ettrick shepherd - xviii lyrics

i’ma pick it up where i left off, now i’m droppin’ knowledge
natural as f-ck plus i’m hot like the tropics
step in my mind with headphones and an oculus rift
the hostility reaches your brain and knocks it to bits
ettrick shepherd aka joe hogg in this b-tch
put me in the industry and i’ll be hoggin’ the shifts
i got this on lock and got certainty with that
the return of the mercenary and hercules of rap
people offerin’ me fake champagne
if you rip me from my roots i’ma scream like a mandrake
victory is bitter sweet, i hate the d-mn taste
cos hatin’ on me is overdone like a handshake
i’m tryna best myself and their p-ssed with that
my wisdom is your gift and your gift is wrapped
pushed 3 eps tryna get known
two more and i’ll blow up like i said so
at the moment i’m layin’ the line of redstone
gonna keep ascendin’ ‘til i get to the death zone
i grind and then grind, goin’ rhyme after rhyme
three hundred in a week, that’s a sign of the times
i’m a menace, a little bit offensive
but half the time i said sh-t i never really meant it
in all seriousness you’ll never see me with a spliff
i just talk sh-t about drugs and you feed on the sh-t
limited time on this rock, the clock is tickin’
it’s goin’ down the second that i spot the opposition
salty motherf-ckers aren’t pleased with what i’ve done in this
cos my flow is so sick they can’t stomach it
currently this sh-t is just a molehill
but i’m make a mountain out of it, move it and summit it
most people just want ticks on their kicks
but i’m more focused on puttin’ them on my bucket list
ever since a youngin’ i’ve been mesmerized with rappin’
i’ve only got better, yo, i’ve recognized a pattern
several times i never thought a better life could happen
pushed through the episodes every time i had ‘em
to be honest i find it quite funny
cos when i spit the truth it makes the haters spit the dummy
y’know my story, i said it in my records
one hundred percent honest, most people don’t get it
still stick with the day ones, still stay strong
don’t got a career, but i’ma make one
i should go on tour, i should do shows
i should try and make connections with new folks
gotta be original for this sh-t to work
i’m a shepherd, i no longer follow the herd
the alias is tryna be joe
straight in with the flow, intro – i need know
i only need a pen, page and cappuccino
i’m authentic, no hacks or cheat codes
i’m a lady k!ller
but i’m elsewhere chillin’ with the goodies like ceelo
i’m wicked, that means i don’t get to rest
marvel at this superhuman like professor x
one thing you should never do is p-ss me off
the next thing to never do is think i’m soft
sorry, there’s no room for women in my pipe dream
i got a full life, fittin’ in’s a tight squeeze
don’t challenge me to a talent show
still got a lot of potential i haven’t shown
you see, i’ve been itchin’ to get it
if you ain’t got a p-ssion then your life is pathetic
this is my outlet, this is what i live for
so i’ma give my all and then give more
a cl-ssic example
spill my sh-t on the track, i guess translink’ll call me a vandal
and my train of thought has kinda gone rogue
it’s off the rails and where it is, n-body knows
the ettrick shepherd is the effective nemesis
to anorexic feminists but i flex my negatives
and i get the benefits, it was said that i would never
tread a step in this – how’d i get to everest?
i’m defiant as f-ck, i ain’t relyin’ on luck
i ain’t skitchin’ the b-mper, i’m f-ckin’ drivin’ the truck
i wanna satisfy my fans so i’m hypin’ ‘em up
and in my eyes, i don’t see a normal life as enough
i love what i do and i do what i love
so trying to stop it would be stupid as f-ck
i’m in a never-ending loop of positivity
plant the seed, let it grow and show the haters the bigotry
blockin’ out the words that don’t help me
cos i wanna climb the ladder and be wealthy
came out the shadows, i’m done being stealthy
i first got into this as an edgy twelvy
my music’s not as emo now and they mad at me
but i’m happier and found a different coping strategy
the ep was just capturing a vibe
songs that’d pump the room when i play ‘em live
is it self-esteem, arrogance or pride?
or has the best living joe finally arrived?
take a look at what the burden and demand did
eyes on me so i’m rappin’ to a higher standard
put my best foot first and dropped ‘joint’
and the reaction didn’t disappoint
started to recite revival like the bible
treated my pen and pad like sniper rifle
doin’ this is imperative to my survival
perhaps not but i gotta write it’s vital
stick around and watch as i go viral
it’s been planned out and my decision is final
i’ll grill a hater on a barbecue
there’s quite literally nothing that i would rather do
see you seem to get aggressive when you start to lose
posting your opinions but i don’t remember askin’ you
i used to want girls from school in my dms
but i got rappers slidin’ in and i don’t need them
f-cking h-ll yeah i got a rep now it’s great
but if you wanting the brand get out my face
i only f-ck with people who like the sound
and my close friends who see me on level ground
i don’t know what’s coming next
but i’m gonna blow, yo, f-ck the side effects
