It's Over Lyrics

See the industry's asleep

It's coiled up in the sheets

With no idea of what's really going on in the streets

Musicians afraid and claiming they're being discreet

But I understand no shows at Christmas, you no go eat

I came to plant the seed that grows a tree of bittersweets

Awards are trash that's why some artistes just keep taking sweeps

Promoters tryna get rich and stay scheming

But as long as I'm breathing

I'm doing this for one reason

Our music ain't evolving

Our lyrics ain't involving

What we do is celebrate mediocre recordings

Miming and performing

Standing on stage doing the same things

And we ask why the fans aren't amazed?

It's pitiful how we compare our music to Nigerians

We can't even sell CDs in our on area

Money ain't my problem

I refuse to be broke

Like R2Bees Walahi

I swear I'll forever be dope

And the truth will be exposed

In all the words that I wrote

I know it cuts all of the guilty parties

Like knives to their throats

So listen, better know that GH has a hope

A black star, a black sun

And y'all already know

When the fat lady sings

Then they think that it is over

But this is the beginning

I was born to be a soldier

Hip Hop on my shoulder

Beyond the rhymes

We are the culture

And I say it ain't over till it's over

When the fat lady sings

Then they think that it is over

But this is the beginning

I was born to be a soldier

Hip Hop on my shoulder

Coming harder than boulders

I told ya

I say it ain't over till it's over

They say Hip Hop no get future

They say dog Hip Hop producers

They say do some Azonto make we take dance and drink some booze

Ah!

But they listen to Jay – Z, Drake, Wayne and Baby

They either tryna clown me or they're just getting crazy

Lyricism is the art of expression

Using the phonetic repetition that when you listen leaves you breathless

Yes! Yes!

I know I'm the best versed on the flow

As the rest stress over shows

I'm doing biz getting dough

Success breeds enemies

So every percent of me is focused on my hustle

And how to be a better C

Really though

I've never been ridiculed

Never felt miniscule

I'm just a giant taking leaps in life ahead of you

One, Two, Mic check

When I come through

I rep

Mixdown

Direct!

Wanna eye red

I swear

So better let go

Of the mind set

That Hip Hop will not grow

Cos when I grab a microphone I leave your mind blown

When the fat lady sings

Then they think that it is over

But this is the beginning

I was born to be a soldier

Hip Hop on my shoulder

Beyond the rhymes

We are the culture

And I say it ain't over till it's over

When the fat lady sings

Then they think that it is over

But this is the beginning

I was born to be a soldier

Hip Hop on my shoulder

Coming harder than boulders

I told ya

I say it ain't over till it's over

In the first third of my life, I've been to university twice

So when it comes to mind games

I'm rocking the veteran stripes

Not amazed by the fame and the distraction of lights

As they flash in the night

Cos I can achieve whatever I like

All I need is for you to agree and believe

That we can achieve more than the industry has degraded us to believe

It's not just hooks and the tempo

Banging instrumentals or the slogans that we repeat in the clubs that we get into

You see we're playing for keeps

It's not a rental or lease

The price is detrimental

At least nothing is free

Eventually we'll pay the price for mediocrity

And it will not be me

Living a life of a forgotten odyssey

So let these words sludge and merge on your mind

As the third verses unearth

And I'm speeding leaving all the dirt just behind

I'm always back on the right path

Like I just left

It's still the Red, Gold, Green

That's what I'm always gon rep

When the fat lady sings

Then they think that it is over

But this is the beginning

I was born to be a soldier

Hip Hop on my shoulder

Beyond the rhymes

We are the culture

And I say it ain't over till it's over

When the fat lady sings

Then they think that it is over

But this is the beginning

I was born to be a soldier

Hip Hop on my shoulder

Coming harder than boulders

I told ya

I say it ain't over till it's over
