|
The underdogs 'bout to go for the win |
|
No I.D. on the track, let the story begin |
|
Man I will prevail when |
|
I got cousins in jail |
|
The IRS send me mail, but how the fuck can |
|
I fail When this is greatness |
|
The label pushing for sales |
|
Enough to drag a nigga through hell but you can tell this is greatness |
|
If Stevie |
|
Wonder read braille |
|
Michael Jackson made thrill and |
|
Malcolm excelled |
|
Like getting 5 mics or double |
|
X-L When you see them bright light from that bubble |
|
S-L Think greatness, yea this is the theme song |
|
More than a game, but |
|
I put my whole team on |
|
My voice is the shoulder for my people to lean on |
|
The beat is the pillow for my niggas to dream on |
|
Fight like a soldier, boy, get your marine on |
|
Lord grant me the strength to battle my demons |
|
Who do we run to? |
|
Who do we scream on? |
|
Keep bagging up that shit you know the customers fiend on |
|
The greatness [Bridge:] |
|
When I hear your voice |
|
When I see your face [Verse 2: Like] |
|
I'm looking for, inspiration, something to write |
|
Something to make me smile like the love of my life |
|
It's out there somewhere, and she gon' come to light ' |
|
Til then, |
|
I got this jump-off coming tonight |
|
This industry is like a war with no gun or a knife |
|
Homie you chasing fame but it come with a price |
|
Call my pops on his cell for some humble advice |
|
Told my cousin locked in jail from a troublesome life |
|
To keep your head up guy, and pray to the man up high |
|
Providing strength to get us by |
|
Dreams of buying mansions that sit up high |
|
Lord knows that living broke shit ain't fly |
|
The devil on my shoulders tryna break our stride |
|
Circumstances come but the great survive |
|
When shit get down and whips get impounded |
|
Still you can't take away our drive, it's the greatness [Hook:] |
|
When I hear your voice |
|
When I see your face |
|
You know I can't help it |
|
But I feel something great |
|
No matter what they say |
|
You're on to something great [Verse 3: BeYoung] |
|
Every first of the month, they try to break us down |
|
Repo man even try to take your smile |
|
Skies is the limit so they can't take the clouds |
|
Whole nation black, guess we all |
|
Raiders now |
|
And they try to play us out like we never [?] |
|
Proud to be a nigga, heard |
|
James say it loud |
|
That's greatness, for the faith that they can't shake |
|
Great rhymes got me floating on great lakes |
|
Great game got me lamping with a great date |
|
Thick as sirloin, only play for great stakes |
|
Uh, have mercy for that man's style |
|
Clean nigga couldn't wipe me down with a shamwow |
|
No other plans now, we gotta get it |
|
Great on everything we touch, that's for the critics |
|
Meet the whole team plush, moving out the digits |
|
Rather count the paper, |
|
I can do without the business |
|
Always seen the goal, now it's time to do the mission |
|
Going down in history, who you think is with it [Hook] |
