[Intro]
I love Australia
How 'bout you (How ’bout you?)
I love being Australian
Don't act like you know me
[Chorus: Matty B]
The MC with presents never resents the consequences
He presents the lyrics with no pretentious accents (No pretentious accents)
Yeah
The MC with presents never resents the consequences
He presents the lyrics with no prеtentious accents (No pretеntious accents)
Here we go
[Verse 1: Matty B]
If you're Australian, speak out with no false pretense
No two-mindedness, no need to sit on the fence (Fence, nah)
You’re sounding like someone who's not even worth ten cents
It's pure Australian styles in every sentence
Never sounded American, only for linguistic repent (Ah ah)
'Cause my style's a spool true blue totally relentless
Leaving pretentious MC's defenseless
'Cause I had no knowledge of self
If you're Australian, you know that type of knowledge is wealth
Being true to yourself is no huge task
It’s no big ask
Being told to remove your fake mask
You’ve hidden behind all of your life
You grab the mic and step to me, you're in a whole lot of strife
Kept in reality
You just became a battle fatality
With your half-American split personality
Split personality
[Chorus: Matty B]
The MC with presents never resents the consequences
He presents the lyrics with no pretentious accents
No pretentious accents (No way, want to tell ’em, mate?)
Yeah
The MC with presents never resents the consequences
He presents the lyrics with no pretentious accents
No pretentious accents (Sound [?] recording)
[Verse 2: Matty B]
To you American MC's: I'm not tryna put you down
I just don't understand Aussies tryna copy ya sound
It’s not all young Australians ignoring they heritage
Grabbing the mic and sounding like they were American
I'm not respecting 'em
And any Aussie with a fake accent, I'll be rejecting 'em (Get out of here)
They should not let other cultures be affecting 'em
The new Aussie sound will be the best in this millenium (Number one)
Yeah, the new Australia's hip hop nation
Causing a whole world to stand back in amazement
So much talent spilling out of Oz, it's like water displacement
'Cause the dream, we're chasing it
And our true accents, we'll never be replacing it
Never
[Interlude: (Hunter?), Matty B]
Aye man, Matty, you know what to say, do
You know exactly what you're talking about, y'know?
Well, yourself, man
It's not that hard
[Chorus: Matty B]
The MC with presents never resents the consequences
He presents the lyrics with no pretentious accents
No pretentious accents, mate (Oh yeah, oh yeah)
Yeah
The MC with presents never resents the consequences
He presents the lyrics with no pretentious accents
No pretentious accents (Havin' a barbie')
[Verse 3: Matty B]
So it's simple, no scientific concept (Easy)
Home is where my heart and my mic's style's kept (Yep)
Red like a field of wheat in the wheat belt (Belt)
It's obvious, all these Aussie sentiments that I felt (You feel?)
And then we deal with all of these problems
With which I've dealt
'Cause life's not always smooth as felt or silk
The land of milk and honey as this country was once known
As watch our reefs drilled for oil, it's multinationalism that's growing
I can't believe the things they do (Not right)
Environmental devastation in the Ningaloo
So, think about it
Yeah, think about it
And maybe tell your whole crew
[Turnable sample]
Aussie flavor is highly contagious
