[Verse 1]
There's only two things written on my shopping list
Success.. Patience is right on top of it
So close yet so far, the vision through my binoculars
You can't fight a, half man, half octopus
Will I ever make it? ... Damn the awkwardness
The contrast between, the realists and the optimists
The journey to Hip Hop Metropolis
Ever found greatness, lurking in your oesophagus?
There's no sleep, till I'm laying dead where my coffin is
Hard work is an orphan, I guess that I'm adopting it
There's no other option kid
Ill only freestyle if success is what the topic is
Ag, this is the realest sh** I ever wrote
I lost my script book, now there's a rapper spitting better quotes
Punchlines make your lips pop
5 words, Priddy Ugly Is Hip Hop..
[Chorus]
I'm deep in the pool
I'm drowning and I'm leaking the proof
Truth, I got a demon or two
I'm seeking to prove
I mean, I Ain't eager to lose
And I'm not leaving 'til I'm mean and improved
My only fear is that
I won't ever hear em clap
Clap.. Clap..
My only fear is that
I won't ever hear em clap
Clap.. Clap..
[Verse 2]
So I'm chilling in a room full of strangers
What's strange is, I Ain't have to mention what my name is
Is this what fame is? Being shameless?
Half naked girls and some drunk entertainers..
Is this what fame does..?
With all of these groupies, how I treat my girl with the same love
Sleeping with Boity, or somebody famous
This can't be a story about, how a nikka came up
Man, I'm trying keep sane in this industry
Trying to change the game while maintaining the synergy
So, toast for me and pop a bottle for my chapter
In a world where everybody is a model and a rapper
A blogger or a dancer, photographers and some actors
The industry cooks you up, then its swallowing you after
They rocking Jay's, I'm k**ing them in my flip flops
5 Words, Priddy Ugly Is Hip Hop..
[Chorus]
I'm deep in the pool
I'm drowning and I'm leaking the proof
Truth, I got a demon or two
I'm seeking to prove
I mean, I Ain't eager to lose
And I'm not leaving 'til I'm mean and improved
My only fear is that
I won't ever hear em clap
Clap.. Clap..
My only fear is that
I won't ever hear em clap
Clap.. Clap..
[Verse 3]
We all gotta grind 'til our teeth ache
Climb mountains 'til our arms and our feet ache
But keep faith, 'cause when u start to eat cake
And go corporate, you the nikka that the streets hate
To keep safe, I keep a Bible in my brief case
On the road to destiny, just know you bound to meet fate
Be the best.. No, I'm trying to be great
They tryna beat Khuli, I'm trying to beat drake
Trying to go places, I Ain't seen before
Trying to cop the type of gear that they Ain't seen in stores
Perform, and have the crowd screaming "MORE"
But how the f** I'm gonna do it, when there's Kiernan Forbes
I living less, and I'm dreaming more
And tall prayer, always makes your demons small
Time waits for no man, time only tick-tocks
5 words, Priddy Ugly Is Hip Hop
[Chorus]
I'm deep in the pool
I'm drowning and I'm leaking the proof
Truth, I got a demon or two
I'm seeking to prove
I mean, I Ain't eager to lose
And I'm not leaving 'til I'm mean and improved
My only fear is that
I won't ever hear em clap
Clap.. Clap..
My only fear is that
I won't ever hear em clap
Clap.. Clap..
