[Intro: Poetik & Lion Rezz]
Pimp shit, yeah
Poetik Suspekt in the building, yo (mmm-mmmmm)
I got my cousin Lomez right here (on the stereo)
Raggadat Cris in the building for sure
Soulchef, what up?
Lukan Rai$ey, what up, uce? Check (yeahhh)
[Chorus: Lion Rezz]
Don't knock my hustle, man
I believe in revolution (revolution)
Even if I might go to war (even if I might go to war, yeah)
You should already know me (you should really know)
I been putting it on (been putting [?] it on)
[Verse 1: Poetik]
Now that's the beat, that's for sure
'Bout to blaze with the flow
Put your money where your mouth is, burn like the 'dro
I suppose ripping Runtingz from Aotearoa to Samoa's
What the lyrics say? [?] with the energy
Jump if you feelin' me, [?] back the Hennessy
Burn skunk, I'm half-drunk, shit
They say my style is outdated but can't fade it
They say I'd never be shit but I still made it
Poetik loyal to the soil, I'm dedicated
Revolutionaries and black hoodies, I'm out goodie
Can't do like I did it first, rappin' for my city
Stop hatin' on me, nigga, like I fucked your bitch, nigga, nigga
[Chorus: Lion Rezz]
Don't knock my hustle, man
I believe in revolution (Revolution)
Even if I might go to war (Even if I might go to war, yeah)
You should already know me (You should really know)
I been putting it on (been putting [?] it on)
[?] (Take money)
[Verse 2: Lomez Brown]
I put in all every time that I start it
[?] to the stereo
Stereo to a siren, speaker
Speaker to the big gatekeeper
Before they was-a Insta-famous
I be trending on everybody playlist
Only in time, putting in the grind
Place to place and I don't mean drive
I fly-yyy
See, I make music for the soul
Mean I care about life
[Interlude: Poetik, Lomez Brown & Lion Rezz]
See, the trippiest part about this game is
You see people for who they really are
The ones that say that they are down for you, who are really just down for themselves (Ooo-ohh)
Can't [?] them around here and [?] (Ooh-ahh-yeah-yeah-yeah)
This is the Runtingz, we run tingz, tings dun run we
(Runtingz! Lion)
[Verse 3: Lion Rezz]
No [?] for the new kid
Doesn't have a clue who the [?] is
Meanwhile they lookin' rookie, where can you [?]
[?] ([?])
[?] (Bombaclaat)
Speak louder, [?]
Write down your plans, work harder, social media
Advance your time nuff a dem a tryna take from ya
Slick rules now we upon dem (for life)
Runtingz, we now in your area (area)
We ride to see your wheels [?]
Shoulda thought about it all before you dish it
Must be the mic, I'ma [?] and now I'ma kill it (I'm a [?], I'ma kill it)
[Chorus: Lomez Brown & Raggadat Cris]
Don't knock my hustle, man
I believe in revolution (revolution)
Even if I might go to war (even if I might go to war, yeah)
Ragga Zagga, much dope for sure
You should already know me (Come, come on)
I been putting it on (been putting [?] it on)
[Verse 4: Raggadat Cris]
No doubt, they really tryna stop my shine
Regardless I'ma go and get mine
Like work, baby, I do this all the time
That's the difference between you and I
Bombaclaats, I know they can't stand it
They see me doin' well independent
They tryna shut me down, had me lost and found
Tryna take me down, it ain't hapnin'
And when they gon' learn it's not 'til they concern
Then I come through with that energy
Man don't be mad 'cause your girl really feelin' me, no-ooo
[Chorus: Lomez Brown & Raggadat Cris]
Don't knock my hustle, man (Knock my hustle)
I believe in revolution (Revolution)
Even if I might go to war (Even if I might go to war)
You should already know me
I been putting it on
Don't knock my hustle, man
