Classic track reaching out to various people by the Beggars alongside Syntax. Mellow beat. Good samples.
VERSE 1:
METROPOLIS
- What’s up Mama?
- We haven’t spoken but you know I love ya
- Don’t get offended ‘cos I haven’t dialed your phone number
- You know my living’s kinda hectic kinda snowed under
- You’re my role model, that’s why I’m catching no slumber
- You showed a brother what it takes to get to living great
- And though I make mistakes, it’s only fate, don’t let it shake your faith
- I’m on a paper chase through lacing breaks
- And it’s a struggle but I promise all your efforts won’t be laid to waste
- Remember when you asked me if I sold my drum kit?
- Sorry I lied, you were right, I was on some dumb shit
- Inside I knew you’d be hurt, knowing I sold off the fruits of your work
- While you were sweating blood and proving your worth
- Since then we’ve come a long way me and Kate
- And if we don’t speak for days
- SAMPLE: Don’t you worry
- I got your future in mind when I’m rhyming
- And any time you need me
CHORUS:
- I’ll be there
VERSE 2:
ORIFICE VULGATRON
- Hey what’s up man?
- It’s been a while still
- Been meaning to get in touch and let you know just how I feel
- I say your bro a couple of weeks ago – he’s doing fine
- Everything’s jiggy on the ends man, it’s real nice
- Things have changed just a little since you went away
- But everyone’s the same blood, it’s just a different day
- I’m feeling ? but deep inside I know it’s all good
- You taught me things about this life that no college could
- Remember ’94 was when we first met
- You used to cotch at Barker’s shop and laugh at ? next to ? centre
- ’95 I just remember blazing it beside the sea
- ’96 was when you got me listening to Hyper D
- It’s kind of weird that I can’t call you up or hear your voice
- But I’ll keep you In my heart for life
- No matter what you were always happy never sad
- Love you ‘cos you were like the older brother I never had
CHORUS:
- I’ll be there
VERSE 3:
DR. SYNTAX
- It’s about time I got this verse penned
- By the time you hear this you’ll have turned ten
- And that’s big ‘cos you’re not in single figures any more
- And to me it seems like a week ago you were four
- When you first came to England and you didn’t even know me
- You’d look at me all worried like you didn’t trust me totally
- But soon you’d look at me for love and support
- That’s a responsibility I’d never known about before
- I remember when you crawled way before you could walk
- Now you sound so grown up when I call and we talk
- I feel like there’s gotta be some advice you should know
- But in honesty you’ll probably be fine on your own
- Such a smart girl thinking with a mind of your own
- And I’m sorry I’ve been gone all this time while you’ve grown
- But never forget you’ve got your Mum to look up to
- And elsewhere two proud Uncles that love you
