They Say Songtext
von Calm

They say you can′t do it, they say it's not realistic
They say you don′t fit in, don't risk it you're a misfit
We started with a Radio Shack mic in Park Hill
Back when you if you were at the Holly after dark you could get killed
We showed up to local battles, did our first show at east Colfax
Performed where ever we could, we did it all with no road maps
Bugaboo gave us a show, shout to Mike and Fly Jedi
Toured all over the country, driving all night with red eyes
We failed, got rejected, stayed persistent, that′s the lesson Studied the legends, Large Pro, Big Daddy Kane, no half stepping
When Things Fall Apart go back to
your Roots, for Love I′m always Questing
Try to find the Tipping Point, it's Game Theory, keep em guessing
We did our first album release in the basement of a bookstore
We never get discouraged we just go back to the lab and cook more
They say a lot of things, I′m doing things, no say, I prove it
They say a lot of things, but they never say I can do it


They say why aren't you getting paid for the work that you do?
They say promos not paper, you′re getting exploited and screwed
We never asked for permission, attention is promo
Getting heard is the mission, some of my songs made no dough
You never know where art can go, each song's an opportunity
I pull the trigger and let go, being real will never ruin me
We′ve had our sets cut, we've got kicked off of stage
We just nurtured the wrath, planned the path and channeled the rage
Cause even when rejected don't ever change your message
Trust your method, cause tomorrow could be your death bed
No label, I use the internet as my distribution
It goes down in the DM, interaction is my solution
This ain′t bootstrap rap, it takes positivity
I′m grateful for my community and everything they've given me
They say a lot of things, I′m doing things, no say I prove it
They say a lot of things, but they never say I can do it
