- a song from the british rapper Roots Manuva from his 1999 album "Brand new second hand"...
Lyrics:
I bring you tents and girth to this homegrown range
Bona fide what you hear, tis the sound of pain
But pain leads to gain so we dare not stagnate
We elevate to that next state, motion divine
Glisten like crystal ball and stand tall
With this knowledge and overstanding
Enterprise landing, bringing dem new brands of buff
Yes, we come proper with potency
Ain't no blood in my body, it's liquid soul in my vein
I dance on a thin line of sane and deranged
And it's all criss once I get neatly in the cipher
Chat like pickney to the piper that pied
As this natural mystic blows through the air
These lessons of life become crystal clear
Precision of my vision is ital
Separating sharks from the blessed is vital
Now I can smell a rat coming from a mile round the corner
One time I bored ya, twice you can't couf
No, we won't stop rebuke thee
You satanics, you fools can't recruit me
Not now while there's
[Chorus]
Movements fi make, typhoons grew
Strong and cold-sheist them a still coast through
Movements fi make, typhoons grew
Strong and cold-sheist them a still coast through
Left, right, left, right, left, right, left, right
I'll slap the bacon out your mouth, dance upon your sarnie
Rolling with Jah bredren dem, God-blessed army
How the hell you gon stop this tide from steady coming
Run and catch in tune with the elements
At speed we proceed, traction for action
Hot 125, government goons get dashed to the side
Too big to slide now, though they try to disguise
I can still recognize devilworks when I see it
Weakheart disciples keep weakheart friends
Always had a hate for what their weakhearts defend
They fiend for that crack, ain't no one to tax
We might run home and smoke a brown bag of seed
Best believe that these times is treacherous
And I know not how else I'm supposed to act
But stand close to culture roots-fi
See me getting deft with that two-step shuffle
Haggling others who for the cause
Reigning with that roots type terror
Freaking at your weakhearty era but
We build, move and prove that we don't suffer fools
[Chorus 2x]
Roots Manuva should be awarded a Nobel Prize for improving humanity
Love it, he's helped me so much these last two weeks and I've never met him 😁

Never heard another track that hit me the way this does. Takes me back, leads me forward, keeps me in the moment. Liquid soul.
Roots done many great songs
I bring you tents and girth to this homegrown range
Bona fide what you hear, tis the sound of pain
But pain leads to gain so we dare not stagnate
We elevate to that next state, motion divine
Glisten like crystal ball and stand tall
With this knowledge and overstanding

Ain't no blood in my body, it's liquid soul in my vein

Roots Manuva is hands down the best hip hop artist to come from UK. lyrical madness & sik productions!!
Colonel Sanders GB... no uk... but u are fella.... the fella is pure class.
.. left .. right .. left right...
Hmmm Jehst is the best. Love Roots tho
Smolkenerbs420 they don't speak truth bless always truth win sane with Tupac and biggie , Tupac king and same as roots manuva king of the old-school uk scene for truth
yeah man, dont know the scene that well but Rodney is so good he transcends the genre
Ocean Wisdom is driving things forward these days. Love this album tho... remember spinning it when it came out, still check it on the regular. Legend.
Literally timeless. I found this album in highschool back in '08 and was blown away by the fact it was from 99. Still blows me away 14 years later.
This song is actually a live session from the xen cuts disc. Still one of his best IMO
@Shawn Taylor MINE TOO BRO
"I'll slap the bacon out your mouth, dance upon your sarnie" 😂 what a lyric
😁👊
Ain't no blood in my body, it's liquid soul in my vein.
Pure class..... yes we come proper
Dance of the tine line of sane and deranged
"Here's a little ditty"...*drops this massive tune* Sounds just as good as when it first came out. Great lyrics, one-of-a-kind flow, instrumentation, mellow groove...everything
Roderick Manuva...all the way from the south west...with something to get off my chest
'Ain't no blood in my body, it's liquid soul in my vein'...pure class
The Man is a total Genius.
this is one of my fave tunes by roots, the lyrics, beat and delivery are just sick. many dayz when times were stressful i wud put this and smoke a zoot and just get lost in the tune. Props to roots manuva one of our best.
this track is a hip-hop masterpiece!

I doubt YOU've been listening to Roots since the early days, init luv? Spesh not with Miley Cyrus on your watchlist. Nice troll though.
The Legend that is Rodrick Manuva 🔥
This track actually sounds ethereal. It's unreal, you literally cannot date this. Pure genius.

