Verse One
I know, you know we have the flow,
we have a loose flow like a funky banjo,
Funky DL fi’ mek’ you tee-tah-to,
tee-tah-toe, me funky right to me toe,
me put me shoes on then me ready to go,
gimme’ the mic and watch me tongue flow,
some say that dem’ a novice, but yes me a pro,
a rudebwoy Christian still a grow,
Jesus Christ wrote in me marrow,
me can’t do anything unless me father say so,
anywhere you send me, Lord I’ll go,
anywhere you lead me, Lord I’ll follow,
(tap-tap-tap-tap) me just a tip pon’ me toe,
love fi’ me bible in case you never know,
slew Satan and mek’ him bend down low,
mek’ him eat fi’ me dust ah, lick fi’ me toe ah,
MC Reuben feeling mellow,
peace inna' me heart and stress we nuh’ blow.

The debut instrumental LP by Substantial; a wide-ranging album of upbeat, bass-heavy melodies to mellow, jazzy rhythms. Bandcamp New & Notable May 29, 2018
Big but tight energy from this album that perfectly fit the closed-up vibe of the pandemic and reminded you to call your loved ones. It feels like these important folks in Amir's life each get a bit of their vibe wrapped into the song following. Sable Knight
