The official YouTube channel of The Streets.

Mike Skinner's recordings as the Streets marked the first attempt to add a degree of social commentary to Britain's party-hearty garage/2-step (and later grime) movement. Skinner was initially an outsider in the garage scene. Although his initial recordings appeared on Locked On, the premiere source for speed garage and 2-step from 1998 to the end of the millennium, he listened first to hip-hop, then house and jungle.


The Streets biggest hits include “Blinded By The Lights”, “Dry Your Eyes”, “Don’t Mug Yourself”, “Fit But You Know It”, “Let’s Push Things Forward” and “Has It Come To This”. The iconic Streets catalogue also includes the albums “Original Pirate Material”, “A Grand Don’t Come For Free”, “The Hardest Way to Make an Easy Living”, “Everything Is Borrowed” and “Computers and Blues”.

Lyrics:
Cause this world swallows souls
And when the blues unfold, it gets cold, silence burns holes
You're going mad, perhaps you always were
But when things was good, you just didn't care
This is called irony
When you most need to get up, you got no energy
Time and time shit'll happen, the dark shit's unwrapping
But no-one's listening, your mates are laughing
Your brethren's fucking and then you start hating
Your stomach starts churning and you mind starts turning
So smoke another draw
It won't matter no more, but the next day still feels sore
Rain taps on your window, always did though
But you didn't hear it when things were so-so
You're on your own now, your little zone
You were born alone and believe me, you'll die alone
Weed becomes a chore
You want the buzz back so you follow the others onto smack

Just try and stay positive

Feels nice and still, good thing about brown is it always will
It's easy, no-one blames you
It's that world out there that's fucked you
You're no less of a person and if God exists, He still loves you
Just remember that, the more you sink
The further back from that brink
Maybe you have lifetime scars
And you think tattoos might be more fitting, but who's picking?
Searching for yourself, you find demons
Try and be a free man and grasp that talisman
'Cause you're the same as I am
We all need our fellow man, we all need our Samaritan
Maybe I'm better looking than you, though
Maybe I've got more dough, but am I happier? No
Get the love of a good girl
And your world will be much richer than my world
And your happiness will uncurl

Just try and stay positive

"Stop dreaming", people who say that are blaspheming
They're doing nine-to-five and moaning
And they don't want you succeeding when they've blown it
And your idols – who are they? They too dreamt about their day
Positive steps will see your goals
Whether it's dollars or control, feel the gold
I ain't helping you climb the ladder, I'm busy climbing mine
That's how it's been since the dawn of time
If you reach a cul-de-sac, the world turns it's back
This is your zone, it's like blackjack
He might get the ace or the top one
So organise your two's and three's into a run
And then you'll have fucked him, son
And for that you'll be the better one
One last thing before you go, though
When you feel better tomorrow, you'll be a hero
But never forget today, you could be back here, things can stray
But what if you see me in that window?
You won't help me, I know
That's cool, just keep walking where you go
Carry on through the estate
Stare at the geezers so they know you ain't lightweight
And go see your mates
And when they don't look happy, play 'em this tape

Just try and stay positive

I hope you understand me
I ain't no preaching fucker and I ain't no do-goody-goody either
This is about when shit goes pear-shaped
And if you aren't, or never have been at rock bottom
Then good luck to you in the big wide world
But remember that one day, shit might just start crumbling
Your bird might fuck off or you might lose your job
It's when that happens that what I'm talking about
Will feel much more important to you
So if you ain't feeling it
Just be thankful that things are cool in your world
Respect to BC
