[00:39.65] |
Cause they live for some moments, and I live for a livin' |
[00:42.44] |
But this for the girls that barely let me get to first base |
[00:45.58] |
On some ground ball shit |
[00:47.03] |

So now I'm talkin' to the reaper to reverse death |
[01:10.10] |
So I can kick it with my granddad, take him for a ride |

Show him I made somethin' out myself and not just tried |
[01:15.88] |
Show him the house I bought the fam, let him tour inside |
[01:18.62] |
No matter how far ahead I get, I always feel behind |
[01:21.41] |
In my mind, but fuck tryin' and not doin' |
[01:25.40] |
Cause not doin' is somethin' a nigga not doin' |
[01:28.84] |
I said fuck tryin' and not doin' |
[01:30.89] |
Cause not doin' is somethin' a nigga not doin' |
[01:33.75] |
I grew up to Em, B.I.G., and Pac bitch, and got ruined |
[01:36.86] |
So until I got the same crib B.I.G. had in that Juicy vid |
[01:40.34] |
I can't motherfuckin' stop movin' |
[01:42.49] |
Go against me, you won't stop losin' |
[01:44.48] |
From the city where every month is May- |
[01:46.37] |
Day at home, spray your dome |
[01:47.97] |
Niggas get sprayed up like AK was cologne for a paycheck or loan |
[01:51.01] |
Yeah I know that shit ain't fair |
[01:53.07] |
They say that Detroit ain't got a chance, we ain't even got a mayor |
[01:56.00] |
You write your name with a Sharpie, I write mine in stone |
[01:58.26] |

The city's my Metropolis, feel it, it's metabolic |
[02:12.96] |
And I'm over niggas sayin' they're the hottest niggas |
[02:15.85] |
Then run to the hottest niggas just to stay hot |
[02:18.04] |
I'm one of the hottest because I flame drop |
[02:20.24] |
Drop fire, and not because I'm name droppin' |
[02:23.12] |
Hall of Fame droppin' |
[02:24.42] |
And I ain't takin' shit from nobody unless they're OG's |
[02:27.91] |
Cause that ain't the way of an OG |
[02:30.01] |
So I GO collect more G's, every dollar |
[02:32.70] |
Never changed though, I'm just the new version of old me |
[02:35.64] |
Forever hot headed but never got cold feet |
[02:38.53] |

[02:59.42] |
Miscellaneous minds are never explainin' their minds |
[03:02.12] |
Devilish grin for my alias aliens to respond |
[03:04.96] |
Peddlin' sin, thinkin' maybe when you get old you realize |
[03:07.65] |

[03:14.94] |
So if you have a relapse, just relax and pop in my disc |
[03:17.87] |
Don't pop me no fucking pill, I'mma a pop you and give you this |
[03:20.81] |
Tell Flex to drop a bomb on this shit |
[03:22.47] |
So many bombs, ring the alarm like Vietnam in this shit |
[03:25.27] |
So many bombs, make Farrakhan think Saddam in this bitch |
[03:28.16] |

[03:37.27] |
I'm Makaveli's offspring, I'm the king of New York |
[03:40.26] |
King of the Coast, one hand, I juggle them both |
[03:43.00] |
The juggernaut's all in your jugular, you take me for jokes |
[03:45.78] |
Live in the basement, church pews and funeral faces |
[03:48.68] |
Cartier bracelets for my women friends I'm in Vegas |
[03:51.37] |

[03:54.20] |
If Phil Jackson came back, still no coachin' me |
[03:56.69] |
I'm uncoachable, I'm unsociable |
[03:58.98] |
Fuck y'all cubs, fuck y'all pictures, your Instagram can gobble these nuts |
[04:03.46] |
Gobble dick up 'til you hiccup, my big homie Kurupt |
[04:06.04] |
This the same flow that put the rap game on a crutch |
[04:11.42] |
I've seen niggas transform like villain Decepticons |
[04:14.34] |
Mollies'll prolly turn these niggas to fuckin' Lindsay Lohan |
[04:17.42] |
A bunch of rich ass white girls lookin' for parties |

James Bonding with none of you niggas, climbing 100 mil in front of me |
[04:45.30] |

[04:48.38] |
And if you're in it, better run for Pete's sake |
[04:51.27] |

What is competition? I'm tryna raise the bar high |
[05:33.39] |
Who tryna jump and get it? You better off tryna skydive |
[05:36.23] |
Out the exit window of 5 G5's with 5 grand |
[05:39.08] |
With your granddad as the pilot he drunk as fuck tryna land |
[05:41.58] |
With the hand full of arthritis and popping prosthetic leg |
[05:44.51] |
Bumpin Pac in the cockpit so the shit that pops in his head |
[05:47.25] |
Is an option of violence, someone heard the stewardess said |
[05:50.04] |

[05:59.55] |
You could check my name on the books |
[06:01.75] |
I Earth, Wind, and Fire'd the verse, then rained on the hook |
[06:04.39] |
The legend of Dorothy Flowers proclaimed from the roof |
[06:07.27] |
The tale of magnificent king who came from the nooks |
[06:10.11] |
Of the wild magnolia, mother of many soldiers |
[06:13.14] |
We live by every single word she ever told us |
[06:15.93] |
Watch over your shoulders |
[06:17.46] |
And keep a tin of beans for when the weather turns the coldest |
[06:20.26] |
The Lord is our shepherd, so our cup runneth over |
[06:22.75] |
Put your trust in the Lord but tether your Chevy Nova |
[06:25.63] |
I'm spittin' this shit for closure |
[06:27.17] |
And God is my witness, so you could get it from Hova |
[06:29.87] |
For all you magicians that's fidgeting with the cobra |
[06:32.76] |
I'm silent as a rock, 'cause I came from a rock |
[06:35.31] |
That's why I came with a rock, then signed my name on the Roc |
[06:38.19] |
Draw a line around some Earth, then put my name on the plot |
[06:41.03] |
Cause I endured a lot of pain for everything that I got |
[06:43.77] |
The eyelashes like umbrellas when it rains from the heart |
[06:46.47] |
And the tissue is like an angel kissin you in the dark |
[06:49.36] |
You go from blind sight to hindsight, passion of the Christ |
[06:52.61] |
Right, to baskin' in the limelight, it take time to get your mind right |
[06:55.54] |
