Tamacki - Speak lyrics

[Verse 1: Perry] Ay! From a country where hip hop don't got the recognition It's supposed to be survival of the fittest Naah! More like f** hip hop Cos mum don't like it and dad detest it Pa** your test you wanna do music And you couldn't say sh** It's Africa so what you gon do Go contuary they gon whoop your a** Take your chance From nine to five It's just work the math And no time for bed and no time for pads and no time for pads I cut school to mic record And in my report, an A student Don't like school, gotta stay stupid To stay grinding, that is bliss And the blisters in my palm show How hard I work just so you know So f** you if you hate me On second thought, I don't give a f** So Imma take that back and save it for your b**h Damn it Tamacki, my dad taught me better I'm not supposed to curse [Verse 2: Perry] Ay! Living life, living life, I'm soo fine Rap tight, rap tight, I do fine For a homie to give a listen With no intention of a promotion Cos they've got favourites in another land Like J. Cole or K. Dot Cos they're hot and I'm not Imma ask you this, Real quick Do you ride for me homie? Like forget them and follow me? Just cos they're big and got plenty of fans I probably got none Well one and that's me And a homie got the guts to tell me I've gotta put my sh** on a afrobeat Did once, don't feel right I'm past that, Imma stick with this Even if it don't sell, I'm henchman till I die f** with hip hop till I die It's the genre that I like Mum I'm sorry that I lied Gotta stay hungry so you could tell me I can rap or criticize me And don't buy my sh** Go download it, It's free online Y'all k**ing me, Y'all k**ing me No doubt about it, Yo T-mack Uh Perry man I see you got this sh** man You're always keeping it hundred Lemme take it from here [Verse 3: Tamacki] Yeah! Perry told me that he wanted this So I had to get that bus straight so we make the hit Growing up I never thought that I'm gon be the sh** I guess God always had a way to make me fit Stay focused, but now they tryna f** us And now they tryna fame us Cos we be getting famous It's like that n***a Amos Who's always tryna aim us Always put the blame on us Truth is they never loved us Like Jack and Jill, I'm going up the hill to get my game I've got a girl and I swear she's the only one I lay I'm tryna bolt these n***as while I'm standing in my lane I'm tryna be a hero who's got no Lois Lane Shout out to my n***a Tory I pray you get more glory Cos life is such a journey Hope you live long to tell the story And same goes to my homies And those who be supporting I just pray when I'm gone I'd be worth your memory [Hook: Tamacki] I pray, I pray Swear to God I pray, I pray Get on my knees I do this everyday I pray, I pray I pray, I pray Yeah I pray, I pray Swear to God I pray, I pray Get on my knees I do this everyday I pray I make it everyday
