Minus2

From Ghost Writer2014

Lyrics

Minus2

[Intro: MIK]

Yes

We're here

And you know when

Things happen

There's gotta be a reason why it happens

But you don't know the reason

So you just have to say

"Shit happens for a reason, DD"

Yeah?

Oh

[Verse 1: MIK]

You little shiner

Man already know I'm the king of the one-liner

Big body ting, I be pushing it inside her

Step inna the dance, brukked out the night rider

Kill 'em with the yoga flame, yeah, that's fire

Heard you wanna copy the flow but that's a minor

Can't copy this one, this one's designer

Man follow me like I'm the Pied Piper

When I've got the mic in my hand, I get hyper

I don't wanna hear no talk about freestyle

I don't wanna hear no talk about cypher

Word on the road is I'm the ghostwriter

So much drive in the system, driver

About this track

"Minus2" is a song by Starkey from the album Ghost Writer, released in 2014.

Man are old school like Tinchy Stryder

Let me see the gunfingers like Stryder

Over your head like bird on wire

Man have got stripes on my back like tiger

Not that Tiger, animal tiger

Kill 'em with the kung fu crouching tiger

Got a bad bitch on my dick like Eve

Trust me when I say that's a rough rider

Gold in my mout so it shines when I smile-a

Money upfront, yeah, that's what I like-a

Could've been a wasteman doing mad time-a

But I've got a vision that's clear and wider

So I spin webs like a garden spider

Future's bright so it's gonna get brighter

Ray-Bans on in the middle of the night-a

Block out the demons till it gets lighter

So many wars I've had, Street Fighter

Man are like "god, you're going in hard"

Nah, family, I'm so much tighter

[Hook: MIK]

Why would I stop when I've come this far?

It don't make sense like minus two

I'm just here for the girls and Ps

So why would I waste my time with you?

Don't get angry, get even

Too many people get it confused

What? You think it's a walk in the park?

Well, try that walk when you're in my shoes

Why would I stop when I've come this far?

It don't make sense like minus two

I'm just here for the girls and Ps

So why would I waste my time with you?

Don't get angry, get even

Too many people get it confused

What? You think it's a walk in the park?

Well, try that walk when you're in my shoes

[Hook: MIK]

Why would I stop when I've come this far?

It don't make sense like minus two

I'm just here for the girls and Ps

So why would I waste my time with you?

Don't get angry, get even

Too many people get it confused

What? You think it's a walk in the park?

Well, try that walk when you're in my shoes

Why would I stop when I've come this far?

It don't make sense like minus two

I'm just here for the girls and Ps

So why would I waste my time with you?

Don't get angry, get even

Too many people get it confused

What? You think it's a walk in the park?

Well, try that walk when you're in my shoes

[Verse 2: MIK]

Yo, yo, man ah touch notes like say I was a typer

Gyal ah get wet like a windscreen wiper

Liff up the front wheel, R1 biker

Skid around the corner, shots like Miker

5'6" but I'm still a big rhymer

These man ah bite my style, vampire

So I stay strapped with the 49er

Man ah move mountains, mountain-climber

You little arsehole

Man already know I'm the king of the whole castle

Bring it to your door like postman and parcel

Anyone who copy the flow, here's a sample

Me on the tune, that's too much damage

In other words, I'm way too harmful

Lost my link but she gave me a slap

But it's OK cause I gave her an armful

You little batty

God already told me how you move scatty

Catting for the toes and eating out batty

Bun out your mout like uncle's what?

Bun out your mout like uncle's patty

Fly man down in a tinted whip

Jump out, I'm gone, Ducatti

Leave bare sweat on your forehead

Like a fat boy in gym, you fatty

Lord of the Mics, I was there with Ratty

Lord of the Mics, I was there with who?

Lord of the Mics, I was there in my red Air Force Ones

And my full FT crew

If it ain't FT, I don't wanna know

If it ain't money upfront, I don't wanna go

I've been doing this since two-double-O

[Hook: MIK]

Why would I stop when I've come this far?

It don't make sense like minus two

I'm just here for the girls and Ps

So why would I waste my time with you?

Don't get angry, get even

Too many people get it confused

What? You think it's a walk in the park?

Well, try that walk when you're in my shoes

Why would I stop when I've come this far?

It don't make sense like minus two

I'm just here for the girls and Ps

So why would I waste my time with you?

Don't get angry, get even

Too many people get it confused

What? You think it's a walk in the park?

Well, try that walk when you're in my shoes
