This song is taken from our show:
The Shutdown (2019)

lyrics

Hmmmm
Oh woah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah

Hmmmm
Oh woah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah


Uhhhh
Man, I’m an addict,
I’m a rap till I overdose
All my people understand
That I do the most

You just keep on watching
I’m the freaking host
I be giving it back
Like I’m flipping toast

And I be helping these
And supporting those
Whilst tryna be known
All around the globe

Yeah, uh, the earth ain’t flat
If you don’t agree with that
You may get hit with this bat
Man, I don’t joke around

I don’t play about
Gotta earn my crown
I’ve been busy all this time attempting to clock this out
Getting loads of letters now
Receiving a bunch of wows
Finally fixed our post
All our things are better now

Yeah, all our things are better now
Man, we were once on the struggle, but we found a route
They still ask us how we managed it, um don’t you wonder how?
Well man just know that this building getting cheddar now

Ayyyyyyyy, Ayyyyyyy
And we vibe like ayyyy, And we vibe like ayyyy

Love in the truth and we love in abyss
Come with the crew, we cruise on a blitz
Dreams and serpents like perversion purpose
As my dreams stay surfing on a burning circuit…

That’s life……. Nothing but truth
That’s life……. GOTTA breakthrough

Energy Energy, Energy bless…. that’s life

Poetry in the motion like hmmm
Motion in the poem we're moved
We're moved, we're moved

Hmmmm
Oh woah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah

Hmmmm
Oh woah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah

We never back down, slipped up
But we’re back up right now
Got a whole centre to fight for
If it means war, then it means war (x2)

Got a whole centre to fight for
Man, it means war
This ain’t about the Ps were raising
Man, it means more
This place raised us and ones before us from a young age
Ain’t no way you’re closing this door
Huh
They must be kidding right
Tryna take our only form of freedom
You must be feeling psychotic
You must be joking
To think you’ll break us apart
You must be smoking
But our group, we’re smoking hot
Kinda surprised, this roof ain’t popped
We’ve been popping off
Failure has been cropped off
Right out the picture
I gotta preach up
And teach these kids
To never give up
Lessons are taught and learnt to re-deliver
So, man, honestly “don’t give up”

We never back down, slipped up
But we’re back up right now
Got a whole centre to fight for
If it means war, then it means war (x4)
