AGAINST THE GRAIN ft. DJ Rogue Lyrics

Liiiiiiisten

Roguie, I ain't racing brah… I'm done man

Cos I swear everybody just vying and competing for attention

Instead of looking inside and seeking their own progression

And whatever happens, happens 

I accept it

Listen, I am light, I am dark, I am energy, you best believe

Like Centipedes, I step with ease across many seas

Seen many scenes like Tarantino's directing me

Still opportunities eluded me, but accept was never meant for me

Never meant to be, not destiny

Like following hella peeps under stress and on the quest just to get the P

Heads full of jealously, obsess with lesser things

While I desperately search for truth... that shit that deaded Kennedy

And rest in peace to all those souls who broke the mould

Against the ocean's flow, but still try to row the boat

I come from a broken home, but still somehow broke the code

When notions overload, I go snap on tracks like broken bones

So hold the phone, whilst I flow heavy Express Trains

Hot like Jet flames, but that's so obvious like wet rain

My pen game, like prime Magnus with his Chess play

Place me on any beat, best believe that's checkmate

Yea, best believe it

Any beat

And honestly, I really don't care about placing

Listen, I don't play, I go against the grain, I refuse to race

In this useless chase where we're taught to duplicate and accumulate

Them obsessive possessions, if you ain't steady collecting

Then be betting cretins in our stupid race could have you stressing

Yea choose to stupidly ruminate 'bout foolishly 'losing face'

Cos you haven't acquired maybe that fruitless taste

For the glitter and gold, don't diminish your goals

Post, Gram and Twitter and Ghost, just don't filter your soul

Posting for comments and double taps, but let's double back

This troubled path to the beginning, we was fine with none of that

Same goes for mumble rap… but times change

They strange like Cumberbatch, like Rambo with his duffle bag

Drifting writing lyrics trying to mind my business, spitting

But can't mind my business, it's my business to try to get you guys to listen

I'm about peace, love and unity, but truthfully

If these guys try my immunity, then I'm all down for mutiny

I'm about it 

Load up the Guns, pack the Bats

Maybe it's time for the Warriors to come out to play
