[Hook]
Today is gonna be the day
That they're gonna throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realised what you gotta do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do about you now
Back beat, the word is on the street
That the fire in your heart is out
I'm sure you've heard it all before
But you never really had a doubt
I don't believe that anybody feels
The way I do about you now
[Verse 1]
And we came such a long way
Built a flame from a flicker
Stood back, claim young'uns left the framework in cinders
I get it but to me there's a difference between us doing it different and abusing tradition
As generations shift, rebuilt it and we thought
Gotta be about more than appealing to the core
Couple tall poppies broke gla** ceilings for us all
Mine was high profile some don't feel me anymore, well
I still love it, and you can find me at the gigs that they're brushing
Their words say they down for the scene, their act doesn't
The loudmouths always got by keeping stubborn
Can't tell me nothing
I look at ‘em like, where the f** did the pride go
The result of their rise, but, we did in spite of
Years trying to open ears and minds
Till young emcees gave up and left the scene behind, its like...

I don't believe that anybody feels
The way I do about you now
[Verse 2]
We came such a long way
Winding roads, bright lights in the lost days
Train trips, bong haze, right in the wrong lane
And there's so much I'd like to but don't know how, so I won't say, high octane
Beginning our tour
It's cool getting paid, but its always been about more
Been about dreams hope y'all living out yours
I reached mine by spitting out my inner thoughts
And I would never take back, or refute, or retract
Any statement or act, mate, told you the fact
I never turned my back or changed my tact
Chasing a fan base, you can go and hold me to that
Probably sound scorned when I talk about the scene
Only brought it up cause it was once important to me
But it ain't what it was, let it be what it be
And we'll keep moving on, where it ends we'll see, cause...
