Testin'
Flowdan Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Haha, yeah just move out of the way, man
I'll know what I'm doing when I get there
Just make sure everyting's sounding proper
Monitors, the big box dem
Make sure there's a proper engineer as well
Yeah? I might need a little bit of reverb
Bit of delay but not too much
And then leave the rest to me bumbahole

Testing, testing back with a fresh ting
See a lot of things interesting
When a man chilling out zone
Every now and then, I go hyper
And tell a man stop chatting fuckery
He doesn't know a thing about rust in a used
You'll never see my girl in a snapback
My girl don't care about hashtags
She's only got love for the flow
Lady for the street but a freak when I'm home
I never get gassed on the timeline
See, a lot of them walking a fine line
Patience, ready for the right time
'Nuff of them ah get caught
Slipping on the roads
I love when I hear grime music
And when I spit bars with a passion
Strictly raw talent that I'm using
So I will never follow fashion
A likkle man said grime's dead
Yo, he never heard the war dubs
Grime will always be fresh
We just wanna hear it in more clubs
But nowadays, everyone's an artist
Everyone thinks that it's easy
They say they wanna stop selling drugs
Wanna shot singles and mix CDs
3000 views on the YouTube
Man must've thought he was gone
Still couldn't find one big tune
Nobody singing his song
A lot of them are buying up followers
Trust me, I done already preed
Mum's life, no likes not even one retweet
But if you wanna check my list
You'll see everything is authentic
Buff gyal get followed back
Breast and back off is always interesting
Gyal wanna beat cause they
Think that I'm famous
Run proper gyal like trainers
I never left evidence
Always kept the job stainless
Never let a side chick take pictures
And put them on Facebook or Insta
Link then slam dem the wickedest
And roll out cold like winter

Haha, yes man say dem stuff dere
Everyone knows what I mean, fam
And I'm not 'llowing it
No, don't give me the microphone, then
If you don't want me to say these things
So no one ask me nothing
From the rasclart microphone's working nicely
War ah get spicy

You never see me out for the banter
I don't roll out for the fun of it
There's always some don with a camera
Looking for a freestyle, fam
I ain't doing one
I show love when I see my supporters
I've got them in all four corners
But if you ever saw my passport
You would know that I cross borders
But I can't understand some ballers
Just wanna get up on the guest list
Say they ain't paying cuh
They know the performers
Wanna spend top dollar on a next drink
That's why my phone's on silent
Bun my weed and get hazy
Maintain a peaceful environment
Couple missed calls ain't ever gonna phase me
I'm the farrda but never been gassed up
From day one, I've been cool and calm
Every one of my stage shows gets smashed up
From day one, you should've known wah gwan
I've got time for a new wave don
But I don't rate every MC
Some of them won't be here for long
That makes them an any MC
But some weren't here long enough
I'm still saying RIP slinger, Depzman
Esco, NE
Then we got guys thinking they're rough
Just cause they've got Twitter beef
Dickhead, wasteman
Dem man are some fully grown chiefs
Then a bredda said he's holding green
When I got there, he's holding mersh jheeze
Dem man don't know about weed
Trust me, normal
Boom bormal, stick a lormal, fi formal
I'm the farrda but never been gassed up




From day one, I've been cool and calm
Wheel up that, star

There are always people trying to capture my every move


Looking for a freestyle, fam
Searching for an impromptu rap performance


I ain't doing one
I refuse to participate


I show love when I see my supporters
I express appreciation when I encounter my fans


I've got them in all four corners
I have supporters in every direction


But if you ever saw my passport
If you ever examined my passport


You would know that I cross borders
You would see that I have traveled extensively


But I can't understand some ballers
But I can't comprehend some individuals


Just wanna get up on the guest list
Who only want to be included on exclusive lists


Say they ain't paying cuh
Claiming they shouldn't have to pay because


They know the performers
They are familiar with the artists


Wanna spend top dollar on a next drink
They are willing to spend a significant amount on drinks


That's why my phone's on silent
This is why I keep my phone on silent


Bun my weed and get hazy
I enjoy smoking marijuana and relaxing


Maintain a peaceful environment
I prefer to keep a calm and tranquil atmosphere


Couple missed calls ain't ever gonna phase me
A few missed calls will never bother or affect me


I'm the farrda but never been gassed up
I am the leader, but I remain humble and level-headed


From day one, I've been cool and calm
Since the beginning, I have been composed and collected


Every one of my stage shows gets smashed up
All of my live performances are energetic and successful


From day one, you should've known wah gwan
From the beginning, you should have known what to expect


I've got time for a new wave don
I am open to embracing new and talented artists


But I don't rate every MC
However, I do not respect or admire every rapper


Some of them won't be here for long
Some of them will not have a lasting impact


That makes them an any MC
This makes them just average and unremarkable


But some weren't here long enough
But sadly, some talented artists passed away too soon


I'm still saying RIP slinger, Depzman
I still honor and remember Slinger and Depzman who have passed away


Esco, NE
And Esco, NE


Then we got guys thinking they're rough
Then there are individuals who believe they are tough


Just cause they've got Twitter beef
Only because they engage in online disputes on Twitter


Dickhead, wasteman
These individuals are fools and losers


Dem man are some fully grown chiefs
They act like important figures, but they are just immature


Then a bredda said he's holding green
Then someone claimed to possess a large amount of marijuana


When I got there, he's holding mersh jheeze
But when I arrived, he only had low-quality weed


Dem man don't know about weed
These individuals do not have proper knowledge about marijuana


Trust me, normal
Believe me, it's nothing special


Boom bormal, stick a lormal, fi formal
Explosive, informal, and casual


I'm the farrda but never been gassed up
I am the leader, but I remain humble and level-headed


From day one, I've been cool and calm
Since the beginning, I have been composed and collected


Wheel up that, star
Restart that part of the song, my friend
