Where Ya Been
(专辑: Bring It Back - 2012)
[Verse 1
Illy:] Ma, I
guess I
took the
summer Why? I
was buzzing, didn't wanna stop Flying seaplanes above the
yacht 3
ways, on the
beach, smoke signs to the
southern cross These day's just another notch on the
belt Hell nah, leave the
holidays for the
others to I
toured so much the
flight path's stuck on loop A
guy stopped me, asked what'd I
been upto, dude I've been everywhere man, where the
fuck were you? Sucks to come off rude, well nah it doesn't Cause it's fucking true, my luggage frayed, but ain't underused The
shit's legendary, and new tracks ready Full of beats, rhymes and melodies, my peeps like they better be dope I
asked 'em last time to remember me Shit, I
hope they got a
damn fine memory It's time to come back, gotta pick it up, slack For a
minute or three, and the
fans gonna scream "where ya been" [Hook Illy:] Where ya been, haven't seen ya face in a
minute Been looking, nowhere to be seen Man, where ya been, checking for your new songs daily The
wait gets worse by the
week I
wondered where ya been, I
wondered where ya been Hear it all the
time man Like it was my theme Man I'm back, you'd be crazy if you thought I'd leave So relax, put your mind at ease, yo Pez where ya been [Verse 2
Pez:] Man, in Vietnam and Milan Off to Amsterdam, then Japan, then to France Every second day was on a
plane on a
holiday Went around the
world and saw alot of shit along the
way "word?" nah, in truth I've just been in my house Spending most my time here, sitting round, chilling out Stressing on the
album, I
just want to get it finished now Cause I
been feeling like I'm missing out, shit Been sick, but I
don't need nobody's sympathy Cause my health helped me look at life a
little differently Instead of going out, partying like every day I
just gotta stay home and try to meditate But it's all good, finally I'm on board And now I'm in it for the
long haul, yeah I
can't wait to stand with Illy up on stage At a
sold out show and hear the
whole crowd go "where ya been" [Hook Pez:] Where ya been, haven't seen ya face in a
minute Been looking, nowhere to be seen Man, where ya been, checking for your new songs daily The
wait gets worse by the
week I
wondered where ya been, I
wondered where ya been Hear it all the
time man Like it was my theme Man I'm back, you'd be crazy if you thought I'd leave So relax, put your mind at ease, yo Illy where ya been [Verse 3
Illy:] Man I
been on tour, wishing I
was home "sure" Nah, if anything I'm living for the
shows more Looking back to 04, I
was so poor Fuck eating off rap, I
couldn't buy my own fork [Verse 4
Pez:] It's no sure thing, but we don't care Always, hopeful, it would lead somewhere, and now Nearly every mc seems to be known In 3
years, can't believe how the
scene's grown [Verse 5
Illy:] When rappers can afford to leave home And teens got aussie hip-hop on their ringtone Even old folks are down with the
lingo It's a
trip, I
been everywhere everyone's loving this shit [Verse 6
Pez:] Who'd of thought it would be something this big Hopefully this is just the
beginning "yeah, I
hope so P" What can you say man, it feels like a
dream If you don't know what we mean, then fuck, where ya been? [Hook Pez/Illy:] Where ya been, haven't seen ya face in a
minute Been looking, nowhere to be seen Man, where ya been, checking for your new songs daily The
wait gets worse by the
week I
wondered where ya been, I
wondered where ya been Hear it all the
time man Like it was my theme Man I'm back, you'd be crazy if you thought I'd leave So relax, put your mind at ease, where ya been
