about

“A clever little song” as I like to call it, which is musically intricate in the production. The track features the talents of Jazz, Funk and Soul artist “Xantonè Blacq” on piano and vocalist and song writer “Dyanna Fearon” on the hook. I wanted to lyrically use my wordplay to engage and bounce within the English language using one word as the basis for the whole rhyming verse each time round.

lyrics

Verse One / The rap game nuts, MC’s no gut’s / they all wanna buss but gold went dust / they see the bull crap but they don’t see us / but in God we trust / got to keep it moving hopefully it will adjust / to me an MC‘s having something to discuss / in the studio we making music no rush / and we take it right back like we reppin’ Cold Crush / we bullying the beats like Alemay and Sus / we top grade artists, we grade A plus / and got the ill vibe like Tip and Bus-a-Bus / rude boy represent far from a schmuck / into hip hop ever since a young buck / relying on myself, I ain’t into pot luck / and it’s been that way ever since I came up… came up / Chorus [x4] / need to wake up / and ever since I said I… need to wake up / Verse Two / Ever since the rat race begun in this place / I been making music that the people embrace / I ain’t about to fall off but just in case / “I’m bout to wreck your’ body” like Tribe in “The Chase” / hope I got the sound right down to your taste / this is black jazz, black jack, ten and an ace / never disgraced, got the history no one can erase / this is Funk dot D dot straight in your face / I can go tops or come down on the bass / RDA fat, other rappers got trace / so they got to go back while we stepping with grace / everyday ready come steady with the pace / a real busy dude little time here to waste / so watch this “WHAT?!” / So watch this space / Chorus / Verse Three / This is no free show / I like to do my thing like quid pro quo / not in my old hood but I’m just a stones throw from the place that I grew to the place that I grow / the place that I knew to the place that I know / I rocked an afro like ages ago / I turned rocking mics into wages and doe / a real smooth dude, all the ladies will know / plus I know how to float like Baileys and Coke / and people love my music cos maybe it’s dope / I never wanted drama so save me the soap / and screw sarcasm son save me the jokes / we never false start son save me the hoax / award winning MC it may be the votes / need the piano? Xan play me the notes / Chorus /
