Sway - Little Derek lyrics
(Yeah Uh-huh) [Chorus: x2] Little Derek's Ok (yeah) Little Derek's doing fine (fine) Little Derek's doing cool (cool) You know how we do Stepped out my house I'm feelin fresh and brand new Olu did the trimry and I done the hairdo And everything I wear's new Mahadashi Jacket, Puma top, Box-fresh jeans and nike cam boots Sprayed a little versace dreamer on me too So every girls who pa** is like oo-oooh Police don't pull us over like woo-woo Cuz their kids watch MTV and channel U But life ain't always been fine like baby blue Cuz when u do UK rap your number two Cuz the USA ain't giving us space to break true So I'm on the grind trying to pioneer a breakthrough Gotta keep the punters happy, to tango it takes two And it seems like I'm the rapper the people take to I've never had alot, with what I've got I've made do And now I'm blowin up in this b**h like move-move-move [Chorus: x2] Step out the ride I'm feeling nice and quite fly I'm trying to reach the top I see the top is quite high Steady on my grind, tryin to get my face up in the source So I keep by faith up in the boss Up in the bright white sky Getting calls from these record label bosses like hi Head up in inside their offices And listen to their promises But no-one's made me offers yet that I could not deny And I been making profits of this my mix tapes raw Life ain't always been pretty like nah On the north side of the city where its gritty like pie We did what we had to done to get by Hoping not get caught up in no silly drive-by Little derek wrote lyrics while the others got high And he ended up in HMV instead of HMP Cuz street life could only end one way Your friend crying on the scene like why, why, why? [Chorus: x2] (Baby Blue) Knowin real fame That's what I used to dream about That everyone would know my name And they would scream it out Knowing my song words and sing along too And I would walk down the street and hear blue, blue, blue My video's rotating So I got these execs debating About whether I'm taking And these RnB guys is asking the same thing Calling up my phone, wondering whether I'm dating I turn my pa**ion to career how could I lose out? Quit my nine to five so I don't have to sell shoes now My CDs are moving That's the route that I'm choosing So I got to make it through, through, through Little Rachael used to look up to the sky too an*lyse the planets and wonder if I could shine too So now they ask how I'm doing I say Little Rachael's doing okay (Sway) (Okay) [Chorus: x2]
