Enjoy the Show

[Verse 1]
Praise and love comes when you need it least
Got a pen and paper trying to unleash the beast
And it’s difficult to say the least but when I play these beats I think “Maybe I can make it to mainstream”
For seven years it’s been nothing but a daydream
And I know heaven’s near, gotta kill the gate keeper
Here to provide any guidance you may need
Keep the peace better than a certified JP
I like to keep the messages I spread short and sweet
But I can’t resist but to go in depth normally
Skinny physically but on another level lyrically
I’m that on-the-run hog that escaped the piggery
Survival of the fittest, the eye of the tiger
To get to the top are my ambitions as a writer
I’m here to stay, I’ve stuck around for a while
A fighter and a lover cos I kill ‘em with a smile
Years in the making developing a style
Began as a child, only getting more wild
I spit a one liner and they perk up their ears
Speaking that sincere shit that they wanna hear

[Hook]
The Ettrick Shepherd has no blood on his hands
He’s working on running his land and becoming the man
Poetry and rap is all I know so I just hope you enjoy the show
The Ettrick Shepherd has no blood on his hands
He’s working on running his land and becoming the man
Poetry and rap is all I know so I just hope you enjoy the show

[Verse 2]
Bust a rhyme, pen and pad, no pencil
Rap is my religion the studio is my temple
Put it all on the track, nothing’s confidential
Because expression in an artwork is essential
This is my time, stop clocking my spot
I haven’t got a plan, I’m just doing my job
No doubt that my next project might flop
Every single thing I do will if I stop
So I’m always writing, I’m always grinding
I’m always composing new beats and rhyming
It’s my obligation to keep it lit
No need for motivation to live and breath this shit
Got a bunch of songs no one sifts through
I’m that banana with a bruised peel no one bit into
One thing I’ve learnt - nobody wants to get close to a star cos you get burnt
The skill, the talent, all of that shit was earnt
In the shadows for six years about to emerge
The listeners can sit back and watch it recur
So let me entertain you when I deliver a verse

[Hook]
The Ettrick Shepherd has no blood on his hands
He’s working on running his land and becoming the man
Poetry and rap is all I know so I just hope you enjoy the show
The Ettrick Shepherd has no blood on his hands
He’s working on running his land and becoming the man
Poetry and rap is all I know so I just hope you enjoy the show

[Outro]
Yeah, ah, ugh just choked on my coffee
So my new album will be coming out…..
That’s it, it’ll be coming out
I will release it upon some day, some month, some year, some time so be ready for that
