Hey man, I got a plan for our pain
Fill my pocket, I need a dollar to make a change
engrave our message on a silk screen frame
or keep a brick, with two yellow zig zag lines
why? coz stopping your hustle just is a crime.
Who am i? I’m the lioncity boy Hi, homegrown
Original, I keep simple,
Wash your eyes coz I offer more than a catalogue
And of course the reason you withdraw
Hater, I know a cat who just brag about nothing
just a scratch of the surface, they not worth it
so becareful you’re prasing, amen,
let’s clear the some over city, it was hazing
hate deejays who play my track and just fade in,
that’s just lazy, let’s make a change in this scene
reach for the skies now if you feel me
Hey man, I got a plan for our pain
Fill my pocket, I need a dollar to make a change
Change how did they look at us
Change all this talk that no one ever good enough.
make em care
Change all this haters
Change all these stares
You can’t take it?
Well you can kiss my..
Hold up up the volume you recording?
Let’s talk about me, they said that I’m important,
The flow so foreign,
improve the boring punch lines you so borrowed
like I didn’t know
that’s right the change of this game is upon you
the leader of the old and team, kuan yew
I put the mmph in your seat for you piku
Wave your hands high in the crowd so I can see you
The rule of thumb is to grind, that’s the gospel
Just pay your dues, stop suckin on the bottle
No free pass, Magazine said that I will revive
this beauty And all without pressin a single cd?
Impressin what you got when still have the time?
no rewind, mr mcfly call him marrty
follow me I’ll it start it off Atari,
hurry I see the finish line, plan the party
Hey man, I got a plan for our pain
Fill my pocket, I need a dollar to make a change
Change how did they look at us
Change all this talk that no one is ever good enough.
make em care
Change all this haters
Change all these stares
You can’t take it?
Well you can kiss my..

It’s hard trying not to blink coz I never wanna miss
a single minute of it,
Because it seems to illustrate like waccom pens
And the colours
senorita Kim mentioned I was way different from her others
is it coz I look so common
oh the blogs say you can’t even stop him
do know fi, syaheed and Ko,
if I’ve never said it let me tell you now that I owe you all
cue the lights and applause
peep my sauce
I’m so tony let me show you who the boss
Dre knew he could tag along if he it gave
Him numbers from a girl he could move up on.
How we’ve grown but yet standing up we all still the same
Same though we different like the slogans
Let’s Take a weekend just to Dance to the night
Clink the glass and laugh at the good times,
Chorus:
Oh oh Oh
(Coz I feel it right)
Dreamin is living
Oh oh Hey
(where come? where we been? Where we about to go)
OH oh oh now
Dreaming is living
But I know it's where I've come from that matters
Now we all rocked the catchy undercover names, deco
Who I knew way back before we hit the teens
Tagging with these aerosols
by the bus stop Yes that was us boys thinking we were cool
Fast forward I’m sixx and food & liquor fueled
I see it like maria, where I’m window seated
Sister you can wait for it to happen I’m seeker
Rewind to the White and blue the colours of my secondary school
at Times it was my worst decision making
getting caught for ridiculous adolescent crimes
taking many things I never even wanted
though I had plenty money in my wallet
Kev you stupid What you thinking?
So I said prayer n started chasing dreams
we made it through the phases like my fat boy jeans
now I’m clean on the scene with these uniqlo’s, let’s go
Chorus:
Oh oh Oh
(Coz I feel it right)
Dreamin is living
Oh oh Hey
(where come? where we been? Where we about to go)
OH oh oh now
Dreaming is living
But I know it's where I've come from that matters
Yea I grew up listenin to kristang, tantu
Hello, let me introduce I’m half Grago
What I got though is memories
filled with anomalies from
these verses that I polished clean
but please don’t bother me
just follow me like a law or a policy,
we heading a rise against them and those
haters who constantly refute
but I still pardon radio from acknowledging my artistry
so I thank god I got friends like Julio and T
keep me on the ground like the air techs
hile the fires on the grill,
I’m not burning you I’m raising up the stakes,
Watch my team we a one band cindy kate
We will run this betcha
Since young I was Chasing it down like a block catcher
Bro I let My kidhood song getcha,

