Add top and bottom padding to UILabel using Swift

Question

How do you add padding to the top and bottom of the content within a UILabel?

I have tried to find the means of doing it via NSAttributedString text but cannot seem to find a way to apply margins to the top and bottom only.

Do this in swift :-

class Label: UILabel {
    override func drawTextInRect(rect: CGRect) {
        super.drawTextInRect(UIEdgeInsetsInsetRect(rect, UIEdgeInsets(top: 0, left: 10, bottom: 0, right: 10)))
    }
}
