You have to dig it[Hook]ThinkThink...Think twice before you step in my laneCheckCheck...Test these bars, ya know I play it like a sport[Verse 4: Verb T]Yeah, yeah, yo, yo,Anything that come this way bounce and ricochetsPraying on my downfall, nah, you best think againMake the right decision, applied the wisdomEver on the rise like the price of livinI sit and talk to my alter-egoThings change, will it alter me tho?He's so scandalous, just landed at heathrowHead's still flyin tho, magic rap dynamoSome died of old age, sittin tryna blow upBut I chase dreams, so I won't die in hopeI try and cope, life under the microscopeHeavy on the heart like years doin lines of cokeAfter hate, all that's left is painSo best think twice about yesterdayWe say yes today, not tomorrow, cos the aim is to set the paceNot to follow, The Owls![Hook x2]ThinkThink...Think twice before you step in my laneCheckCheck...Test these bars, ya know I play it like a sport
