lyrics
It's the tory hating, story maker, aka the glory chaser
we never had the dough, like I'm the poorest baker
making paper independent no its nothing major
though in general I generate a buzz like a pager
need my name to ring a bell, like stringer bell
I aint a royal male, but I deliver well
hitting up so many bars, it's damaging my liver cells
can't afford the fizz cos my business is pretty frail
still you show me interest
more than my Natwest, I'm happy that I invest
time with you, and its valuable like rolex
even though you keep on asking if I will be pro yet,
tell my mum don't fret i'm in the media
she says it don't count its only wikipedia
I'm the same as always just a little greedier
and my girlfriends got a little needier
(chorus)
Eleven, i'm super natural whenever
truly actually a rebel, do the math and see me revel
Aint no stranger thing then all rap shit
And how I appeared on the scene like magic
I tell it like most of you never have heard
scheming with dreaming that's never deferred
the voice of a boy that was never preferred
with devilish wit and some heavenly words
I put em together like blessing and church
when I was young I was definitely hurt
now that i'm older I reckon i'm cursed
every girl I was wrecking it first
hitting bars, that were as infinite as Chips are
saying I was lead role, made them all a bit part
Graduated as animated as Pixar
I was going deep back when Nemo couldn't swim far
I rip the microphone apart like it's offended me
my tendency for doing so,- is due to my dependency
on rap beats, and that means, this is my identity
killer of the melody, really I am the remedy,
to any rapper telling me, how ill that they are
skilled with the bar, like a lawyer or mixologist
toying with your colleges, the knowledge is wild
like imagination running through the brain of a child
I'm Picasso with the sketchbook,
or call me future cos i'm next up
hear me once and get your neck stuck
in permanent state of nodding, affirmative that i'm rocking
the verses and i'll be jotting, till nurses are calling doctors
and doctors are calling time,
I give you magic but the muggles call it rhyme
I give you graphic like i'm working in design
and if your listening on apple I know its tempting to bite
they say your friends might be snakes
and if mine are adders, they'll be plus an L
and i'll be using em for ladders,
the rap game is jewellery and status
constant competition of whose musically the baddest,
baddest meaning the best
rappers needing a rest
and i'm referring to breaks, I aint referring to jakes
better cop this terra firma to space,
(chorus)
Eleven, i'm super natural whenever
truly actually a rebel, do the math and see me revel
Aint no stranger thing then all rap shit
And how I appeared on the scene like magic
it's the glory hating, story maker, aka the poor debater
call me Mr White I am a pure creator
find me in the kitchen with a torn up apron
cooking up this album for a calling nation
and yeah it would be nice if I was getting paid
imagine all the champagne we'd be getting sprayed
rappers get exploited for their airtime
either way their way getting played
