Prince Among Men |
RAPPER: Yo, yo watch out, here we come, I never trust no-one |
Make my own laws up ever since day one |
Make my own rules, I’m a choose my own life |
And who are you to say how I spend my nights? |
Whether bustin' off steel or I’m bustin' on mikes |
Well I’m turning out lights or I’m ready to fight |
Trust no-one (no-one), same man who brought me here |
Was the same man who left me broke and disappeared |
Shed a tear for the future, don’t know what it holds |
You can have no clothes, look up and strike gold |
And the world’s so cold I ask my own questions |
Find my own answers, learn my own lessons |
Count my own blessings, book my own sessions |
Worst comes to worst, got my own Smith & Wessons |
Don’t bother me, I’m screaming, fuck authority |
I hate those cats with a suit and a tie |
GREEN: Starts to come apart |
Our high regard for making marks (and being organised) |
It’s hard to just discard |
Our being smart for losing heart (you've got the Gorgan’s eyes) |
Run for cover superstars and |
Show me that it’s over |
I’m telling you |
Because the man to believe in now |
Is just leavin' |
You’ll never find his likes again |
RAPPER: Yes I try to believe in myself and walk surely |
You know your boring speaches can’t do nothing for me |
The world saw me and gave me no other thing |
With the prince amongst men, who will soon be king |
Sit on a gold throne, yeah rule everything |
Or maybe just a page in a young man’s dream |
Can’t really conversate if you’re ain’t down with my team |
Can’t really set it straight if you don’t the team |
So live your own life, how you feel about that? |
Well I’m a keep making money and watch my funds stack |
They watched the craft stack, I watch the format |
Technique is what they lack, I write my own rap |
As a matter of fact, when you turn up the track |
Make sure it sounds phat, how d’you feel about that? |
Yo it’s time to rule the world, man your positions |
I’m out to the world, peace, I hope you listen |
GREEN: Sure, it all depends on circumstances |
(But the chance is that you never know) |
More than means and ends but only glimpses |
(Of an answer then it’s time to go) |
Run for cover Ubermensch |
Show me that it’s over |
I’m telling you |
'Cause we’re the men to believe in now |
But we’re leaving |
You’ll never find our like again |
'Cause we’re so crazy |
We got that dark in our hearts |
So watch your apple carts |
'Cause here we go |
In duplicate |
Indifferent to rain |
Indifferent to pain |
Indifferent to pain |
Never to me, never to me, never to me now |
Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me now |
Never to me, never to me, never to me now |
Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me now |
