Captain by Ethos The Rapper Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Spent 30 years focusin' on wrong shit, used to think I was committed but would always split
But eventually the stars aligned and lit the way, and now it’s solely up to me to work without delay
Man in black, but my hat is white, never slack, always stay perceptive so that I can my watch my back in pitch black
And now I am here to hijack and I ain't after payback, there's an awakening and this a soundtrack
[Chorus]
All those people that tried to take a piece of me
I’m here to tell that you can have it's free
Never let you take a piece again, that was thеn, this is now
I'm the captain from the port to bow
[Verse 2]
Yeah and wе know that life's a flash, chasin' cash, tryin' to stash, but I pace, instead of runnin' I just dash
Ya'll too busy chasin’ ass, that’s why they bump your music in the club, that kinda content don't belong in class
Writin’ music that'll last, and I'm steadfast, and never once have I came in dead last, on hollow grounds and haven't trespassed
Got the sight in line, lighthouse is within my sight and now it’s leadin' me directly to what's mine
[Chorus]
All those people that tried to take a piece of me
I'm here to tell that you can have it's free
Never let you take a piece again, that was then, this is now
And I'm the captain from the port to bow (captain from the port to bow)
[Verse 3]
Surfin' over waves with ease, traverse the water as I please, even Neptune's with me on my odyssey
Only a man of water can see all the similarities and why I know I'm meant to be a captain of these seas
[Chorus 2]
Yeah, I'm a captain from the port to bow
I do it automatically, don't ask me how
Yeah, I'm the captain from the port to bow
Threw you overboard, didn't need you anyhow
All those people that tried to take a piece of me
I'm here to tell that you can have it's free
Never let you take a piece again, that was then, this is now
And I'm the captain from the port to bow
Spent 30 years focusin' on wrong shit, used to think I was committed but would always split
But eventually the stars aligned and lit the way, and now it’s solely up to me to work without delay
Man in black, but my hat is white, never slack, always stay perceptive so that I can my watch my back in pitch black
And now I am here to hijack and I ain't after payback, there's an awakening and this a soundtrack
[Chorus]
All those people that tried to take a piece of me
I’m here to tell that you can have it's free
Never let you take a piece again, that was thеn, this is now
I'm the captain from the port to bow
