I release, I'm a soldier at ease
We can never have peace in these Kingston streets (uh huh)
I chose to fight with my ink on beats (yeah)
Only dope I write 'cause I think so deep (deep)
South Americans call me Cinco Steez
Known for having the stinkest trees (uh)
Don't ask for a verse if you think it's free (don't)
What you earn at your work is my business fee (Yes!)
Yes, I don't tolerate disrespect (uh uh)
I start bombing like Inspectah Deck
I ain't nut'n to mess wit, you better check ya step
Hoping all my people resurrect (God bless)
I recollect, we lost some that rep the set
We was trying to see how big our records get
Like two training partners running neck and neck
Our highlight reel full of Spesh FX
Ayo
Our highlight reel full of Spesh FX
Verse 2:
We already made our place in history
Rapping till the age of fifty, facing sixty
The way I raise my city, I'm like Jay or Biggie
Most say Nas, this Jamaica, not Queens
The City of Kings, from the ground is hot steam
Di shotta dem badder than any block team
Man head sick, yow, what's the vaccine?
The Council run the Hip Hop scene (yes)
So much dread, I don't know what locks mean (uh uh)
Do this for the heads, yow, not the pop dream (nah)

Yu a sellout, I don't dig dat, zeen?
Nomad Carlos:
It's my type of shit right here, yo
I love that shit
Verse 3:
Catch me rolling around in my Mercedes
Vintage, in New York City, from Kingston though
On the low, ninja moves every time
Got the drop on you, out of sight, out of mind
Never seen when I'm coming, the silk on my body rest peacefully
And my toast close when it need to be
I like my scenery green for the inspiration
End results, keep my shit in rotation
I love the envy, trust me, I love the hate
The jealousy keeps me going stronger
Yu par wid di enemy, yu dead wid di enemy
And anyone a dem weh a frenemy, dem ah guh dead to mi
... Delusion's a disease
Can't clap me, Ztinkz, TS or Five Steez
Responsible for any hype you receive
In the West Indies, nyam yu food like cheese, how yu mean?
Our highlight reel full of Spesh FX

Cool as iced tea, I could bang yo mistress
Call it a nice deed, help a damsel distressed
Love chicks with ass in they pants and big breasts
Catch us on the floor and we dancing in step
Moving like we screwing and she gasping in sweat
The groove in the music like passionate sex (yeah)
We hit the sheets, and after we rest
She made me skeet like I was blasting a Tec
Chorus:
What's your vibe? What's your vibe? What's your vibe?
We could go outside, chill inside
Hop in the whip, let's take a ride
Pour sum'n, let's get high, let's get high

What's your vibe? What's your vibe? What's your vibe?
We could go outside, chill inside, chill inside
Hop in the whip, let's take a ride, take a ride
Pour sum'n, let's get high, let's get high

On the stage, it's amazing how I move
Every set, I base it on a mood
Journey with me, I'll take you on a cruise

Or I love you more than words can express

Yeah
Five Steez, J-Zen
Kingston to France
Check it... yow, yow
Verse 1:
I be the most amazing, chilling with J-Zen
Your favourite is Jamaican, classics, I made 'em
On numerous occasions, new innovations
Ruling the nation, who is the greatest? (Us)
My crew win the races like Usain in lane six
Like butane, I spray dis, spew flames and blaze spliffs
The results of listening Wu Tang in grade six
My group hang in basements, new brand arrangements
Still come through with Cubans and Haitians (sak pase)
Expect to get a hassle through immigration
Not a threat, we just do entertainment
Business with Muslims and Jews with the bacon (uh)
My life like a movie in the making (yeah)
Tell them play my music on the station (play dis)
I'm in the studio creating
The best at this, there's truly no debating (yes)
Uh
Yeah
(Yeah)
(Yes)
Verse 2:
Whoever I connect wit, I'm guaranteed to wreck shit
Stages, I blessed it, the club swinging like my necklace
Wack rappers find the exit
When I hear their weak tracks, I get restless
Their music bad for you like asbestos
Gotta stay healthy like my last breakfast
Still try to be wealthy in a black Lexus
Accountants to help me with the tax measures
Get money, but not at the cost of the music
I stay cooking up with special sauces and juices
Rappers want features, I toss them the deuces
These dudes that think that they bosses is losers
I'm talking to you, cuz, it's so disgusting
Where's the chrome you bussing? I'm sure you wasn't
You holding nothing, you only bluffing
We all know you fronting, no discussion
(What?) No discussion
We all know you fronting, no discussion

We Can Never Know

We can never know
We can never know
Chorus:
We can never know
Where the day gon take us, how the night gon go
We can never know
When your time going come but you reap what you sow
We can never know
When you die, what really happens to your soul?
We can never know
So I give thanks every day that I walk through the door
Verse 1:
I remember I got the call from Mordecai
Seven thirty two, number unrecognized
Cruising in the ride, Kera at my side
The man was telling me France Nooks died
Just last week, we was performing live
At the Scantana show, we took the mic
We rocked with Equiknoxx, and said yo, Nooks is nice
You did your thing, represented First Coast
We had more in store, what hurt most
Is the way you passed, I know the pain will last
I remember your gems and your music
A soldier for Pay Attention, the movement
Turned master from sensible student
Wisdom the OGs mentor the youth wid
You was on the Billboard without popular fame
Gone too soon, so we honour your name
Chorus
Verse 2:
I feel I'm used to death, I don't fear it
Lost four uncles, all grandparents
Many relatives, friends, even this week
A high school friend dead from heart disease
That's the second one recently, you know how it feel to me
Time is limited, treasure every moment
Live good, for your wrongs, get atonement
Deal with challenges like chess opponents
Seize the present opportunity for my community
It's what my ancestors put in me
I'm here to leave a legacy of goodwill
And speak life 'cause no man should kill
Life transforms but cannot be replaced
You ain't tough without the cannon in your waist
Reacting slow when my hands up in your face
You ain't a killer or a gangsta, you a fake
Verse 3:
Time will tell where I find myself
Wanted heaven, thought life was hell
But I'm happier now, I can rise as well
Aiming to tip any size the scale
Still focused on life's true meaning
Finding love, it's like a new feeling
What was the likelihood of us two meeting?
You tired of your dude, just leave him
People and things change so quickly
So I show love to whoever that is wit me
Niggaz I thought was the future now is history
And it worse when dem leave wife and pickney
I seen the hearse and the sight of it sick mi
I pree a verse and I write to uplift wi
So live in love and praise the most high
And give thanks for the days that go by
Chorus
