[Verse 1]
Em
But now I'm in town, break it down
Thinking of making a new sound
G
Playing a different show every night
In front of a new crowd
A
That's you now, hello, ciao
Seems that life is great now
CD
See me lose focus, as I sing to you loud
EmG
I can't, no, I won't hush
A
I'll say the words that make you blush
CD
I'm gonna sing this now, ow ow
Em
See, I'm true, my songs are where my heart is
G
I'm like glue, I stick to other artists
A
I'm not you, now that would be disastrous
C
Let me sing and do my thing
D
And move to greener pastures
Em
See, I'm real, I do it all, it's all me
G
I'm not fake, don't ever call me lazy
A
I won't stay put
Give me the chance to be free
C
Suffolk sadly seems to sort of suffocate me
[Chorus]
EmG
Cause you need me, man, I don't need you
A
You need me, man, I don't need you
C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all
DEm
You need me, man, I don't need you
EmG
You need me, man, I don't need you
A
You need me, man, I don't need you
C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all
D
You need me
[Verse 2]
Em
I sing and write my own tune
and I write my own verse
G
Hell, don't need another wordsmith
to make the tune sell?
A
Call yourself a singer-writer
You're just bluffing
C
Your name's on the credits
D
And you didn't write nothing
Em
I sing fast
I know that all my shit's cool
G
I will blast
And I didn't go to Brit School
A
I came fast with the way I act, right
CD
I can't last, if I'm smoking on a crack pipe
Em
I won't be a product of my genre
G
My mind will always be stronger than my songs are
A
Never believe the bullshit that fake guys feed to ya
CD
Always read the stories that you hear in Wikipedia
Em
And musically I'm demonstrating
G
When I perform live, feels like I am meditating
A
Times at The Enterprise when some fella filmed me
CD
A young singer-writer like Gabriella Cilmi
[Chorus]
EmG
Cause you need me, man, I don't need you
A
You need me, man, I don't need you
C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all
DEm
You need me, man, I don't need you
EmG
You need me, man, I don't need you
A
You need me, man, I don't need you
C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all
D
You need me
[Verse 3]
Em
All I want in this cold world is to make music and use it
G
Not to abuse it and get affected, infected with the who's who of music
A
Who did it, who is it, who's in it or what the hell does it matter?
CDEm
Chitter chatter, don't matter what a yidder, yidder, yadder, it don't matter to me
G
All I want is a bit of dignity in me to battle this industry freely
A
To be me in this seedy, needy world, can you hear me?
CD
Hey, so I keep singing that
Em
When I first started this rapping shit I felt pressure from haters
G
Became invaded with sadists and just developed a hater radar
A
And made for the stars, kept my grind in the dark
CD
And then appeared with a remedy kicking rhymes with a melody
Em
Hennesey shots and Glocks, all these fools on the block
G
Who said you gotta be a gangster now to raise to the top?
A
I'm just a normal, casual, usual, everyday type of guy
CD
With my head in the sky, Ed Sheeran, Urban Angel coming ready to die
Em
So see the signs, stand to the side
Open your eyes and take a look and realize
The resurrection's arrived and as the mist clears
CDEm
I arise from my tomb in disguise, all alone, Alonestar
G
Urban Angel rising from the ashes
ACD
Surprising all haters, guiding, now moving steady
[Pre-Chorus]
Em
You can find me in the club, bottle full of bub
G
Mummy I've got the X if you're into taking drugs
A
Into having sex, I ain't into making love
CD
Come give me a hug if you're into getting rough
Em
You can find me in the club club, bottle full of bubbly
G
Mummy I've got the X if you're into taking drugs
A
Into having sex, I ain't into making love
CD
Come give me a hug if you're into getting rough
[Chorus]
EmG
Cause you need me, man, I don't need you
A
You need me, man, I don't need you
C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all
DEm
You need me, man, I don't need you
EmG
You need me, man, I don't need you
A
You need me, man, I don't need you
C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all
DEm
You need me, man, I don't need you
[Bridge]
EmGA
My eyes are red, I've been burning, I've been burning
EmGA
My eyes are red, I've been burning, I've been burning
EmGCD
My eyes are red I've been burning, I've been burning on a spliff off your high grade
EmGCD
My eyes are red I've been burning, I've been burning, burning, burning
[Verse 4]
Em
Now where I come from burning weed it is a habit
G
A big fat bag of high grade weed, you know I got to have it
A
Cause if I don't have it in my pocket I'm going to panic
CD
Cause like I said where I come from weed smoking is a habit
Em
Yup, we'll do da bun in the place up in the hood
G
One of them things I have inherited like a ghetto man should
A
One of them things is smoking weed it yes it makes me feel good
CD
Burning high grade sensimilla, yes it makes me feel
Em
But me is a man, ah, talk about sensimilla is a drug
G
And if I start to smoke it I'mma-nna turn into a thug
A
Where I come from that they talking could that only get you mugged
CD
Where I come from burning weed it is a blessing from above
Em
Where I come from yes we bun it when we listen rub a dub
G
Where I come from yes we bun after we just-a make a love
A
Where I come from yes we bun it when the sun starts shine
CD
I blaze high grade weed all the time!
