Yeah, check it, check,
one two
Uh, back to the basics Yeah,
2004 style I wrote my destiny inside a spiral notebook Before the
world cared how the cover page looked Just a kid in baggy
jeans with a pen in hand Mapping out a world they didn't
understand No digital noise,
just the rattle of the train And a walkman spinning classics to
forget the pain We kept it raw,
kept the drumbeat loud Spitting truths for the back of the crowd
This is the realness,
the grit on the pavement (yeah) Built from the ground,
no corporate arrangement (uh-huh) Feel the kick,
let the bassline roll We do it for the spirit and we
do it for the soul
Now we trade the vinyl for the silver screens But the hunger
stays the same behind the scenes We used to cypher under flickering
streetlamps Testing out the flows on some broken amps Now the stage
is bigger but the heart is still cold Refusing every single story
that is pre-sold So turn the track up,
let the needle hit the groove We make the floor shake and
make the masses move (get up)
This is the realness,
the grit on the pavement
(yeah) Built from the ground,
no corporate arrangement (uh-huh)
Feel the kick, let the bassline roll We do it for the
spirit and we do it for the soul
Yeah, just like that
Keeping it classic (shoutout to the block)
One, two, and we out
