The Calling
Lyrics
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yo, how you feel is how I felt
Hungry to achieve 'cause winners gain wealth
People telling you to contain yourself
I didn't listen to them, (no) I listen to me (trust)
'Cause to get to the top you can take yourself (ay)
Some of the us start the journey off for you
But the rest of it, you gotta take yourself
Let your ideas hit you, brace yourself
This is grime, we ain't like everyone else
We built this scene without anyone's help
Radio blocked us but we rate ourselves
Look how many stations we made ourselves
Got our own decks and we got our own DJs
Now everyday we can play ourselves
Highjack airwaves and made ourself
Now there's way more than reloads in this world
Trust me, if you wanna be a guy like me
First off, gotta have drive like me
1 A.M. Burned a thousand CDs
One at a time, you ain't have school nights like me
On top of that, didn't know who liked me
'Cause back then we never had likes my G
Went from Bluetooth and tunes to a friend's to
Dms where I gotta translate Chinese cuz
This one's for all my people, any profession, wake up this is your callin'
This one's for those that need it, no more sleeping late, let's get it this mornin'
Stop putting off hard work, get it over and done with, trust me, why are you stallin'?
Take yourself off silent, that's opportunity callin'
This one goes out to those I like
Do not miss the chance, do not miss the signs
I teach these lot, read between the lines
Forget new year, now is your time
You're different so they're gonna watch you more
That's cool, show them your energy draw
Out of 10 make sure all 10 of them sure
Show you're them you already, what you telling them for?
There's gonna people that say you shouldn't
Blaze your own trail and I bet next year
You would've done things when you thought you couldn't
That's how you become an unstoppable guy or woman
When I'm on grime I sound fire 'cause
From young this was my burnin' desire
Different parts of the world sound and admire
You know that it's hot when the flame is blue
And I'm gassed because Lewisham is my supplier
Everyone that I listened to was a liar
But I got tools, big money, multiplier
Never retire, I'm more of a tryer
And I'm sick and tired of hearin'
All these songs talkin' 'bout what you got on your debit
There's so many people they never credit
2020 is your time to go get it
We rely on the creatives
Just look at what a new generation generated
I didn't wanna get a job, I ask questions
And gain knowledge on a ting I created
This one's for all my people, any profession, wake up this is your callin'
This one's for those that need it, no more sleeping late, let's get it this mornin'
Stop putting off hard work, get it over and done with, trust me, why are you stallin'?
Take yourself off silent, that's opportunity calling
This one goes out to those I like
Do not miss the chance do not miss the signs
I teach these lot, read between the lines
Forget new year, now is your time
This one's for all my people, any profession, wake up this is your callin'
This one's for those that need it, no more sleeping late, let's get it this mornin'
Stop putting off hard work, get it over and done with, trust me, why are you stallin'?
Take yourself off silent, that's opportunity calling
This one's for all my people, any profession, wake up this is your callin'
This one's for those that need it, no more sleeping late, let's get it this mornin'
Stop putting off hard work, get it over and done with, trust me, why are you stallin'?
Take yourself off silent, that's opportunity calling
