rival - soul speech lyrics
[hook]
i grew up on so solid crew
in 21 seconds, i wanted an audi
but it was man like wu
that showed me cash rules everything around me
and man like kano who showed me
you gotta give ’em nuttin’ but bars
but man like nas?
he taught “ether”, there’s no need to be calm
[verse]
i speak from the heart
new year but it’s still me on the graft
still here, watch man reach for the charts
get dropped, now they wanna reach for their bars
see it with ‘nough of man
by next year, there’ll be another man
guys in the scene bred like “f-ck it, fam”
i don’t understand
it seems enough cosigns and then they love a man
we let the first mobo grime award go to a rapper
not to say that he ain’t sick but
he’s done more work as a rapper, but
congratulations, not to him but all those nominations
that built all the real foundations
swinging it out on those radio stations
what happened to the build up?
times of building character
times where you had to build up
before a twitter page or a camera
now it’s all about press
views and internet ratings
what happened to the days when
moments weren’t captured in jpeg?
i’ve been out here
in this music scene tryna get it
but the truth is, i don’t get it
i think most of these man are pathetic
bunch of talkers who don’t talk up
circus acts, just clowning
speak their views when the camera’s on
when the camera’s off, their mouth, nothing comes out it
i came back from the mountain
touring, fresh off an outing
now i’ve got a likkle man sending
but my wave over here, i’ll drown him
so yeah man, yeah man, yeah man
if you really wanna war, we can do it here, fam
that’s the problem with these mcs
they wanna reach levels they are not near, man
don’t wanna see a next man shine
they’d rather act like an eediot
don’t wanna see a new man shine
they’re just tryna build hype off their old achievements
it’s getting crazy
it seems less about bars than mentions
it’s a popularity contest
depending on your bredrins
and i ain’t even mad
it’s just one of them things
that’s not spoken, one of them things
most won’t like my views
but i’ll bet you relate to one of them things
i just speak it casually
voicing the truth, do that naturally
grime music i love but it lacks originality
but we’ll see what happens in ‘015
you’re gonna see what happens in ‘015
you’re gonna see what happens in ‘015
you’re gonna see what happens in ‘015
