Energy by Grimaldibanks Lyrics
INTRO
VERSE 1:
How can I tell a story if I'm not a part of it//
I was never there from the start of it//
Lately I just wanna be the star of it //
And make a mark on it//
Like a scar on it
I used to freestyle used to mime with beats//
Fell in love with the art became a part of it//
Had a dream that one day I'd be proud of it//
Though I wasn't all dope at the start of it //
But I had my big bro and he stood by me//
And now look at me.. An artillery //
Shooting at the hall of fame, like an enemy//
Tryna make a watermark in the industry //
They call me underdog.. That's y I bit em off //
This ain't flap Jack.. But I brought the storm along //
I started writing full raps back in SS1//
Never really had funds to record a song //
So I rocked my school parties doing sing alongs//
Cos I had a passion and I had to fuel it up//
Rap made a huge vacuum.. had to fill it up//
I was on the edge of something.. I was hanging on//
Soon I had to let go without falling off//
Time wasn't waiting boy it was ticking off//
Was in a slumber now I'm waking up//
I had to step up.. I had to find the light//
And so I started writing songs everyday and night//
Try to show off to the world how I found the light//
Few years later.. I had to do something //
Gone are d days when I was scared I had no motivation //
CHORUS:
I came up straight from the bottom //
Out from the ruff and the gutter//
I just hope mom would be proud of me //
This ain't a dream it's reality //
Hope to say momma I made it//
I bought a brand new Mercedes //
I got a whole life ahead of me//
I'd do this shit til the end of me//
Bagging the cash like a lottery //
I know these people want more of me//
I just hope dad will be proud of me//
I keep on promoting the energy
Energy Energy
Keep on promoting the energy
Keep on promoting the energy
I never run out on battery
U know the hustle is part of me
It's the reason I cannot depart from this
VERSE 2:
I know it's true many people haven't heard of me//
But heaven knows that the angels always hear from me //
And I got a momma going on her kneels to pray for me//
Praying that the fame is safe for me//
Had to promise dad that I would go to school //
He knows I love the music and he thinks it cool//
I dropped my first jam when I got to Uni //
That's when I felt that truly I was really made for music//
I had to starve a couple months just to raise the money //
While I was starving I was thinking is it really worth it? //
Sacrificed a lot, was it really working? //
Did a couple shows free.. Wasn't earning nothing //
CHORUS:
I came up straight from the bottom //
Out from the ruff and the gutter//
I just hope mom would be proud of me //
This ain't a dream it's reality //
Hope to say momma I made it//
I bought a brand new Mercedes //
I got a whole life ahead of me//
I'd do this shit til the end of me//
Bagging the cash like a lottery //
I know these people want more of me//
I just hope dad will be proud of me//
I keep on promoting the energy
Energy Energy
Keep on promoting the energy
Keep on promoting the energy
I never run out on battery
U know the hustle is part of me
It's the reason I cannot depart from this
