Don't Mean To Brag

from Trying To Be Better by A-Fos & The Rude Youth

/

lyrics

Yo I'm on cloud nine give the tune to Skywalker but,
Don't hold your breath like Luke I'm your comma,
Rappers confused like Luke I'm your daughter,
Just luke warm I make 'em sweat perfuse like a sauna,
Flow tight like a virgin it moves like Madonna,
Glow bright with the verses, a new light upon ya,
So who's gonna rock it, few as in nada,
Houston no problem hakuna-matata,

A-fos a UH, choose like a dogma,
Food for thought they say he chews like a dog does,
The Allah, Dali Lama, Confucius, Mufasa,
Nah I'm just a dude try'na groove like a samba,
June through to August keep blooming in Autumn,
March through to May you get used to the saga,
Not a question, ask for the truth if you lost it,
Make room if you gotta ask what to do with the genre,

I don't mean to brag, sometimes I gotta,
I don't mean to brag, sometimes I wanna,
I don't mean to brag, sometimes I ponder,
Now whats all that swag with nothing to offer

How you gonna brag like that, c’mon c’mon
How you gonna brag like that, c’mon c’mon
How you gonna brag like that, c’mon c’mon
How you gonna brag like that, yo

Steady moving the product like its Gucci and Prada,
Louis Gabana, fuck your stupid persona,
Now why all you loonies in pursuit of that dollar,
You basket cases all wanna shoot like a baller,

But it's "le brain over le braun", Oh you no habla?
The king ain't shit when he moves like a pawn,
But I'm not ruthless bring the brews to the casa,
Keep your souped up Hondas and the hoochied up Mamas,
Hollar if you gotta change route like Obama,
Hollar to the girls who read the news in the column,
I acknowledge the ones that don't abuse 'em with drama
Too rude and obnoxious, but who gives a long fuck,
I roll with the nineties like a student with honour,
Inducing the trauma like a fruity piñata,
No hand of God but the rule didn't stop us,
Rapping Maradona what his youth is to soccer, now

I don't mean to brag, sometimes I gotta,
I don't mean to brag, sometimes I wanna,
I don't mean to brag, sometimes I ponder,
Now whats all that swag with nothing to offer

How you gonna brag like that, c’mon c’mon
How you gonna brag like that, c’mon c’mon
How you gonna brag like that, c’mon c’mon
How you gonna brag like that
