on Up in the Woodlands (2018)

HOOK: JANAKA
She say she know a place up in woodlands
Where the wind blows slow and noodles good man
Ya she knows thats my whole life
Noodles in the breeze, paradise

Damn bright day outside
SMRT thats my ride
Train doors open hop inside
Take me to paradise

VERSE 1: LAOMEI
Ya im livin and im lovin up my city ya
When it rains, ya you know its such a pity ya
Sun kissed skin when im eating with my people
Ya theres nothing in the world that is ever more peaceful cuz
I grab a glass come on by
Auntie fill me up, cuz we just livin life
Like whatchu want 炒粿条? whatchu want 很多面条?
皮肤白，我不要很多辣椒 like
All i rap about is my life at the stalls
Where i go airplane mode, not taking any calls
Please dont hit me up
Please dont ring my phone
When im at the stalls w my people im in my zone
Ya this life is rich, im a broke boi
Theres nothing better than the smell of the steam and smoke boi
Wether im with my guys or my gals
Ya you know we havin good times, we the best of pals like

HOOK:
She say she know a place up in woodlands
Where the wind blows slow and noodles good man
Ya she knows thats my whole life
Noodles in the breeze, paradise

Damn bright day outside
SMRT thats my ride
Train doors open hop inside

VERSE 2: LAOMEI
She say she gonnna take me somehwere that i like
Where the breeze blows slow and the clouds roll white
Where the branches hang low and the lights shine at night
I dont know why but im super easy to excite
I wish life was as simple as all of this
Eatin 3 meals a day, just a 3 dollar dish
If im feeling big might get a 5 dollar fish
辣椒螃蟹 when im crabby, that the stuff i miss
Shoutout to the old life that i was livin
Someday i'll be back when im in the business killin
But for now i dream of all of it from the homeland
Laowai no more, until im a grown man
Concerts at the hawker stalls, i'll be the show man
Missing home from home makes life go slow man
Please just take me back, yeah, i'll wait for you
The journey is hard when im so far away from you

HOOK:
She say she know a place up in woodlands
Where the wind blows slow and noodles good man
Ya she knows thats my whole life
Noodles in the breeze, paradise

Damn bright day outside
SMRT thats my ride
Train doors open hop inside
Take me to paradise
