lyrics

See me, I'm an old soul
Older than 100 years old
I came back to bring it back, Moloko
you couldn't bring back with the best Hans Solo
They are chasing a ghost, Motown with no soul
See me posted, I'm expressed in every postcode
watch who you address with the words, keynote
But not too many questions, no 33rd degree
Sometimes I speak in signs and symbols, conspiracy
I don't like your song, but every dog has its day
whether you capping with your cap off, or your cap on
I won't stoop too low, I leave it to rest
See this queen don't move unless you say it with your chest

They are out of line
Susu susu
Whatcy watchy
they want to watch you, watch you
They are out of line
Susu susu
Whatcy watchy
they want to watch you, watch you


I'm a different kettle of fish, I’m seasoned
I beg you take a closer look, See, man?
This black fish can see worlds, yeah, I see land
I let it fly with no hook, that's a Peter Pan
Many have come, many of tried, many have failed
Hit the ground, drop, fell
I'm an old timer, but I'm timeless
She was shaking in her 95’s when she heard come outside miss
They say I didn't know you rap like that
But why not? I gave birth to some of you and was never on my back
I backed out a bit, but I'm still in drive, It's still my house
You can see my receipts; I'm living it proud


Sometimes you have to give a warning, so they show caution because they have to learn a lesson, Rosetta Stone
See my door is not for knocking, no trick or treats
I dress you down with my tone, pumpkin
there's nothing sweet round here, no sherbert
I got my eye on you, Marvin Herbert
I was raised around the hustlers and workers
That's why I do this shit with intent and purpose
I don't care about your meetings or institutions
I’ll burn the whole fucking building down, no lie
The system was built for failure, it's an illusion
They are not illuminated, there's no light
