about

Follow My Lead is a staunch stance of how Cee & I look at how the music industry is greedy & selfish and manipulative at times, with regard to major labels in general. We talk about 'the struggle' of being up and coming artists and relate it to why we will be successful because we have a way to break through. We are independent and we choose to stay this way. We are paving the way for true emcees and artists. Follow our lead ;)

lyrics

Verse 1 - Notion:
Right here...
Im being straight with you dawg, so there's no use, you prayin' to Lord,
because he aint gonna cushion your fall,
im informin' you all, about the way it goes, politics and fame it grows,
girl dramas, label woes, how corporations strangle hold,
these new, up & comers,
all they concentratin' on is uppin' numbers, they some money hungry motherfkers,
people riskin they careers, like playin' lotto,
when im concerned about what-im-facin'-tomorrow,
coz I-know, we movin up,
you seen me stompin' with The Movement (yup!), workin with the best & still we movin' up!,
we breakin' boundaries, & date lines right-here,
its quite clear, you ignorant amateurs havin' nightmares, -pal,
we winnin' hands down, _ so why you actin' up?,
'Specially when we got the arsenal to back it up,
extend our hats with our hands, its a bank right now,..
so just fill em up wit your cash right now,/ we gotta eat homie!

Hook:
Look alive for the grind, time to get it homie,
We worldwide, it's showtime
Crowd depending on me,
So hands high for the night if u wimme homies,
Promise to never leave you lonely (never), Follow my lead, x2

Verse 2 - Cee:
Muhfuckas better study this, hustle on some other shit/
divided and we conquered, they buggin' off what these brothers did/
man they'll love it when they listen if they dug a bit/
open up ya mind and you'll buzz off what you uncover kid/
see our hearts where our wrists be, pride where the kicks be/
minds where the bricks meet/I ain't in this industry, tryina cake and dip, jeez/
y'all can hear my soul on every song, this ain't a quick feast, bitch please/
between the famo Nosh and I, there ain't a fuckin' thing/
we only close, we got a bond that only blood can bring/
and youthful optimism, the universe in rhythm/
the plan in motion, more than hoping, homie, check the vision/
we took a calculated risk by even coming here/
the passion complimenting the belief that hasn't swayed in years/
the lane created is clear, so we ain't bothered dude/
the reason why we here and y'all isn't is coz we follow through

Hook:
Look alive for the grind, time to get it homie,
We worldwide, it's showtime
Crowd depending on me,
So hands high for the night if u wimme homies,
Promise to never leave you lonely (never), Follow my lead, x2

Verse 3 - Notion:
We tryin' to make a menz, a means to eat,
So I been mixing tunes & fleecin' beats, kick, snare, EQ'd sweet,
I certify every-line, came from within my mind,
Stick my neck out for this grind, homie it's dinner time,
Yo Cee, we winners right?On all corners of the map, I'm not stoppin' 'til this EP is on they lap,
plan the attack, & press the button,
Ayo I'm lettin' my cunts in, weed, my daily function.
yo, don't blame me just bump it, & go!

Verse 4 - Cee:
Me movin' mountains in the landscape,
where the dumb cuntery is outlandish bitch, we outstanding,
TMF you rarely catch us heavy out lampin', we in the lab trackin' just to get ya mouth yapping',
its big Cee the captain, like Notion said it right,
music just to lift your mind, roll it up and set alight,
trying' to be a legend by the time im fuckin 35,
energy electric, if you ready we can show ya vibe,

Hook:
Look alive for the grind, time to get it homie,
We worldwide, it's showtime
Crowd depending on me,
So hands high for the night if u wimme homies,
Promise to never leave you lonely (never), Follow my lead, x2
