Teach Me - John Anderton, TM

RIGHT MATE SO THE POINT OF THE TRACK IS I WANT TO BE BAD

BUT THE GOOD TYPE OF BAD THOUGH YOU KNOW

LIKE I’M BREAKING IT BACK ON A FLOW

LIKE I’M HOTTER THAN THE SUN BURN THE MIC TO THE FLOOR

MATE TEACH ME YOUR WAYS COS I’M NEEEDING THE GREATNESS

BRINGING THEM PAPERS INTO ME BANK

AND I DON’T MEAN BILLS OR THE RED HEADED LETTERS

WANT IT BETTER THAN THAT FELLA WHEN HE SAID IT ON A RAP

I WANT MORE MONEY BUT I DON’T WANT THE PROBLEMS

IT’S NOT FUNNY WHEN I DON’T REALLY GOT THEM

STUCK IN HONEY LIKE AN ONION I WANT THEM LAYERS

AND I WANT THEM CLATHES COS I BOUGHT THEM

WANT TO SMOKE THEM J’S BUT CAN’T AFFORD THEM

WANT ME SONGS TO GET PLAYED BUT CAN’T RECORD THEM

TELL ME WHAT’S A BLOKE GOTTA DO IF HE WANTS TO BE YOU

MATE TEACH ME YOUR WAYS

YOU JUST GOTTA GIVE IT YOUR BEST

MAKING SURE YOU AIN’T NOTHING LIKE ANY ONE OF THE REST

YEAH YOUR PRESENCE IS A BLESSING WHEN STEPPING ONTO A SET

DON’T LET ANYBODY TELL YOU YOU AIN’T SETTING THE LEVS

MATE I DON’T KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN BY THAT THOUGH

I MEAN BEING THE THE FIRE TO THE SCENE BE THAT BLOKE

YOU TELLING ME I BETTER GET THE VENOM

AND THEN I BE SETTING FIRE THROUGH THE WIRES

WHAT YOU THINK OF THAT BRO?

YEAH IT A GOOD START

I CAN’T WAIT ‘TIL WE GET INTO THE GOOD PARTS

I CAN WAIT TIL WE NEVER LET IT GO DARK

HANG ON MATE CAN YOU TELL IZ WHERE YOU GOIN' LAD

BECAUSE WE BLAZING AMAZE WHEN THE FLOW STARTS

AND WE PLACED ON THE MAZE OF A LOST ART

AND IF YOU WANNA GET THROUGH IT THEN YOU GOTTA GET TO IT

BUT IT LOOKS LIKE YOU’RE LISTENING WHEN MOST AREN’T

YEAH I’VE LISTENED TO YOUR MIXTAPE REVISING

NOW I’M GETTING LESS MIXED UP I’M WISEING

SO CAN YOU TELL ME HOW YOU GOT THAT FLOE?

GUESS I COULD WHAT IF I DON’T WANNA DROP THAT THOUGH?

I DON’T WANNA BE ANOTHER KING OF THE DINGS

I DON’T WANNA COME IN HERE LIKE I’M DISSING THE KINGS

NAH YOU DON’T REALLY WANNA DO THAT DO YA?

NO I DON’T REALLY WANNA DO THAT BRO

SO I TELL IT HOW IT IS WHEN I GET UP ON A TUNE

I DON’T SUGAR COAT NOTHING STRAIGHT TO THE POINT THAT’S HOW I STAY REAL WHEN

I’M INSIDE THE BOOTH

I DON’T HAVE TO BE SPITTING ABOUT HOW I USED TO SHOT NINE BARS OF RESIN BACK

WHEN I WAS I SCHOOL

‘CAUSE I NEVER SAID IT DOESN’T MEAN IT NEVER HAPPENED BUT ONE THING I LEARNED

IT AIN’T HARD OR COOL THATS JUST ME THOUGH INNIT

I’VE BEEN CAUGHT IN THE MADNESS ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION BUT THAT’S WHAT YOU

GET IF YOU DON’T PLAY BY THE RULES

CHEWED UP SPAT OUT DROPPED DOWN AND KICKED

BET THEY CANT COME AND TAKE ME FOR A FOOL

WHAT I REALLY MEAN IS LEARN FROM EXPERIENCE NOW I ONLY CHAT ABOUT WHAT I’VE

BEEN THROUGH

IF YOU CAN’T RELATE TO THAT WELL JUST FACE THE FACT I AIN’T ARSED BRO ME I STAY

REAL

THIS IS ENLIGHTENED RAPPING

I’M LIGHTING I’M STRIKING AT ‘EM

CAN DO ANYTHING JUST LIKE AN ATOM

BUT ANYBODY TRIES TO BATTLE ME WELL I’M AT ‘EM

BUT NOBODY DON’T REALLY KNOW ME FROM ADAM

BRIGHT AS A LIGHT LIGHT AND I’M FASTER THAN THE SPEED OF IT

GONNA KILL EVERY SYLLABLE WHEN I BE SPEAKING IT

GOT MORE SPARK THAN A FLINT AND I’M PRACTICALLY MINT

WANNA BEEF WELL I’M IN

I WANNA LEAVE A LEGACY WHEN ANYBODY GET A BEAT

A BETTER FRIEND OR ENEMY THEY NEVER GET AHEAD OF ME

BECAUSE I DO IT DIFFERENT TO EM NEVER INTERMITTENT WHEN I STICK IT TO EM

WHEN I DO A TING I REALLY DO IT COS I WANNA BE THE BEST THERE’S EVER BEEN

I WANNA BE THE BEST YOU’VE EVER SEEN I’M RAPPING LIKE A FUCKING MACHINE

AND WHEN THERE’S ANYBODY LISTENS TO A BEAT I WANNA MAKE EM THINK OF ME

WHEN I’M DOING DOUBLE TIME ON A RHYME ALL THE TIME

ALL I FIND IS MY MIND’S GETTING FOGGY LIKE THE TYNE

BUT IT’S ALL MINE ALL GRIME ALL FINE SIGNS THAT I’M FINDING THE RIGHT BIT OF

VIOLENCE TO WRITE

THEY’LL BE SCRIBING THIS IN NEW BIBLES

YOU’LL BE FINDING I’VE GOT FEW RIVALS BUT I’M LIABLE TO FIND THEM

HIT THEM WITH SOME LYRICS THAT ARE SICKER THAN I FEEL

THEN I SPIT ON THEM AND KILL EM LEAVE EM SITTING IN A FIELD DEAD
