Pick Up The Phone
[Verse 1: Ghetts]
Sounds of the...Sounds of the...
(Pick up the phone)
Man owe me money, I've been ringing this yute for the last month
I don't care if it's half one in the morning
My man really needs to (Pick up the phone)
"Hey fam when you get this message, holla at me cause' you're in the violation zone still"
(Pick up the phone)
Told my gyal that it's nothing
Phone ringing, but I don't wanna answer a number I don't know
Now she thinks manna cheating, all because I won't (Pick up the phone)
"Babes, who is that? Why is someone calling you at this time at night?"
Different day, same mobile, I was gonna ring this girl
But something in my brain said "don't dial"
Instead, I rung Spyro
"Yo family where you deh? I'm on the high road, I beg a man send somethin' new"
"I ain't made in a tune in a minute, y'know g"
"That's cool, send somethin' from the old file"
When it comes to flows, I know styles
When it comes to dough, I know piles
When it comes to road, I know miles
When it comes to hoes, I've profiled
If I like her she gets the lyca (caution)
Cause' dem gyal dere will line man up like Delilah
Every time I answer my phone, it's money on the other end these days
I got the Midas touch, it's a minor
I just spoke to my stylist Keira
"Yo G, there's bare packages here, let me know where you want me to send them"
"Line man up in designer"
(Pick up the phone)
Every time I phone my mum, I think
"What's the point of havin' a mobile if me and my siblings can't get through to you?
Lord have mercy!"
(Pick up the phone)
[Skit: Ghetts' Mum]

Jah know
(Pick up the phone)
Somebody can't help me with da phone yah?
Cause me never see dem sumn yah from mi born!

[Verse 2: Ghetts]
Years I've had the same number
Man I got exes runnin' back like say the food weighed under
Good tings, university book tings, hood tings
Hide the work in the bush tings
Community links like DJ Thunder
Just came from mum's, caught one or two joke when I heard her (Pick up the phone)
Mum was just speaking Patois
Then the phone rang and I heard her (Switch up the tone)
Yeah, mum speaks three languages
Jamaican, Cockney and real well spoken
And there's other mums just like my mum
It all depends who phones them
[Chorus: President T]
Why you calling late?
Tryin' cause problems, please don't think
Before you call, please don't drink
But it don't mean I will even (Pick up the phone)
Nah, nah, not worth the time
If you a mountain, not worth the climb
Ring 'till the morning, are you challenging mine?
I won't (pick up the phone)
'Low it, 'low it, it's kinda bait
How many missed calls? It's over eight
Looked in my inbox, it's overweight
Maybe I should just (Pick up the phone)

[Verse 3: President T]
They don't wanna answer, they don't wanna answer
Wait 'till I catch man
Shout out to my cats, never gonna scratch man
Top two selected, match man
Who was on the phone?
They never knew I was on the throne
Said that he's gaining, must be a stone
Can't get an answer, can't get an answer
"Are you taking whites?"
Can't be a human (Why, why?)
Are you takin' rights?
I left my bally at home, but I had tights
Come to my gates, all you're gonna see is spite
Pick up the phone, I'ma get civil
Two options, talk to me proper or shrivel
Kill off killy
[Chorus: President T]
Why you calling late?
Tryin' cause problems, please don't think
Before you call, please don't drink
But it don't mean I will even (Pick up the phone)
Nah, nah, not worth the time
If you a mountain, not worth the climb
Ring 'till the morning, are you challenging mine?
I won't (pick up the phone)
'Llow it, 'llow it, it's kinda bait
How many missed calls? It's over eight
Looked in my inbox, it's overweight
Maybe I should just (Pick up the phone)

[Outro: President T]
Must be the mandem, need to record
Look for a text, but it ain't stored
Phone's on silent, could've been ignored...
(Pick up the phone)
