| 10 years at the top of my craft
|
| Maybe not at the top of the charts
|
| But who could tell me what independent touring the globe
|
| And flows as cold as winter was in hand me down clothes
|
| Live shows of the chain Toussaint
|
| Seems I was born to be what you ain’t
|
| A man that uses his art to fight
|
| But still prospers in these hard times
|
| So what’s to hate when you’re known around the globe, it’s great
|
| And their known around the globe, it’s fake
|
| The respects so high that
|
| Left you in a jail full of lifers
|
| A man sit in silence, try that
|
| You can’t buy that, nah bruv, I am that
|
| Not because I’m a killer but because I’m a black
|
| Cause contrary to the rumours
|
| Our community is not a bunch of delinquents, we are students
|
| But don’t respect the system made by the killers
|
| The ones that paint us as the villains
|
| Back to the spittin'
|
| Listen, who’s really my competition?
|
| Really? |
| Is there somethin' that I’m missin'?
|
| These kids are kittens fighting with a pitbull
|
| Carefull my brother you’ll get your ship pulled
|
| Who can bang with us? |
| None (What!)
|
| Who will stand with us? |
| Come (What!)
|
| Who’s still doubting us? |
| Dumb (What!)
|
| We’ve been on this ting for so long now
|
| You can’t bang with us, none
|
| You won’t stand with us, son
|
| You still doubting us, dumb
|
| We’ve been on this ting for so long now
|
| I got man puzzled like «I don’t get it
|
| How is he still so well with so much message»
|
| Don’t diss the sisters, celebrate killing other blacks
|
| But still so fuckin' hard when he raps
|
| I give you a tip, swag through the roof
|
| It’s no excuse to be boring cause you tell the truth
|
| When it’s said and done, I’m still the same as when I started
|
| Ain’t having a bar for none of these artists
|
| That not giving a fuck gives me strength
|
| Now I don’t use it on us, use it on them
|
| But defend what I have to
|
| Sit down Matthew
|
| Just one if my deciples, take notes
|
| This is not music, this here is a sport
|
| Who’s ready for the ring ring fire?
|
| You man are wetter than man’s hair in Shoreditch
|
| I think it’s time to retire, heir
|
| Who can bang with us? |
| None (What!)
|
| Who will stand with us? |
| Come (What!)
|
| Who’s still doubting us? |
| Dumb (What!)
|
| We’ve been on this ting for so long now
|
| You can’t bang with us, none
|
| You won’t stand with us, son
|
| You still doubting us, dumb
|
| We’ve been on this ting for so long now
|
| It’s the father, you can call me uncle Akala
|
| What’s the palava with Ghana
|
| Fans here to Ghana, globe, every corner
|
| Punish every punk that is posing the hardest
|
| Told you we tarnish those that are garbage
|
| Get left for dead for opposing the carnage
|
| So who’s next, who’s the best of me clones?
|
| Take out a town like Obama with the drones
|
| Known for the poems that scorch gin, poor ting
|
| Probably a 12 year old girls gassed at your king
|
| But we are grown me so only grown women
|
| And real hip hop heads, we care for their opinion
|
| But where are my dominions?
|
| I swear that your Brazilian
|
| The way you got brutalised within your own kingdom
|
| By this German efficiency, without the bigotry
|
| Harder than the life of a black man in Italy
|
| Who can bang with us? |
| None (What!)
|
| Who will stand with us? |
| Come (What!)
|
| Who’s still doubting us? |
| Dumb (What!)
|
