Chris Chetland - Been This Way lyrics

[Intro] Every MC in this industry wants one thing To be the best in the top of their game You want it? Come and get me! [Hook] Do what you gotta do (come and get me !) I came from the struggle; I'm bringing my pain with me Nothing you can say will ever lead me astray Yo, I been this way since back in the day YUP Do what you gotta do (come and get me !) I came from the struggle; I'm bringing my pain with me Nothing you can say will ever lead me astray Yo, I been this way since back in the day (Yo Shan, lets take 'em) [Verse 1] You couldn't rock a joint with a mic and a pound of weed You couldn't get a point across with a pen and a key of P You couldn't get high as me with two tabs of LSD Cool as a cucumber with two sticks of celery Spit like watermelon pips from your juju lips Hands mo callus can see excel from the mics I read My rhyme patterns supreme mm the baddest Fresh - woo - my flows the fattest Yeah and I gotta do this for those that never had it But climbed the ladder only to watch all their dreams shatter They doubled my pain; I tripled my sk**s in hip-hop Quadrupled my strength, quintupled my props - yo I got it locked yo and I'm ready to drop yo And you can hit me with everything that you got yo But I will not fall or trip over obstacles Its logical I'm gonna run hip hop into the cortical [Hook] Do what you gotta do (come and get me !) I came from the struggle; I'm bringing my pain with me Nothing you can say will ever lead me astray Yo, I been this way since back in the day YUP Do what you gotta do (come and get me !) I came from the struggle; I'm bringing my pain with me Nothing you can say will ever lead me astray Yo, I been this way since back in the day [Verse 2] Verse two, I stepped up and I made moves I stayed true and like flows I paid dues And came through slicing biters like Blade II 'Cause they knew I came to take our fake crews And take you if that's what it comes down to Tryna break through and go triple platinum like Che Fu (True) Still I'm tighter than the Al-Qaeda with corn braids Lines heavy like if you wake the whole with Dawn Raid f** them and let them see I'm all yeah I went back to the true school like DJ Sir Vere So who the, who the f** said that Scribe wasn't deep Yo I'm deep like Mareko's voice tone when he speaks And I'm ill like Uneepa with sk**s to pay the bills this year And MCs is getting cut like One Tree Hill, for real I'm still the baddest MC to grab a pad and a pen Go tell ya friends Scribe is at it again. Yeah [Hook] Do what you gotta do (come and get me !) I came from the struggle; I'm bringing my pain with me Nothing you can say will ever lead me astray Yo, I been this way since back in the day YUP Do what you gotta do (come and get me !) I came from the struggle; I'm bringing my pain with me Nothing you can say will ever lead me astray Yo, I been this way since back in the day [Verse 3] I complete the beat like a snare I come crisp and clear I'm here to test MCs like it's their 5th form year We 'bout to find out who is and who isn't prepared About to make your arse disappear into thin air Ask DJ Shan; yo I've been up in here You'd better get it crystal clear your sk** just doesn't compare They're asking who's the best in the underground No question the best is on the f**ing mic right now! [Hook] Do what you gotta do (come and get me !) I came from the struggle; I'm bringing my pain with me Nothing you can say will ever lead me astray Yo, I been this way since back in the day YUP Do what you gotta do (come and get me !) I came from the struggle; I'm bringing my pain with me Nothing you can say will ever lead me astray Yo, I been this way since back in the day [Outro] Yeah now come and get me, I'm waiting I'll still be here ... when you're ready
