(feat. Sus Bully & Aisha Sheerena)
Hello... Hello
VERSE ONE (DL)
You can forget what they told you, they tell it like they know you
and try to enrol you with thoughts that control you,
so now you just wonât do or get what is owed to you,
all the beautiful things this world already showed to you,
like living life without fear
and making false promises and resolutions at the end of every year,
making decisions from desperation and lacking inspiration,
a journey thatâs without a destination
and never having no participation in a life thatâs filled with magic,
where you just a personification,
ornament decoration, nothing but trepidation,
life ainât a doctor and you ainât a patient in this equation,
you are the magnificent creation that God saw a vacancy,
decided to make you,
then gave you the chance to provide your own narration,
a story of uniqueness that has no replacement,
never said it was basic, feeling like itâs The Matrix,
people thatâs filled with hatred, suppressing all your greatness,
saying things that are tasteless, making ignorant statements,
so narcissistic, behaving so outrageous,
nobodyâs more qualified on you than you,
nobodyâs more satisfied in you than you,
so if you lose your self respect,
stand in front of a mirror and tell yourself, âlive and directâ, what!.
CHORUS (x2)
Hello, (hello) beauty, (beauty), you know, (you know) better, (better).
yeah, (hello) huowh, (beauty), huowh, (you know) huowh, (better).
REFRAIN (x2)
Cos you know better than what they tell ya,
yeah you know better than what they say,
so give yourself a reason to love tomorrow.
and push away the pain from yesterday.
VERSE TWO (Sus Bully)
Listen, look,
we all wanna shine when the sun don't,
seeing clouds of depression showered, no hope,
trying to uplift with a gift on a down slope,
but the pressure to provide, man it's no joke,
smile at the grown folk giving you advice
when they ain't done jack with their lives,
it's a gift and a curse, I'm fighting middle-age with a gift,
I'm trying hard not to be cursed,
put in work, sixty hours on my clock-card,
putting in work, writing verses that they will never purchase,
why do I do it? And fight to pursue it,
when the money I invested could have brought me a new crib,
a new car, a new chick, huge lips and a new arse,
and you ask why Sus ain't him? Then you laugh,
when I pass the waves, seeing Sharks getting brave,
if I drown on a surfboard, who's gettin' saved?
A wise man said, Beats,
Rhymes
and
Life,
was the way forwards, drugs nothing but a vice,
ventilation for the soul, so let me find out,
freedom and independence, that's the route I'm all about,
so we show and prove, knowledge of self,
I heard it all before, but now it makes sense,
so I took control, no sittin' on the fence,
just me and my people feeding' em' live
and
direct.
