Navabhi – Something To Die For Lyrics
Artist: Navabhi
Song: Something To Die For
“Bye boys I’ll see you in a few hours
Gotta hit the studio, spit some new bars
By the time I’m back don’t smoke all the dope
Or better dart to the spot and score some more.”
Took a hit, closed the elevator doors
Felt like I’m already in the zone
Could freestyle a poem
Walk out in the afternoon as the sun shone
Immune to the heat, across the street
Staring tons in my direction, a guy
Bearing a hard and heavy look of a man on a mission
Not the first person to survey me in a wrong way
But I’m in a hurry, not wanting to be late for my session
Hopped in a rickshaw, “Borivali station le lo bhaiya”
As I took a seat my curiosity piqued
As we drove away I poked an eye out, peeked
The guy was signaling a rickshaw as he crossed the street
And while he was getting in saw a gun
Partially concealed in the back of his jeans
Why is a shooter consciously following me
Clearly to steal my lyrics or my life by all means
Hands trembling, I shouldn’t panic, that’s enough
Lose him in a crowd, the only way to shake him off
Open M-Indicator, check the right local to Andheri
A Churchgate slow at platform one leaving at 1:04
And when I came near the gate pulled a 50 rupee note
Paid the fare, ran up the stairs, at the top
Saw his ride pull up
I daren’t let another moment be spared
Camouflaged by the crowd I moved calm but fast
Stole a look behind, the crook’s stare bored into me
As if he knew me, in his eyes all I could see
Was death or rather a lack of empathy
Sprinted the rest of the way across the bridge
It was already 1:03. Seemingly
Slid down the flight of steps
The train was starting to leave
Caught it before it picked up speed
I hoped and prayed but he thundered down and leaped
Into one of the many motherf#cking coaches behind me
This mic is something to die for
Being the best is something to die for
Man this life is something to die for
Man hip hop is something to die for
Fear of death crept unasked
Shear bravery left unmasked
Close my eyes, hear the gun blast
Shit
“Agla station Kandivali”
One thing’s for sure I alone can’t deal with he
Is too driven. Should I call my homies at a rendezvous
Given he won’t figure out the trap and do me in
“Agla station Malad”
So I guess I’ma guard my own life, can’t fold now
It’s all in, no helping hand these are shitty cards
“Agla station Goregaon”
Figure there’s no way now that I live to tell this story
They’ll find solace somehow, friends and family
“Agla station Jogeshwari”
Behold the visionary who sees his own demise
The end wasn’t so near even on the most hopeless nights
f#ck this sh#t, I’ll rap till my last breath to put up a fight
“Agla station Andheri”
My train of thoughts came to a stop, I stepped out
And there he stood
With a piercing stare like I knew he would
If only I get out of this station and when I do
Give top five reasons why I should be top five
While I raise the roof for a new position too
If and when I reach the studio I’ll show
Every rapper who thinks they the best, I can go toe to toe
If and when I grab hold of a mic
You’ll hear what the greatest rapper of all time sounds like
If and when I finish this song
sh#t that m#th*rf#ck*r barged in, flailing his gun. My recording
Barely a minute long. I kept rapping until he burst in the booth
I had already burnt my rhyme book, he broke the mic stand
Punched me to the ground and looked me in the eye
Gun to my head and instead of fear I felt disappointment
The beat of an incomplete picture rung in my head when I said
“At least tell me who you are before you pull the trigger”
“I’m your worst fear of you never making it as a rapper”
“So my own fear is the death of me it seems”
“Oh, I’m not here to take your life, I’m here to kill your dreams”
