Rietti Ambition
[Verse 1: Rietti]
Spring ninety nine, in nursery
Able is age three, in Burberry
Young tots juggle rocks in the mud and muck
Girls pickup buttercups, skip and double dutch
As a kid it's exhilarating but sucks when the fun stops
I couldn't wait to chase pigeons, put bugs in my lunchbox
But when Mrs Joseph puts index to lips we stand stiller
If she gazes away, I'll be swapping an album sticker
RIETTI, STOP REMINISCING, YOU NEED TO GO SCOUT A JOB
I KNOW YOU'RE MISSING THE ZITS AND PIMPLES WHEN IT WAS SIMPLE BUT SHUT YOUR GOB
What? Go to Uni, get credits? That's not what I'm meant to
Don't want an average Joe job, no bartended
No child mentor, carpenter, car painter, guitar mender
I'm entertaining Mars with my art-censor
You're own mouth, gimme a house in the middle of nowhere
So there I can get on with my rap projects
I want cheddar and dough, but don't wanna deliver it
I'd rather make it through a show, man consider it!
Desperate for a deal, but CBA for the whole ordeal
Or to deal with rejects, respect it I'm being real
I'm wheezing for airtime but spaced out like an astronaught
But nah sir! Copy the sheeple, coz that's the norm
Are you the big baaad wolf, or the sheep or the shepherd?
Mini me was the black sheep, now I leap, I'm a leopard
So check it-
[Chorus: Rietti]
So don't you rest in your quest in achieving your ambition
Plan it good spaceboy, good luck in your man mission
You may be a teenie star but you'll show that you can glisten
Plan it good spaceboy, good luck in your man mission
So don't you rest in your quest in achieving your ambition
Plan it good spaceboy, good luck in your man mission
You may be a teenie star but you'll show that you can glisten
Plan it good spaceboy, good luck in your man mission
[Verse 2: Rietti]
Either you live in a dream, or your living the dream
I'm the latter, in a damn bubble, hidden it seems
Cut off society's cloth but I'm ripping the seams
I don't get it, why do I have to stick to the schemes?
Whats the point in conforming to status quo standards?
Do you honestly wanna be robotic and branded?
Do you have ambition but they steal your pride like dessert bandits?
Claiming "sky's the limit”, but is it? Come on, how can it!
Be when Armstrong landed Appollo in sixty-nine, at that time
ONE SMALL STEP FOR A MAN, ONE GIANT LEAP FOR MANKIND
And I'm not chatting ‘bout some ballet dancer, dude look it
Up there footage of his footprints up online are you mad blind?
So I say, shoot for the stars but aim steady for it
Because it won't be cool if you ain't ready for it
And if your rocket slips, grab a heavier grip
Coz when you reach your peak well then confetti will drip!
[Chorus: Rietti]
So don't you rest in your quest in achieving your ambition
Plan it good spaceboy, good luck in your man mission
You may be a teenie star but you'll show that you can glisten
Plan it good spaceboy, good luck in your man mission
So don't you rest in your quest in achieving your ambition
Plan it good spaceboy, good luck in your man mission
You may be a teenie star but you'll show that you can glisten
Plan it good spaceboy, good luck in your man mission
[Bridge: Rietti]
It's the chika chika…. Mister insecure
He be spilling his heart out through the ink he draws
But when events occur and it rents him sore
He be spilling his heart out through the ink he draws
It's the, chika chika…. Mister insecure
He be spilling his heart out through the ink he draws
But when events occur and it rents him sore
He be spilling his heart out through the ink he draws
It's the-
[Outro: Rietti]
Yo! Our end is nigh'...
The key thing is, you gotta just follow those ambitions...
Before you turn back into soil…
It's what dying people's regrets are...
So, believe in yourself…
And JUST DO IT…
Don't rest man!
