🎤 “Legends in the Booth” – by MC Melts (Hook) Yo I came from the gutter, now I’m steppin’ on gold, From the southside struggle to the stories I told, Shout out 50, Em, Dre – they raised me bold, Hilltops on the deck when the nights got cold. Legends in my ears while I fought for the light, Now it’s my turn to burn – let’s ignite this mic! ⸻ (Verse 1) I was bumpin’ Get Rich while my world stayed broke, Writin’ bars on the bench, dreamin’ clouds of smoke, Eminem had the venom when I needed that fire, Now I’m meltin’ these beats, man, I spit with desire. In the lab like Dre with the chronic in hand, Mixin’ pain with the pen, got the heat on demand, Used to sleep with no hope, now I’m dreamin’ in schemes, Like I’m next in the booth with the Aftermath team. ⸻ (Hook) Yo I came from the gutter, now I’m steppin’ on gold, From the southside struggle to the stories I told, Shout out 50, Em, Dre – they raised me bold, Hilltops on the deck when the nights got cold. Legends in my ears while I fought for the light, Now it’s my turn to burn – let’s ignite this mic! ⸻ (Verse 2) I was ridin’ with the Hilltops, feelin’ that truth, “Cosby Sweater” in the headphones, young troubled youth. From Adelaide to the block where I learned how to spit, They gave me that Aussie pride and I ran with it quick. No gimmicks in my lane, just stories and scars, I’m the product of the pain, now I’m reachin’ for stars. With my dogs in the booth, and my name on the door, You can bet when I step that I’m reppin’ the core. ⸻ (Bridge) Salute to the kings that paved my lane, Gave a voice to a kid with a runaway brain. Now I rhyme like it’s war, with the soul of the street, And I’m bringin’ that heat that could melt concrete. ⸻ (Hook) Yo I came from the gutter, now I’m steppin’ on gold, From the southside struggle to the stories I told, Shout out 50, Em, Dre – they raised me bold, Hilltops on the deck when the nights got cold. Legends in my ears while I fought for the light, Now it’s my turn to burn – let’s ignite this mic!
