[Intro] Fly! [Chorus] Raise the bar like I'm doing a bench-press Got some sh*t I need to get up off my chest I won't stop 'til they consider me the best Nothing more, nothing less, can't compare me to the rest Nah Raise the bar like I'm doing a bench-press Got some sh*t I need to get up off my chest I won't stop till they consider me the best Nothing more, nothing less, can't compare me to the rest, ni**a [Verse] They dropped the ball like it's January 1st In a pandemic, really never thought it could get worse If the label ain't gon' push it, you keep putting in that work Love my brother Joey, he the first one, took us all to Turks Freed me from my deal and now I'm fully independent Praying to my ancestors, I am their descendant Things been on the up and up, don't make me start descending I've been listening to all the messages that y'all been sending Baby on the way, can't take my foot off the gas You talk sh*t about me, I'm gon' put my foot in your ass I'm about to cop a safe that I'm gon' fill up with cash My left palm keep on itching like I'm getting a rash Took my time perfecting my craft, they said I'm taking long Waited three years and a half, what you waiting on? fu*k you must heard, this that Grey Poupon I'm about to shine my fu*king light just like the break of dawn I ain't dimming it for no one, tryna build my ark like Noah On the internet they show guns, so just treat me like a shogun In the strip club, throw some more ones I've been solid as the Rock, you can see I'm no Samoan but you get the line Better get in line, fell in love with hip-hop when I first heard Tribe singing Check the Rhime As a kid I used to always dream of getting signed Back at [?] they used to say "Yo CJ lemme get a dime" So Ibrahim [?] while Cole was making Born Sinner That was years ago, I promised they wouldn't remember Had a cypher in the staircase, hit me and two members Been a fan of Cole music since that one song Simba Spring 2013, lost Steelo last Christmas We all went looking for him, we thought he was missing Ain't know what to do, I wish things had went different Guess we couldn't see the signs just because we were kids then Ain't know what it looked like but that was depression Lost our ringleader, it taught us a lesson Left his mark on us, he made an impression Think about him every day because we all miss him We still on that 47 sh*t (That's a fact) All the knowledge you was dropping, I just can't forget You should see your influence, how you're still relevant Know how he rocks, so every single word I said, I meant We rode that bus from [?] to [?] to settlements Used to say I loved you and I meant that sh*t Was one day older but it still felt like a mentorship Must've returned to where you came cause you were heaven sent [Chorus] Raise the bar like I'm doing a bench-press Got some sh*t I need to get up off my chest I won't stop till they consider me the best Nothing more, nothing less, can't compare me to the rest Nah Raise the bar like I'm doing a bench-press Got some sh*t I need to get up off my chest I won't stop till they consider me the best Nothing more, nothing less, can't compare me to the rest, ni**a [Outro] Fly!
