Ali Shuffle Songtext
von Pegz

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Suede air stabs, shaved haircut
Black Evisu′s with one leg cuffed
Bape up top with the Raiders deathtouch
Obese knuckle duster, take the head off
Oh, feeling better now
Polo frames keep the weather out
Stainless tag keeps a header now
Terry towel Kangol, ready to wet the crowd
Tipsy off the breath of Jennifer's wedding vows
Take your best shot, we can box for twenty rounds
Believed in myself so nobody could tear me down
Building confidence like a brickie′s calluses
And fifty thousand dark and risky challenges
People wrote me off like Jason Donovan
Every breath I take's a waste of oxygen
Now my name's synonymous with great accomplishments
Ultimate hater couldn′t shake my confidence


Gotta work hard and not break the hearts that love you
The rest is all show like the Ali shuffle
The rest is all show, the rest is all show
The rest is all show like the Ali shuffle

I didn′t wait for a deal to get my name on the bill
I came up on my own, puttin' faith in the skill
Hittin′ switches on the grave shift, radio reel
Pushin' Cherry bar battles didn′t pay the bills
But it laid the foundation, gave me salvation
Taught me how to handle the biz without patience
They said I'd never make it off central station
And I exceeded everyone′s expectations
Gotta do my own thing 'cause death is waitin'
Like desperate housewives on medication
Oh, feeling better now, ready to get it out
More conviction than a politician′s rented crowd
Spittin′ a phrase with hip-hop relevance
Grippin' the brakes like six-pot calibres
Scum so dirty can′t rinse off elements
Building confidence like a kid's intelligence


Gotta work hard and not break the hearts that love you
The rest is all show like the Ali shuffle
The rest is all show, the rest is all show
The rest is all show like the Ali shuffle
Gotta work hard and not break the hearts that love you
The rest is all show like the Ali shuffle
The rest is all show, the rest is all show
The rest is all show like the Ali shuffle

I′m feelin' optimistic but it′s hard to come to
Making music's not half the struggle
Gotta work hard and not break the hearts that love you
The rest is all show like the Ali shuffle
Boo-ya, boo-ya, take a glimpse of the future
No crystal ball, we got kids in the schoolyard
Kings on the street like linked by computer
Clockers on the rooftop sing like a crooner
No pain, no gain, some drown, some break
Some people just survive to tell their fate
Some dedicate everything to elevate
Some fall off and only got themselves to blame
I'm not intimidated, it′s not a competition
I′m building confidence every song I've written
Tryna push my sound beyond the limits
Like the Wu-Tang tape in my Honda Civic

Gotta work hard and not break the hearts that love you
The rest is all show like the Ali shuffle
The rest is all show, the rest is all show
The rest is all show like the Ali shuffle
