TremOne - Ever Since lyrics

Back in the days when Kut Above paved the way Me and Raise used to lob to my brother name Jays, in Corio Bay This kid from the states set his garage up With mics, two belt drives and his DJ A-Mirage Out Large and What it Is were inspiration For this estranged up and comers hope to stake a claim And make a name, patiently I waited building sk**s Till the moment came that my name could fill the bill I k**ed that little show, my flow was tight and right on song And we rolled 25 strong on the train trip from Geelong From that day on, the slow progression began I picked up more mics than markers, pens and pressure pak cans Impressing rap fans locally, all city next mission Hooked up with DJ Frenzy on a quest for recognition Cementing my position on the mic was all I thought of Brought the house down this one night I'm sure heads caught the Aura of this author, astounding men and women both Chicks vickin my sh**, blokes scoping my flows as dope As they ever saw, metaphors and similies I stormed up on stage like the Anzacs in Gallipoli And gave em a little taste of big things to come See '91 was over, '92 had just begun And while my crew was running round intent on k**ing yards I was building raps with Strut when he was still Jard I planned a 6 track tape at this date with Johnny Idem My rhyming was f**ing tight it just took me yonks to write em And despite all the plans and plotting, and the fans I'd gotten Laced arrest my brain and the rest got forgotten (Cut Chorus) Now the next few years had slid by and still I ran through The spots rocking raps from ruby red to bamboo A new wave of crews played, on their crusades Though few stayed long enough to wait to see their dues paid I started building with the Forms in North Fitz And tore strips off mics on any set we saw fit In May '95 we got live in PBS as guests and With Prowlz, Dedlee and Menace and then on Raises essence Then it dawned, when P said "Whaddup You rocked every spot you got up and it time you dropped some product?" Formed Unkut then we pieced my first LP's release Without further ado to say the least We reached 4 tracks in and dropped a 12 Sheer Talent rocked and got picked off quick as it hopped on the shelf Amateurs was next in the succession plan And it dropped but not without the endless headaches at the pressing plant Never the less man, that sh** sold in boatloads With next to no promos, renowned for my slow flows Around this time I got my shine on some features And helped conceive a team of this rhyming scenes supremists LC!... Yeah the Lyrical Commission was born and brought the rawness Formed of this cities best and repped it's four corners With Murderous Metaphors, fought wars and packed tours Collabed with gods 'n' saw rats sort to black ball us Notorious, rap lords that smash and grabbed cordless Shures that put us on the map from out the black waters I gave my balls to this cause, warts and all sorts of dumb sh** 20 years plus still ain't done with (Cut Chorus)
