[Hook:Proverb & Tebogo Moloto]
Welcome to the writers club for all the writers with
The Midas touch (Writers just like us)
Emcees don't cypher as much
That's why we need a readers and writers club (So sign up) X2
[Verse 1: ProVerb]
I write what I like and I like what I write
I like to be write but I don't really write to be liked (There's a difference)
I get hyped when I write, like journalists
But I'm no journalist (nope) - So I don't write for the hype
And not to say that hype is not right, but writing won't get you hyped
And having the hype doesn't mean you can write (no)
And hype is the right cover up so that whatever you write just might-
Get you on the cover HYPE
You can count from left to right
How many writers are left and you be left thinkin' its not right ?
Just, how many writers have been left stranded?
Its quite a mess, like trynna write - left handed
But even tho there's not much left that feels right
Look, I'm still here- I have not left I still right
I'm the author, with so many books left to write
Slash performer, still getting booked left and right (sign up!)
[Hook: Proverb & Tebogo Moloto]
[Verse 2: ProVerb]
I write what I feel and I feel what I write
To get that right feeling I put a feeling in what I write
Then the feeling is what I write, then the feeling is what I like
I call it 'light-reading' , because ,reading, it is the light
(You feeling me, right?)
See by speakin' it through the mic and by reading it through the night
I'm leading you to the night
(You reading this, right?)
You got the right to read - I'm reading your rights
So what I write you read and I'd like to see you see the light
And I see that you seem to like-
Seeing an emcee who writes
Now there's a danger - in being seen a real emcee
Because, real emcees are an endangered species-
Now that's the life I'm trynna lead
I'm trynna lead writers back to life cause we a dying breed
I'm trynna bread - writers who write the lead
And bring life to the writings that you're dying to read (so sign up!)
[Hook: Proverb & Tebogo Moloto]
[Verse 3: ProVerb]
Give me something to write, so I can write something you like
I know you like someone that writes
My type of writers -Are the type to recite at cyphers
But like cyphers, they're phased out like type-writers
We gotta fight fire with fire and re-ignite the fire inside us
We need writers and fire-lighters
I'm the type of fighter who's trynna inspire writers-
Too see the light and put out fire like fire-fighters
I wanna burn the fortune five list
Cause unfortunately fortune drives us to write four tunes and five hits (Tell 'em!)
Then radio will force you to like it
And cause you to buy it
I want you to read my thoughts like you psychic
I'm rather biased and by far my heart's desires-
Are burning hot enough to start some forest fires
I'm more defiant, and a little mortified
And there's only four to five writers
No more to find..
