Rei - Four Seasons
Intro
He mahi rangatira, te whakakitenga, kia ora ai te iwi.
Nō reira, ko wai te rangatira kei te tū mai nei?
Arā, ko Rei, takitū ki te kōrero! Karawhiua!
Verse 1
This beat make me wanna beat off
Might get you drunk with this liquor flow
‘Bout to blow this whole motherfuckin’ scene off
And get you high on the spiritual
Not to brag but g it’s easy how I been on
Still getting off from her head to toe
I’m out of body out of mind when I spit it bro
You’d think I’m a god if you ever really listened bro for realla though
I’m done working for a back up
So tell the fakes to go and back their back up and pack a pack up
And leave
It for the strong to pick the slack up
And me
I quit the bitching chitter chat and stand up
Believe
I got this in the bag like Santa
The beat
The rap and the track I manage
You see
I’m using all this hate to my advantage
I’m a chief
Bitch can’t you see my fucking feathers?
I’m from the South city
Of a north island
In the middle of the ocean
We don’t talk about it
I can see they all doubted
They yelling from the back while I’m just foregrounding
From the land of the long cloud tryna find my place to stand, keep my thoughts grounded
These fella’s couldn’t see me so I had to cross the sea yah
I’m the one they doubted they should not have written me off yeah
Understand? Understood.
Overlooked, underbooked
But that’s the shit I feed off all year round boy I do this four seasons
Chorus
All year round all all
All year round all all
All year round boy I do this four seasons seasons

Now the whole tribe at the four seasons
All year round all all
All year round all all
All year round boy I do this four seasons seasons
All year round all all
All year round all all
Now the whole tribe at the four seasons yeah
Verse 2
Chorus
I pray I pray
That if I stray I stray
I won't forget my roots no no no
If i Do what's wrong it’s in the right way right way
You know it’s been bills bills bills and the rents due
If you writing me messages I pray you press send too
That’s one thing one thing that I'll never ever ever do
Is leave that difference ‘tween what I said and what I meant to
We live in a World of noise and distractions
A planet of spectators man I’m tryna bring action
Cuz Imma find my place to stand and get traction
Cuz While the Seasons come and seasons go this chief in me is free to grow oh oh

Rei - These Hands
Verse 1
These hands weren't made for wiping no tables
They were made for wiping your tears
These hands weren’t made to work for no labels
Independant to the teeth like a chief maan
I just had to put that on the table
You can take it or leave like kapeesh
Shaking in your seats while I stay still
Me I sound cold boy they just sound nasal yeah
These hands are for the youth fam the rangatahi the rangatahi
I’m Sir Eddy how I climb till there’s no one above me, it’s just the sunny
You’re too busy on the gram boy shutterbuggy man shut your muggy
Make me wanna bounce like a buggin’ bunny
I just wanna make tracks your just for the money yeah
Chorus (Amber Maya)
These hands these hands were built to build not build to destroy
These hands these hands weren’t made to take just made to give boy
So boss man top man, soon I will be long gone from this joint
(Rei)
So if it ever looks like I’m struggling
Better know I’ll be up again yeah
Verse 2
These hands weren’t made for holding no phone lines
More to hold my girl close like
Less it’s calling home time then I’m going O time
Calls to the 4 from the 09
These hands weren’t made to shake with no fake ones
All the shit they talk is clogging up my taste buds
Made for chasing goals not to chase funds
All these part times for the money I replace them yeah
All this fuckin time in for barely above minimum
That’s why I’m OT with these songs keep singing ‘em
And I keep on yelling chief till I find a better synonym
Till I’m earning dough nuts with all of the cinnamon
Chorus (Amber Maya)
Bridge
Better know
If it ever looks like I’m looks like I’m
Just know
Just know I’ll be up again
Better know
I was so down oh so down thinking fuck it then
Just give me some time fam

These hands
Weren't made for nothing else
These hands
But to do what they came to do
These hands
Weren’t made for nothing else
These hands

Despite the fact that I’ve been getting my game down pat

Chief of the rap game

Tell me what the hell is free time

Ive been staying on my beeline
To prove I deserve this shit
Bruv I even built this beat like
Just to come and Murder it
While these fellas sounding feline
I can hear them purring shit
Ohh I done came a long way from singing in the choir
A shy teen A school boy cueing up this fire
if you talkin rude boy then I may seem quiet
Really thats not shyness I just save my thoughts for the mic bish ahh
Chorus
Ask me why I keep talking this chiefness
Guess im tired of your hollow speeches
Never been one just to sit on the bleachers
So now im on your speakers so genius yay
I'm making money while you spending it
Spend it all spend it all
I got a girl while you chasing chicks
Shit get em all get em all
Ignoring all the fakes and negatives
Let em fall let em fall
getting on to some better things
Time is my only nemesis hey
Verse 2
This shit is so good it make you angry
Like shit i should of thought of that but you didn't bro that makes me happy
Like How funny would that be
And they can try but no one can do what I can see
Rap and the track that clean?
all your beats sound like fancy I swear
I think your boyfriend wish he was me
And your girl wish she with me
Never been wishy washy
I'll be the one to dish what I eat
By my own hands I'll risk it for me
Like I been eating some chilli
cuz I got the Fire in my belly ooogh

Whenever one of them chief beats gets free to flow
