How many y’all guys say want freestyle? |
There will be no blows not freestyle |
This style is not free, the style is expensive alright! |
Hold tight youth |
[Verse 1: Roots Manuva |
Love of self I possess, through life to death |
Yigga y’all, yes’m it’s the up front fresh |
My level is seldom seen, few and far between |
Them fools they couldn’t douse my keen |
??Lean to the mean for a Brad-picky-head? |
Slapped in the face, trapped down I guess |
Sunset to sunset, but don’t sweat yet |
??Cool and don’t fret while the doves them hold me? |
I’m picky with precision, I’ve made my decision then |
Death itself can’t hold us down |
Cause the seeds of progress, dem done get sowed |
My tough back, broke the cane in four |
Face flat to the floor but I found the strength |
To commence with a brand new sense of self |
Here go Zulu, comin' through |
Tokyo train style, hip it to the crew |
(Down like dirt man we dusted), get up! |
(Down like dirt man we dusted), get up! |
Nothing but my cuts and my rebel life flex |
But I won’t waste my breath, I’ll let actions speak |
Tough this beat stands taller than the peak of Everest |
I visualize, embrace the progress |
Chin-high, puff chest, I get right to it |
The choice is, there is no choice but to pursue it |
Soul on the mind, mind on the soul |
My struggle remains, but my inside grows |
Against the grain we shall remain, huh |
Yeah, steamin' on |
Gain enough guff, gain enough ground |
Movement tight, planet-wide flight |
In a tight set to step to the hype |
Left-to-the-field now, lookin' good |
Wait till this wayward bounce |
Proud to announce I’m steadfast — stuck in my way |
I heed not no hearsay: I put my trust in my |
Own perceptions and knowledge of self |
Get yourself into hard life — get up! |
The power of the inner eye huh |
That’s the strength of we |
Groove, word, birth to the next realm |
Motion splendid, it bring quality |
Now my foresight see with nuff clarity |
Motion splendid, it bring quality |
Now my foresight see with nuff clarity |
Hold tight, hold tight |
Hold tight, hold tight |
Hold tight, hold tight |
Hold tight, hold tight |
Hold tight, hold tight |
Hold tight, hold tight |
Hold tight, hold tight |
Hold tight, hold tight |
