Now once upon a time not long ago (not long ago)
BbmBbm A augmentedA
There was an Occa kicking rhymes up in the land of rock and roll
C#C# BbmBbm
He's not a rocker, just a stoner on a roll (on a roll)
BbmBbm A augmentedA
Goin' all out on the road and tryna make the honour roll
C#C# BbmBbm
See I been all up in the dojo practicin' my braggadocio
BbmBbm A augmentedA
Learned to toot my own horn, blow my saxophone and my oboe
C#C# BbmBbm
Soprano, alto, baritone, mastered my high and low notes
BbmBbm A augmentedA
A augmentedA quick jazz cigarette then I'm takin' my solo
C#C# BbmBbm
If you ain't heard about it ask around

BbmBbm A augmentedA
If a, you know what I—you know what I mean, what I mean"
C#C# BbmBbm
Now the punters say the love the way I spit it on the beat
BbmBbm A augmentedA
It put the roof over my head and put the kicks up on my feet
C#C# BbmBbm
Nothin' changed, still a couple snakes, we cut them blades of green
BbmBbm A augmentedA
If a, you know what I—you know what I mean
[Verse 2]
C#C# BbmBbm
The sorta shit that they let fly, I could do with my eyes closed
BbmBbm A augmentedA
But I'm taking the high road, tryna scale heights, never fall off cause I climb slow
C#C# BbmBbm
See my sign's goat, as in G.O.A.T
BbmBbm A augmentedA
Make my way from A augmentedA to BB while spelling out what's plain to see

[Outro]
C#C# BbmBbm
Don't wanna blow my own trumpet, don't wanna toot my own horn
BbmBbm A augmentedA
Don't wanna beat my own drum kit, don't wanna write my own score

Turn it up and then they bump it up some more
C#C# BbmBbm
Don't wanna blow my own trumpet, don't wanna toot my own horn
BbmBbm A augmentedA
Don't wanna beat my own drum kit, don't wanna write my own score

But they like it, they love it, they buy it, they bump it, recite it
BbmBbm A augmentedA
Turn it up and then they bump it up some more
