Lyrics

Tim Cheks, born in '88, I'm an 80s baby

That's what makes me who I am, some say that makes me crazy

I try to be myself, and people hate me lately

They'll get nowhere in life 'cos they be lazy

'Cos those born in the 80s, that's the best generation

I ain't stealing pigs when i say I'm gettin' the bacon

If you keep talking shit, I'll smash the rest of ya face in

We rap from a and pen and a pad that we get from the basement

Back in my day there weren't different pronouns and shit

And all of the chicks just wanted to go down on dicks

In this day and age I know that won't sound legit

But you'll never hear a verse as profound as this

Back in my day, we had a dope hip hop game

And ya couldn't just get rich off some TikTok fame

I mean c'mon man, ya can't tell me this shit's not lame

They're broken on the outside, like a chipped-off frame


Do what ya want, do what's right in ya heart

You gotta fight through the dark, to brighten the spark

Stick with it, even though you feel ya'd like to depart

Here's a track all about me, as I'm climbin' the charts

Do what ya want, do what's right in ya heart

You gotta fight through the dark, to brighten the spark

Stick with it, even though you feel ya'd like to depart

Here's a track all about me, as I'm climbin' the charts


One day a track of mine will give me elevated fame

And Tim fuckin' Cheks will be a celebrated name

You claim that you're baller, but you've never made it rain

My bars put out more heat than seven naked flames

In my day there were no words ya thought ya will contain

When ya walked the steets at night; had to tuck ya silver chain

Nowadays the mumble rappers just kill the game

Our opinions from back in the day? They're still the same

We grew up with basic shows, like Paddington Bear

For recess we could only afford a lamington square

The flames up above one day'll light up Madison Square

No jet-setter, so me, gettin' to see, the Vatican's rare

But now people look at me with fascination

'Cos they know I cut deep like lacerations

They know I own my imagination

And I'mma be this way until my assassination


Do what ya want, do what's right in ya heart

You gotta fight through the dark, to brighten the spark

Stick with it, even though you feel ya'd like to depart

Here's a track all about me, as I'm climbin' the charts

Do what ya want, do what's right in ya heart

You gotta fight through the dark, to brighten the spark

Stick with it, even though you feel ya'd like to depart

Here's a track all about me, as I'm climbin' the charts


These days there's always people that I hate

They're evil and they're fake, deceitful and a snake

You plus me, that would equal a mistake

Don't need a part two; there's no sequels that are great

I never did drugs growin' up, didn't hear 'em say I'm cool

Just focussed on my future, tried to stay in school

Was straight-laced, they all knew Tim's no misfit

Had mates, who loved a good disco biscuit

Compared to them, I was so lame and stiff

Thought I was uncool, never gave cocaine a sniff

Just wasn't a try-hard; no codename for this

People will get irked by this track, thinking I'm makin' a diss

Fuckin' chillax, baby, I'm just takin' the piss

'Cos all these stories of my past, make me who I am

If you're not proud of your past, then maybe choose again

It's these, good memories, that'll take ya to the end


Do what ya want, do what's right in ya heart

You gotta fight through the dark, to brighten the spark

Stick with it, even though you feel ya'd like to depart

Here's a track all about me, as I'm climbin' the charts

Do what ya want, do what's right in ya heart

You gotta fight through the dark, to brighten the spark

Stick with it, even though you feel ya'd like to depart

Here's a track all about me, as I'm climbin' the charts
