Lyrics
I'm going to tell you a little story today about a Young man whose life was completely Destroyed
Horns blowing out window like Timber
Heart of a lion I'm Simba
Pack a Meg Ryan and an iron in my fender
Back against the wall I stood tall in the winter
34 on that diesel I posted it at the center
I'm still down with the same ****
Damo let's get this change ****
Marc you my heart you know I never change ****
100 I took losses with bosses that would've Tossed us
So much work if I ran off I would've been in Coffins
The haze got me coughing
It's no talking when the Nina's barking
It's no walking we park exotic
Bitches hear my voice and then they move Erotic
Baby only eat my dick she on a strict diet
And when Omar died I did no crying
Fuck him
Any **** who crossed me lost me
Any bitch who lost me salty my swag godly
Moves through traffic with a small package
My final four like it's March Madness
I slam doors you never touch Damnit
How did I manage to be outstanding
Hard work and some dedication
Loyalty and no hating
No handouts no no rules breaking
Check it the view is breathtaking from the Mezzanine
I graduated off of the stoop on to better thing
Used my head went to the leged
Just spread my wings and levitated into the Greatness
And that's on everything
I hear they rap jingles
And you can tell most MCs only think of the Cheese
Whenever they craft singles
Please pardon the soliloquy
I see you mimic me but can't seem to connect Like calligraphy
They know the records for excessive bars
All over the record, stretching from the Preface to the epilogue
Peep the monologues fly riding the iron Horse
Designing rhyming in time and how bottom Lines come off
Could paint a picture like Salvador Dali
Artistic as Van Gogh **** with they pants low
Deep in the Monte Carlo cheef weed in the Fonto
Royale to gif and a curse like Donnie Darko
Lyricists I keep it vivid through the fog though
Gotta appreciate it
It's Masterpiece Theater
We're just gonna stop
I don't know
Blue Bags
The Empire
The Empire
The Empire
