Mama Said (I'm Bringing Down Fire)

Lyrics: Aidan Scaplen Music: Aidan Scaplen [Verse 1] Parked at my desk with my face doused in the sun Wondering if I have enough change in my pocket to make some But only through these melodies and these drums can I overcome the pain Inject the novocain, now I’m numb But when the words bleed off the sheets and beam into a reality That’s my mentality And execute with as little banality as possible Punchlines with brutality, causing casualties Now my rhymes blue and black, you see And I keep flowing like the dam demolished And won’t lеave the game satisfiеd until the man accomplished And just because I took my time don’t mean the plan abolished I’ve just been perfecting my rhymes, now the brand is polished You got it? Now listen It takes a lot of precision for unlocking your vision And it feels harder to get it with no pots left to piss in Glitter gold shines better in the light So now I’m spittin’ these writtens in hopes that I will glisten, uh

[Chorus] Mama said, mama said (Check it) You don’t know these streets like we do, we do Mama said, mama said (Check it) You don’t know these streets like we do-do Mama said, mama said (Check it) You don’t know these streets like we do, we do Mama said, mama said (Check it) You don’t know these streets like we do-do

[Verse 2] Yeah, because I’m all about my dough And if you don’t got it Lay you on the floor or out the front door, hoe Nah that’s just all jokes How else am I supposed to put a smile on your face While still flipping flows? Rapping for some chains Making my back crackin’ Now I’m a slave to the game Break it like a crack addict I done had it, need a breath like an asthmatic Grab the Craftmatic But let’s switch the subject matter Spitting schemes to get the cream then split it with my team Cause at the end of the week, I’d rather grow than compete Building the foundation with a nation up on their feet Rather than using their heads as area for your cleats And me? I just go along with passion But it’s so much more than rapping So big, I can’t even fathom it, it’s massive Why hold onto your dreams when you can take action? Just pour your brain onto the pad and watch the magic I hope to make a living off of crafting words and gripping mics Rather than 9 to 5’s, stacking burg’s and grilling fries I’m hoping that the future holds the passion burnt and vivid lights And pray that it don’t crash and burn But rather live for life Merciless mercenary on the mic so meticulous It’s ridiculous how much heart and soul I put into every word And I plan to keep it that way forever And I’ll keep that word until my blood spills and I hit the dirt, cuz

[Chorus] Mama said, mama said (Check it) You don’t know these streets like we do, we do Mama said, mama said (Check it) You don’t know these streets like we do-do Mama said, mama said (Check it) You don’t know these streets like we do, we do Mama said, mama said (Check it) You don’t know these streets like we do-do

[Bridge] And just when I think I done my very best I get a sense of regret, re-regret Cause mama always said Yeah, and just when I think I done my very best I always seem to repent, re-repent Cause mama always said

[Chorus] Mama said, mama said (Check it) You don’t know these streets like we do, we do Mama said, mama said (Check it) You don’t know these streets like we do-do Mama said, mama said (Check it) You don’t know these streets like we do, we do Mama said, mama said (Check it) You don’t know these streets like we do-do