Take you back to school man it’s a service...
Focus coz i guide you like a tourist
I’m running tracks like usain,
Drop the pseudo change but it’s still the same game
Yes man I maintain
From the pavement lighting up up your atmosphere
Throw your Hands up if Lion City's here
Homes to the bikers like the Crank Arm Steady
Scope / Sketch graffiti art somerset skate park
I just Trying to get the cheese like the rest ya,
razor sharp like chico
Put your money on me like marina new casino
shino be through your camp azreal as the XS
and i plan to do bigger than my days in the BvF
flow Beat your face in like elin did to tiger
Rookies’ll learn my whole verse and use it in a cipher.
Sixx sign (HEY!) it’s a takeover
I'm a Rockstar, a Rock-Rock Star
Sittin with the models in the V-I-P
at the bar
(yea)I'm a Rockstar, a Rock-Rock Star
when you hear my song on the radio
it's gonna make you go
(oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
(yea)I'm a Rockstar, a Rock-Rock Star
This my time too I can’t stop now,
Nah nah no. remember me
Obsessed with the radio, being on it can you hear me?
My theory is persistence
overcomes anything that resists or makes me think twice,
The science of achieving my dream, is sacrifice
I know it too well
From grange, targets we set to aim, admist some
Who came, found their luggage spin around the belt
Now the left. Coz the waits too long
so I twist up my finger. R. a radikal at large
Fresh on the bars like a flair, I got
Verses tear you up like a bear do, prepare..Stretch
mentalist manipulate your mind from my lair.
Sommelier, I spit the hate back in bucket
Like a wine taster do … realise lives is my affiliated crew.
You don’t Have to really tell me.. I won’t move sir.
Educate minds lead by signature sign
Trying to be a rockstar in sixty five. Rule it
So when I’m gone you will remember my music.
I'm a Rockstar, a Rock-Rock Star
Sittin with the models in the V-I-P
at the bar
(yea)I'm a Rockstar, a Rock-Rock Star
when you hear my song on the radio
it's gonna make you go
(oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)

Chorus:
I put my cape on
Jump into the sky
And fly so high…
Dive back down burning
Move so fast
I go right past your eye
Dodgin’ them bullets
They come at me with their teeth cerated
But they don’t hurt me Superhero, and I’m ANIMATED
He wanted just to be heard All through the stereo
Perched with a bird eye view of his area
fought defeat with his every toe in his boot
Then teach the code like he was a ninja, secrets for the future
I am an avenger. Like I am legend actor, fought the
Intruders of his world hunt and stop the leader
They preyed on him, knelt by a wooden pew,
the parents prayed for him
a cartoon running/ on the street in the real world
front row Ani kuan, you just got stand up and feel the sun
transform or mask himself he’s just a walkman
with love of his music with no doubt.. like the rock band.
Scribbles and takes the bus back back home home from his
8 to 5 five job, bobbed his head and he tapped his feet
To a song, he keeps on.
Chorus
I put my cape on
Jump into the sky
And fly so high…
Dive back down burning
Move so fast
I go right past your eye
Dodgin’ them bullets
They come at me with their teeth cerated
But they don’t hurt me Superhero, and I’m ANIMATED
like a hero, he had visions of the end
speed in his writing like the world depended on it
solved from a pen, raised it a little higher
symbol for the people,
food for soul
he only wants gold,
Not the metal but the metaphor for first coz he’s fresh
In a box and cool on your set
With a t-shirt that said I am booms on his back
there were days that he felt like,
he slept in a dark place near the sewer pipe.
Coz he buried emcees and sorts,
And Chalked on it board,
Everyday hustle, on the grind like a board.
Fighting with a double d sword
As he Scribbles and takes the bus back back home home from his
8 to 5 five job, bobbed his head and he tapped his feet
To a song, he keeps on.
Chorus
I put my cape on
Jump into the sky
And fly so high…
Dive back down burning
Move so fast
I go right past your eye
Dodgin’ them bullets
They come at me with their teeth cerated
But they don’t hurt me Superhero, and I’m ANIMATED

