Ever Since

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
[x4] / need to wake up / and ever since I said I… need to wake up

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
[x4] / need to wake up / and ever since I said I… need to wake up
