back for us
Bb
Don't you fade into the back love.
C C#dim
Noooh I take it back now
Verse 3:
Dm7
Now I don't ever want to be perfect, cause I'm a singer that you never want to see shirtless.
Bb C C#
And I accept the fact that someone's gotta win worst-dressed, taking my first steps into the scene,
Giving me focus.
Dm7
Putting on a brave face, like Timothy Dalton. Considering a name change, thinking it was hopeless.
Bb C C#dim
Rhyming over recordings. Avoiding tradition. Cause every day some lyrics and a melody can be written
Dm7
Now absence can make your heart ache. But drinking absinthe can change your mind-state, vividly,
Bb C C#dim
I need to let my liver be. And I say it again, living life on the edge, With a closed hand full of friends
Dm7
Is good advice from a man who took his life on the road with me. And I hope to see him blowing up globally
Bb
Cause that's how it's supposed to be. I'm screaming out vocally
C
It might seem totally impossible achieving life's dreams but,
Dm7
but I just write schemes. I'm never having a stylist, giving me tight jeans.
Bb
Madison Square Garden is where I might be
C C#dim
But more likely, You'll find me in the back room of a dive bar with my mates
Dm7
Having a pint with McDaid. Discussing records we made And every single second knowing that we'll never betray
Bb C
The way we were raised. Remembering our background. Sat down.
C#dim
That's how we plan it out; It's time to take it back now
Chorus:
Dm7 Bb
Mmmm c'mon and take it back love,
C C#dim Dm7
C'mon and take it back for us
Bb
Don't you fade into the back love.
C C#dim
Noooo
Dm7 Bb
Mmmm c'mon and take it back love,
C C#dim Dm7
C'mon and take it back for us
Bb
Don't you fade into the back love.
