    My Soul

    by: Lowkey

    [Intro:]
    No souls to sell here mate...
    They say The fool thinks himself to be wise man, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool.
    I say that, to say this...
    [Chorus:]
    You might take my life,
    But you can't take my soul!
    You can't take my soul!
    You might take my freedom,
    But you can't take my soul!
    You can't take my soul!
    You might take my life,
    But you can't take my soul!
    You can't take my soul!
    You might take my freedom,
    But you can't take my soul!
    You can't take my soul!
    [Verse 1:]
    They can't use my music to advertise for Coca Cola
    They can't use my music to advertise for Motorola
    They can't use my music to advertise for anything
    The truth, I guess that's the reason the industry won't let me in
    Refuse to be a product or brand, I'm human
    Refuse to contribute to the gangster Illusion
    Whether I'm number One, Number two, or Number Three
    I'm unique and there will never be another me
    And there will never be another you
    Be proud of who you are, don't copy what the others do
    They are not superior, you are not inferior
    When we realize that is gonna be hysteria
    Not commercial, always controversial what my pen has written
    When they listen many have risen from the mental prison
    That's why you don't see my face upon the television
    But every time I try to sleep I hear the devil singing
    [Chorus:]
    You might take my life,
    But you can't take my soul!
    You can't take my soul!
    You might take my freedom,
    But you can't take my soul!
    You can't take my soul!
    You might take my life,
    But you can't take my soul!
    You can't take my soul!
    You might take my freedom,
    But you can't take my soul!
    You can't take my soul!
    [Verse 2:]
    They can't use my music to advertise your watch or your car
    Can't use it to advertise the drink you got at the bar
    Can't use my music to advertise for anything
    The truth, I guess that's the reason the industry won't let me in
    My Integrity is the reason I'm thinking separately
    Keep your three-sixty I can do this independently
    It's likely I'm quite mad (why?)
    Cause I say with ease slavery gave the streets Nikey's and I-pads
    They don't like my rhymes, see my style is like a lecture
    But I'd rather die, than smile with my oppressor
    I'm an honourable student, with the facts and you're Ju-dish
    Your not Hip Hop or Grime, your just McDonald's music
    Not commercial, always controversial what my pen has written
    When they listen many have risen from the mental prison
    That's why you don't see my face upon the television
    But every time I try to sleep I hear the devil singing
    [Chorus: x2]
    You might take my life,
    But you can't take my soul!
    You can't take my soul!
    You might take my freedom,
    But you can't take my soul!
    You can't take my soul!
    You might take my life,
    But you can't take my soul!
    You can't take my soul!
    You might take my freedom,
    But you can't take my soul!
