Bacchanalia String Quartet - Still Standing lyrics

[Hook: Pressure & Suffa] It's been so long, we're glad we came Before we gathered fame or had a name Our story hasn't changed with accolades We're still standing and we'll be back again It's been so long, we're glad we came Before we gathered fame or had a name Our story hasn't changed with accolades We're still standing and we'll be back again [Verse 1: Pressure] Standing in line, fifteen, couldn't wait Couldn't fathom any talent in rhyme Had to get mine, granted in mind Was my rapping that I thought would never happen in time Odds stacked to reject us, attacking the hecklers Reckless with rap till they had to respect us Laid tracks, never asked for jack for my efforts Cause everything we do comes back to affect us And as long as I got lungs I'mma say this Long as we get love, we got some that will hate us We'll never change, it's done for the faithless And I don't care for favourites on somebody's playlist Ain't enough paper for the names I gotta mention Without 'em, no way I would've made it a profession I wouldn't trade it for a day of my obsession We're staying dedicated to perfection [Hook: Pressure & Suffa] It's been so long, we're glad we came Before we gathered fame or had a name Our story hasn't changed with accolades We're still standing and we'll be back again It's been so long, we're glad we came Before we gathered fame or had a name Our story hasn't changed with accolades We're still standing and we'll be back again [Verse 2: Suffa] "I'm still standing" f** it, one of us had to Though I'm not standing still like a statue Man, I can tighten loops like a la**o You see my blood runs blue like a cut up a tattoo It's ironic, some say it's even confusing That I'm still standing cause I'm keeping it moving And I'm still champion, we keep on improving And I'm Main Source man, I'm breaking and moving atoms What we spit is absurd Since a kid, I've always loved the rhythm of words The beauty of language and spewing the anguish All over the canvas like the riff was a curb Now if you live by the word, you die by the pen The critics can criticise but we're the creme de la creme Me and P-Dela we blend, what they're calling the standard Still standing while they're screaming, "When will it end?" [Hook: Pressure & Suffa] It's been so long, we're glad we came Before we gathered fame or had a name Our story hasn't changed with accolades We're still standing and we'll be back again It's been so long, we're glad we came Before we gathered fame or had a name Our story hasn't changed with accolades We're still standing and we'll be back again [Break] The whole crowd's like... How long you been here? "I've been here for years" How long you been here? "I've been here for years" How long you been here? "I've been here for years" How long you been here? "I've been here for years" [Verse 3: Pressure & Suffa] We still sharp, still craft Hip Hop that they played in the park Still jamming, still paving the path Still making our mark, still ain't for the faint of the heart Still standing, still state of the art We still sharp, still craft Hip Hop that they played in the park Still jamming, still paving the path Still making our mark, still ain't for the faint of the heart Still standing, still state of the art
