What I'm Here For

It's really nice to know you
My name is Yoshifumi
How's it going, bro?
Can you be my best homey truly?
Born in Tokyo and grew up in N.Y.,
I ain't a typical Japanese
So, that's why
I'm in this rap game since I was 15
Hip Hop is everything
I miss Biggie and P
When I was a little kid, I hardly could talk
But my dream was to be a rapper from New York
I had given a promise to DJ Kango,
And I made it at a really great tempo
Ya heard?
Now let me win support to raise awareness and spread Peace
Besides money and fame, I need a lot of
real friends and a western wife to
have fun on the weekends
Look
Most of my friends grew apart like it's a fact of life
So, I'll get a new start

You know what I'm here for
Let's get it right
Bigots hate us, so I pray to save you
Ditch negativity
You'd better make it bright
But, please don't even think it is a lame excuse
You know what I'm here for
Let's get it right
Bigots hate us, so I pray to save you
Ditch negativity
You'd better make it bright
But, please don't even think it is a lame excuse

Tick-tock, Tick-tock
Time flies
I wish I could save your life
Zigzag Zigzag
We gotta make it big
Never say die
Hip Hop, Hip Hop
Keep it real, drip, and play with ice
Zigzag Zigzag
Come out on top in a positive frame of mind

Tick-tock, Tick-tock, Tick-tock, Tick-tock
Tick-tock, Tick-tock, Tick-tock, Tick-tock

I spent my adolescence in the city doing nothing
And eventually landed a job in Tokyo
Losing sight of the original aim, I sickly stopped rapping
But, my life is back now with audio
Let me skip some of the tough times I've been through
Coz it's nothing but a violation of privacy
Respect what I do to love life
Let's proceed without race and hierarchy
Thanks to education, I came to my senses after years of inactivity
With a reputation, I'll take up white Bentleys
Let's end oppression and inequality
It's a new species as a lone artist,
rising like a phoenix from the ashes
I'ma make a sea change for your parties
without hype and gimmicks, like gold rushes
You know what I'm here for
Let's get it right
Bigots hate us, so I pray to save you
Ditch negativity
You'd better make it bright
But, please don't even think it is a lame excuse
You know what I'm here for
Let's get it right
Bigots hate us, so I pray to save you
Ditch negativity
You'd better make it bright
But, please don't even think it is a lame excuse
Tick-tock, Tick-tock
Time flies
I wish I could save your life
Zigzag Zigzag
We gotta make it big
Never say die
Hip Hop, Hip Hop
Keep it real, drip, and play with ice
Zigzag Zigzag
Come out on top in a positive frame of mind

Tick-tock, Tick-tock, Tick-tock, Tick-tock
Tick-tock, Tick-tock, Tick-tock, Tick-tock

Tick-tock, Tick-tock
Time flies
I wish I could save your life
Zigzag Zigzag
We gotta make it big
Never say die
Hip Hop, Hip Hop
Keep it real, drip, and play with ice
Zigzag Zigzag
Come out on top in a positive frame of mind
You know what I'm here for
Let's get it right
Bigots hate us, so I pray to save you
Ditch negativity
You'd better make it bright
But, please don't even think it is a lame excuse
You know what I'm here for
Let's get it right
Bigots hate us, so I pray to save you
Ditch negativity
You'd better make it bright
But, please don't even think it is a lame excuse
