Jase is one of the most legendary Australian Hip Hop producers, and this is the second joint we'd worked on over the years. I really wanted a male singer for the hook. I ended up dealing with no less than 8 (!) male singers to try and make this work, and the big homie Jonathan Emile here in Montreal made it happen, and KILLED it. It's a real positive, uplifting track that'll be a summer single and video.
lyrics
[Intro: Jonathan Emile]
Yo, huh, my brother Cee
Movement Family
Jonathan Emile
[Verse 1: Cee]
Yeah, it's like you wanna have it all but,
A little something will cover you ‘til it all comes,
And when it all does, you're prolly wanting more, cuz,
And that's just only if you knowing what you want at all, son,
Most folks ain't focused, nah, hopelessly strolling by,
Living with the onus they born to die,
Waking up with no ambition, they plans missing,
No team to stand with ‘em, or their fam dippin’,
But that ain't how I'm driven, man listen,
I know I'm lucky to have a passion but damn it, I had vision,
I followed my heart, I thought what I want,
And even though I almost gave it up, I'm back on the job,
And some are saying that we living the last days,
Nothing here to lose, and no use living it half way,
So people, find something that's inspiring you,
Coz you never really know, you might be something they aspiring to, and that's real
[Hook: Jonathan Emile]
Too late, too long, I will, I won’t,
We change, we grow, we are what we know,
I just wanna be, I just wanna be,
This is all I know
[Verse 2: Cee]
Yeah, it's like you wanna have it all but,
You've been told that your whole life to hold up,
People poking holes in your dreams like donuts,
You let ‘em suck your confidence dry like 'Homie, go nuts',
And that ain't right though, they don't know if you might blow,
Politic it nice, yo, see how far that the hype goes,
And if you make it, cool, at least you've given ‘em a taste of you,
Another story for your memoir,
Get by? Nah son, we keep the bar set high,
Stay jet fly, rep mine with a fresh mind,
All the hate is noise,
A little static from some folks who never mattered, so their taste is void,
And some'll tell you that your mission is hopeless,
Just tune ‘em on out, the best revenge'll be progress,
So people, let the fire burn inside of you,
Coz you only living once so give ‘em something they be vibin' to, and that’s real
[Hook: Jonathan Emile]
Too late, too long, I will, I won’t,
We change, we grow, we are what we know,
I just wanna be, I just wanna be,
This is all I know
[Bridge: Jonathan Emile]
This is how my people do it,
Put our heart and soul into it,
Ba da da, ba da da,
Stop it, whoopdie, whoopdie, whoo, jam
They could never stop us now,
They could never hold us down,
Ba da da, ba da da,
Go on with the whoopdie, whoopdie, whoo, jam
One more time, my people do it,
Put your heart and soul into it,
Ba da da, ba da da,
This is all I know, baby
They could never stop us now,
They could never hold us down
[Hook: Jonathan Emile]
Too late, too long, I will, I won’t,
We change, we grow, we are what we know,
I just wanna be, I just wanna be,
This is all I know
