[00:00.05] |
I put my heart and soul in this game, I'm feelin' drained |
[00:03.32] |
Unappreciated, unalleviated |
[00:05.86] |
Tired of comin' up short, fuck abbreviated |
[00:08.40] |
Want my whole name spelled out, my own pain spilled out |
[00:11.37] |
No pain, no gain, I blow brains, Cobain |
[00:14.05] |
Throw flames, Liu Kang, the coach ain't help out, so I call my own shots |
[00:18.20] |
I'm David Blaine, I'm breakin' out of my own box, you stay the same |
[00:21.96] |
But homie if you change, may you change for the better |
[00:24.78] |
Back when Martin King had a thing for Coretta |
[00:27.39] |
Wonder if she seen all the dreams he was dreamin' |
[00:30.27] |
Did she have a clue of all the schemes he was schemin' |
[00:32.87] |
Still loved him just enough to put up with the cheatin' |
[00:35.52] |
Months go by and only see him for a weekend |
[00:38.41] |
I say a prayer, hope my girl ain't leavin' |
[00:40.84] |
We all got angels, we all got demons |
[00:44.24] |
As you fall through the club |
[00:46.32] |
Bad bitches down to do all the above |
[00:48.95] |
Money comes fast so bein' hungry don't last |
[00:51.48] |
Till you look in the mirror and you saw who you was |
[00:54.67] |
Cole World, it couldn't be more clearer |
[00:57.09] |
The time is now, couldn't be more herer |
[00:59.80] |
My reign gonna last like 3-4 eras |
[01:02.25] |
Say hello to the real, I can be your hero |
[01:05.52] |
Hey, I'mma put us all on the map |
[01:07.90] |
Gone and I ain't lookin' back |
[01:09.91] |
I know they gone feel it like they tank on E |
[01:12.54] |
I promise baby, you can bet the bank on me |
[01:15.32] |
Cause can't nobody tell me what I ain't gonna be no more |
[01:18.63] |
You thinking I'mma fall, don't be so sure |
[01:21.80] |
I wish somebody made guidelines |
[01:24.73] |
On how to get up off the sidelines |
[01:26.73] |
Up in 1st class, laugh even though it's not funny |
[01:29.45] |
See a white man wonder how the fuck I got money |
[01:32.24] |
While he sit at coach, hate to see me walk past 'im |
[01:35.06] |
Young black pants sag, headphones blastin' |
[01:37.78] |
Know what he askin', "how did he manage?" |
[01:40.28] |
"With all the cards against him, he used them to his advantage!" |
[01:43.00] |
Slang we be speakin' probably soundin' like Spanish |
[01:45.61] |
Then I fuck they heads up when a nigga show manners |
[01:48.41] |
Some New York niggas thought it was funny callin' us 'Bama |
[01:51.11] |
Laughin' at the grammar cause they didn't understand us |
[01:53.80] |
Must've thought we slow, but little do they know |
[01:56.03] |
I came up in here to take advantage of that shit y'all take for granted |
[01:59.32] |
Opportunity that I would kill for |
[02:01.90] |
Lookin' at rappers like "what the fuck you got a deal for?!" |
[02:04.86] |
When I was assed out with my funds low |
[02:07.20] |
It's nice to know I had the whole world at my front door |
[02:10.45] |
Hey, I'mma put us all on the map |
[02:12.72] |
Gone and I ain't lookin' back |
[02:14.68] |
I know they gone feel it like they tank on E |
[02:17.33] |
I promise baby, you can bet the bank on me |
[02:19.94] |
Cause can't nobody tell me what I ain't gonna be no more |
[02:23.41] |
You thinking I'mma fall, don't be so sure |
[02:26.81] |
I wish somebody made guidelines |
[02:29.62] |
On how to get up off the sidelines |
[02:31.52] |
I made it to the rack, even though they tried to box me out |
[02:34.51] |
I got the key to the game, they tried to lock me out |
[02:37.07] |
But what they don't understand is this is all plan |
[02:39.70] |
It's a bigger picture and you can't photoshop me out |
[02:42.57] |
Some nigga ask me why Jay never shout me out |
[02:45.20] |
Like I'm supposed to give a fuck |
[02:46.51] |
Don't you know that I be out in France |
[02:48.27] |
Where the fans throw they hands like Pacquiao |
[02:50.55] |
Not cause my looks, cause my hooks could knock Rocky out |
[02:53.37] |
And my lines is designed from the heart |
[02:55.58] |
Young Simba been a lion from the start |
[02:57.71] |
Dumb nigga's, y'all been lyin from the start |
[02:59.77] |
My life's like a movie, truly |
[03:01.68] |
And these niggas is dyin' for the part |
[03:03.85] |
But, you'll never play me like LeBron vs. Jordan |
[03:06.59] |
Twenty years, wonder who they gone say was more important |
[03:09.39] |
Both changed the game, came through and made a lane |
[03:11.80] |
Who's to say that who's greater, all we know, they ain't the same |
[03:14.95] |
Hey, I'mma put us all on the map |
[03:17.60] |
Gone and I ain't lookin' back |
[03:19.39] |
I know they gone feel it like they tank on E |
[03:22.00] |
I promise baby, you can bet the bank on me |
[03:24.80] |
Cause can't nobody tell me what I ain't gonna be no more |
[03:28.07] |
You thinking I'mma fall, don't be so sure |
[03:31.59] |
I wish somebody made guidelines |
[03:34.42] |
On how to get up off the sidelines |
[03:37.99] |
