about

The first track released off Lozen's album 𝘎𝘰𝘢𝘭 𝘋𝘪𝘨𝘨𝘦𝘳 — out now on Soul Path Records — is the hard-hitting “Rumors”, calling out certain people in the industry and their politics for being downright skeezy, albeit cryptically. The song does everything short of naming names because diss-tracks ain’t really her style. You see, Lozen is more about building bridges than burning them. The tone set is full-on battle-rap mode — a scene that once propelled her career on Canada’s West Coast that she consciously chose to step away from — still the message is clear.

lyrics

Intro:

Oh oh oh
I’m sick of talking
Oh oh oh
I’m sick of talking
Oh oh oh
I’m sick of talking
Oh oh oh
Matter fact, I’m sick of talking

Chorus (2 x repeat):

Rumors
I hear them spreading rumors
You know what they say
Rumors
Don’t believe rumors

Verse 1:

People talk about my situation
Miscommunication, accusations
Story keep on changing through word filtration
It’s funny how the telephone rule the nation
Lost touch Lost one upon that ghost bus
Touring cost me so much More that you could know, trust
Wrong place, wrong time I should have known better
Rumor follow me like a black cloud
Under pressure

Let me tell you ‘bout my confrontation
Swift inauguration, exploitation
Finger pointing scapegoat blame persuasion
Rock in a hard place left forsaken
To the wolves I was thrown
Preach, take me to church
I held my tongue for everyone
Who tried to tarnish my worth
So let’s get down to the nitty gritty
Brass tacks
I’m here to set the record straight
Lay it on wax

Chorus (2 x repeat):

Rumors
I hear them spreading rumors
You know what they say
Rumors
Don’t believe rumors

Verse 2:

I wrote this track about my observation
Gross dramatization, manipulation
Snowball getting bigger, association
Now strangers want to talk about my reputation
Hypocrites, politics, sell their soul for a piece
Of the pie, word is bond I ain’t a crook or a thief
Karma police on these streets
Real talk in the hood
It ain’t all good

Bridge:

Go ahead and make assumptions
Act like you know but ask no questions
Go ahead and make assumptions
Act like you know but ask no questions

The past in the past and there’s no turning back
So let bygones be bygones and so on I rap

Chorus (2 x repeat):

Rumors
I hear them spreading rumors
