Still Standin’ (Remix)

Lyrics

[Intro: Suffa, Purpose] Ay, this is Suffa from the almighty Hilltop Hoods You're listening to If The City Had A Voice Part Two Purpose and Hacksaw, what's the deal? Yeah, uh [Verse 1: Purpose] This shit had me thinkin' school just didn't grab me Steppin' off the plane smilin', chickies winkin' at me Kids in school askin' 'bout Cincinnati Whatever became of the class clown prince like Harry Trigger happy temper, had 'em lost for a year or so But I left that shit behind years ago Picture to me when inspiration strikes Got no problem payin' dues, name the price, I paid it twice The scene needs someone to believe in And when I look in the mirror I see him I'm 5'6", but I dream big Don't mind rules, handle biz how I see fit My style of samplin's vinyl tamperin' Cypher ignite, I walk onto sky, like Anakin My line of work requires some travellin' So I'm gone for a minute, then I'm right back at it 'Cause One Hit Away was an important step, to let 'em know That we appreciate all the support we get All the blood, the tears, and all the sweat From leadin' three lives at once, man, I fought for breath The night before, saw the set torn to shreds Next day I'm back at work lookin' like the walkin' dead All in a day's work, I ain't fallen yet Over two hours late, still ain't called in yet Fuck 'em, I can't shake it, my heart races Addicted, this is bored and call for the last station For that I partake in whatever's required Whatever it takes, as long as we get there it's fine So [Break: Suffa & Pressure, Purpose, LL Cool J] How long you been here? Oi "I've been here for years" How long you been here? Oi "I've been here for years" How long you been here? Oi "I've been here for years" How long you been here? "I've been here for years" [Verse 2: Purpose] Uh, I've got the wind on my back Every time I nearly stumble or slip up I'm back Some mirror my antics, I don't give 'em no slack The heads hold me down, 'cause I'm givin' it back It's a miracle that I'm still here, but that's A testament to the pressure that I feel on my back I remember soon as I could start diggin' for wax Right around the time that Hilltops went plat I thought "Damn, man, imagine if I could do it" Be lighter fluid on a stage, set fire to it I was good at writin' music, and at the time I knew it But as a result I got caught up tryna prove it That worked a little too well Music on the back burner became bitter as hell Still, you never hear me ever whisper for help Fuck that, man I find strength in myself Red October went well, man, they dig how I felt One Way Ticket proved that I'm on Elypsis as well Persistence is what allows you to evolve Now ain't no tellin' what the future holds [Outro: Purpose] I'm glad I came
