(No Ratings Yet)An underrated gem from Skuff & Inja’s “The Skuff & Inja Show” (2009), Sunnicide epitomises the talent of both these writers. Skuff tackles some personal issues with his trademark flow, while you can almost feel Inja’s emotion…
INTRO:
EMILIANA TORRINI
- This is it
- I’m running out of space
- It’s been so long
- I don’t know what to saySkuff:
- I spend my life rushing like I’m in some kind of emergency
- Got to the point where none can say their verse is murking me
- People saying ‘I’m so sick’, you think it’s terminally
- And all for what? So a thousand people say they’ve have heard of me
- I get a buzz each time a find rhyme that’s serving me
- Its proof we’re still alive and yet to find ourselves in perjury
- And we’re still turning open mics to open surgery
- Don’t know what I say, that’s just a further anniversary
- Yeah I nod my head
- But time ticking the only certainty
- And every battle lost is just a battle won internally
- And in my book the pages’ turning irreversibly
- Running out of space, the days you waste are lost eternally
- And nowadays they’re flying by so this is concerning me
- Cause time moves only forward and there’s just no way to curb the speed
- And it’s like I swear to God there are no words to speak
- I always knew there must have been some reason for the urgency
VERSE 1:
INJA
- I’m running out of space
- It’s so claustrophobic and I’m trying to find my place
- The day to day chase just to pay my ways’ grace
- Like a dog chasing its tail, it’s the sort of life we face
- It’s gotta raise my pace cause the sufferings the same
- So no matter what you do, we all face the same fate
- It’s splitting my insides, I’m filled up with faith
- We all struggle inside so I’m fighting for my stake
- I rise through the flames that are trying to barricade
- Cause my aims on a supernatural sight I’ll explain
- We’re so busy going forward that we lose the old train
- So tangled in technology, our sense has gone astray
- I like a little land, little sun, little rain
- Link with all the people through my life that kept me sane
- I’d like to link my fam blud, once and my mates
- But it’s been so long I wouldn’t know what to say
CHORUS
VERSE 2: SKUFF- I suppose I’ve seen more riches than adversary
- No personal opinion of the world’s the worst that you’ll learn from me
- See life is just a race against adversity
- Converse with certain persons, my version of university
- Rappers with meaningless verses don’t really work for me
- And all that talk of ‘murder me’, I never felt that personally
- Put in work, my hands are dirty like a working bee
- Don’t know what I say, that’s just a further anniversary
- I’ll take this space to thank my Mum and Dad for birthing me
- Brothers for paternity and the masks I wear externally
- I’d like to say sorry to my friends who haven’t heard from me
- I rarely see my family let alone my own fraternity
- There’s nothing left but to birth my seed and pay for nursery
- Tell my girl my feelings and then step to the infirmary
- And it’s like I swear to God there are no words to speak
- I always knew there must have been some reason for the urgency
CHORUS
EMILIANA TORRINI
- Wrote you this
- I hope you got it safe
- It’s been so long
- I don’t know what to say
