Royce Da 5'9" - Underdog lyrics

[Interlude: Chuck D] I'm Chuck D, giving hip-hop's state of mind back Lazarus, we played him last week We're going to play this Out here in Detroit Royce Da 5'9" also recorded with Lazarus as well Been one of the most powerful interviews I've heard What we played last week with Lazarus [Intro: Royce Da 5'9"] Yeah yeah Royce Da 5'9" I'm upin here with my man, Lazarus Yo Amir Next time you knock somebody's f**ing head off, I want you to think about these verses IV, what up, my n***a? [Hook: Lazarus (& Royce Da 5'9")] People see I'm from the D and say that I ain't nothing But I turned around, flip the script and made something I'm me, now let's run it back on them They tried to take me for a slave, now I own them (People see I'm from the D and say that I ain't nothing But I turned around, flip the script and made something Of me, now let's run it back on them They tried to take me for a slave, now I own them) [Verse 1: Royce Da 5'9"] Back-to-back platinum plaques, switched my car from white to black After Charleston switched it back to black My rapping style is acrobat, mixed with a private plane Fly even while I'm plain, come to bars, I don't talk I sound off thunder thoughts, I will give you all a running start Anytime, three sixty-five days, try me Or y'all may want to keep throw [?] or somersault Look dog, I'm not not underdog, I pop to put your dog up under tar A headstone, some gra** up under stars for rapping at the one Smiling at you while you're howling at the moon, and how so long I'm laughing at the sun, laughing at the fact I'm f**ing like A rabbit having fun, and you ain't having none And ask us now the rabbit got the gun, and I don't need no explanation I try to keep my past behind me, f** my recent destination You dissing me for my attention, you won't be getting it undivided Cause I will come divide you to five hundred degrees and separate you [Hook] [Verse 2: Lazarus] Check it out, now picture me the underdog Unknown whose hunger claws, jugulars ruptured, crush his jaws Feeling the blood in my surgeon galls, pause I came from nothing and caused an eruption Put my hands in these racks and gloves, then I became Gennady Golovkin Without an a**umption, I'm like a hybrid, it's preposterous As Rakim, and the Indominus, Rex our perplexion Raise the spirit as our possession from the village of Sargodha Here comes the twist of a rollercoaster, chase me but you can't catch me When I'm repping like Furiosa, furious as a Sosa Apocalypses, a narcissist, my arms and wrists are twisting Write my bars like I got Parkinsons, against the odds [?] Better myself, I'm profiting [?] and rose up on there chessboard and they got the king dropping all competitors On any verse, I'm rep for my city, my home is a symbol for overachievers And those who believe us that we are the leaders, the congressmen and senators I slay who slaves his masters, I'm the prey who preys on predators [Hook] [Outro: Royce Da 5'9"] They try to take me as a slave, now I own them
