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 |