Landmark album. The feeling of living in the UK captured forever.
you dont get it bro, give up. you waste your time dissing some harmless girl, bcos she likes myliy C, so you think you're better. and this album is nothing to do with the uk. you too basic for this deep shit, basic fuck, haha. Baaaaaaaaaasiccccccccc
This whole album is as Fresh as Gooseberries
Best underground Hip-Hop track ever made
The 1st song I heard by him and I was stuck like WTF!!! THIS CAT IS DOPE!!!
hip-hop masterpiece!
an absolute masterpiece
If anyone says all rap is shite point them in this direction
haha you got it
Alrighty, ok.
aged really well. timeless track for real
No doubt bro. I just came back to it today!
it really is, and it might sound cliché but this song really hits different when you get older
Its so true, we can all flutter about that line at certain points in our lives, in our world, in our minds....splendid
So good. Timeless
Hands down favourite of all time....
Classic.
saw this man bust his cypher at the Hi-Fi bar, in west end Brissie a few years back...was well attended and a nice rich atmosphere of smiles for miles...but it all started for me with his first solo album "Brand New Second Hand"...im gona go get this on vinyl, his earlier colabotions with Wayne Lotek Bennet, called "Lotek Hi-Fi" is also a great one to have on vinyl...
I was at that gig and got laid with some random that night! Good times!
This is the best version of the track imo :)
very different from the original album, without scratches and dirty sound
Dark, Powerful, Deep.
Roots is dope as fuck.. props from Poland fam, classic hiphop, real one, here!
2018.... probably even doper than I remember this classic many years ago when it first dropped!
absolutely love the bass on pretty much any roots manuva track, addictive!
Left, right, left, right, left, right, left, right - England's finest!
"so we dare not stagnate, we elevate"
STILL A BANGER. REAL HIPHOP LIVES.
one of my favourite albums
One of my favourite tracks Roots manuva knows how to bring it fresh on tracks.
Mr Grimez The Anti Hero "Legend Of The Underdog EP" Aug 19th 2009 includes Facebook Killer.
Le meilleur morceau de tout les temps
Love this artist what a legend!
One of the true hip hop legends.
Strictly genious! Manuva 4 president.
Just had a mad root. Now some roots.m
One of the best flows anywhere. Im not even British, but i know good music.
This version is so raw. So good
very different from the original album, without scratches and dirty sound
i just found this and i can't believe i've never heard this sooner...
Big up everyone who’s into such a fantastic artist. It really is pure genius this track ❤
Superior lyrics and super nice flow make Smith my fav
So deep, tune.
Sound like a live version.. this is dope
gold. actual gold.
Pamiętam jakby to było wczoraj: o kurwa! Jakie to dobre. To były czasy, wtedy sporo nowych rzeczy wychodziło. Teraz to już nic nie robi takiego wrażenia.
best beat manuva's ever spit on.
left - riiiiight...left - riiiiiight....
Sick, Heavy, Epic
unbelievable song
Roots Manuva - Movements (Live At Inside Tracks) from the xen cuts album (ninja cut) from maybe the Y 2000
+Renan Allard Ah dude.
i remember this album pure masterpiece... Amon Tobin, Saul William
i love punk, metal blah blah, this tune transcends everything.
Back when music used to blow my mind.
the best song...
my brither....... what a tune ...... may i reconmend south side
RESPECT MY BRO!!!
the sound and emotion this tune captures really captivates me. Anyone got similar uk tunes?
fuckin fresh after all these years....roots vibe.
what a tune, roots is probs my fave rapper at the mo
dis song is soooo peaceful, respect from france
Awesome
the best tune to be listening too when ur chilled out with a big phattie in ur hand believe me..
Glisten like crystal ball and stand tall, with this knowledge and overstanding...
Amazing. The flow is strong in Manuva!
SICK RHYMES!!!! cheers for the lyrics, his lines r deep
I dedicate this song to Madam Surgeon General of California with all of the love and believing in the greater good all the way down to the macro.....2020
There is no rapper like the manuva
Hey, this is the live version, which comes from Ninja Tunes Xen Cuts. It's better than the studio track on Brand New Second Hand. It is an incredible track, I mean these lyrics are better than Shakespeare, Eliot, Blake, or any damned poet in English you could name. Rodney Smith is a genius.
A hip hop colossus....this is the future of rap....those americans are damn good...but UK is super intelligent....Rod man - yeah!!!
dunno about subliminal, i think he comes out and raps what he thinks, no tricks. Propa talented agreed.
Good Old Time
Traction for action
Found it. 25 year quest complete.
All time fave Roots choon!
fucking love this track and this whole album
Need more like this!!
special ones only come around every so often

This is a live version of the song, you'll probably have to download it. I don't think it's on any albums. It might be the "BBC 1 Live" version.

Same as mate pure class.
great post this album was brilliant animal
Loved it 10 years ago - love it now.
Poetically rich shit:
Build move improve bitches
This is great.
To the poster of the video. This isnt the version off the album, its a live xen session. Just thought I'd share so others might not get confused. Cheers!
