about
Litebulb wrote an earlier version of this song called "Round 3: I Wurk Hard" with different lyrics and beat patterns, but DJ Spinn wanted to bring it back with a new feel. Bulb wrote the lyrics capturing the most influential moments in his early upbringing into the Footwork artist he is today, summarizing nearly 15 years of work and community building into two verses and a chorus. Listen to Litebulb's story as he takes you on a Journey on how he did it all, living at 160 beats per minute

My ghost feared by most, one flick of the wrist or the leg put niggas to bed
Like wonder bread my adversaries toast
Corridor, kitchen floors, that shit built me for war
I been border to border, making a name and taking my feet across water
(You think)
You better than me, can't be sober, knew I was goated before I got older
From the go gotta look over shoulder, pay attention this city get colder
I built establishments off works no accidents, you claiming that you goated, but it's past tense
Putting in work at 18, back in lab at one two seventeen,
Prolly caught me on channel 19, workin, cooking these bums for certain
My shit like dope in a pot, I'm whippin the works, you gone need a top
Cause that's where the team headed, I won't get the credit but know I'm cemented
Sayin she wanna get wit a member, you gone forget but she remember
I been killing the shit for ten Decembers, a decade
If they forget, put on your favorite video, rewind and press play
I been this lit, since two thousand and six, carving my name in this shit
Livin my
Livin my, living my, living my life at 160
Can't name a soul who fucking wit me,
From Wala to Bgz to fifth city
Livin my, living my, living my life at 160
Can't name a soul who fucking wit me,
From Wala to Bgz to fifth city
I been did a 9 to 5 I'm focused on 5 to 9
Asking me how I did it, shit all it took was time
Putting my team in position to win like I'm Kobe and Shaq and we down by 5
I see that I gotta remind, that boy just touchin his prime,
Been calling me Bulb for years I figured it's time to shine, know that I'm one of a kind
Playin with Bulb in the circle, its gone be the end of yo time
Yeah, I was out on tour, still sleepin on floors, I guess I just wanted it more
I made a way for the team, them E's you can't ignore
I been on top of the game like coasters
Play wit Bulb in the circle ain't good for your health on my soul
Put yo ass on a poster, or meme, hitting works we done bust through the seams
On Miah, we pushin them dreams, puttin on shorties and feeding the scene
I'm the prof that Footwork ain't dead, they stuck at the light
I'm pushing the pedal instead, I been lit the city like ComEd
From Wala to Bgz to fifth city, can't name a soul who fucking wit me
If Footwork the therapy for the city, I'm livin my life at 160
And bringing the whole city wit me
Livin my, living my, living my life at 160
Can't name a soul who fucking wit me,
From Wala to Bgz to fifth city
Livin my, living my, living my life at 160
Can't name a soul who fucking wit me,
From Wala to Bgz to fifth city
