Verse 1

I'm feeling the hunger deep within, the fire burning

Desires yearning to earn dollars splurging

Working hard, been scarred inside, I'm hurting

First in line, it's my turn, tides are turning

Mindful person, serpents who try to burn him

Get popped like the cherry inside a virgin

Mystified by the way that God is working

Live for today, tomorrow's not for certain

Got your girlfriend dancing, her body twerking

I'm a pimp, IMAX pictures like cinemas

Expand treacherous, politicking like senators

Go against one, you're going against ten of us

Rhymes venomous, the soul of men

Fall victim to the wrath of my poison pen

The circumference of the blast hit your closest kin

And anyone next to you, check one, two

Chorus

It's the beginning of my reign, they speaking my name

Whenever they check the microphone, feeding my flame

I've been staying in the background, it's time to act now

Laying the smack down, so hand over that crown

I shed blood, sweat, tears

Buried my peers, struggled for years

It made a monster

I hear 'em calling, that's why I'm stalking

To dominate and conquer

Verse 2

Ayo, I'm trying to make dough, massaging the batter

In corporate America, climbing the ladder

Try to stop uno, the nine's gonna splatter

Your brains over the wall, call it mind over matter

Leaving emcees with bleeding gashes

So far ahead I can't be seen with glasses

Strategic tactics, step aside or get stepped on

Slept on like a Tempur-Pedic mattress

They don't recognize skill 'til you've won a Grammy

They overlook me cause they don't understand me

So to all the haters, I have to thank 'em

While you're busy talking shit, I'm stacking Franklins

You're not in the class I rank in, I'll shank 'em

And have you laying flat like your ass was planking

Catching wreck, demand respect

When the X comes through, check one, two

Chorus

It's the beginning of my reign, they speaking my name

Whenever they check the microphone, feeding my flame

I've been staying in the background, it's time to act now

Laying the smack down, so hand over that crown

I shed blood, sweat, tears

Buried my peers, struggled for years

It made a monster

I hear 'em calling, that's why I'm stalking

To dominate and conquer

Verse 3

I keep it real, that's why I stay glorious on top

You sold out like inventory out of stock

Armani emporium, got your shorty on my jock

Have her shower in vodka as I'm pouring out Ciroc

They see us pop bottles so our foes don't like us

My crew's in the club like motorcyclists

People gather around, see what all the hype is

Follow my every word like a courtroom typist

The flow is dope like grams on a scale

Well thought out plan and I'd be damned if I fail

Haters impale my voodoo doll, casting a spell

But I'm a nutcase like a pistachio shell

Crazy, you don't phase me, there ain't no stopping the

God MC fulfilling the prophecy

Element of surprise, the dream that you least expect comes true

Mic check one, two, I'm up

Chorus

It's the beginning of my reign, they speaking my name

Whenever they check the microphone, feeding my flame

I've been staying in the background, it's time to act now

Laying the smack down, so hand over that crown

I shed blood, sweat, tears

Buried my peers, struggled for years

It made a monster

I hear 'em calling, that's why I'm stalking

To dominate and conquer
