Where Ya Been

[Verse 1: Illy] Ma, I guess I took the summer Why? I was buzzing, didn't wanna stop Flying seaplanes above the yacht 3 ways, on the beach, smoke signs to the southern cross These day's just another notch on the belt Hell nah, leave the holidays for the others to I toured so much the flight path's stuck on loop A guy stopped me, asked what'd I been upto, dude I've been everywhere man, where the fuck were you? Sucks to come off rude, well nah it doesn't Cause it's fucking true, my luggage frayed, but ain't underused The shit's legendary, and new tracks ready Full of beats, rhymes and melodies, my peeps like they better be dope I asked 'em last time to remember me Shit, I hope they got a damn fine memory It's time to come back, gotta pick it up, slack For a minute or three, and the fans gonna scream "where ya been" [Hook: Illy] Where ya been, haven't seen ya face in a minute Been looking, nowhere to be seen Man, where ya been, checking for your new songs daily The wait gets worse by the week I wondered where ya been, I wondered where ya been Hear it all the time man Like it was my theme Man I'm back, you'd be crazy if you thought I'd leave So relax, put your mind at ease, yo Pez where ya been [Verse 2: Pez] Man, in Vietnam and Milan Off to Amsterdam, then Japan, then to France Every second day was on a plane on a holiday Went around the world and saw alot of shit along the way "word?" nah, in truth I've just been in my house Spending most my time here, sitting round, chilling out Stressing on the album, I just want to get it finished now Cause I been feeling like I'm missing out, shit Been sick, but I don't need nobody's sympathy Cause my health helped me look at life a little differently Instead of going out, partying like every day I just gotta stay home and try to meditate But it's all good, finally I'm on board And now I'm in it for the long haul, yeah I can't wait to stand with Illy up on stage At a sold out show and hear the whole crowd go "where ya been" [Hook: Pez] Where ya been, haven't seen ya face in a minute Been looking, nowhere to be seen Man, where ya been, checking for your new songs daily The wait gets worse by the week I wondered where ya been, I wondered where ya been Hear it all the time man Like it was my theme Man I'm back, you'd be crazy if you thought I'd leave So relax, put your mind at ease, yo Illy where ya been [Verse 3: Illy & Pez] Man I been on tour, wishing I was home "sure" Nah, if anything I'm living for the shows more Looking back to 04, I was so poor Fuck eating off rap, I couldn't buy my own fork It's no sure thing, but we don't care Always, hopeful, it would lead somewhere, and now Nearly every mc seems to be known In 3 years, can't believe how the scene's grown When rappers can afford to leave home And teens got aussie hip-hop on their ringtone Even old folks are down with the lingo It's a trip, I've been everywhere, everyone's loving this shit Who'd of thunk it would be something this big Hopefully this is just the beginning "yeah, I hope so P" What can you say man, it feels like a dream If you don't know what we mean, then fuck, where ya been? [Hook: Illy & Pez] Where ya been, haven't seen ya face in a minute Been looking, nowhere to be seen Man, where ya been, checking for your new songs daily The wait gets worse by the week I wondered where ya been, I wondered where ya been Hear it all the time man Like it was my theme Man I'm back, you'd be crazy if you thought I'd leave So relax, put your mind at ease, where ya been
