Kannon - Up the Ante lyrics
Intro: *2Pac's voice* Mehn its like the only thing we can really leave behind is culture is music you know? and and dignity and determination that's what we had Verse 1: It's been a long time since I hopped on a beat like this/rap game don enter comatose and I'm tryna revive it/i dey play waka pa** on a daily basis I no like this kind script/me sef wan be protagonist oh Lord please rewrite it/I'm a Soldier climbing to the highest rank no such thing as gravity/dem talk say Only way I'll get to five star is when i trek from charity/I solemnly swear to prove them wrong I'll go beyond it/never going back to days i put out songs and got no responses/finally here finally here I'm the one you are waiting for/knock or press the bell like a gentleman not me I'll break the door/your plan to stop me is greatly flawed oliver twist i keep craving more/so I'm putting in work putting in work like a man born in eighty four/...saw a girl last night the type you'll probably k** for/so fine you'd rather be with her than have a song that will top the billboard/smile on her face but i could tell that something was brewing inside/then she opened up to me talk say her man ain't doing it right Chorus: She say she want that good good (that good music) so I give her more (give her give her) Turn the volume up blast it till the speakers burst (speaker speaker) Don't mind your nosy neighbors they don't want to see you shine teeth (that's right) I'm here to make you happy (no lie) every single time I spit I up the ante and kii them Up the ante and kii them *6 Every time I spit every time I spit Verse 2: I be up all night listening to femi kuti/Feeling sorry sorry for all of y'all trying hard to execute me/i dey strategize how to survive this goddamn scary movie/I'm so omari west can't tell me nothing imma just let me do me/ahh could take a whole day to write down the cities I go like tour/with a pretty young thing I can fight for..even if she 5'4/I'm quite sure that I'm too crazy for the psych ward/before you copy paste my stuff tell me how you'll feel if I bite yours/if i don't like you then I don't like you why should I pretend/for thinking that he can step to me your favorite rapper is slightly dense/why should I relent I've come this far why should I descend/I really want some o' that bill gate money even if na 5 percent/Saw a girl last night the type you'll probably k** for/too fine you'd rather be with her than have a song that will top the billboard/word to her bouncer brother I no go let you hinder me/no time for plenty grammar I have the stuff that your sister needs/ Chorus: She say she want that good good (that good music) so I give her more (give her give her) Turn the volume up blast it till the speakers burst (speaker speaker) Don't mind your nosy neighbors they don't want to see you shine teeth (that's right) I'm here to make you happy (no lie) every single time I spit I up the ante and kii them Up the ante and kii them *6 Every time I spit every time I spit
