I put my soul in my belly every day
Before I rap I clear my thoughts of unnecessary clichés
See I'm takin' this to back in the day
When we was 6-years old and gettin' pushed out the way
A boy becomes a man
And on the way he learns his trade
I got this mic in my hand
And by the way I'm gettin' paid
But I'm givin' it to charity (so what do you say, man?)
Yeah I'm an MC, Yeah I work in Oxfam
Yeah I ain't your average man I got plans
Spreading awareness through this hip-hop,
And shit got so confusing
When I rapped for a contract
So I isolate myself and make hits that
Buzz with the intellectual power of Freedom
Love's on my mind and I'm just trynna break even
The world's so cold and all the people is freezing
You are the weakest link
But I love you anyway baby
That's my motto, on the mic I go crazy
'cos everyday a new paedophile makes me
Release this stress, where my forehead sweats
I can feel the weight of this world on my shoulders

CHORUS X2

(Thinkin bout my life)
I take many perspectives
(Thinkin bout my life)
And I can't be so objective
The world's mine as I see it and I live it
I can't be nobody but me on this planet

I got two million stories to tell
My poetology is hip-hop and biology
It's Wu-Tang mixed with sociology
My knowledge of the world (it) guarantees me an MC
But you been sleepin' on me for too long
Ignoring my sound like a car alarm
You twisted my arm, and now I'm
Going it alone (oh man)
I ain't about to stop myself learning
I seen too many old friends who since stopped evolving
Too many people who got shallow and involved in
Fashion or trendy-friends and cool circles
Spend half their lives jumping meaningless hurdles
I ain't about that life-livin pretense
I'm all about being in between your picket fence
'cos if you try and put creative people in a box
We start free-running til there's holes in our socks
This city is mine and I ain't sharing my stocks
My value is high 'cos I'm sharp like Mr. Spock
Staying cool while the right-wingers fly by my block
Stay cool! Fundamentalists get bothered and hot
Spit my lines for Palestine and I never stop
And that's my view from this Western Box. ..

CHORUS X2

(Thinkin bout my life)
I take many perspectives
(Thinkin bout my life)
And I can't be so objective
The world's mine as I see it and I live it
I can't be nobody but me on this planet
