Like You

Verse 1 [ShaoDow]

Like a doggie sitting on the washing like me kick it off proper

Turned a little to a lot without an offer

I get the last word full stop no comma

So gotta rock with me like a rasclart Otter

Never been a robber

Never been a shotta

But I'm going for the gold so I stay away from coppers

Don't wanna be the top of the popular cos I'm not like the lot of ya

Common, copied, robotic don't even bother, NAH

Everybody acts so damn similar

Like Walkers get Rick or Gaz Lineker

So cautious, your fear is the limiter

That's boring, I steer from perimeter

Too much pride like some gathered Simbas

So I’ll stand out and embarrass ninjas

Lemme grab that cheddar

Grab them carrots

Grab that lettuce

Salad fingers

Chorus [ShaoDow]

I ain't trying to be like you (Nah, nah)

I ain't trying to be like you (That's dead, that dead, that's…)

I ain't trying to be like you (Baka)

I ain't trying to be you

Like him, like her, like them, like, I ain't trying to be like

Verse 2 [ShaoDow]

There ain't no one like me

And I'll be me even if no one likes me

IC3 with a potent psyche

So your fake ID can't control or buy me

The Grime scene don't want a guy like me in it

Cos slyly I'm not defined by these gimmicks

Unlikely to follow the line and keep hidden

So fight me you're gonna find I keep winning

Limits? I know you can't but I did it

These dry guys hop on a style and try mimic

Gimme five minutes

I'll vibe with it, find lyrics, then I dive in it

That's my business, I live it.,

How 'm I gonna fit mould when I'm bleach

Get a Bankai up in your nose you can't speak

True to myself I found peace

That be the kind of wealth they can't teach

Chorus [ShaoDow]

I ain't trying to be like you (Nah, nah)

I ain't trying to be like you (That's dead, that dead, that's…)

I ain't trying to be like you (Baka)

I ain't trying to be you

Like him, like her, like them, like, I ain't trying to be like

Verse 3 [Manga Saint Hilare]

Separate no time for their pretending

Suck out hope that they're all offended

I move different from when I entered

I don't need their bros or their begships

I'm not similar but their all alike

Clones upon clones there's too many to mention

It doesn't make you any better on the mic

Just because your clothes are expensive

And I don't mix up with them tings

Swerve them funny vibes when I sense it

I don't mix up with them bwoy

Cash flat but I still pay attention

Not inna di mix up with them there

Focus I just work on the next ting

Think plan pattern and move cah I don't wanna be like you

Verse 4 [ShaoDow]

Them man there

I don't even wanna have to friend man there

How'm I gonna follow in your steps and theirs

When I really don't believe I can't pretend I care

Yeah, bredder I'm a trendsetter

Beg never, endeavor, to get better when they send pressure

If you got a vendetta, expect I'll step up and make 'em sweat like a red pepper

Urgh, Ah damn

And I know unequivocally who I am

Literally, individually even lyrically, differently original so who're you, fam

It's not complicated

I ain't gon' jump in the box you came with

Complain I don't sound like the ones you rating

I say suck your mum and enunciate it

One of a kind, brother I find, nothing can bind when you free up the mind frame

Some of these guys wear double disguise but crumble inside, I'm a mind game

Don't flatter yourself you need squashing

You don't listen to lyrics you’re eavesdropping

Group think follow the crowd bredder keep sobbing

Go with the flow 'til you're dead in the sea bobbing

Chorus [ShaoDow]

You (Nah, nah)

Ain’t trying to be like you (That's dead, that dead, that's…)

Ain’t trying to be like you (Baka)

Ain’t trying to be like you (Nah)

Him (Nah)

Her (Nah)

I ain't trying to be like you (Nah, nah)

I ain't trying to be like you (That's dead, that dead, that's…)

I ain't trying to be like you (Baka)

I ain't trying to be you

Like him, like her, like them, like, I ain't trying to be like

Them man there, them g’yal there

Them man, them g’yal, them over there

This one, that one (urgh)

Him, her, it, nah

Ain’t trying to be like anyone, anytwo, anythree

Real talk

I’m just trying to be like me
