Listen… yo
We trying to find somebody
Look in my eyes…
…your neck?
I'll strangle you to death with it
I'm a terrorist, who won't speak to police intelligence
Blow up the whole scene…

…nickname for my trigger is a send button
You finna get the message when a nigga press send
I fuck your bitch to sleep, she's…
…circles around em, call it 720
Finna be some type of disaster when I fire that blocka
Light up the room when I clap but I ain't…
…fact that my shoes are Margielas, I think is makin' them more jealous
Try to rob me, you got the wrong fella, you gon' end up…

…state of California
Standing waiting round the corner
That pig you trying to wife up, she fed up with your boring flow
She's the sorta hoe…
…greatest strength as a curb to your progress
And the chance is if you pander you could firm up your pockets
To be perfectly honest
I…
…him to a croc'
And how sweet is it even the Englishmen will watch
As I run up on Big Ben and start cleaning out his clock
So…

…with a bullet
Yeah, I'm next to the best, you can call me Little Crooked
Paper chaser, I run for the dough
Rob y'all, run in your do…
…it, call it 720
Finna be some type of disaster when I fire
That block'll light up the room when I clap but I ain't buyin' no clapper
Like…
…fact that my shoes are Margielas, I think is makin' them more jealous
Try to rob me, you got the wrong fella, you gon' end up another…

…attention, hear me now or hear me never,
Glue your little eyes to the diagram,
See the plywood, the nails, the glue? You work…
…pliers,
now dammit, oh this will never do!
You have to want the castle, Head Up, shoulders back!
Be the materials, know your limits…
…it again. Stop sulking, I'm the example, for real, Watch.
Try it again. I'm bout to make it easy for you yall, just Watch.
You can kick…

Theories of evolution got you losing your shine
You're choosing a ?? of God's wrath to fill your glass
Add it all up but y'all still…
…souls
Emulsions flow, I can't control what I'm feeling
Blow up shows, clench mics and put a hole through the ceiling
We raise a fist for the…
…try to give sight under the dim light of midnight
You can bet it sucks getting fucked by that bitch life
It's must that drips off the…

…them speakin' on the snydy
I am higher paranoid, back up, boy don't wanna try it
That's alright, I don't mind
I want the number one…
…it rained, it leaked through the ceilin'
And to keep the carpet from soakin'
We throwed a boat beneath it, and the heat it went
We…
…you would f up the decks
Spit a little 16 and then pull up the set
I said, give me a second just to muster my breath
And you can…

…body, what a shocker
What I'm putting to your T hawks, your DJ can get it later
Mask up with metal on the arm like Vega
I…
…a street fighter, who wanna dance with the goat?
You'll get knocked out "perfect," with my hands at your throat
Sure you can try to…
…and Yang
(Brrrrr), throw you up like Kolin when I choose to bang
Watch me, you know that I'm the man
Walk in, turn your whole top…

…your life bought up
And my eyes on the prize, and never fall off the straight and I roll
When you slip, hollow tips…
…ceiling is ending, my ending is finished
These women keep grinning, to swim in my linen
I'm tilling my bidness, the bidness I'm…
…wash my car, gotta shine my buck
Gotta change my oil, cause the road is tough
Keep my eyes on the road, and don't slow up
[Hook - 2x]…

…another y'all motherfuckers turn and crack
It seem like just yesterday, a young nigga stepped up to the plate and
Learn to…
…play eight to the Penn, cut your lights off right now
Mean what I say and I say what I mean, nigga like me don't play…
…shine my buck
Gotta change my oil, cause the road is tough
Keep my eyes on the road, and don't slow up
[Chorus: x2]…

…your life bought up
And my eyes on the prize, and never fall off the straight and I roll
When you slip, hollow tips…
…ceiling is ending, my ending is finished
These women keep grinning, to swim in my linen
I'm tilling my bidness, the bidness I'm…
…wash my car, gotta shine my buck
Gotta change my oil, cause the road is tough
Keep my eyes on the road, and don't slow up
[Hook - 2x]…

…of us, on a different vibration?
I remember mom told me, like, something used to watch her
When she was a little girl. She swore it was a monster
She slept with the light on
Kept the…
…family and friends
And pray to god with all your heart it doesn't happen again
Are you really just an energy that needs to be seen?
Are you the…
…feeling
Sometimes it'd stand in the floor, sometimes in the ceiling
Sometimes it'd just watch and I could feel its presence
The…

…very same reason we fought
So close to giving up on life, I wanted to quit
Like why keep going if they don't know you exist?
But the…
…revenge
I want the niggas to see me thrive
And live my dreams and watch me change the world
And one day realize that they can do…
…know I've fucked up but now that's all in the past
'Cause everything could be gone in a flash
So watch me pave the…

…saints are elected
So I don't rely less on Your sovereignty than my methods
I long for the day to lay my eyes on Your…
Lest I be corrected by Your purifying fire's grilling
It's a wonderful feeling to lift them up to the ceiling
And get in touch with the…
…never turned my back on the world to seek your face
'Cause this path is not an easy one to try to travel in
At times them fiery darts…

Oh no pretty boy stalactite eyes when I 'm
surprised flights flying haystacks itchy
in the night playing rubbing hosting your…
I'll learn to
take the pressure off ya I'll be with you
shortly give up give in let go step up
step in give in step on let on light…
…on la la la na na na na try not to screw
your nose up at the idea of cold stones
and the rush of wet water watcha gonna say…
