Ulu Up (feat. Rizván)

Ay, it's been a long minute since we last kicked it

We was on the yard sippin' rum liquor from ya mom's kitchen

Couldn't envision you'd be a slave to the system

The vacay you've been given got you stayin' in prison

Said you too ashamed to face your parents, it's apparent

Can't say it to their face

The taste of disgrace is coherent

Don't worry 'bout a damn thing

I got cash for ya canteen

Been checkin' up on ya brother and keepin' track of family

War mo aso uso uma

Uso mo aso vale

Even when they kicked ya out ya fale

Hella vave, ah?

Ran a muck had to muscle up in Aukilani, ah?

'Cause we was out to get the cream and green like palusami, ah

Bunch of young poly's, leoleos sayin' we hotti

They came into our neighbourhood, harassin' everybody

They caught you with the bag, in return you caught the lag

Whether it's water or blood

Nonetheless it's all love

Tell 'em ulu up

Whenever times get tough

Tell 'em ulu up

When you ain't got no one to trust

Ulu up

Leoleo's lock you in cuffs?

Ulu up

Just keep ya ulu up

Yeah, ulu up

Whenever times get tough

Tell 'em ulu up

When you ain't got no one to trust

Ulu up

Leoleo's lock you in cuffs?

Tell 'em ulu up

Just keep ya ulu up

Yeah

Now we was once two tokos of the same kind, raised and praised

Navigating through the changin' waves and tryna stay dry

But you lost your bearings long the way, you became tied

Up drowning in substances and chuckin' up them gang signs

Ram raids and agg robs, snips for the pad locks

Quick to run it straight and escalate into some bank jobs

Did a little lag and came back flashin' your patch off

Popped around the pad to see you baggin' up that crack rock

Puffin' on the pipe, your kids are right there by your side

You're twisted, misty glassy eyed

I see you drift and slip and slide

But it's like, who am I to judge ? Who am I, the judge?

All I can do is be a crutch, just to confide and trust

I know that times are rough, I see inside you find it tough

Focus on the light, I guarantee you'll find that triumph cuz

And though we've grown apart, you know my heart is true to love

'Cause when you cannot hold it, ill be there to keep your ulu up

Ulu up

Whenever times get tough, Siana

Ulu up

When you ain't got no one to trust

Ulu up

Polisi lock you in cuffs?

Toko, ulu up

Just keep your ulu up

Ulu up

Whenever times get tough, Siana

Ulu up

When you ain't got no one to trust

Ulu up

Polisi lock you in cuffs?

Toko, ulu up

Just keep your ulu up
