LYRICS
Verse 1
No need for introduction, you hear & you know why/
Nose dive into an era where the beats are lo-fi/
I put my "face in a book" 'cuz my people are "profiled"/
We erased from the books and my people are told lies/
Sky's the limit? Go fly! Cali green? We go high/
I mean back in '05, already knew I'd grow wise/
But surprise, we grow thighs, double dose of broke lies/
'Til we dove in those sides of losin' hope it goes by/
I got Bam to my left and Eric on right/
Here to give a "New America" like Erykah Wright/
Try to take my "title?" never "will" to inherit the "rights"/
Yuh - Tacloban City's finest, put me on that 5 list/
Color out the lines 'cuz "I color" like ya iris/
Hunger in my eyes, this is everything that I risk/
Kill it with my tongue every time I spit a free/
But the work is never done and believe I'll never leave/
Hook
'Cuz I'm finally here, get your hands in the air/
Now the greatest is here, I'ma make this my year/
'Cuz I'm finally here, yeah I'm finally here/
Yeah I'm finally here, yeah I'm finally here/
Verse 2
If you call yourself a rapper, talk less, and take notes/
We slay "sheep," respect "GOATS," we pray, sleep, and next toke/
We take beats to flex throat, finesse steeze to bless those/
They say freeze! they test hope, we say peace, but stay woke!/
Leave you cats phased to the point I catch praise/
Rhymes turn to catchphrase 'til it starts to cascade/
Product of Mac Dre, Wu-Tang, and Kanye/
Break beats on beat tapes that break necks, we press play/
They say we from the slums where the heroes never won/
But my people always sung, brown faces to the suns/
Kill the satan wit my tongue, fuck the spinnin' from the stations, I'm rotating' 'round the sun/
The axis my mattress, I pass out and pass this, abstract to masses/
Last laugh no practice/
Back to back raps, Manila Noir, bar for bar, homie check the repertoire/
Ibarra with the bars, they sub-par while I set the bar!/
Hook
Yeee!!!!
Ericka Wright the real reason the mayong bulcan erupted BRUUHH!! 🌋🌋🌋🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
So dope ! It's your time
fire!
Ruby Ibarra dopeness homie
please continue making music, im so fucking sick of the mumble and money industry of the rap of nowadays, your music is curing this illness
The little girl killed this. The way she rapped that verse looks like she's been rocking a stage for a while already.
She's definitely dope and I can only imagine how much more skilled she's gonna get as she gets older! Her name is Alex Bruce! :)
I'll have to watch out for her in the future. I'd definitely be interested to hear her rap her own stuff if she's killing your verse like that
Thats my classmate haahha shes filipino
Agreed
Now that little girl just bloomed. Check her out. Its straight fire, man.
Her lyrics delivery conscious weaponry choices of her original cypha rhymes aaaand her insane sequences? Ruby Ibarra Is the hottest rapper I've found in the world since Dead Prez did Revolutionary Black Gangsta album. This is so next friggin level because it is completely new fresh ahead of it's time by like...come on your truth is ten to fifteen yrs ahead of time and folks will be making history tryna get production this dope. I ain't gassing the Queen she is the SH** she gold in platinum settings, she wild banana leaf stewed over a open fire tied with bamboo string smelling like heaven came off her grill of a mind made strong by tradition experiences hard won in pain pride humble conquest of the soul...etc etc. Please never stop making HIP HOP so FREEDOM FIGhters like me in the United snakes...have HOPE and a fly damntastical awesoooome sauce soundtrack to spice and flavor our lives in this brutal system u bring us ....pure joy and freedom. Thank you Ruby. Thank you from us rebels fighting torture in the states for Grass Roots organizing...thank u and peace, trust yooo struggle queeeen, ugat!!!

"Here" is the perfect first single from the Circa '91 album. The beat pipes along to Ruby's amazingly smooth yet intricate flow, highlighting the break-neck pivots and swivels that hold the listener's hear to every word. Likewise, Ruby blazes through every track on the album with self-defining introspection and an expansive examination of society, leading to revelatory discoveries about herself, her heritage, and the recognition of contrasting perceptions and enlightening perspectives of herself and of others in the world. Ruby does not let up for a minute, even when she is staking her claim to the G.O.A.T. status on the last track, "Yuh." Accompanied by stellar production, Ruby does not miss. As a concept album, Circa "91 is similar to Kanye's College Dropout.
(By the way, look how far Alex Bruce has come since she appeared as an 11 year-old in this video.)

Verse 1]
No need for introduction, you hear & you know why
Nose dive into an era where the beats are lo-fi
I put my face in a book ‘cause my people are profiled
We erased from the books and my people are told lies
Sky’s the limit? Go fly! Cali green? We go high
I mean back in ‘05, already knew I'd grow wise
But surprise, we grow thighs, double dose of broke lies
‘Til we dove in those sides of losin’ hope it goes by
I got Bam to my left and Eric on right
Here to give a new America like Erykah Wright
Try to take my title, never will to inherit the rights
Yuh, Tacloban City's finest, put me on that 5 list
Color out the lines ‘cause I color like ya iris
Hunger in my eyes, this is everything that I risk
Kill it with my tongue every time I spit a free
But the work is never done and believe I’ll never leave
[Chorus]
‘Cause I’m finally here, get your hands in the air
Now the greatest is here, I’ma make this my year
'Cause I’m finally here, yeah I’m finally here
Yeah I’m finally here, yeah I’m finally here
[Verse 2]
If you call yourself a rapper, talk less, and take notes
We slay sheep respect GOATS
We pray, sleep, and next toke
We take beats to flex throat
Finesse steeze to bless those
They say freeze! they test hope
We say peace, but stay woke!
Leave you cats phased to the point I catch praise
Rhymes turn to catchphrase ‘til it starts to cascade
Product of Mac Dre, Wu-Tang, and Kanye
Break beats on beat tapes that break necks
We press play
They say we from the slums where the heroes never won
But my people always sung, brown faces to the suns
Kill the satan wit my tongue, f*ck the spinnin’
From the stations, I’m rotating ‘round the sun
The axis my mattress
I pass out and pass this, abstract to masses
Last laugh no practice
Back to back raps, Manila Noir, bar for bar
Homie check the repertoire
Ibarra with the bars, they sub-par while I set the bar!
[Chorus]
‘Cause I’m finally here, get your hands in the air
Now the greatest is here, I’ma make this my year
'Cause I’m finally here, yeah I’m finally here
Yeah I’m finally here, yeah I’m finally here
