Gimme Shelter

Illy, M-Phazes

[Intro: Mick Jagger & Merry Clayton, Illy]
War, children
(Yeah, yeah)
It's just a shot away (Illy, Illy, M-Phizzle
On the track) It's just a shot away
War, children (Friday Flips #7, "Gimme Shelter"
Rolling Stones)
It's just a shot away (M-Phazes, good gracious)
It's just a shot away

[Verse 1: Illy]
Yeah, yeah, I ask that you
Pour your heart out, drown the threat
We march, not one out of step
Think this shit's bad? See how loud it get
If that lit fuse get to the powder keg
We got crowds in the net, crowds in the street
Weak exploited by the powers that be (Yeah)
It's no new thing, just a newfound reach
World Wide Web, worldwide greed
Left Philly, dreams get broken
Fenced-in routine, repeat the process
You paint ‘em in a corner, provoke ‘em for generations
Poked with sticks, hope the cage don't open
When the gap is padlocked from have's to have-nots
Chat stops, time to act, 'cause
This calm ain’t peace, throw the balance right off, man
All it takes is one shot, shoot

[Chorus: Mick Jagger & Merry Clayton, Illy]
War, children
You know what they say
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away (It's just a shot away)
War, children
You know what they say
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away (It's just a shot away)
War, children
You know what they say
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away (It's just a shot away)
War, children
You know what they say
It's just a shot away
Yo, yeah, yeah (It's just a shot away)

[Verse 2: Illy]
And before the new album come
Half another of Friday Flips in four months
So don’t get cute thinking you work harder than us
You don't, you shine when we're done
I can’t stay in the middle of the road all day (Yep)
So I pin my colours to the flag I raise (Yeah)
Melbourne made (Yeah), hip-hop boy (Yeah)
Bad bitches love (Yeah) and wack guys hate
What I do to put it in your brain
I give a fuck about what you say
Mate, might wanna make your next few waters
'Cause I ain’t cared since ‘08, for real
Don’t be fooled, 'cause I smashed a tax bracket
My whole career is back-to-back classics
And yours isn't, so if you're thinking 'bout swinging
Best pack a flak jacket, biatch!

[Chorus: Mick Jagger & Merry Clayton, Illy]
War, children
You know what they say
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away (It's just a shot away)
War, children
You know what they say
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away (It's just a shot away)
War, children
You know what they say
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away (It's just a shot away)
War, children
You know what they say
It's just a shot away
Yeah, yeah (It's just a shot away)

[Verse 3: Illy]
Braveheart to the end, guess I’m my dad's son
Shit, I could do this with collapsed lungs
Roll like a tank does
Mind like a lawyer, rhyme like a mad cunt
Yeah, I guess I’m my dad's son
Shit, I could do this with collapsed lungs
Roll like a tank does
Mind like a lawyer, rhyme like a mad cunt
Haha
And them tunes might help
But you want it done right
You gotta do it for yourself
When our backs to the wall
We react with force
It is what it is, no love lost
When all roads lead to...

[Chorus: Mick Jagger & Merry Clayton, Illy]
War, children
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
War, children
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
War, children
You know what they say
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away (It's just a shot away)
War, children
You know what they say
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
War, children
You know what they say
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away, it's just a shot away
War, children
You know what they say
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away, it's just a shot away
War, children
You know what they say
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away, it's just a shot away
War, children
You know what they say
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away (It's just a shot away)

[Outro: Merry Clayton, Illy]
Rape, murder
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Rape, murder, yeah
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away (Friday Flips 7)
Rape, murder (Series 1 is finished)
It's just a shot away (Shouts to M-Phazes, tenacious)
It's just a shot away ([?])
Yeah (S-Dub)
And all you guys for downloading it
Checking it out and spreading the word
So, uh
Thanks for that
Catch ya, cunt
Fuck yeah!
