Uptown
Uptown Vibes: Triumph, Ambition, and Evolution in Steez Malase's 2020 Anthem
Lyrics
2020, it’s January I’m just getting started,
Beginning of the year 2020, starting something new.
Said by many, but many others never kept the promise.
Many talk about starting but fail to keep their promises.
Word is bond, my word is bond, best believe me when I say I’m on.
Emphasizing commitment and reliability in words and actions.
I been working from the very start that’s OT genesis.
Working hard since the beginning, referencing OT Genesis.
We ain’t speaking if I don’t see the benefits,
Selective communication; interactions based on mutual benefits.
Man I’m all about the win wins, I gotta get it.
Focused on achieving victories, determined to succeed.
I done came up on my own two, I want all the credit.
Desiring acknowledgment for personal achievements.
Best be sending that shit my way, member we use to hit the shows and split it five ways.
Asking for recognition and rewards for past efforts.
Humble beginnings, detours round the 4K.
Started with humble beginnings, faced obstacles but persevered.
It’s For the city, know they fuck with me the long way. Tell me who doubting it, i show them where the work at.
Dedicated to the city, confident in local support.
I’m in my euro writing raps you know I murk that.
Writing rap lyrics in a European location with confidence.
I been a problem, you should take a silver lining from it.
Having a significant impact, encouraging positive perspective.
Been educating all my youngins this the timing for it.
Teaching and guiding younger individuals, recognizing the timing.
We want all the smoke we aint shying from it.
Confrontational attitude, unafraid of challenges.
Whole team never took the summer off,
Team's dedication, avoiding breaks during the summer, emphasizing competition.
Cause we aint tryna run in with the runners up
-Whole team never took the summer off,
-Cause we aint tryna run in with the…
-I never did drill probably never will.
Avoiding negative activities, aiming for abundance for the whole team.
Tryna flip that coin like we center field
-Till It’s all you can eat for the whole team,
-Man, We don’t wanna piece we want the whole thing
-Boy I’m uptown, I ain’t worry bout nothing Know we up now.
Confident and carefree in an uptown lifestyle, enjoying success.
I done came up from when I use to bus round.
Reflecting on past struggles, gaining love and acceptance.
They use to hate me now they love me like wassup now.
-I’m wassup now
Emphasizing current positive status and success.
Funny how things change when you getting paid,
Noting changes with financial success, caution about opportunistic friends, emphasizing success and avoiding losses.
Old friends tend to come running your way.
-Remember they were ducking back when they was having better days
-Claiming they working but got nothing on their resume
-Where it at? Where the new shit that’s a throwback.
-Better back what you saying, we don’t play we just get the bag.
-Never took a L, I be where the winners at.
-On my winner shit remember that boy.
Reiterating a winning mindset and success.
