[Verse 1: J.Cole]
Maine on fire, my empire be higher
Than an octave on Mariah, you n***as should worship sire
Your crew holding dead weight like a f**in' hearse's tire
Meanwhile I'm like the flow diversifier verse is flyer
Gave you truth at a time when n***as prefer the liars
I was David promising the world that I'mma serve Goliath
Then I swam with sharks, made it to the land and parked
My dick in b**hes with intentions sick as satan's worst desires
Hell of a intro speedin' through this life at a hell of a tempo
Get my head out the window
20k in my pocket as im feeling the wind blow
And I ain't have a wallet since Nintendo, comprendo
Orchestrating these capers watch my paper crescendo
I used to wanna save the world, now all I do is spend dough
Till I snap back like Hov hat
Now I'm back with this big black strap like hol' that
[Hook]
Maine on fire
Top down b**h i ain't no liar
Henny on the rocks and plenty on the watch
Middle fingers to the ones who say we can't go higher
Maine on fire
Every week can see my name on flyers
Henny by the shots many bottles pop
And if she say that she ain't let me she a dang on liar
[Verse 2]
We collect a hundred thou
Getting over on promoters might as well say run it now
I was such a cunning child
The one your girl mama wish she brought back home instead of you
The one your mama glad you hung around
Cole a charming n***a that can harm a n***a
Chest out in your hood like I walk around with armor, n***a
But its just me and all my n***a's and we f** the baddest
b**hes on the planet witnesses this is
Hustle at its, finest cause while you n***a's chase vaginas
We just let the paper blind us
While vaginas chase behind us
Take notes make money don't make jokes
For the master grab his rope and make us all scapegoats
Real sh** but if the world really bout to end
We might as well let my n***a Craig out the pen
Pain so deep the words bled out the pen
And maine don't sleep n***a I win then come again
Huh
[Hook]
