about
I’m reluctant to promote my music right now because of news I’ve just received regarding a dear member of my family. Someone who was very much like my grandfather growing up. I won’t go into too much detail as I try not to shed light on my personal life, but I will say I’m happy that our stories don’t end here. That being said, I dedicate this record to Mosese Uiniseni Toki and his legacy, which is his family. Our bond is more than just our last name, but since a name is all we have to identify ourselves as in this life, rest assured, I’ll make sure the name lives on forever. T O K I .
I had typed out my usual in-depth description concerning the record and updates on what’s to come, but because of the circumstances, I’ll leave it at that. Thank you all for the support, per the norm. BLESS, ‘til next time.
lyrics
“Glad I Came”
by Sione Toki
1st Verse
Back back
This ain’t a act
I took the shine off ‘em,
now they tryin’a get it back
I ain’t lackin’,
Hit, SMAASH
I gotta knack
They keep on askin’
“John, why you do ‘em like that?”
Tell me why my verse ain’t worth 5 racks
Tell me why I’m up, even when I’m sidetracked
Tell me why she hurt when I don’t wanna wife that
Tell me why umm.. I got it like that
Pre-Chorus
No matter what they say
I still remain the same
I know that I’m late,
but aren’t you glad that I-
1st Chorus
Came
Aren’t you glad that I-
Came
Aren’t you glad that I-
Hol’ up, what you gotta say
Out here talkin’ a lot ‘bout risk you don’t take
Run n’ Gun all day, no ball play
World champ attitude like Gervonta
2nd Verse
It’s only my name in the credits
Gained weight, still/steal run it like Bettis
I only see the legends goin’ where I’m headed
Ain’t never asked for help so I never feel indebted
I’m a one-man gang, I do it all
Get up out the way, sound the alarm
My fire burnin’ hotter than Australia
Make her wanna turn the room to WrestleMania
Pre-Chorus
No matter how things changed
I know you still feel the same
Show no shame in your claim,
Aren’t you glad that I-
2nd Chorus
Came
Aren’t you glad that I-
Came
Aren’t you glad that I-
Pull over, I need you to show me
Sum’n nice, ain’t that what you tol’ me
Take me high without the xan or codeine
Don’t smoke, don’t drink, you already know me
Breakdown
I know I make my life sound good
Honestly I don’t live it the way that I should
I make mistakes, it’s only in my DNA
Before I say too much, let me say..
All this overtime and I still don't need a brake
Issa stake, boy don't mistake it for a piece o' cake
This is harder than it looks,
look a little harder, you might see just what it took-
lil’ work got ‘em shook
I got big moves, big dreams that I wanna make
come true,
come true while I'm still awake
They don't wanna see you gettin' to the pay
They don't wanna see you gettin’ anywhere any way
