INTRO

(Let’s get one thing straight, I’m not Mr Shadow, Mr Shao dao or Mr Shade-ow I’m Mr ShaoDow, Mr ShaoDow, Mr ShaoDow)

HOOK


Introducing the one and only,
ShaoDow (That’s MR) ShaoDow (It’s MR) ShaoDow,
I’m never gonna stop so get to know me,
ShaoDow (That’s MR) ShaoDow (It’s MR) ShaoDow

VERSE ONE


Right from the start, see me moving smart,
All I could do to improve my art,
I refuse to be used, you confuse my path,
So don’t stand in my way cos you’ll feel my wrath
I’m a fool for art, to it’s call I dart,
I spend months on my rhymes it fuels my heart,
Don’t jump for the dime rep music hard,
See me becoming more stunning, I’m running through your guard,
It’s ShaoDow, now slow,
Crushing the mic as I flow from the soul,
Once held down on the ground now I’m proud of my sound,
And I found that I got the space to grow,
Don’t fret, got my aim set,
I’m a fighter on that you can bet,
Even when I, punch a punk,
I’m calm as a monk,
Hit sixteen bars and I’m still not drunk.

HOOK


Introducing the one and only,
ShaoDow (That’s MR) ShaoDow (It’s MR) ShaoDow,
I’m never gonna stop so get to know me,
ShaoDow (That’s MR) ShaoDow (It’s MR) ShaoDow

VERSE TWO


I know what I stand for, know who I am,
Though my troubles will double I know his part of his plan,
Setbacks making me grow as a man,
I’ve been given a vision I’m living life to it’s span,
Be who you are, quit acting shook,
I’m the king of the chorus, Captain Hook,
I make hits with a fist,
Quick with the kicks,
Spit with a lisp so you know who this is.

HOOK


Introducing the one and only,
ShaoDow (That’s MR) ShaoDow (It’s MR) ShaoDow,
I’m never gonna stop so get to know me,
ShaoDow (That’s MR) ShaoDow (It’s MR) ShaoDow

VERSE THREE


I’m not the same old same I refuse to pretend,
I’m the black sheep that escaped with the pen,
I fight for the right with the mic I contend,
For the times in my life I was tied to the fence,
Way back when, I hated myself,
Would’ve gave it all to be somebody else,
Being different was a terminal sin,
There I stood, though I couldn’t I would try to fit in,
Following the group, swallowing their soup,
Anything, jumping through the hollows in the hoop,
I realised life only gives one scoop,
And you’ll waste it trying to fit into the blind view,
I attack with the ink, this is rap from the brink,
Don’t give a crap what you think,
Keep fitting in, from the crowd I’m free,
It’s ShaoDow blud and I’m proud to be me.

*POINT OF INTEREST*

To this day people still get my name wrong. I’m going to force them to listen to this song until they get it right or go insane. Which ever comes first.

“King of the Chorus. Captain Hook” and “Hit sixteen bars and I’m still not drunk” are two of my favourite lines in this song
