Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I am British, I am Jamaican, I am American
I am what I am
From South London to New York
I did that
The eye patch, a unique look
Pirate-type stuff, you know?
I did that
I flipped being blind into a luxury brand
MC Ricky D to Slick Rick, icon, fashionista, storyteller
I did that
Sampled over 800 times, kid
I did that
Had cats staying in Clark Wallabees
I did that
When brothers was driving Benzes, I pushed them into Rolls-Royces
Posh behavior, I did that
I am the ruler, I represent the bottom and the top, none can stop, ya gots
Respectfully, I inspired many
That's right, I did that
Please, jewels dripping, gaudy rings
Yellow gold, platinum, rose gold
Custom pieces that represent heritage and royalty
Unapologetically, I did that
[Outro]
The Great Adventures of Slick Rick, aye, yo, creativity, I did that
The Ruler's Back, passionately, I did that
Behind Bars, gracefully, I did that
The Art of Storytelling, elegantly, I did that
The Poet and The Visionary
Victory
We did that
