Illy - Wave lyrics
[Illy - Wave lyrics]
Straight out of Melbourne to melt 'em
Run and go tell them
Suff' said, "may never get a damn 'thank you'
But they sure as hell gonna
Get a 'you’re welcome'", i felt that
My blueprint, their shelter, swear I
Salute king to king, besides that
Bow to no man
Took a faint hope chance with both hands
Knowing life harsh as cones
Stacked outta coke cans
Rap took the world over Rosebud to Rosecrans
Clowns shoot a lotta cheap
Shots that got round
Since I popped out on top ground
Like I haven't spent half a
Life gettin' raps locked down
Like, what you think, I forgot how? Please
Y'all need specs to see my vision
Your bars ain't shit next to these ambitions
See me, they see red, my only reaction
Was platinum then platinum then
Platinum then platinum
Okay, I'm on a wave, try to catch up
Way back from the first to the latest
From the start to the standing ovations
Through it all I been like
Okay, I'm on a wave, try to catch up
Way back swore my next be my greatest
Still my closing and opening statement
Through it all I been like
Go fuck yourself, you ain't with it
I'm way more than these lame
Rappers with lame lyrics
About making it big, I did it
And didn't change for shit
They get a buzz, watch 'em act way different
Right?
I get the digs, nothing personal in it
Shit a business, do the same
We traded positions
I mean, take personal taste out it
Who 'bout it
What they talking, bank balances
Platinum or smash albums, what?!
Don't need to brag, I do it for fun
Their career album sales, I do it in one
Week that is, I been that lit, I give a fuck
What your friend's friend's feedback is
Every time I drop it's "jeez
Again?" No signs of quittin'
From not having a pot to
Piss in to pissin' off
Every Aussie rap critic
They all chase the lights
I'm the one who admit it, you
Want it, come get it, like
Okay, I'm on a wave, try to catch up
Way back from the first to the latest
From the start to the standing ovations
Through it all I been like
Okay, I'm on a wave, try to catch up
Way back swore my next be my greatest
Still my closing and opening statement
Through it all I been like
Yeah do one, w way more to soon come
I juggle bars and charts, I walk and chew gum
The truth, I'm the who in the whodunit
Go for everyone old heads, newcomers
Who you think I'd to listen to?
My people always backed what the kid'd do
I'll go with them
'cause it isn't dudes who ain't
Fit to lace my boots
When they get in the booth, game on, brother
Stick and move
I still show improve even with zero to prove
Three years on the move
You know that I got juice
If you only did a mile in
My shoes you wouldn't suit
And you don't need to get it for
Me to know that's the truth
And my work ethic outweighed the
Pen and the pad
And I wrung every drop out the talent I have
And put rap to the front
My forever first love
Like cowabunga, motherfucker, guess surf's up
Okay, I'm on a wave, try to catch up
Way back from the first to the latest
From the start to the standing ovations
Through it all I been like
Okay, I'm on a wave, try to catch up
Way back swore my next be my greatest
Still my closing and opening statement
Through it all I been like
Okay, I'm on a wave, try to catch up
Way back from the first to the latest
From the start to the standing ovations
Through it all I been like
Okay, I'm on a wave, try to catch up
Way back swore my next be my greatest
Still my closing and opening statement
Through it all I been like go
