Everyday Lyricist

from #Pete Volume 1 by MC Pete

/

  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    A lot of people copped my previous album The Menu and proceeded to tag me on Facebook in pictures of their car dashboard with the CD case propped up suggesting my tunes were going places with them.
    This taught me that you motherfuckers like driving and listening to music at the same time. Well now it can smell good while you do that.

lyrics

Pen and pad by the river side
Work van, winter sun hitting hard on the window, right
The river flows from the source to sea
To the delta where it merges with the saltwater awesomely
Make you feel really small in this universe
To enjoy the short time is what you deserve
So if you toke, smoke some good shit
And if you don't, like me, check the beat for a good hit
A cold beer is what it's good with
I moonwalk on this earth trying not to leave a footprint
But try to leave my mark regardless
Not coming soft, more like Peter North pumping it the hardest
Live the life of a lyricist; day job, home life, then all-nighters for the lyrics bit
Some fade away, they can't handle
A little dangerous like riding bikes wearing sandals

HOOK:
It's the life of the common man lyricist
Got my mates and my wife and I'm killing it
Punch the card to get by, still I'm living kid
Got my written and god I'm living it
Love the life of the everyday lyricist

Pepsi Max, KFC
Greasy rhyme pad caused by the 3 piece feed
Push bikes, I ride them 'round the streets
With the brown paper bag on the VB
On the mic I can rhyme to move your feet
Or tell a story so vivid like Ricky D
Keep it liquid with the mic flow
The venue runs out of drinks at every one of my shows
On the verses, nothing but passion
On my person, straight glutton for the fashion
New Lo on every body part, check the fly
So Lo that's why I never get high
And this is why you need to get down
With the MC from the VIC with the Shepp sound
Funky fresh snap your neck now
Check the non-stop hip hop, feel it in your chest now

HOOK

My shit can get wild like a night out in Venice
Paid dues all the while, did my time like an apprentice
Forget the news, I know the drill like a dentist
When I get the blues I go chill back in Memphis
All cats see are their 4 inch screens
Look around motherfucker what you thought it'd be?
Life so boring, waiting to die
Death ain't a thing if you ain't alive

HOOK