When we bring the fire everything’ll thaw
Question your existence little food for thought
For you and you and all
Play the chorus, keep you bouncing like the players
Do to balls, now kao tao lower bro we will make you fall
Feel the chilli sauce, seeking for direction
Our mission when we pushing I envision further than abroad
God knows I could use some help, Good Samaritan
but I know, I’m not the only friggin fool imagining
Hold on, it could be a little testing
At times i’m jumping higher just reach the pavement
We building from the basement before the westin
but maybe it could be Me that’s save this,
oh wait now.. I mean starts this
Do we really have these rockstars amongst us?
What you need to support some instructions?
Check it. I’m a set new traditions like a custom
Chorus:
When I see the reasons/ to keep on believing
and I brave the seasons and keep on achieving
and I keep on movin’ on
you know I keep on movin’ on
You’re a Winner.
we should always look up to the sky
tell it to the mountains, keep our hands high
close your eyes if you ever, needed better
than you have like you the need a new angle, now do the math
plastered your heart and soul
into something a little foreign and it’s still feels cold
what’s that? I should better Get a job?
On the rig, risk my life just coz the papers large?
what they know about us?
I want No excuses to reach the milestones that I wanna polish
Say my name like a Hollywood starlet
Coz all I wish for is to get in in international
Tour the world with kanye we headline festivals
this is for the hardworking who keeping up the fight
all evening, the peeps that we go why we do even?
Chorus:
When I see the reasons/ to keep on believing
and I brave the seasons and keep on achieving
and I keep on movin’ on
you know I keep on movin’ on
You’re a Winner.
So how we find wealth from this?
Now define wealth as it first, what’s your limit, and the price from their purse?
Quit the bull before the worst happens
It’s a hard time everyday on the clock,
To my surprise, the suspense is intriguing,
Coz I chose to Live life for my own better reasons,
Believing that it’ll pay off times a thousand
I found the formulae to the outcome
Chorus:
When I see the reasons/ to keep on believing
and I brave the seasons and keep on achieving
and I keep on movin’ on
you know I keep on movin’ on
You’re a Winner.
<repeat>

Overdo
Chorus:
And I don’t really care what people say
Forget about it we’ll live just for today
And I don’t wanna have it any other way
(Overdo but I’m not so Over you)
Don’t you see just what you do to me
What can I do now just to make you see
(Me and you? Are we through? Overdo but I’m not so over you)
Damn whatcha doin to me
Damn whatcha doin to me
whatcha doin to me
whatcha doin to me
Damn whatcha doin to me
Damn whatcha doin to me
whatcha doin to me
Damn whatcha doin to me
She so clueless, a little cher and dione
Oh if this a movie, who do I play now travis?
Can’t kick the habit with dreams to be a stewardess
outta her coz she just so through with this biz
pictures from her camera phone, they paint the gist
top of profile it lists everthing down about her last
location . overdo, but I’m not so over you…
Her Playlist a little deep feeling emo,
Be Drunk dialling though I got a little ego, not easy
Typin messages, rated past our PGs, we silk stockin can you feel me?
Hell yeah everybody dissed it?
Can you blame me like I spilt the petroleum
Here he go again she’s sick with all this talk about
How we’ll be on the number one podium
Chorus
Why we always need to know how the story ends?
Much baggage but let’s skip who needs delorean
Let’s begin our own tale , hell
Fables, james jean on the cover illustrate us well
just a fox not the Michael but she megan
So honest, tell you if the shit’s nonsense
Quick comments but ah I still playin out what’s going on in her damn conscience
At dinner on her like I’m detective
Looking for signs, chin up so classroom attentive
But nooo she don’t want Princeton,
Complicated she don’t trust musicians
not over but
That’s a pity girl I could write you a real good poem
We’d show em so jill living our lives together like
It’s golden
Chorus
