The Chase - Illy, Olivier Daysoul

Ayo, I’m putting the pedal to metal

Might as well cut the breaks

Cause we don’t stop

And we don’t wait until its too late

Ayo, I’m putting the pedal to metal

Red line for the chase

Full tilt, we hit the red line for the chase

Welcome to the chase that’s life man

What you can hold up in your left and your right hand

And it could change overnight with the right plan

With little more than a macbook and a micstand, look where I took it

And I don’t tail coats, nor suits and ties

And I don’t ride coattails, bye to the routine, I’m

Buckled up for a beautiful, if at times suitable, for vagabond dude type life

Don’t view it as failure if I miss it

I just figure I proved that that way gets turfed

In the process of elimination gotta keep proving wrongs till the right one works

So we’re persevering, polishing the tracks til it hurts to hear em

Bout to embark on the journey of an era

So its only right ima build us a ship worth steering, say it with me

Ayo, I’m putting the pedal to metal

Might as well cut the breaks

Cause we don’t stop

And we don’t wait until its too late

Ayo, I’m putting the pedal to metal

Red line for the chase

Full tilt, we hit the red line for the chase

Screw the rules if they mess with the tune of my message

Whats expected can’t touch what you’re doing if its destined

Do the hard yards, step by footstep

Cause with opportunity comes effort

Its more than a debate on whose is the greatest

Credits ue to all the true imitators

I followed in their footsteps, now I’m blazing

A new trail for the future, till fruits of my labour

Are ripe for the tasting, forever be chasing

Success, its for those who despite condemnation

Kept going, and failures forsaken

For those who didn’t know how close they were when they gave in

Stay patient, but don’t hesitate

Cause everything comes to those who hustle while they wait

So let em kick back, ima overtake their place

Ima chase it until it ain’t a chase, but for now I’m saying

Ayo, I’m putting the pedal to metal

Might as well cut the breaks

Cause we don’t stop

And we don’t wait until its too late

Ayo, I’m putting the pedal to metal

Red line for the chase

Full tilt, we hit the red line for the chase

I make a promise to you mama

If I don’t end up a lawyer, swear I’ll still be a rich motherfucker

One way or another

But I don’t need all the worlds money in my life to love it, I’m gonna

Ride for the come up, rise till I lay down

Shine till the suns up, rhyme till I break ground

Lights blurred, no safety belt

I’m on the chase hard out man, success ain’t gonna make itself

And I ain’t gonna wake when I’m old

And regret that I woke out of a dream, just to chase the gold

Nah ima hold tight

On this rollercoaster of a ride called life, and I am

Prepared for the worst, but expecting the best

You can ride alongside or get left for dead

Repping A U S man, Melbourne in the place

Since we finish where we start yo, welcome to the chase

Ayo, I’m putting the pedal to metal

Might as well cut the breaks

Cause we don’t stop

And we don’t wait until its too late

Ayo, I’m putting the pedal to metal

Red line for the chase

Full tilt, we hit the red line for the chase
