Testo 48 rules - The Wahala Collective
Testo della canzone 48 rules (The Wahala Collective), tratta dall'album Everywhere is Nowhere
Rule one: do it right and you no go write it twice
Rule two
Be ready when you gambling with
Your life in these DC streets
Rule three: remember karma
She Naija auntie—she will find you
Rule four: don't be scared to fail
The ink only flows when you try
Rule five
Compete with yourself like you the only writer alive
Rule six: I don't care how hard it get
Omo, you gotta strive
Rule seven: pick a side
Don't let your pride make you a ghost
Rule eight: take the hate
Nah the tax for being the most
Forty-eight codes, write it down, take notes
DMV to Lagos, running both coasts
Soul intact. Rocket on glide
If you ain't with the family, step to the side
Forty-eight rules, no room for mistakes
Omo, we dey do it for the family's sake
Rule nine: stay sharp
God helps those who help themselves
Rule ten
Never let 'em see you down or the books on the shelves
Rule eleven: trust no man
The ones you feed will bite your hand
Rule twelve: nah, we skipping this one, move to the next
Rule thirteen: look 'em in the eyes
Firm grip when you shake hands
Rule fourteen
Rock with the ones who were there before the fans
Rule fifteen
Never fall out over arguments that don't mean a thing
Rule sixteen
Never break a brotherhood for
A girl or a temporary fling
Forty-eight codes, write it down, take notes
DMV to Lagos, running both coasts
Soul intact. Rocket on glide
If you ain't with the family, step to the side
Rule seventeen: When they show you who they are
Believe them the first time
Rule eighteen: never underestimate a quiet man
He's the one who'll excel
Rule nineteen: it ain't who was first
It's who kept it real in the field
Rule twenty
It's not worth it to gain the
World if you lose your soul
Rule twenty-one: refer back to rule nine
Stay on your grind
Rule twenty-two: yeah, make sure you paying attention
Don't get left behind
Rule twenty-three
Never leave the house without your pen, keep it ready
Rule twenty-four: don't leave your drafts around
Keep your vision steady
Forty-eight codes, write it down, take notes
DMV to Lagos, running both coasts
Forty-eight rules, no room for mistakes
Omo, we dey do it for the family's sake
Rule twenty-five
Don't bring drama to a calm man's world, keep the peace
Rule twenty-six: Respect his focus
And the blessings will only increase
Rule twenty-seven: fellas
Don't play with her mind if she's your foundation
Rule twenty-eight
Consistency is the only path to a lasting reputation
Rule twenty-nine
Don't sit back when the team is catching heat
Rule thirty
They can't shoot you down if you guide the rocket
Make it sweet
Rule thirty-one: forget the ones who doubted
They're just background noise
Rule thirty-two: if your brother shoots his shot
Back him up with poise
Forty-eight codes, write it down, take notes
DMV to Lagos, running both coasts
Soul intact. Rocket on glide
If you ain't with the family, step to the side
Forty-eight rules, no room for mistakes
Omo, we dey do it for the family's sake
Rule thirty-three: if the family bleeds
You feel the pain too
Rule thirty-four: If you stay ready
You don't have to get ready
Rule thirty-five: it don't matter if you fail
Long as you didn't lie
Rule thirty-six: share the rewards
Don't be the greedy guy
Rule thirty-seven: Naija no dey carry last
We finish the task
Rule thirty-eight: stay ready to clear the gate
Move how you like
Rule thirty-nine: stay one step ahead
Everyone is moving slime
Rule forty
Make sure the family in Nigeria is eating fine
Rule forty-one
Get your mind right before you step to the mic
Rule forty-two: Remember Naija jollof is always better
No need to ask
Rule forty-three
Put the work in their face until they have to see
Rule forty-four: if you betray the craft
You're dead to the family
Rule forty-five
Keep spinning the truth until the world wakes up
Rule forty-six: work like it's all on you
Then God fills the cup
Rule forty-seven: know your target
Make the message hit the bone
Rule forty-eight
Leave a legacy that stands when you're gone
Forty-eight
PG County back to Lagos
Soul intact. Rocket guided
Forty-eight
Forty-eight
