Yo Mental...
If I had to count the number of times
people have asked me the old asian thing-
is it a fad or is it gonna last?
I mean bro you know me n you been doing this time back...
they weren't ready then and now they're all asking me like ahh man!
Am tired of hearing the same things
and saying the same words
that answer the same questions chatting
my own world.
I'm tired of sounding bitter,
this is so much more
than just a chip on ma shoulder.
See the strange thing is,
better rappers and better singers
have managed to find a need
for themselves in this business.
So you wouldn't think it would be hard
to distinguish a british asian brutha
who raps n sings english- wrong!
Forget the fact that I'm asian...
cause they said I was a copycat-
a whack imitation!
Until the media jumped on the bangaba[? ] scene...
all of a sudden this seems to be an angle for me!
thas why I hear "jay why don't you write a music
indian phrase a bit of panjabi
and soon it will be the latest craze! "
My language ain't a fad see honour,
we even got craig david to say "aaj pangra pona[? ]"
Haha! yo I don't know how long it's gona last man...
Maybe I... maybe I shouldn't have quit medicine...
What do you think man? mental!
Aaand that's all!
