Lyrics
Hook
Writing my name in graffiti on the wall/writing poetry in graffiti on the wall/
Writing my name in grafiti on the wall/
Writing rap songs in graffiti on the wall/
Verse 1
As a kid u would catch me drawing in my notebook/taggin up the pages with phrases and hooks/writing bubbles letters and my name with a marker/trying to get my style and my tag looking sharper/
As a teen I was blessed to meet a hiphop legend/ an MC, bboy and writer named raven/he taught me to hold a brick and master control/to paint the perfect lines, shapes, fill ins and shadows/running with the writers 12 cans in my backpack/I love to spray my name on a mural with a fatcap/on 53rd in the back of micky Ds/hyde park was the spot where we use to write graffiti/on trains, walls, billboards and more/then they let us paint on the side of all the stores/
From Murals, Burners and tags we throw it up/if u a writer, say something, spray something get up/
Hook repeats
Bridge
Spray something (get up), Say something (get up)/x4
If you got a message spray it on the wall/
All my writers build with me, spray it on the wall/if u got a message spray it on the wall/trying to go all city, sray it on the wall/
