Santigold - Creator lyrics

Got no need for the fancy things All the attention that it brings Tell me no, I say yes, I was chosen And I will deliver the explosion Can't say it's gonna get me far Do no good to say what you are I run the streets and I break up houses River runs deep and the flame devours it Me, I'm a creator, thrill is to make it up The rules I break got me a place up on the radar Me, I'm a taker, know what the stakes are Can't roll it back, it's understood, got to play our cards Me, I'm a creator, thrill is to make it up The rules I break got me a place up on the radar Me, I'm a taker, know what the stakes are Can't roll it back, it's understood, got to play our cards Sit tight, I know what you are Mad bright but you ain't no star Polish up till you make it gleam Your M.O., I know what you mean Tail riding and I know it's true While they screaming "I love you" Down deep you know there ain't no flow A soul decay was D.O.A., yeah I know what you here for now Word's out, you're an idea who*e now Now, don't you crush on me I'll see you in your pipe dreams Whether or not you know it's true You are who they dictate to That sh** must hurt real bad Faking what you wish you had Me, I'm a creator, thrill is to make it up The rules I break got me a place up on the radar Me, I'm a taker, know what the stakes are Can't roll it back, it's understood, got to play our cards Here all the folks come ask about me Bandwagon, know they used to doubt me Blind side tend to hit real hard You should heed the warning, get a bodyguard Steady friction in this b**h Creeping in just like an itch So far, I got the last laugh Still the rich rise up, still I live fast Wouldn't know it face to face Got no soul and got no taste Moving in, speed up the pace I got it locked, though, what a waste All the talk is standard fare Walk the walk if it gets you there On the grind till the gig is up I'm'a smash 'em down, put a muzzle on them like "what" Me, I'm a creator, thrill is to make it up The rules I break got me a place up on the radar Me, I'm a taker, know what the stakes are Can't roll it back, it's understood, got to play our cards Me, I'm a creator, thrill is to make it up The rules I break got me a place up on the radar Me, I'm a taker, know what the stakes are Can't roll it back, it's understood, got to play our cards
