Dear Globe, I dedicate this ode to your earlobe
But I'm still bold - Despite the memories my years hold
The Fire Next Time - Rendering my fears cold
Obsolete - While I march into the beat
If walls could talk - they'll tell your tale's a disappointment
Till I blocked out the failures declaring I'm self-anointed
Can't wait for no promotions - f** it, I'm self-appointed
Now every phrase I coin in creates a mood and I join in
Etched in my dome - like widow's peaks - It's bitter sweet
Picture me - A permanent fixture in this industry
Nothing's what it seems - But in my dreams
I've been instructed by some kings "They'll try to cut you by your wings"
Now I...loot and plunder - I pulled the truth from under the rug
Hated my heart, I feel it running my blood
Utter disgust - f** the system, I make music for us
Giving that cinematic feel, I swear it usually does
Hook
I'm finna wild out if I don't get what I want, n***a
I'm done with asking ya'll and no this ain't no front, n***a
I work this hard because I know just what I want, n***a
And you can't take it from me, no I ain't no f** n***a
Chorus (Repeat 8x)
Blood, sweat tears
You ain't f**ing with my...
[Verse 2]
(Yeah, yeah...yo)
Finna reap what I sow - Then I'll be self-made
Oliver twist, hollering, "b**h, now I'm well paid"
Yeah, I said it - I'm unapologetic
If it ain't about the progress, forget it, I'm diabetic
That sugar-coated bullsh** you kick - Taking that away
Donny Hathaway got me feeling like Ca**ius Clay
Right before the name change...
My level of convictions, my religion, I consider this the same thing
So I'm spitting that Mohammad while I'm on it
It's what we have in common 'til they stuff me with embalmin'
Heart of a lion - There's no removal of a champ
Me and my camp will make our moves with no approval of a stamp
Uh...feeling super confident - Watch properly
Sloppily tryna steal my spot ends in botched robberies
Reflexing techniques - He just infects beats
Keep it unique, get out your seat and respect me
Hook
I'm finna wild out if I don't get what I want, n***a
I'm done with asking ya'll and no this ain't no front, n***a
I work this hard because I know just what I want, n***a
And you can't take it from, no I ain't no f** n***a
Chorus (Repeat 8x)
Blood, sweat tears
You ain't f**ing with my...
