snakes & ladders (part two)
Singer:wiley
i just threw a four and i took a ladder to four-two
then i threw a seven and i went along to five-six
snakes there now i'm avoiding a crisis
one step away from a ladder that was righteous
then i rolled a five that took me up to seventy
when i reach the top a generation remembers me
had me a couple of generous genuine fans in the game that like me cause i resemble me
no i'll be lying to you if i said i'd never be late
now i'm sitting at eight-eight
that's the end of a great date
my flow's way above the pay grade
then i'm back in to blaze grade
threw a five to nine-four
a six to hundred's what i live my life for
i hit the ice like a maple leaf
i can't spit if i don't rate the beat
don't push cause you're gonna make me hate the beat
my cousin's got iphones on silver cheap
now i'm gonna raise the street
never had a brain for trees
cause a blizzard anywhere i take my feet
but let me take it to a place where i changed my p
the place where i grate my cheese
and if you can't hustle you won't last there
i seen people crumble in a half year
i like when i see the youth doing good things
cause i want 'em to know what doing good brings
i been there myself and i am gonna help you
you don't want what the hood brings
looks good but please don't play with it
got me looking for the cold
cause i be on a natural high
i swear winter can hear me calling
still had a good heart even when i weren't balling
life's like a game of snakes and ladders
everybody rushing around but i'm loving the sound of it
i got the drive that will drive all around the world
come alive anywhere on the earth
always searching for the perfect vocal
to be precise we're using pro tools
can't say you got it if you haven't
i like to be diverse and keep a good balance
they know i work hard for it
i'm gonna be the next star of it
i'm a free spirit and my living can prove it
i'm always chilling or cruising
it's a new day now but i ain't holding back
spit bars like i'm on an old school roll deep track
went top 5 with a sound that i will pursue
but i gotta let them know i'm not only that
i once was a prince but know i am a king
i play it all down but now i'm gonna blink
cause i may as well embrace the bloodclart ting
it's a new day so we are gonna do new things
the revolution's over so we're gonna do two things
no matter what you and who thinks
we'll roll up to the pub where you and who drinks
i spit sick bars but i can do a song
i play it all down but you know i was the one
so now i may as well embrace the vibe i was on
it's a new day nobody ain't telling me shit
don't mess about so i take down enemies quick
can't leave grime cause i love that
i told myself i don't really give a eff what my enemies think
got skill it's not a myth
i took one five yeah i took the piss
if i take shots yeah i ain't gonna miss
so i may as well embrace the fact that i'm this
and we're living out that dream
don't just sent me a couple of beats
i want tracks that take a man higher
i want tracks that take a man forward
you're bound to hear me when i'm flying by
i don't need to front cause i show it
when i'm being myself they cannot hear me
when i'm being myself they cannot hear me
but when i tame it down then they can hear me
but when i tame it down then they can hear me
i got gassed up by this riddim sent from deeco
life of wiley finally saw me roll through heathrow
i can't believe how much of the history that he knows
just do this thing for the people
when i find a 5 i'm not scared to buss it
some fans still want all the music from the year 2000
that was then when we found 'em
that's askin' a lot when i'm fair on the pitch passing a lot
i got quite sick of opinions
rise above now i'm laughing a lot
overseas and i'm in luck with the buds
zone out to the crazy stuff
all if the ifs and the buts and the maybe stuff
wanna do what nobody does
take a risk cause nobody does
i ain't playing it safe any more
i ain't playing that make or break any more
cause when i'm being myself they cannot hear me
when i'm being myself they cannot hear me
but when i tame it down then they can hear me
but when i tame it down then they can hear me
that perfect blend of love and hate could take you flying
but you will get left behind if you're not trying
i told my dons i've had enough and i'm not lying
some mcs try to paint a picture but i ain't buying
