Rush Lyrics by Ettrick Shepherd

2018

{Hook}
I ain’t granted a day to myself
I’ve been tryna gain wealth
Making material to put it out and watch it sell
I ain’t granted a day to myself
I’ve been tryna gain wealth
Making material to put it out and watch it sell

[Verse 1]
Yo the fuck am I sippin’ on? The Holy Grail
17 years in, I’m afraid that I did it wrong but that’s stale
Sleeping on a bed of nails
School, music, seeking a job
To pay to get off the rails
Screw it, I guess I’m impaled
Tenacious of the hope I’ll make it but I know it’s unlikely
Don’t even step to the mic G
I’m here to cut heads like Spike Lee
In school days
Everyone was thinking “He got game”
Bound to get it, I dogged and hounded it
Take a look now I’m lit

{Hook}
I ain’t granted a day to myself
I’ve been tryna gain wealth
Making material to put it out and watch it sell
I ain’t granted a day to myself
I’ve been tryna gain wealth
Making material to put it out and watch it sell

[Verse 2]
Observe the ridiculous flow
No-one I know of is sicker than Joe
Fend off your crew while I’m sippin’ a Coke
You would be safe if you didn’t oppose
My rhymes are like alcoholics
They get sicker by the bar, son
I set the bar and got better bars
Than all other MCs, bar none
I wouldn’t know you from a bar of soap
You dumb cos of durries, darts and dope
You’re not going anywhere
But I make bushfire out of a spark of hope
I work hard - fuck sleep
Gotta beat up the beat to feel upbeat
Better than ever before and clever enough
To ignore when they cut deep

{Hook}
I ain’t granted a day to myself
I’ve been tryna gain wealth
Making material to put it out and watch it sell
I ain’t granted a day to myself
I’ve been tryna gain wealth
Making material to put it out and watch it sell

[Bridge]
As a kid I never had an anchor
Used to feel like the problem then started feeling like the answer
As a kid I never had an anchor
Used to feel like the problem then started feeling like the answer

{Hook}
I ain’t granted a day to myself
I’ve been tryna gain wealth
Making material to put it out and watch it sell
I ain’t granted a day to myself
I’ve been tryna gain wealth
Making material to put it out and watch it sell
