We don't race the same, I don't run inside no painted lane Plus ya'll pace is strange, ya'll need to stop and you sprint Run when it's sunny and hide if it change to rain I wouldn't be half the Ali that I am If I slowed myself up and tried competing with these people, fam I've every bit as unconcerned as they are unprepared Market flooded, needless to say I wasn't scared Let's all drop the same day, I don't fucking care Put listening stations in the store and let the public hear Better yet, let's have an in-store performance Make it oranges to oranges, me dwarfin' your endurance After that we'll shoot the shit with our supporters And see how many more discs of yours the indie stores order See you already know I out-rap 'em On the low, we out-work, out-think, and out-class them And I promise if you take me home, I'll sing you a song, never leave me alone Said come on baby, throw me a bone, I'll sing you a song, never leave me alone And I promise if you take me home, I'll sing you a song, never leave me alone Said come on baby, throw me a bone, I'll sing you a song, never leave me alone Nobody's doing this thing exactly like we do I mean they do it, they just ain't doing it exactly like us, you know what I'm saying? Sucker-ass motherfucker My personal pedigree's so bona fide, 'Cause a man of my stature ain't grown overnight The undisputed king of where poor folks reside Because every time I speak there'll be hope vocalized in you Sit and bitch with them chickens about "it isn't fair" The sound system ain't shit, but I was crystal clear We first-name based with soundmen, we bring 'em beer Plus I tipped 'em fifty last semester when the clique was here Listen here, I ain't going give you all the secrets Just these few examples help me illustrate my pretense Our strength is unrelated to your weakness 'Cause you'll never be a worthy pool of peers to be competed with I sing my shit with Son House and Syl Johnson And always lose, I done lost face too But I'm sporting they shoes, so let me remind you And them little kicks you're trying to fit, We outgrew them shits in high school And I promise if you take me home, I'll sing you a song, never leave me alone Said come on baby, throw me a bone, I'll sing you a song, never leave me alone And I promise if you take me home, I'll sing you a song, never leave me alone Said come on baby, throw me a bone, I'll sing you a song, never leave me alone I don't think I'm arrogant, man, I think just I'm, you know I dos what the fuck I does, man, and it's just. You can kiss my ass, all I care It's of foremost importance, There is none like unto the Brother Al This motherfucker regardless, and stop all the nonsense You see me lounging, call Rhymesayer's office, I've officially lost it They say my reputation precedes me I don't know the meaning of off-season, I ain't taking it easy Ain't taking a day off, never had a off night Never been laid off, I live on the job site It all pays off, though, when I squint through the spotlight And see your lips a'moving to the true shit that I write And we going be all right, every night of my life is my night 'Cause I view the future like it's hindsight I ain't waiting or patiently persevering I see greatness in the person in the mirror very clearly And that's why I take this seriously Baby, come near to me and truly, truly hear me And I promise if you take me home, I'll sing you a song, never leave me alone Said come on baby, throw me a bone, I'll sing you a song, never leave me alone And I promise if you take me home, I'll sing you a song, never leave me alone Said come on baby, throw me a bone, I'll sing you a song, never leave me alone
