about
Play this in the rain. It helps.
lyrics
For a rainy day
Saved for a rainy day
(repeat)
Everything I show you, high definition,
This is audio visual shit by definition,
I try to keep it simple, so you keep up to the chorus
Without needing a thesaurus, when you hear my single,
Who am I kidding, I've always been complex,
Keep you fly rappers on the ground, like the bomb threats
On jets, I get the type of women that bond gets,
And put the pro, in every project…
Hope you like the boasts, its what we do best,
Saying we're too fresh, like fruit juice thats newly pressed
I'm truly blessed, but using rap to pay my student debt,
How stupid could stupid get? I'm dead broke,
Nodding to the beats till my necks broke,
Give you food for thought, till you next choke
I aint extraordinary, I just write better than the next bloke,
And I dress next to ordinary,
(Chorus)
For the rainy days, I saved you a diamond,
The sun won't shine, still we hit the rhyming,
So every cloud has a silver lining
Singing in the rain, no matter how grey the sky went

Most of us are ADHD kids,
TV kids, the death of CD kids
We turned the tables till we're MP3 kids,
I really don't envy these kids,
That's why I'm here to uplift like rising elevators,
Surprising educator, get it now or get it later,
You will respect me Vader,
Leave you breathing on a respirator,
If you don't accept that I will test the greatest
Pass your test, surpass your estimators,
Press your playlist, and make this song
The next you favourite,
Here we go again, with the arrogance,
Wanna be a millionaire, get Chris Tarrant then
Raps a kingdom for us angry men,
Some can handle jail, but can't handle pens,
And you're still getting sued if you sample friends
So we're up against the odds, like rookies in the gambling dens,
I lack the sense, to get even, i'm always getting mad,
I don't write to buy a better pad, or get what I never had,
Money aint an issue, rappers make enough,
That they would use it as a tissue, while claiming their sick,
I pick your brain like a burial in Ancient Egypt,
So be careful if you say you're the shit, and your name isn't shit
I shoot a verse or two and aim from the hip,
In the land of the rain, where the fame is evading our grip
For the rainy days, I saved you a diamond,
The sun won't shine, still we hit the rhyming,
So every cloud has a silver lining
Singing in the rain, no matter how grey the sky went
x2
