peer pressure is the p, if you’re balling you be g

like disgrace to your family and shame to your clan
if you never hammer by the age of 21
now chichi don dey worry john, him sef won to carry gun

that’s real
chorus
verse 2 (poe)
look
i don’t lie about my background or try to hide the accent
try to fill the sp-ce with somebody else’s stinking absence
my presence is a present
why i call myself the future? is it cos i relegate your favourite rapper to the past tense
i’m past them
nothing much is stopping me
call themselves stars but i swear they all dots to me
their love for me is fake, f-ck em all, when i p-ss them off
a package with no content doesn’t mean whole lot
uh, yeah
now make them follow, follow me
i’m just trying to hold it down, like if say na only me
i know i make some of you proud, i see how you showing me
they ask me if i am the dopest, i tell them “i am, indeed”
uh huh
the obstacles, i see them in my view
like a henny bottle cap, they just something to remove
yeah: i brag , yeah i boast, but i always show and prove
cos, yeah: it’s what i do
chorus
verse 3 (eclipse):
to ma young rappers out there on a low
see i know what’s its like be the one wey never blow
don’t compare yourself to no one, you get ur talent just hold am
be humble all the time ,but no hesitate to show am
ogbeni just perch low, you no need to sell soul
and when the time comes, just remember i said so
cuz when u burning hot ,and your the kid with d best flow
you watch your vsop slowly turn into xo
things change, people around you change
you go from jumping tricycle to d back of a range
from those magazine lines to the front of the page
and from lacking gate fees to performing on stages
i swear! it all comes at its own time
it might take forever, it might come in no time
it all comes in good time
just work and pray, na oluwa know your own time
chorus
outro (eclipse)
i guess the point right here is, we all got different parts in life, different destinies, and: it’s only smart you figure out which one is yours and just work with it. lot of us get trapped trying to lead another person’s life, i guess that’s just the problem
like my people say they say: kwa me shey a farigum; ishigi di me kwom otu”. you gotta ask yourself. bless. you gotta keep it real, gotta keep it going, huh, gotta keep it real
eclipse! city of dreams
