Life Is.... (Interlude)

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah

[Verse]
From the pacific isle of Samoa via Middlemore
And still as raw as the day a little boy was delivered on
Deliver non-fiction, all real, no silicon
Been sittin' on a goldmine the way I been killin' songs
Underdog, but ain't tryna play this position long
The top cats is lookin' weak; I look gorilla strong
Ain't kidding, dawg, King Kong ain't got shit on me
Word to Curren$y, I'm flyin' but ain't got weed on me
You can catch me on a long haul ridin' Air New Zealand or Qantas
Me and Che hit the States with no sponsors
And accomplished more than most these fuck head labels did
Even though they had untold grinds to pay for shit
Pushin' trash indie bands whose resume's paper-thin
That play South by once then never play again
I play to win, put money on the line I don't have
And say, "Fuck it, if I fail, it ain't so bad
Bein' broke, I'd rather take a risk than be a joke
Who thinks he's really livin' life when he ain't leavin' home"
I'm tryna see the world, they just tryna meet some girls
And get in the club for free for a weekend splurge
See how quick they're on my dick when I reemerge
On some Jean Grae shit, they just real gay pricks
D-dot D-A, bitch, say it with authority
People askin', "What's good?" I'm in that minority
You thinkin' music sucks now, they're in that majority
Ain't in no fraternity, they're prob'ly in sororities
And we don't even have those where I'm from
People say the clocks tickin' down till I blow up, I'm a time bomb
But great stories don't always get told, ask Saigon
I just hope these songs click with people like a Nikon
Ironic, ’cause for that, I need for them to click an icon
Hit the ‘Save As’ menu button, yeah, the right one
Burn a fuckin' CD, chuck it on your iPod
Play it in the car, this some shit you can vibe on
Shouts to Adidas, it's been a while since I had Nikes on
And everybody else that helped the bro to keep the lights on
Yeah

[Outro: Ricky Gervais]
“Life is just a series of peaks and troughs
And you don't know
Whether you're in a trough until you're climbing out
Or on a peak, until you're coming down
And that's it, you know, you never know what's round the corner
But it's all good, yeah. Um, yeah
'If you want the rainbow, you've got to put up with the rain'
Do you know which "philosopher" said that?
Dolly Parton, yeah
And people say she's just a big pair of tits.”
