  • Yo, I got my bags packed
    Crepe's laced up, let the black match
    '09 was all mine, padlock it, had that
    My own mind, front line, war like its Baghdad
    I took aim, target the frame, I let him have that
    Few of us are here now, many more to come soon
    Let a little rain down, get ready for the monsoon
    Ready for the onslaught all you see is Concordes
    Black clouds will end this, ready for the full moon

    I know, I know, that I'll be coming back around, yeah

    And I'll be coming back around here, I'm on a cloud 9
    Tell me how it looks here

    Maybe we can take the World tonight
    There's nothing that I wouldn't sacrifice,
    Till we made it, till we made it,
    I know we can make it through the fight
    As long as you're riding by my side
    Till we made it, till we made it, yeah

    It's drama, yeah aint ready for the drama
    Ring the alarm we are blazing the lava

    I'm drama, yeah there not ready for the drama
    What goes round, comes round that's Karma

    Yeah we can make this, sure we can make it
    Had enough of asking so now we're gonna take it
    Open the doors wide, size 6 for the side
    Rearrange the game, lift the cheek bones, face lift
    Yeah, now we've mastered the basics
    Only difference is you wasn't blessed with the same gift
    Thanks I do give, I count my blessings
    Magic with words, full life no tricks

    I know, I know, that I'll be coming back around, yeah

    And I'll be coming back around here, I'm on a cloud 9
    Tell me how it looks here

    There's nothing that I wouldn't sacrifice,
    Till we made it, till we made it,
    I know we can make it through the fight
    As long as you're riding by my side
    Till we made it, till we made it, yeah

    Just like that, they say learn from your mistakes
    But we plan to perfection, so we don't plan to misplace
    (round and round and round and back again)
    And I do it at my own pace
    Yeah

    Maybe we can take the World tonight
    There's nothing that I wouldn't sacrifice, no
    Till we made it, till we made it,
    I know we can make it through the fight
    As long as you're riding by my side
    Till we made it, till we made it, yeah

    Yeah yeah yeah yeah
    Black clouds
    Ring the alarm, we are blazing the lava
    And are they ready for the drama Writer/s: AYAK THIIK, FRASER SMITH, KWASI DANQUAH
