INTRO:
Where do you rep?
Who do you claim?
What’d you believe in?
What is your aim?
Is it money?
Is it fame?
Is it honeys?
Is it change?
Is it gain,
without pain?
levitate, David Blaine?
Rose from the concrete, what is your name?
Boy boy what you looking for to spark the flame?
VERSE 1:
I’m looking for the lights, of course!
Learning to ride on a driving course
With a 5 legged horse named charlie,
2 and a half men sitting on a harley,
could hardly believe I would get so far but I’m raising the bar, see.
In the back of a car seat, up in Bali with no car keys, Imma imma imma imma
I want a piece of the pie
gimme that 3.14159
Gone till the sun don't shine.
I'm on a quest no stress and I'll take whats mine
Live life like life is a prize, if I want it imma get imma die for the light
I do do do do do...
Reaching for the sky with the devil on my shoulder,
Days are getting longer, getting harder and I’m colder
Look into the mirror at the person getting older,
I don’t know where next to go
VERSE 2:
Rewind two double oh five,
was a little kiddie in a german inner city,
I wasnt really pretty
So the guys didn’t like,
Harm no foul bye gons be gone by,
All about time so I learn to quantize
Can’t waste mine on what,if,and,why
Never on a level with the likes of these guys,
I was just an awkward child,
Sort of sweet like tate and lyle,
Picked a pen and worked a style,
Thought provoke and run them wild,
I’ve been forth and back for miles,
European chosen child, West African sorta smile
But I see you wonder who I rep
BRIDGE:
Who I claim?
What do I believe in?
What is my aim?
Is it money?
Is it it fame?
Is it honeys?
Is it change?
Is it gain,
without pain?
Is it to levitate, David Blaine.
Rose from the concrete, what is your name?
Boi boi what you looking for to spark the flame?
I’m looking the heights of course,
Learning to climb on the highest horse,
Even if its a horse named Charlie,
Too many man try bar me,
So I’m looking at em like bar me?
You could never bar me,
Pigs get wrapped quick like Salami,
You man can’t do nuttin for me,
Trust me
VERSE 3:
Still stand my ground, rep my town,
I dont even know where I come from now.
Used to British like a sterling pound,
now I’m american in all of my sounds,
accents watered, slaughtered down.
Still want the mandem to come around.
Still wanna rep for the UK sound,
Grime is the origin, work from the ground
I would watch AKA back when it was U,
JK2 and the Roll Deep crew,
Wot u call it? Garage? Wot u call it? Urban?
Wot u making? Pop? I don’t know genre for certain.
I got two-step bops that’ll make a man bezerk ‘n
When this new shit drops, I dont wanna hear your verbiage
Closing curtains on the lot, saying I would not see purpose
All my curses are on purpose, I’m a teacher decent learner,
Be extinct or nature nurture with it.
BRIDGE:
So where do you rep?
Who do you claim?
What’d you believe in?
What is your claim?
Is it money?
Is it it fame?
Is it honeys?
Is it change?
Is it gain,
without pain?
Is it to levitate, David Blaine.
Rose from concrete, what is your name?
Rude boy do you really think you spark the flame?
I’m looking like I, of COURSE
I’m a finite force
I’m the light and the source, of course
oh lord, compacting a final thought
This world neither mine or yours,
Still work to the final fourth, trust me trust me, trust me...