[Bridge]
DEm
Now my eyes are red
G
Cause you need me, I don't need you
A
You need me man, my eyes are red
C
You need me man, I don't need you at all
DEm
You need me man, my eyes are red
G
And you need me, I don't need you
A
You need me man, my eyes are red
C
You need me man, I don't need you at all
D
You need me man, I don't need you
[Instrumental break]
[Interlude] Same chord progression (Em G A C D)
Woooah
Woooah
Woooah
Yea
[Verse 5]
Em
Cause with the lyrics I'll be aiming it right
G
I won't stop till my name's in lights
At stadium heights with Damien Rice
A
On red carpets, now I'm on Arabian Nights
CD
Because I'm young and all my brother's gonna give me advice
Em
Long nighter, short height and I gone hyper
G
Never be anything but a singer-songwriter
A
The game's over but now I'm on a new level
CD
Watch how I step on the track without a loop pedal
Em
People think that I'm bound to blow up
G
I've done around about a thousand shows
A
But I haven't got a house plus I live on the couch
CD
So you can be the lyrics when I'm singing them out, Wow
Em
From day one, I've been prepared
G
With V05 wax for my ginger hair
AC
So now I'm back to the sofa, giving a dose of what the future holds
D
'Cause it's another day
[Verse 6]
Em
Rucksack with the old clothes, I rap with cold flows
G
I'm back with the old jokes, in fact you don't know
A
On tracks I throw blows to make my punchlines relevant
CD
If you can't keep up you'll get none, you're celibate
Em
My flows developing, skin lacks the melanin
G
Give me a shot of adrenaline and I get it in
A
Do it for the hell of it
CD
Cause ever since I hit the mainstream with The A Team I seem to sell a bit
Em
I took what held me back with the women, then I packaged the image
G
Put in some content, then I sold it back as a gimmick
A
The fact is this, I'll end up dating actresses
CD
Wake up on dirty mattresses, I think I'll need to practice this
Em
But I make shit happen, call me a laxative
G
World's on my shoulders, I don't even know what Atlas is
A
Hard bars sharp like a cactus is
CD
I'm back to rapping, back to back cause I've been practicing
I'm back to sing this
[Chorus]
EmG
Cause you need me, man, I don't need you
A
You need me, man, I don't need you
C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all
DEm
You need me, man, I don't need you
EmG
You need me, man, I don't need you
A
You need me, man, I don't need you
C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all
DEm
You need me, man, I don't need you
[Verse 7]
Em
Plus I'll keep my last name forever keep the genre pretty basic
G
Gonna be breaking into other peoples tunes when I chase it
A
And replace it with the elephant in the room with a facelift
CD
Into another rappers shoes using new laces
Em
Selling CDs from my rucksack aiming for the papers
G
Selling CDs from my rucksack aiming for the majors
A
Nationwide tour with just jack, still had to get the bus back
CD
Clean cut kid without a razor for the mustache
Em
I hit back when the pen hurts me
G
I'm still a choir boy in a Fenchurch tee
A
I'm still the same as a year ago
But more people hear me though
CD
According to the MySpace and YouTube videos
Em
I'm always doing shows if I'm not I'm in the studio
G
Truly broke, never growing up call me Ruffio
A
Melody music maker
Reading all the papers
CD
They say I'm up and coming like I'm fucking in an elevator.
[Chorus]
EmG
Cause you need me, man, I don't need you
A
You need me, man, I don't need you
C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all
DEm
You need me, man, I don't need you
EmG
You need me, man, I don't need you
A
You need me, man, I don't need you
C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all
DEm
You need me, man, I don't need you
