Lyrics
Instrumental Intro
Verse
Fresh off de press but dey’re pressing out plastic
Molded in a factory, stretching de elastic
Every lid on de block wants to look like de next lad
Wearing de same webs, inheriting de same dad
I’m slicing through de cellophane, breaking de conveyor
True liver bird, not a cheap bricklayer
Dey want a counterfeit version of de dialect I speak
But you can't forge de grime on de soles of de unique
Hook
Arrive in dis world as a masterwork design, la
Don't end up in de dirt as a cheap duplicate line, la
Chorus
I will not be duplicated, I will not be tamed
Every soul that tried to clone me walked away ashamed
I will not be duplicated, catch me at the edge
Carvin' out me own name on a different kind of ledge
I will not be duplicated, cut from rarer cloth
All the pressed and manufactured — I been burnin' them off
I will not be duplicated, singular by blood
Certified authentic comin' straight up from the mud
Instrumental
Verse
Chipping at de paint on a manufactured structure
Dey want a smooth finish, I’m a rough texture
Eating cheap scran while dey swallow all de media
I'm rewriting de pages of deir encyclopaedia
Mirror images cracking when dey look at my posture
Call me an imposter? Look at your own sponsor
Propah raw Liverpool, rattling de copper cage
Leaving genuine ink on an unwritten page
Hook
Arrive in dis world as a masterwork design, la
Don't end up in de dirt as a cheap duplicate line, la
Chorus
I will not be duplicated, I will not be tamed
Every soul that tried to clone me walked away ashamed
I will not be duplicated, catch me at the edge
Carvin' out me own name on a different kind of ledge
I will not be duplicated, cut from rarer cloth
All the pressed and manufactured — I been burnin' them off
I will not be duplicated, singular by blood
Certified authentic comin' straight up from the mud
Instrumental
Bassdrop
Bridge
Not a clone, not a drone, not a number on a slate
Busting through de turnstile, slamming down de gate
Authenticity dripping from de ceiling to de floor
Dey locked us in a box but we kicked down de door
Hook
Arrive in dis world as a masterwork design, la
Don't end up in de dirt as a cheap duplicate line, la
Chorus
I will not be duplicated, I will not be tamed
Every soul that tried to clone me walked away ashamed
I will not be duplicated, catch me at the edge
Carvin' out me own name on a different kind of ledge
I will not be duplicated, cut from rarer cloth
All the pressed and manufactured — I been burnin' them off
I will not be duplicated, singular by blood
Certified authentic comin' straight up from the mud
