STRAIGHT RHYMEZ 2 Lyrics – Aitch

STRAIGHT RHYMEZ 2 Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
Vibing to the beat, getting ready to go in.

[Verse]
Aitch kicks things off by saying if he’s not in Manchester (M-Town), he’s probably flying somewhere else, doing shows and hyping up other crowds. He’s not new to this anymore—he sees himself as a seasoned pro now. People might’ve forgotten how good he is with lyrics, but he reminds them he’s been hitting the charts and never stopped writing. He hasn’t sold out either—he’s just selling his rhymes, not his soul.

Then he brags a bit about his fancy watch, packed with diamonds, joking that he can “smell the time” because it’s so flashy. He says if someone’s making a top five list of UK rappers and leaves him out, they clearly don’t know what they’re talking about—and he’s about to prove it.

He claims he’s the only one doing things completely his own way, and he doesn’t care what anyone’s family thinks about him. He’s proud of being able to collaborate with major names like Hollowman (Giggs) and also perform in huge stadiums like the Etihad with big artists like Coldplay. That kind of versatility is rare, and he’s proud of it.

He keeps going, saying he tells other rappers straight-up that they can’t compete with him, and in the same week, he managed to raise a massive amount of money for charity. He’s not just all talk either—he says he speaks honestly and doesn’t pretend to be someone he’s not, which is why he sees himself as one of the last real ones left in the rap game.

He throws in a few playful, fast-paced rhyming lines using made-up words that sound slick and stylish, showing off his flow and creativity. Then he says that while other guys are fake and full of hate, he’s staying focused and moving forward, leaving all the snakes behind.

He flexes a bit more, listing off luxury cars like Maybach, Porsche, and Range Rover, hinting that even when money’s tight in the world, he’s still living large. He doesn’t even want to start talking about how much he spent on his house. If he ever throws shots at someone, it’s not for clout—it’s because he’s genuinely angry, not chasing attention.

He takes it back to his teenage years, saying he was already hustling back then, flipping things and staying ahead. There’s a clever line about Tems and her song “Wait For You,” playing on words with his plug (dealer). He says he always speaks real stuff and doesn’t hold back or water anything down. He brushes off other people’s opinions, telling them their two cents don’t matter.

Aitch says he’s always represented Manchester and stayed true to who he is. He refers to himself as a “little Scally,” a slang term for a street-smart kid. If it’s business up North, he gets his fair share. He throws a jab at the music industry, saying it’s become too polished and commercialized, and he’s one of the few left from Manchester still rapping with his authentic accent.

Then he switches gears, saying he’s coming for his rivals unpredictably, like picking them off at random. He’s handling his enemies in a calm, smart way—”killing them with kindness.” He even laughs about seeing a so-called gangster throwing a tantrum. He’s still in touch with his roots, surrounded by loyal people, and warns not to underestimate him just because he’s good-looking.

He says he’s been in the game for a while, and that’s why his success shows—even on his wrist, with a shining watch like a lantern. He toasts to the past seven summers and hopes for seven more, saying he can make hit songs or lyrically destroy other rappers. He jokes about being respectful if he hooks up with someone’s wife but still calls himself “daddy for the night,” adding his typical cheeky style.

Toward the end, Aitch starts reflecting on different choices he could make. He wonders whether to focus on raw rapping or commercial radio, whether to keep a low profile on dates or go public, whether to be with someone quiet or wild. He debates spending more money or saving it, chilling in a house or using it as an investment, and whether to let someone slide or take action against them.

He finishes strong, saying he’s always moving—on a plane, rolling dice, always sharp with his rap game. His rhymes hit immediately, and he wants people to speak respectfully about him. Since 2018, he feels like he’s brought new energy to the scene. From Manchester to the rest of the world—Europe, America, even Zante—he’s been on stage with huge names like Ed Sheeran and Ashanti, constantly leveling up and brushing aside the competition without a second thought.
