Guess I Could Video (MV)

Yeah
I'ma let these other dudes talk about how they're the best
I'm just gonna get right into it and prove it
Phazes, you ready?
Then let's go

I'd say I'm back but I never left
And I could say I'm right but I never guessed
I could talk shit for days but I never would
But I could if I wanted, yeah I guess I could
I'd say I'm back but I never left
And I could say I'm right but I never guessed
I could talk shit for days but I never would
But I could if I wanted, yeah I guess I could

It's Illy Illy, yeah back again, backing it up
Sophomore slum not happening, chum
Still ride through the Frankston line in my VX
System cranked to all f*ck, black cap with the hoodie up
I got 'em tripping like I stuck my foot out
Turnaround so quick 'cause it reads so sick
That my rhyme book is hard to put down
But it's always a safe bet that anything I put out's how hip-hop should sound
They used to tell me my vocal chords didn't warrant a snowballs chance
Ain't got a snowball no more man
I got an avalanche
Look at what I created with my two bare hands, when given half a chance
I'm representing the future
So I don't need no guest verses to prove shit, just talented producers
Phizzle we still killing em before he hit the tarmac to split
Left me some classic boombap as a parting gift
Thanks for that, took it, ran with it and I never looked back
I put my patch smack bang on a map
Burn city where you at?


I'd say I'm back but I never left
And I could say I'm right but I never guessed
I could talk shit for days but I never would
But I could if I wanted, yeah I guess I could
I'd say I'm back but I never left
And I could say I'm right but I never guessed
I could talk shit for days but I never would
But I could if I wanted, yeah I guess I could

Raised middle finger to your raised nose, home sweet home on a beat
I make 'em move like the rates rose
I know whats up, whats nothing and what matters most
I ain't acting what I'm not knowing that I don't, never that
I take none of this for granted, the privilege ain't lost on me
It's common knowledge any minute it could stop (shit)
So even when humility is tossed with the brags
Still always thanks given for the props
In this chase that I'm on, the road's steep
I could tell you 'bout the peaks, the lows, little bit about the nosebleeds
A little bit about weekends on no sleep
Or jumping deep ends with both feet
But it's worth it for my folks' smiles when I tell them bout my nights
Or the front row reciting back every single line
Or the people thanking me for the lyrics that I write
Y'all pretty much validate the last decade of my life
Humble thank you, for round two I've been run ragged but I must add
Don't call it a comeback, 'cause um, yeah, about that

I'd say I'm back but I never left
And I could say I'm right but I never guessed
I could talk shit for days but I never would
But I could if I wanted, yeah I guess I could
I'd say I'm back but I never left
And I could say I'm right but I never guessed
I could talk shit for days but I never would
But I could if I wanted, yeah I guess I could

I took my hobby, made a job of it and honest
See the plane in the sky, or tune into the J's, man I'm probably on it
But still broke mate, my quotables
Have earnt me self-satisfaction and a few beers at my local
Slice of humble pie, shit I lick the plate dry, but hey
Not being big headed ain't easy with a size eight
The time took to refresh the page
We stood on our yesterdays triumphs leapt fences in the way, now
Danny's international, Phazes' international
J-Skub's a genius, Phrase is an animal
Flag goes the business, me? I'm kicking goals from a distance
Crooked Eye on that bullshit big shit
I'm like a proud brother watching all my peers doin' it
Still get a kick when kids say my music influenced 'em
I promise I won't stop until it ain't just
The fellas who be getting my lyrics tattoo'd on 'em, huh
I celebrate the past but can't wait for the future to start
Raise a glass for my graduating class like

I'd say I'm back but I never left
And I could say I'm right but I never guessed
I could talk shit for days but I never would
But I could if I wanted, yeah I guess I could
I'd say I'm back but I never left
And I could say I'm right but I never guessed
I could talk shit for days but I never would
But I could if I wanted, yeah I guess I could

Man, I ain't even give you time to miss me man
Straight back into it, shit
I ain't even left the booth since Long Story Short, man
We do this shit like no one else does it
Crooked Eye, man
