lyrics

[Chorus: Zuby]
We ain’t platinum, we ain’t gold but we sold 50K
We ain’t platinum, we ain’t gold but we sold 50K
Yeah we gon’ be OK
Yeah we gon’ be OK
We ain’t platinum, we ain’t gold but we sold 50K
(We ain’t platinum, we ain’t gold but we sold 50K
We ain’t platinum, we ain’t gold but we sold 50K
Yeah we gon’ be OK
Yeah we gon’ be OK
We ain’t platinum, we ain’t gold but we sold 50K)

[Verse 1: Zuby]
I’m a South Coast go getter (getter)
Nothing but real talk true spitter (spitter)
I’ma keep it briefer than Twitter (Twitter)
Live and when I die be a winner (winner)
Middle East raised so the grain’s kind of sandy
UK made but engraved by the yankees
Rappers talk grease but are softer than Bambi
When I drop hits for the flow you can thank me
I don’t watch fools, I burn off my own hype
I don’t watch news, concerned with my own life
And I make moves that I learned with my own mind
Cuz I paid dues that are over the toll price
Chyea, all on me
Never got signed it was all on me
Tried to gain trac’ but they never called back
No one helped us, so we had to hit the road, lead the way
Take control, be OK
We ain’t platinum, we ain’t gold but we sold 50K
They said “hold”, we said “play”
They said “no”, we said “yay”
Now I’m up and down the country hustling every fricking day
Started no fans then got more fans
I made more plans, got in more jams
Then I popped up, with the pop up
It was not luck, no one propped us
But fans, we say hey
Feeling bold, feeling great
We ain’t platinum, we ain’t gold but we sold 50K!

[Chorus]

[Verse 2: ShaoDow]

Uh, quick maths
Sold 5 for 5 made 25
Took 25 and made 50
Moved the 5 aside, found a 1 to guide
Made 105 and kept 15
I mix science and art to make history
Living off music call that my victory
They want to pay me now to learn the way and how
So tell your baby gal I'm too busy
I take risks that I calculate
That make your chest plate palpitate
That make you feel alive like you can't doubt your fate
I ain't down to wait
You can amalgamate or stay out the way, uh
You'll never last against me
Carved out a cave when they barred entry
Been a boss since I was half twenty
Super black man call me Clarke Kente
You can't dead me
I'm a glass too full while you're half empty
Charged ready, smart MC, calm deadly
You gon', learn today I'm the class sensei
Hustled on the road so you can't forget me
Did it and I own so you can't reject me
Winning in the cold so you can't infect me
Let me master the craft till the casket gets me
Laugh all the way to the bank
I be the tank and every bredder in the rank
Submarine Shao won't see me till you've sank
Or you might hear *whistle* from the middle of your camp
Built them fans in a way that's unique
So mind your mouth whenever you speak
25k each now do you see
Nobody can hustle like Shao and Zuby

[Chorus]
