Yizzy - 3 Minutes to Live

3 Minutes To Live provides an emotional take on London’s knife crime issues, whilst highlighting the value and preciousness of life.
The video is directed by award-winning filmmaker Simon Aukes - known for making the online hit series Shiro's Story with Rapman.
In a year with the all time highest recorded rate of knife crime in the UK, Yizzy addresses the issue by conveying how too many people take life for granted - switching the focus from the statistics and politics reported on daily to something ultimately more human.

[@YizzyOfficial]

I’ve seen a couple people have asked for the lyrics so here you go: 3 Minutes To Live (Lyrics) That’s right, I’m on the floor tryna fight for my life, It’s that, same old story, Got stabbed a few times with a knife, And I don’t think that I’m gonna make it, I feel cold inside, il be dead in about 3 minutes, If they don’t stop the bleeding in time, Another brudda dead it’s dumb, My time is up in this world I’m leaving, So can somebody phone my mum, Tell her that i wont be home this evening, The mandem look sad, They felt the pain when i said this rhyme, Before i go can you tell my Dad, I’m sorry that we never made up in, time, So what would you do? If you had 3 Minutes To Live? Because we as people We take life for granted And I can’t believe that shit, Yeah thats me, Lying on the floor i think i blacked out, I couldn’t even breathe but i never tapped out, Cah mummy never raised a brudda to back down So i keep on, fighting, fighting, Just to stay alive I’m back now, Paramedics said suttin bout an artery, And can everybody move to the background, Somebody please help me, I can’t feel my legs no more, Thinking I could of gonna anywhere I want in life why the fuck did i choose this door, And to that dickhead yute that stabbed me brudda why the fuck did you kill me for, Got so many young kids that are dying nowadays why the fuck did you kill one more, black out, I was never on time i was gonna improve but I can’t be late no more, I swear they say i’ve never felt so alive yeh I can’t relate no more, Like who’s the best baller alive fam i can’t debate no more, When I got stabbed by a Griezmann shit got Messi and I can’t explain no more See I could of had children, A little beautiful brown eyed daughter, If she couldn’t skate, then daddy would of taught her, And how to swim not be scared of the water, And even though you won’t be born, Coz of these stab wounds i can’t hug you, This is a note to what could of been my children just know Daddy would of loved you, Yeah daddy would of been there to guide you in life to not make mistakes like he, Yeah daddy would of been there to kiss it all better when you scrapped your very first knee, Now, Daddy won’t be with you, You wont even exist, All coz this yute was intent on taking my life your taking this piss Nah i going out like this, fuck that, I claw my way from the dark and come back I ain’t gonna leave nobody with no contact for them to be sitting by the grave with cognac, Somebody better try con-tact the lord for my soul and tell him that i want that, I don’t care what a man’s gotta do to survive just tell the breddah that a mans on that If i gotta keep fighting then I’m on that, il change my life for the better, il-even stop walking with a complex, And i won’t chase this vendetta, il tell my mum that i love her, Every single day on the phone, So please can you grant my wish, All i really want is just to go home, That’s the sound of my heartbeat fading, Telling myself no don’t go sleep, For the last time I’m not ready to leave what’s that daylight that a brudda can see if i just believe, nobody grieves, Hold up lemme just try and breathe, **GASP**
