Special thanks to the Euro ARCO project. The music video was shot in Malaga where all ARCO partners came together to talk about transferable skills. The purpose of Euro-Arco is to transfer and adapt innovative vocational education, training materials and methods and to develop the key competences of young people who are NEET, in particular, those defined as Transferable Skills, so that they are better able to maximise their potential in terms of social, cultural and economic inclusion.
This will be achieved through transnational collaboration between Wac Arts and Rinova in the UK, MuLab in Italy, Questao in Portugal, MetroLab in Spain, Hope for Children in Cyprus, and Kunstbedrijif Arnhem in the Netherlands.
lyrics
What's up world welcome to a new day
Got a flight to catch tomorrow, but I didn't pack my suitcase
Cause `i'm busy with being busy everyday
I even haven't seen my mama for days
I mean weeks, and that's cray-zy
I blame myself: 'G, you should be ashamed'
Yes, I am, but I'm trying to change
Especially now, cause I'm wise after the EY
It's the story of my life, you should know by now
I was made for the stage and I love the crowd
Pass the (cog)gac so I can pass it around
It's all good, I won't pass for the another round
I teach one, I was inspired by Ghandi
So I'll be the change, that I wanna be
Dear Government, you don't know what you do to me
Music is a weapon, word to my true MC's
And these youngsters see me as a leader
My rhymes are food, I proceed to feed them
Hiphop is culture, Hiphop is freedom
But jealous ones still envy, Don Cartagena
She's a slut now, but I won't leave her
I'll Rhytmatic Eternal King Supreme her
I'm a believer, I'm a dreamer
Like Common Sense, sometimes I wanna beat her
Ha... I need V.S.O.P.
My thoughts are in the galaxy with the fallen homies
'Life Story'
iTunes €7,99 support me
I go deep, I'm a control freak
Need to master my mix downs and that's a strong need
And I don't want to fall asleep
On a memory lane, so I'm digging into old beats
Life is temporary, you should embrace it
Be yourself cause everyone else is already taken
Some ask me: 'When you're gonna make it?'
Other ones are like: 'G., you fucking made it!'
Already made it when I picked up a pen
Gained money and fame, but I'm in it for the fans
In it for the love, in it for the fam
In it for the late night jams, yes I'm gifted man
I state my ancient phrases, peace son
Raised with Dre and Nate, Deez nuts
Hate is fake, I take real love
Can't complain, my name is Greek God
I'm always down to move, but I'm looking up
My purpose is to reach the sky, no matter what
The reason why I wanna rise to the top
I was raised in the gutter, but I was looking at the stars
Nelson Mandela:
'You must fight the battle for dignity and that's what we did. We put our foot down and insisted in being respected and we eventually succeeded in that. I was in the company of great man indeed. Some of them more qualified, more talented than I am. And to sit down with them, to exchange views, was one of the most revealing experiences I had.'
