Ramlat Timson Str Lyrics
They say the long road builds the strongest hands (Striking in the same place twice)
While others rushed for quick wins
Some stayed patient
Laying bricks in silence (Beginning of the end is my life)
No applause No shortcuts,
Just consistency, sacrifice & vision (flipping around you find…)
What you’re hearing now isn’t luck or timing
(Destiny I’m rewriting)
It’s the sound of the payoff (The beginning of the end is my life dreams)
This is God’s Engineering
Born into chaos
Household of John and Rose, my saviors
1 sis, 4 bros, 6 kids, became us
Hatchback Renault 16 made us famous
Surulere Ramlat Timson, made in Lagos
Visually painting my past clear as I recall it
Speaking into the future feels like I’m crystal balling – intense
How I use my tenses is symbolic
You sense, we could be friends depends on what you take from it
Government played us, Dad lost his job life would take us
To the darkest places of where pain was
Strife and shame was
Lost a brother in the 80’s
Another in the 90’s
Our story was no different from the neighbors, no favors
Poverty would frame us
Exposed us life parade us
Dad could no longer aid us
Mum tried to take the reins off
Homeless and now looking for houses like surveyors
And father wouldn’t give into corruption to come save us
Born into chaos
Born into chaos
Household of John and Rose, my saviors
1 sis, 4 bros, 6 kids, became us
Hatchback Renault 16 made us famous
Surulere Ramlat Timson, made in Lagos
I found rap
It helped me talk about the things that made us
Maybe I could be what Big, Nas and Jay was – Famous
Performed on stages half the girls screaming when I came up
First time I heard Overdose rapping I almost gave up
Caught beef with my first single I tore the game up
Industry niggas asking what my name was called me aqueous
Scooped BeatsByJayy up
Way up as controversy plagued us
Kept the circle small you crossed us we broke your radius
Industry played us
Living wayward but still we prayed up
When the girls cheated back to pay us only did us favors
Social media made my brain touch
I couldn’t stay up
Till I met the son of Zaccheus
He assisted for the lay up
Born into chaos
Born into chaos
Household of John and Rose, my saviors
1 sis, 4 bros, 6 kids, became us
Hatchback Renault 16 made us famous
Surulere Ramlat Timson, made in Lagos
Choc city was my day job
I never took a day off
Blaqbonez made it and finally music payed off
While we’re celebrating, I’m dealing with major chaos
W’s and L’s my life was looking like the playoffs
Losses I had a lot of that
Lost my dad lost my mum
Lost my brothers lost my tracks
Relationships in body bags
Lost some money got em back
They tried to fuck me fuck em back
Cut ‘em off good luck with that
From that there ain’t no coming back
Counting raindrops, they hate us
I pulled my weight up
They tried to pull me back I pulled in racks I guess that made up
Cause now they pulling back I’m cool with that it’s time to cake up
If you’re sleeping, it’s time to wake up
I’m back nigga it’s game up
Born into chaos
Household of John and Rose, my saviors
1 sis, 4 bros, 6 kids, became us
Hatchback Renault 16 made us famous
Surulere Ramlat Timson, made in Lagos
