[Verse 1]

I’m still courageous, don’t care if ya like it or know it

For fuck’s sake, don’t care if my rap goes viral like covid

Do this shit for creativity’s sake

Live through it everyday and don’t be dealin’ with fakes

I can live with mistakes, forgive myself instead of imprison with hate

I took the falls, I can live with the breaks

Envision the fate of emcees tryna spit in my face

Born in WA and still live in this place

Still livin’ with hate, and lift the right anthems off pages

And make political statements when I’m standing on stages

The system’s designed to contain us

Media prison tries to keep us locked in their cages

Still courageous, still dangerous

Still too smart and impatient to explain it to laymans

Still checkin’ green to stack paper

Still run my own show and reppin’ B Style Entertainment


[Chorus]

Still courageous, still feelin’ that beat

Still rap on a track, still dealin’ with beef

Still dangerous when I step in the booth

Still get in the mix when I’m reppin’ my crew

Still courageous, still represent Perth

Still expect respect when you step on my turf

Still courageous, still holdin’ it down

Still SBX and got mad love for my town

Still courageous


[Verse 2]

Quite happily take out my rap adversary

Callously a stoner wreaking havoc is Matty B

Fools get schooled at my rap academy

I kill emcees angrily so don’t try to battle me

I’ll try to break ya down gradually like torture

So fuck your metaphors and analogies

I’ll sort ya, ‘bout time you learned the lesson

I taught ya, ‘bout time you cut the crap with me

‘Cause my rap is a force to be reckoned with

Can ya handle me? Reckon you can handle yourself?

Steppin’ the Matt can be bad for ya health

Like a crack addict amassing some wealth

I’m just glad I could help a strategist implementing a plan

That was stealth and executed, inserted

Infiltrated your clan like an insurgent

You’re all washed up like detergent

Cut and hung out to dry like my shirt is

I’m just glad I could do you a service

I read the eulogy at your service

After drivin’ my sword right through the surface

Of all these half arsed pussy emcees that deserve it

The skills and training are furthered, I let it run it’s course

While you differed it [?] preferred it

Another killer track, I just served it

Indeed your feeling this shit the first time ya heard it

Matt and rhyme go together like a crime and a verdict

Word, kid, I think you heard that I’m still courageous


[Chorus]

Still courageous, still feelin’ that beat

Still rap on a track, still dealin’ with beef

Still dangerous when I step in the booth

Still get in the mix when I’m reppin’ my crew

Still courageous, still represent Perth

Still expect respect when you step on my turf

Still courageous, still holdin’ it down

Still SBX and got mad love for my town

Still courageous, still feelin’ that beat

Still rap on a track, still dealin’ with beef

Still dangerous when I step in the booth

Still get in the mix when I’m reppin’ my crew

Still courageous, still represent Perth

Still expect respect when you step on my turf

Still courageous, still holdin’ it down

Still SBX…
