“Rush,” the third track on Niche!!’s debut project Miracle, is a self-aware, energetic reflection on the pressure to move fast in life while learning the value of slowing down.
Over a laid-back yet sharp beat—featuring a vocal sample from Carter in the movie Rush Hour—Niche!! goes through memories,...
[Chorus]
I get the job done, no complaints
I deal with things like this almost every day
I'm getting older, where I need to pace myself, don't erase myself
Some days where I might rush (rush)
I might (rush)
I might rush (rush)
I might rush (rush)
I might rush (rush)
I might rush (rush)
I might rush (rush)
I might rush (rush)
I might…
[Verse 1]
Jumped through the barrier, I need more mentality
Mindset sharper than another artist smoking weed (yes)
Catching the summer breeze beneath the trees in ease (go)
We got another artist up—who’s that? That’s me (whoa)
I'm another Frozone (yes)
From another timezone (yes)
I'm up behind yo (yes)
Come snap me like a GoPro (yes), I'm going solo (mhm)
Okay, I don't bite the hand that feeds me (yes), they need me (yes)
I'm like Lee Carter, the way I'm in my 20s (what else?)
I'm not 20, but it's crazy how I watched Rush Hour almost three times (yes)
Let’s take a rewind, I’m like a bee that’s in my beehive
Stay behind the plate (go!)
I take water and then I rehydrate (go!)
My friend is like Skateboard P (go!)
Alex a big homie, I got 3-on-3 (go!)
I ain't leaving the team (go!)
There is no “I” in team, but you know what I mean
I'm like a Beyblade, the way I keep spinning (yes!)
I get off easy (yes!)
My tacos are cheesy (yes!)
That sight don't please me (ok)
I'm not a book—don't read me
I can't think of another movie but Rush Hour
I might watch it again in another hour
Maybe sit up in my bed with the best brain power
Back to back like I'm taking a shower
Back with the mediocre freestyles
I haven't cooked up music in a mean while
It comes to show that practice makes perfect
And it's not just perfect
I'm making a trick shot like Dude Perfect
Nobody is perfect—we just worth it
And I'm only scratching the surface (surface)
[Chorus]
I get the job done, no complains
I deal with things like this almost every day
I'm getting older, where I need pace myself, don't erase myself
Some days where I might rush (rush)
I might (rush)
I might rush (rush)
I might rush (rush)
I might rush (rush)
I might rush (rush)
I might rush (rush)
I might rush (rush)
I might…
