MC Mantra - Loudmouth lyrics

[Verse 1] Ugh, alright My teachers always told me I'd never amount to nothing And they may have been right, that's why I jump on a mic Every night, because when I jump on a mic That's how I know that I'mma be alright (Well I'mma be alright) My entire life I only had one sk** Never had a crazy ambition to fulfil While all the other kids were busy ticking those boxes I was busy cracking jokes, hanging out by the lockers I was just another loudmouth Had a voice so loud, it couldn't be drowned out Teachers hated me from the minute they found out Like here we go, here's another f**ing cla** clown Another genius who thinks he's a comedian Even though his IQ's barely intermediate (true) Though I never did believe what they were feeding us So I made up my mind to make trouble [Hook] I am a loudmouth Like it or not, I am never gonna pipe down I've been the same since playing on playgrounds Which is why I'm never gonna put the mic down I am a loudmouth Like it or not, I am never gonna pipe down Making noise is all I've ever been good at, yo So I'mma do that, yeah so I'mma do that [Verse 2] Ugh, I was sitting in the back, scribbling my raps Trying to conceal what was hidden in my bag So the faculty would try to teach my family a thing or two Whenever the time came for parent teacher interviews He is constantly distracting all the other kids And Mr. Davison's pride is still recovering There's no use, there is nothing to be done with him He's gonna end up leeching all his money from the government Look at Thomas, he's got so much promise A bright future in politics, or even economics And Mary, she's already got a scholarship to college A photographic memory and encyclopaedic knowledge What did I care about acing a maths exam I wanted to go and get baked in Amsterdam Maybe travel the outback in a camper van Make some money off the books, cash in hand I really thought I knew it all Little did I know, I didn't know enough for anything at all All I knew is I was destined to become an MC When everybody in the cla**, started listening to me [Hook] [Bridge] Yes I know There's just one thing one thing one thing that I can do (So what?) So I gotta amplify my voice and speak to you And I don't know Where I will go or might end up throughout my life So all I know Is that I gotta keep on keep on speaking to my people [Verse 3] Alright, here we go again Yo, I always had the mouth, but never had the muscle And that mouth used to get me in a lot of trouble I've been outspoken as long as I've been housebroken Since I could walk, I've been running my mouth broseph I won't stop until my energy's spent I could talk underwater with a mouth fill of cement I could talk in a tornado, talk buried in snow But I ain't no informer, I can talk better than snow I talked my arse off until I gained a reputation Now I talk to the generation I was raised in And it may only last a few minutes But it sure is fun talking sh** for a living You know why [Hook]
