Relentless |
Sometimes I gotta' sit back or spend the whole night |
Playing over all the events throughout my whole life |
Childhood, adolescence, teenage, adulthood |
All the memories, experiences bad or good |
The pain, the hurt, the triumphs and the jubilations |
From broke pockets to big bank remunerations |
The transformation of communication |
I’m in the studio working, I ain’t trying to leave the consumers waiting |
I’ve seen people close disappear, people toast this my year |
Then repeat the same the same old song |
I just sit on my perch while I’m putting in the work |
Shaking my head, like how they play the game so wrong? |
So I made more songs, sharpened up my writing |
And strike like a billion volts of lightning |
And roll like I’m a Knight from dark ages |
When I try my best and get it wrong I make some sharp changes |
Black and gifted, still some worry bout' these dark faces |
I’m not surprised when these world leaders racist and judge you on your pigment |
Accuse em', it’s a figment of your imagination |
So now I step with some next type of navigation |
Huh, I got my sword and my shield |
And I’m skilled, so I’ll be the last standing in the field that’s for real |
When I make a beat or write a sentence |
I do it with the kind of energy we call relentless |
Straight… I felt that |
And for the last couple years fam I fell back |
Cah' I been through hell, felt trapped like a snail |
Tried carrying this world on my frail back, still I can’t be held back |
It’s deeper than rap, can you tell that? |
It’s all authentic, this world’s tormented |
Still I said I’d world tour and I meant it |
Me and DL we both grew up in the trenches |
Hackney the ends is, the memories and friendships |
The foundation where everything got cemented |
That’s why we’re relentless… |
Yeah, but nuff times I’ve been friggin' stuck |
You know the times when everything was fucked! |
And no labels weren’t picking up |
Still I weren’t giving up |
Just like DL and that’s why you have to big him up |
I scanned the barcode of life and checked the price |
And saw the crap, rolled the dice then broke the ice |
And took a studio device and made prototypes |
Teach an entire generation how to hold the mic |
And pimp the game like Dolomite, cos' this a different kind of hustle |
I’m straight def like Dante, Jermaine, Russell |
And what’s left is brainpower, the main muscle |
Can power punch you with each hand, that’s eight knuckles |
I make my talents multiply like in the parables of Jesus |
And I just need some music, some apparel and some sneakers |
Decide what I decide without me having to give reasons |
And treating everyday like it’s a fight to keep my freedom |
They say the revolution won’t be televised |
That’s why the population’s favourite time is ten to five |
So I don’t really care about your enterprise |
You got stocks and shares, I got rhymes to memorize |
So I don’t have to blink twice |
I saw you the first time and I’m cool like drink ice |
There’s a war going on outside no man is safe from |
They killing Generals down to a dude they took a chain from |
So I got my sword and my shield, and I’m skilled |
So I’m ready and I’m standing in the field that’s for real |
When I make a beat or write a sentence |
I do it with the kind of energy they call relentless |
