lyrics

Chorus: X2
Hold on, wait up, stop!
I think it’s time you had a look at the watch
Cos you’ll never see me give up the ghost
You still got a long way to go, oh!


Verse One:
Yo, it go, hold on, wait I got my coat on
Let me take it off and make this fresh like roll on
Cruising on the beat like a bike that I rode on
Punctuating like an exclamation or a semicolon (echo)

Cruising on the beat like a bike that I rode on
Punctuating like an exclamation or a semicolon
This goes out to the rappers that prolong
Then their career is so gone
They going down like the Titanic so I’m saying so long
Feeling like forever like the movie did go on (echo)

Yo, they going down like the Titanic so I’m saying so long
Feeling like forever like the movie did go on
But crystal clear to us like the big screen it showed on
And when it comes to shows yo I charge like a proton
And charge like a battery I really do go long
Then sit down smug like its kids that I told on (echo)

I said I charge like a battery I really do go long then
And sit down smug like its kids that I told on…


Chorus: X2



Verse Two:
Yo, it go wait up, I need you all to wake up
Instigating missions endeavour to get my cake up
Debut 97 and I opened up the gate up
For Rappers from the east and I know they’re really made up (echo)

I said debut 97 and I opened up the gate up
For Rappers from the east and I know they’re really made up
Music long term not a hobby that I take up
And fall apart easy like a pop group break up
Beautiful like sophisticated make up
Change up almost like a record label shake up (echo)

Yo, beautiful like sophisticated make up
Change up almost like a record label shake up
Putting in the time like I’m representing Seiko
Working for a peace initiative like N.A.T.O.
But don’t ever think that I am soft like play dough
I’m banging like a beat that I rock on the table (echo)


But don’t ever think that I am soft like play dough
Cos I’m banging like a beat that I rock on the table


Chorus: X2
