[Hook] And I promise if you take me home Ill sing you a song, never leave me alone Said cmon baby throw me a bone Ill sing you a song, never leave me alone And I promise if you take me home Ill sing you a song, never leave me alone Said cmon baby throw me a bone Ill sing you a song, never leave you alone [Interlude] Imma tell you something about me Thats my favourite subject, I dont know whether you picked up on that yet or not [Verse 1] I never said I had a business mind I just dont believe that quitting time exists, aint no finish line to this You got to give me mine, I really shine, my given time is this Live and die by the grind driven by the fist Where do you place my name if I never played your game We dont race the same, I dont run inside no painted lane Plus yall pacin strange, yall either stop or you sprint Run when its sunny and hide if it change to rain I wouldnt be half the Ali that I am If I slowed myself up and tried competing with these people fam Im every bit as unconcerned as they are unprepared Market flooded, needless to say I wasnt scared Lets all drop they same day, I dont fuckin care Put listening stations in the store and let the public hear Better yet, lets have an instore performance Make it oranges to oranges, me dwarfing your endurance After that well shoot the shit with our supporters And see how many more discs of yours the indie stores order Shit you already knew I out rap em On the low we out work, out think, and out class em [Hook] [Interlude] Nobodys doing this thing exactly like we do They do it, they just aint doing it like us, you know what Im sayin Sucker ass mother fuckers [Verse 2] My personal pedigrees so bona fide Cause a man of my stature aint born overnight The undisputed king of where poor folks reside Because every time I speak it be hope vocalized And you sit and bitch with your chickens about it isnt fair The sound system aint shit but I was crystal clear We first name basis, sound men we give em beer Plus I tipped em 50 last semester when the clique was here Listen here, I aint gonna give you all my secrets Just these few examples help me illustrate my pretense Our strength is unrelated to your weakness Cause youll never be a worthy pool of peers to be competed with I see my shit with Son House and Syl Johnson And always loose, I done lost face too but Im sporting their shoes So let me remind you, them little kicks you trying to fit We outgrew them shits in high school man [Hook] I dont think Im arrogant man, I think I just You know, I dos what the fuck I does man if thats just.. Kiss my ass for all I care [Verse 3] Its of foremost importance there is none like unto the brother Out this motherfucker regardless So stop all the nonsense You see me lounging call Rhymesayers office Ive officially lost it They say my reputation precedes me I dont know the meaning of offseason, I aint taking it easy Aint taking a day off, never had an offnight Never been laid off, I live on the job site It all pays off though when I squint in the spotlight And see your lips are moving to the true shit that I write And we gon be alright, every night of my life Its my night cause I view the future like its hindsight I aint waiting, Im patiently persevering I see greatness in the person in the mirror very clearly And thats why I take this seriously Baby come near to me and truly, truly hear me [Hook]
