[Intro] [Verse 1] Struck by the luck of draw Born poor, hardcore on a government floor In a place stone cold, daily looking for love Age one, no funs, no cakes, no toys But his mama said "Son, be whatever you want Hover like a dove coming that be flying up above Put your heart in the mix, believe you can achieve Use speed, preach, reach, tell haters don't breathe" So he set off quick, like the shorties in the script Deep nights, no sleep, you could see him peep still Some days it was hard, others days it was better But it didn't really matter, he was out for his cheddar Martin Luther said it best, shorty had himself a dream Got the baddest team together, crushed the head of the adder Now he rolls like a boss from gutter to kings cross Told his bruv', "No gloss, do it raw and uncut" Told you shorty is the man, now he rocks with a plan Seven strong no doubt, and they rock like a clan Can you do it? Yes you can! Be brave, take a stand Raise your hand, claim the land, it's yours you understand [Verse 2] The world is a funny place, everybody in a race For the papes, for the name, trying to get their head sane For all my people in the struggle trying hard to be the chief Trying to get Nan a crib and move to hills See I've seen it all switch, like a light with a flick No hitch, no glitch, from pauper to a king From the gutter to a leader, seen it all like Stevie Wonder So we set it off proper, be the alpha no omega Hip hopping from the corner and we rock it till it's over Breathing fire like a dragon now they give us the acclaim Remember when they all said, now we rock it everyday Now they read the epistle of the Kings in the castle Wounds, scars, thorns, bristle, still we do for it the hustle Hip hop is the tool, and life be the j**el Truth the rule, keep it cool, and no we don't snooze So you keep it moving on son, don't you ever stop Spreading love to the peeps, wisdom peeks with the sk** If you really got a will then God will make a way So we hustle and we pray, then we do it all again Pilgrim flowing on the mic, Versatyl what you say Coming straight from the A and we headed your way Best believe we the illest, and peeps we don't fake Got a message from Jehovah and it went this way He said please tell the people who be marching to the gates to just... [Verse 3] They say the emptiest barrel makes the loudest of noises But we sort of poises, never spreading poison Running to the goal, shooting barrels for the soul Beyond jokes or the dough, 'cause we move it stone cold Right in front of their eyes, it metamorphosized A blessing in disguise, as the time rolled by From a fiend to the cream, from a dream , all a wish Then they made it all happen like a fable unseen See they switched cos they reached for the top of the tree As they climbed with the limbs that were still being dissed Their mindset changed and their thoughts rearranged an*lyzed all the game and away with the lame So I guess its safe to say that the underdog gave A blow to the brain and the giant lay slain Run along with the game, the rhythm unchained Like a mental plane for those with the brain
