Rome (feat. Myer Clarity)

Hook (Myer Clarity):

Days go by, you win, you lose,

You’ve fallen down, you’re on the ground,

And if you fall, you get back up and clean your face,

‘Coz Rome wasn’t built in a day,

Rome wasn’t built in a day,

I don’t know what else to say,

My empire’s here to stay,

Verse 1 (Cee):

And nothing ever is,

I got some questions but the message is to mind your biz,

I took the lesson, turning left when bustin' right the shit,

So I remembered why I'm here and staying hype to spit, these hazy nights with Tiff,

We at the crib, reinforcing the foundation,

Frustrated but the ups is too ill just to downplay it,

Every brick we securing comes equipped with insurance,

If we slip, we enduring, take a hit, we record it,

And the clique, we exhausted, still we get on with it,

We soldiers of the struggle, in the mission, we ain't aborting shit,

Nobody helping, not a soul came to the rescue,

We was forced to bust the windows of the doors we couldn't get through,

Now they checking for us, a decade later and we ready for 'em,

TMF the forces, proletariat and nobles adoring,

Share the calling, we Augustus, we are Caesar,

Montreal is modern Rome, either you with us or it's treason, ‘coz the

Verse 2 (Myer Clarity):

Pause for a moment I need to take a breath,

All I imagined, what’s that you say again?

Coliseum built from a paper sketch,

We all start somewhere, have them silver spoons made you rich?

I sit back, watching it come to life,

The product of all these nights, from trauma to all this triumphs,

Thought I was all bark? Under dog got a bite,

Greatest flaws now set me a part from the other guys,

All my people in sight, walk with me through the night,

Hang on every single syllable I speak through the mic,

And if you see yourself in me then we can really unite,

And make elitists lose they heads when they get guillotined, right?

It’s like, thank Cee for granting me, this moment of Clarity,

This moment of honesty, built more than a spot for me,

Hilroy to a property, shit, boy, I’ma prodigy,

Built Rome in an hour, you’d kill just to live your life like me
