prime (aus) - alone lyrics
[intro: prime]
i’m just ridin’ round my city faded
[chorus: prime]
i’m just ridin’ round my city faded
give a f+ck if i make it home
i’m usually with my boys and my girl
but tonight i’m tryna ride all alone
[verse 1: prime]
i got the world in my hands, and i’m about to throw it
i been plantin’ the seeds, now i’m about to grow it
you only get one shot, i’m not about to blow it
feel like i’m one of the best there is, and i’m about to show it
i didn’t write this sh+t to medicate the weak
i’m just a simple rapper, i ain’t never made a beat
tonight is like a party where we celebrate our feats
but i’m still feelin’ like a guest who’s only there to make a speech (ayy)
i didn’t plan to work on this for seven days a week
but i don’t wanna miss a thing, so i never stay asleep
i elevate my peeps, i devastate the beat (yep)
the other dudes get shelved, boy, mba elite (elite)
the problem is these rap fans don’t know what to vote
and the rappers are tony abbott, wanna stop the boat
another candidate, hand to shake, fan to make
i’m confused by the love, but i understand the hate
and since i’m losin’, i struggle to understand my fate
but i still keep on chasin’ all the same though
you know how the game go, workin’ with the same flow
chasin’ after pots of gold when i ain’t seen a rainbow
i wanna work towards this, but lately, it’s a lame job
no pay for havin’ days off, maybe i’m just brainwashed
maybe i’m a rocket ship that’s failin’ at the takeoff
‘cause i’m producin’ fire, but i’m stayin’ in the same spot
and i ain’t willin’ to lose it, my heart is still in the music
and when it beats, i feel like spittin’ my new sh+t
i learned ambition isn’t exclusive
so when they question my talent, i was always willin’ to prove it
but now i’m creepin’ on a jagged line of people wantin’ battle rhymes
and me that wants to +n+lyse the demons that i have inside
in my head, it’s illegal to be satisfied
when i look at options, i just see the things i haven’t tried
it feels like i look perfect in a straight jacket
‘cause i’d rather be a good person than a great rapper
that’s irrelevant to a rappers’ accomplishments
try and pair ‘em up, but they’re really apples and oranges
it feels like all i got left is a sharp right (sharp right)
opponents invisible, somethin’ that i can’t fight (can’t fight)
every day i pick myself up, it always starts bright
but on a dark night, i’m heath ledger in a past life
i came to realise that, actually, it’s more
when i’m gone, they’ll show me love they never had for me before
i’m not tryna pick up grammies or academy awards
tryna infiltrate these people with the tracks that i perform (ayy)
if i was cold from the disrespect or hot from the rejection (it’s ’cause)
it’s ‘cause it’s all a dream that i been on from the inception (uh)
how the f+ck they turn you down when you offer them perfection? (uh)
i stayed straight, you turned in a opposite direction (direction)
i see a lot of rappers, dudes that you would say are nice
manoeuvre through the stage and mics, but losin’ at the game of life
so let me say it like we’re drivin’ on a rainy night
get too close to who’s in front of you, it’s you that pays the price (price)
[chorus: prime]
(and i’m just) i’m just ridin’ round my city faded
give a f+ck if i make it home
i’m usually with my boys and my girl
but tonight i’m tryna ride all alone
[bridge: miguel]
hold you like a brother
treat you like a friend
respect you like a lover
oh, woah, oh, woah, oh, woah
[verse 2: purpose]
uh
this is music to persist to, words to live by (live by)
words that when i die, i still live through
a plan to stick to, to commit to
a door to get my foot in, a wall to put my fist through
it’d never be clear why we exist (nah)
i’m afraid of nothin’, so the concept of fear to me’s a trip
everybody has a purpose, you can feel it when it hits
once you have it, you’re like an addict reelin’ for a fix (uh)
it’s fulfilment (yeah), peace through resilience (yeah)
the stillness in the night as i peel off in the distance (yeah)
it’s the [?] that’s only understood by children (yeah)
can’t be seen or touched, but you know it when you feel it (feel it)
see, i am to hip+hop what drugs were to king’s cross
my sight’s been locked, this here is the k!ll shot (bang)
the shuttle erupted, but i survived it
i know my way out the maze, ‘cause i designed it, it’s timeless
[chorus: prime, purpose]
(and i’m just) i’m just ridin’ round my city faded
give a f+ck if i make it home
i’m usually with my boys and my girl
but tonight i’m tryna ride all alone
