[Pre-Hook]
I create something from nothing
Though I'm underground, I aim for the top
Though I'm unknown, I become famous
Making it cross the sea and reach the UK
You understand?
I make noisy guys make noise well
Though I'm underrated, I impress them
They must nod their heads crossing their arms
[Hook]
I'm just going up, I'm filling beats
Fading away, enemies are disappearing
I’m hungry for money, me getting rich
I'm planting seeds, fruits are ripening
I'm just going up, I'm filling beats
Fading away, enemies are disappearing
I’m hungry for money, me getting rich
I'm planting seeds, fruits are ripening
[Verse 1]
Ushitora, Emishi, Tohoku
I'm Minor-U, grown uptown
Spreading my roots underground
Going across Eurasia
I stand out in a group
But I value unity
There's only one like me in the universe
I'm not the only one in the universe
I'm unique like my partner is
My selling point is the choice of words
I create things that only I can make
Then I throw them into the ocean of information
I'm going easily over even that rapper
When it comes to grime, I have an advantage
I'm gonna graduate this uni soon
My music will be played in the UK as well
[Pre-Hook]
I create something from nothing
Though I'm underground, I aim for the top
Though I'm unknown, I become famous
Making it cross the sea and reach the UK
You understand?
I make noisy guys make noise well
Though I'm underrated, I impress them
They must nod their heads crossing their arms
[Hook]
I'm just going up, I'm filling beats
Fading away, enemies are disappearing
I’m hungry for money, me getting rich
I'm planting seeds, fruits are ripening
I'm just going up, I'm filling beats
Fading away, enemies are disappearing
I’m hungry for money, me getting rich
I'm planting seeds, fruits are ripening
[Verse 2]
There's no destiny, I work myself
This is action to achive my dreams
I'm gonna earn yen, pounds & euros
In school days I enjoy the moratorium
Expressing all my roots & fruits
Impressing by the temperature & pressure
Through your ears, into your inside
I can do it better than guys around there
Going this way and that way, I go up
Looking backward, I go forward
Rising and falling, I rise finally
Even if it's unsalable, I make what I like
I defeat pagans willy-nilly with bars I shoot
I'm diffrent to you, I'm not you
I am what I am, Minor-U
[Pre-Hook]
I create something from nothing
Though I'm underground, I aim for the top
Though I'm unknown, I become famous
Making it cross the sea and reach the UK
You understand?
I make noisy guys make noise well
Though I'm underrated, I impress them
They must nod their heads crossing their arms
[Hook]
I'm just going up, I'm filling beats
Fading away, enemies are disappearing
I’m hungry for money, me getting rich
I'm planting seeds, fruits are ripening
I'm just going up, I'm filling beats
Fading away, enemies are disappearing
I’m hungry for money, me getting rich
I'm planting seeds, fruits are ripening
