I'm on Solid Ground, Nothing can knock me down oh no

I know for sure

I feel it all around since you came around I know

I'm not alone

On Solid Ground

I'm on Solid Ground


[Verse: Braidz]

My mother said I was a handful

Growing up so she sent me too my Dads, you

See I came from a broken home

Shutout by my Dad but his door was always open though

So I was smoking cones from a young age

Passive smoke be blown into your sons face

At 11 I was a genius by high school I was dumb ay

Gained some punk mates and we'd pump trains on lunch break

Then I realised I can't spray, Was alright at tagging

But when it came to the mad pieces I realised I could not paint

I'd had a taste and hip-hop was in the veins

Started making Beats no Apple or Doc Dre

But they were not great I'd start 'em off dope

Hardly would notice I was overdoing 'em 'til it got saved

I'd lost days to this hip-hop shit

So I found a passion for the rap and that I did not quit...


[Hook: DJ Corbett]

And I'm on Solid Ground, Nothing can knock me down oh no

I know for sure

I feel it all around since you came around I know

I'm not alone

On Solid Ground

I'm on Solid Ground


[Verse: Braidz]

But man I wish that I could peddle back

And do my first battle while I'm on this level man

Tether back like that NBN we never had

They said I had the rapping down but asked me where the prescence at

To the first day I'd get on track

Drop the accent make good impressions everlast

Peddle back to the first day I'd ever tagged

I still love a dope piece but think that tags are messy man

Step on back to the time I had my head detached

Flying off the radar like Malaysian Airlines when they land

And put my head on back

Then come out stepping to whole damn teams like I keep passing up their center man

And to think, I used to feel a little hesitant

'Cause my whole life I've lived with this depression shit

Know I ain't religious but I feel this gift is heaven sent

Paint pictures with my words like they were written on an etch-a-sketch


[Hook: DJ Corbett]

And I'm on Solid Ground, Nothing can knock me down oh no

I know for sure

I feel it all around since you came around I know

I'm not alone


[Bridge: Braidz]

I know I'd been away for a minute there

To think I almost quit the game wasn't thinking clear

Because the scene mix with Braidz like Avengers when

Cap America & Iron Man are on their more Civil days

My visions changed I'mma see this through

Never again I won't feel defeated dude

Now I've got my shine back and I'm beaming through

My love was always for Hip-Hop not some scene of crews...


[Hook: DJ Corbett]

And I'm on Solid Ground, Nothing can knock me down oh no

I know for sure

I feel it all around since you came around I know

I'm not alone
