Illy, PEZ - Where Ya Been lyrics

Man, PEZ, what up? (yeah)
Like I've been gone for a little bit
I didn't think it was that long, but
(Where you been, mate?)

Yeah, man, I guess I took the summer off
(Why?) why? I was buzzing, didn't wanna stop
Flying seaplanes above the yacht
Threeways on the beach
Smoke signs to the southern cross
These days, just another notch on the belt
Hell nah
Leave the holidays for the others to
I toured so much the flight
Path's stuck on loop
A guy stopped me, asked what'd I been up to
Dude i've been everywhere man
Where the fuck were you?
Sucks to come off rude, well nah, it doesn't
'Cause it's fucking true, my luggage frayed
But ain't underused


The shit's legendary, and new tracks ready
Full of beats, rhymes and
Melodies, my peeps like
"They better be dope"
I asked 'em last time to remember me
Shit, I hope they got a damn fine memory
It's time to come back, gotta pick it up
Slack for a minute or three
And the fans gonna scream

Where ya been? I haven't seen
Ya face in a minute
Been looking, nowhere to be seen
Man, where ya been? Checking for
Your new songs daily
The wait gets worse by the week
I wonder where ya been
I wonder where ya been
Hear it all the time, man
Like it was my theme man I'm back
You'd be crazy if you thought I'd leave
So relax, put your mind at ease
Yo PEZ where you been?

Man, in Vietnam and Milan
Off to Amsterdam, then Japan, then to France
Every second day was on a plane on a holiday
Went around the world and saw a
Lot of shit along the way word? Nah
In truth I've just been in my house (Shit)
Spending most my time here, sitting round
Chilling out stressing on the album
I just want to get it finished now
'Cause, I been feeling like I'm missing out
Shit
Been sick, but I don't need nobody's sympathy
'Cause my health helped me look
At life a little differently
Instead of going out, partying like every day
I just gotta stay home and try to meditate
But, it's all good, finally I'm on board
And now I'm in it for the long haul, yeah
I can't wait to stand with Illy up on stage
At a sold out show and
Hear the whole crowd go

Where ya been? Ain't seen your
Face in a minute
Been looking, nowhere to be seen
Man, where you been? Checking for
Your new songs daily
The wait gets worse by the week
I wonder where ya been
I wonder where ya been
Hear it every day, man, like it was my theme
Man I'm back
You'd be crazy if you thought I'd leave
So relax, put your mind at ease, Illy
Where you been?

Man I've been on tour, wishing I was home
(Sure) nah, if anything I'm living
For the shows more
Looking back to '04, I was so poor
Fuck eating off rap
I couldn't buy my own fork
It's no sure thing, but we don't care
Always, hopeful it would lead somewhere
And now nearly every MC seems to be known
In three years
Can't believe how the scene's grown
And rappers can afford to leave home
And teens got Aussie Hip-Hop
On their ringtone
Even old folks are down with the lingo
It's a trip, I've been everywhere
Everyone's loving this shit
Yeah, who'd of thunk it would
Be something this big?
Hopefully this is just the beginning
(yeah, I hope so, P)
What can you say, man? It feels like a dream
If you don't know what we mean, then fuck

Where ya been? I haven't seen
Ya face in a minute
Been looking, nowhere to be seen
Man, where ya been? Checking for
Your new songs daily
The wait gets worse by the week
I wonder where ya been
I wonder where ya been
Hear it all the time, man
Like it was my theme man I'm back
You'd be crazy if you thought I'd leave
So relax, put your mind at ease
Where ya been?
