Love, Honesty & Discipline - Funky DL

Check it, it’s fantastic, I’m back on the mic to speak my piece

These words that ya never done heard to be unleashed

I’m done with it sick fed up of all these lies man

A young bre repping the streets the ghetto Wiseman

I’m fabulous, got no time for negativity

Or stress other people contain and wanna give to me

They parasites soaking my love, they wanna live off me

But listened to the words of my Uncle Jamaica, Tivoli

He told me, son stick tight to all your family

Work hard manually, build up that money annually

Remember those who ran with me, so when I reach my peak, You’ll see Stixx and

Parris cos they began with me and Marie, I had to learn my life the hard way,

had both my parents but the two of them starved me of an easy life they

couldn’t give me everything, but it taught me bout love, honesty and discipline

You need that Love, honesty and that discipline

And with these three elements you’ll be sure to win

If you don’t hear what I’m saying I’ll say again

You need that love, honesty and that discipline

That discipline like getting up at five in the morning

That love affection, passion, adoring

And that honesty, integrity is something important

So take this as a warning to stop you from falling

Since my teens yo I tried to make my cash bloom

Stole stationary used to sell it in the classroom

Worked for three local taxi firms, delivering cards

So from young I learned how to earn

Used to go to the clothing stores and take

Two pairs of Jeans into the changing rooms but when I left the shop floors

I still had a pair on under my sweatpants

Removed security tags so I could get cash

And I ain’t proud of these deeds I know

That the seeds I sow could hardly grow for me

Cos when you take from the word the world takes back double, That’s why some

get deeper in the hustle.

I did a lot worse that could of got me into trouble

But put myself in music cos it made me more humble In the scheme yo it taught

me many things

That I carry with this love, honesty and discipline yo

I know a lot of people but I’m close to very few

Cos very many only want what they can take from you (ha)

They never walk with the fear of God

They always walk with this cool façade

Projecting love when they heart is hard

They spit stones when they speak

They whisper words of love but underneath

They shout words of hate they shout words

But they words just flake, I see through it

Cos they words is cake, they words is…

Sugar coated with Cherries on top, they words is…

Nothing for me I’ll never give up, they words is…

Poisonous, venomous so steer clear of that

And never fall into that venomous trap

Of being taking too easy, they say kindness is

Your weakness so believe me don’t take these words lightly

Or you might be unlikely to ever win

So carry love, honesty and that discipline

Uh, uh.

uh, uh, (repeatedly for 7 bars)

CHORUS (omitting last line)
