when I was doing my thing
I never guessed I would be
blessed with a chance to bring
never would've rehearsed this
how it started around 83 or 84,
growing up in London town
hanging out with the writers
always buying ninja weapons
throwing stars in our school lessons,
shivering reading comprehension,
the way they conjured flow
and then built up all the tension,
did I mention that I first rocked
three years later I was fixed, hit the bush in 89,
yo truck huh, we come so far,
we come so far, we come so far,
yo tell us about your star, we come
Yo, tell us about your star
Yo, tell us about your star
Truck, tell us about your star
Cause I still drop tracks
So I curb the curse in the verse I rap
I rock the alternative rap
With the bass slap and flip rap
With melodic lyrics and loops
and tricks slick melodic lyrics
and walked a new line still be our 38
I reminisce alien earth on the night shift
and sick sick kids with individual twists
the vibe explosive CDs and records
to promote the shows that
we did ciphers off the rack
freestart a hell and back
then we chat on the radio shows
before we pack for the festivals
with the ack -eye and the Apple Mac
We come so far, we come so far,
Yo, tell us about your star
We come so far, we come so far,
Yo, tell us about your star
We come so far, we come so far,
Yo, tell us about your star
We come so far, we come so far,
D, tell us about your star
cut some tracks that were shelved
who knew a thing or two about rap
that we sat and wrote some tracks
my first slice of wax hit the shops in 1990
time to finish all of yours
now it's time for me to pause
follow the star like a guide
it's a ride of your life from the start
i got memories of mixtapes
I'm sure dark nights white light
burn it right till I'm sick in the car.
I know good about 89 was the time
G Swift moved to my neighborhood
2013 still build my history with mr.
