Ho! Riddim
Marco Del Horno Lyrics

They wanna know how I'm so high without weed in the system
People are curious how I maintain my high energy without the influence of drugs

If it ain't Grime or DUB I stay distant
I only engage with genres of music that align with my taste and style

If cross over was a genre called cross
There are people who would believe in and support a hybrid genre more fervently than their own religious beliefs

Them lot would believe it more than a Christian
There are people who would believe in and support a hybrid genre more fervently than their own religious beliefs

They can't see me in the distance
Other people cannot understand or appreciate my talent or vision from afar

My cd sells out in an instant
My music is in high demand, as evidenced by its quick sales

I give anybody what they want every year
I consistently deliver the music my fans crave

Call me Santa, Merry Christmas
I provide my fans with what they want every year, much like Santa Claus

Yo they shoulda listened
Those who ignored me in the past will realize their mistake

Now I'm about to blow up like a piston
I am on the verge of becoming incredibly successful, like an engine about to explode with power

There's a war against cheesy music
There is a conflict between genuine, high-quality music and superficial, uninspired music

And me and my fans are the resistance
My fans and I are fighting against the spread of cheesy music, promoting real talent instead

I'm real when I talk to the infants
When I speak to children, I don't hold back or censor myself

Can't wet me p's water resistant
I can't be beaten or intimidated, like something designed to repel water

Funny families wanna test me
Some families or groups try to challenge my music or my talent

I laugh 'cause they're just real life Simpsons
I find their attempts to test me funny because they are like real-life versions of The Simpsons

I'm sick every line the crowds like HEY
The crowd loves every line of my music and express their enjoyment with a loud cheer

I don't get rolled or stacked like HEY
I am not easily defeated or compromised

Listen learn then repeat HEY
Listeners of my music should carefully pay attention and absorb the lyrics before memorizing and imitating them

When you hear the metaphor shout out HO
When you catch and appreciate the cleverness behind a metaphor in my music, express your enthusiasm by shouting 'HO'

Now I go back to HEY
Returning to the central 'HEY' theme of my music

First line secnond line third line HEY
Repeating the first three lines of the chorus

Come on keep the vibe going HEY
Encouraging the audience to keep up the enthusiasm during the performance

When you hear the fourth bar shout out HO
Again, expressing appreciation for a particularly smart or catchy line by yelling 'HO'

Swerve told me come an rip this one
Swerve requested that I create and perform a particularly impressive song

Gave me the pad and I writ this one
I was given the resources to write and produce this song of high quality

See I'm known for the killer metaphors that'll murder the beat
I am recognized for creating incredible metaphors that blow away the audience and exceed expectations

And I'll have any witness stunned
My talent and creativity can leave anyone witnessing my performance completely amazed and speechless

P I gets it done
I am capable of accomplishing anything I set my mind to

The best times three I'm tripling sums
I am exceptionally talented and valuable, as evidenced by the sums of money I earn being tripled

Flow is amazing, so stupid
My flow (rhythmic word choices and delivery in my music) is incredibly impressive, to the point of being unbelievable

Man are like how did it get this dumb
Others may find my talent and success hard to believe, and express this disbelief by calling it 'dumb'

Can't lift this one
No one can defeat or overthrow me or my talent

Wanna tango get your hip disc slumped
Those who try to challenge me must prepare themselves for a difficult and painful battle

This guy's a wally, I looked in the book bare times
I have examined and dismissed those who try to test me as foolish and unimpressive on multiple occasions

Can't believe I missed this one
I regret not recognizing my own talent sooner

Never shoulda picked this one
Others who attempted to challenge me should have known better than to choose me as their opponent

Handsome, girls wanna kiss this one
My good looks and talent attract many female admirers

I pull girls, the only pulling you're gonna do
My confidence and charm get me girls, whereas others can only envy or attempt to imitate me

Is when your spliff gets bun
Others only have something to celebrate or enjoy when they smoke marijuana

I'm the emcee emcees can't stand
Other emcees may resent or feel inferior to me because of my talent and success

I make 'em all sit down like they can't stand
My talent is so impressive that I can make other emcees feel defeated or inferior, despite their own talents and achievements

If you can't cope at the deep end
If someone struggles or can't handle the pressure of their situation

Holla at me, I'll make you float better than armbands
Ask me for help, and I'll provide better support and guidance than a pair of armbands in the deep end of a pool

I serve more than a barman
I provide more to my fans than any bartender

Man of the jungle, call me tarzan
I am the leader of my industry, much like Tarzan was the leader of his jungle

Had a crash in March so I don't drive
Due to a previous accident, I choose not to operate a vehicle

But I'm flying, I don't need a car fam
Despite not driving, I am successful and able to travel and perform at will

Gone, can't catch him
I am untouchable and impossible to beat or catch up to

Too big for labels, can't snatch him
I am so accomplished and talented that no record label or studio can claim ownership of me or my success

Everybody wants me, I bring cash in
My talent and success make me highly desired across the music industry, earning large sums of money

I bet on myself, bring cash in
I have faith in my own abilities and dedicate myself to achieving success and making a profit

P, I'm a captain
I am a natural, respected leader

Your air, my air is a max ting
My energy and output are exceptionally high, to the point of being considered 'max' or maximum

When it comes to girls I see bare head
Many women are attracted to me and seek me out

Like it's a no hoods or hats ting.
My success with women is similar to a situation where a 'no hats or hoods' policy is in place, making it easier for desirable individuals to stand out and attract attention
