Stop rewinding the flow back
This ain't your modern day new wave or throw back
No jack, it's just a west coast thing
We shine brighter than the glow stick techno scene
You better check your exo-skeleton
And if it ain't the same ours then we'll wreck your team
I bet you're weak under pressure, we twice as strong
Homie, you ain't winnin' nothin', no, the price is wrong
They saying Brooklyn keep on makin' it, LA keep on takin' it
Do this for the spray painted bridge with the breaker kids
Black tops where we played since '86
Fake chrome spinners in the place of Mercedes rims
Busted ol' Mercedes Benz, blew up on the 405
No one's ever seen it since
I don't sweat that though, I think it's best if we just let that go
Here we go
Just step back and relax your mind
Yeah, my style is so laid back
No, don't stop now, just press rewind
I give 'em something they can playback
Let music be the one to define
Yeah, I heard 'em when they say that
Nieve, won't you please playback?
So I give something they can playback
Another moment, another day in these modern times
I wanna show 'em that when I'm flowin' it's more then rhymes
It's more then anyone expected
Feel it in my soul like it's burning my intestine
Best in class, now they calling me professor
Put me on a pedestal and wait for me to mess up
Little do they know that I'm never gonna crash and burn
Why the one's who know it all, always last to learn?
They call me Nieve, 'cause I always had a dream
That I'll make it to the top, from the bottom of the heap
So no matter what they speak or the words they choose
To throw against me, don't test me, don't mess my shoes
Or play me dirty, I'm never losing sleep or wake up early
'Cause you never gonna move from my slot 11:30
On the late night, show 'em that I'm putting up a great fight
Go ahead punk and try to make my, take my
Just step back and relax your mind
Yeah, my style is so laid back
No, don't stop now, just press rewind
I give 'em something they can playback
Let music be the one to define
Yeah, I heard 'em when they say that
Nieve, won't you please playback?
So I give something they can playback
5 years old
I was turning melodies into gold (yeah, yeah)
Some people said (Some people said)
Some people said I don't fit the mold (No, I don't fit the mold)
But now my flow is so solid, that it takes over your soul
Leaving you astonished and losing all control
They call me Nieve
I always had this dream to be the best I can be (Yeah, yeah)
Soon they're gonna see (Come on, come on)
Quick, give me the mic and let me spit it
If I grab it from you swift, don't worry I'll let you finish
It's been so long, since I heard something that wasn't so wrong
So I tell my stories in my own song
Try to get 'em right from the get go
So they never let go
Though everybody's got an opinion so it's stressful
They love the stress yo, I keep it high grade
That's why I'm keeping it movin' while on the highway
So if you try to pull me over, I'll have to pull a maneuver
Go off-roading in my Rover, here's a move I never showed ya
Switch my style, it's no fair when they're squarer than the kitchen towel
To step past 'em, I'm livin' with a passion
Realer then the lyrics in my napkin
Mixed with the skill that be built from my blood and bone
Shit, you gotta play it back, yo I love this song
Just step back and relax your mind
Yeah, my style is so laid back
No, don't stop now, just press rewind
I give 'em something they can playback
Let music be the one to define
Yeah, I heard 'em when they say that
Nieve, won't you please playback?
So I give something they can playback
Playback Nieve (So won't you playback?)
Oh Nieve, playback Nieve
Playback Nieve (Won't you playback Nieve?)
Oh Nieve, playback Nieve (Won't you playback Nieve?)
