purpose - smells like victory lyrics
[interluede]
today’s the day that everything changes
one way or another
it’s important to me that you understand that
[intro: purpose]
i never been more ready
i’m getting tired of telling ‘em already
my generation’s most antic-p-ted
if you don’t wanna get with the program
switch the station
[verse 1: purpose]
my 59fifty burgundy my fear to fit me type sickly
i love my life gritty, since i’m about my business i’m busy
but i still hold it down for the kids in my city
i’m a menace to society, never let ‘em silence me
till i’m an aus veteran like bias b
if you bring your girl around, you better keep your eye on me
unless you keep an eye on her, just bet she gonna slide with me
never been one for the pressures of sobriety
sh-t, i crash your party in an ellipsis hoodie
your gangstas gone bro, soft his milk and cookies
for ten years i been chasing that feeling like “caaa”
even despite a little hate i’m the realest by far
too ill to typecast, sh-t, don’t hate the game or player
just deal me my cards
f-ck a one hit wonder, i’ll make you wonder how one hit
could instantly render me unfit for the public
drunk kick like a roundhouse, the rest is history
smell that -sniff, sniff-
smell like victory
[chorus]
the last note has been sung, the day has finally come
when i woke up this morning, today it smelt like victory
today it smelt like victory
[verse 2: purpose]
rappers used to get mad when i told ‘rm i’m the best, look
i guess they came to terms with it like a textbook
i got drive like i’m a lead foot, look at that
i speed it up and cook it back like a meth cook
left foot, right foot, left hook, right hook
this my life, another page out the rhyme book
and it just trip us all, can’t be pigeonholed
success is the best form of revenge and my dish is cold
i can’t say it enough pal, i p-p-pushed through the politics
played for some tough crowds
sometimes i even thought that my patience would run out
like the buzz was a drug and i was waiting for the come down
brain feeling run down, see p we don’t take no sh-t
so they label us tough now
from stables to clubhouse, the place where i bust out
wild and train up the cubs now
mr t in the cut, yeah, what up oars?
i keep the cut raw like a buzzsaw
i’m turning hiphop back into a bloodsport
put my name in your rhyme and you’re f-cking done for
rest in pieces, i pledge allegiance to every street i had to tread to see this
i’m feeling blessed like jesus
adelaide’s best kept secret, ho!
[chorus]
the last note has been sung, the day has finally come
when i woke up this morning, today it smelt like victory
today it smelt like victory
its time to take this thing we got to the next level
slowly but surely i’ll uphold the foundations laid by those here before me
oh yeah, i’m gonna be the people’s champ, but i ain’t gonna be the champ the day that you want me to be the champ, imma be the champ the way i wanna be
i’ve travelled far and near my dear
made music for the world to hear
turn me up
turn me up
[chorus]
the last note has been sung, the day has finally come
when i woke up this morning, today it smelt like victory
today it smelt like victory
slowly but surely
