| Yeah, I shall never leave Hip-Hop
|
| Controlled by my two hands, they go tick tock
|
| Around the clock, yes it’s my time, my throne
|
| Better know the time of day in any fuckin' time zone
|
| I’m feelin' like I’m on top of the rhinestone
|
| Pullin' the ladder from heaven, about to climb home
|
| Mental thoughts are sharper than a pine cone
|
| In this world of numbers, I keep my nine on
|
| And I don’t go to church because the lyin' long
|
| And the preacher, he be gettin' his shine on
|
| But I know my Lord — I am God’s own
|
| Back to my hands, tick-tick; |
| a time bomb
|
| Yeah, don’t you know I’ll be (I'll be)
|
| Yeah, don’t you know I’ll be (I'll be)
|
| I’ll be here cause I won’t quit yeah
|
| You can try lock me up
|
| You can try to break me down
|
| But I stay strong
|
| It’s my own throne
|
| Can’t stop now cause that ain’t me
|
| You can try lock me up
|
| You can try to break me down
|
| But I stay strong
|
| It’s my own throne
|
| Can’t stop now cause that ain’t me
|
| Tryna stay afloat on my inner tube
|
| When they turned my city into a swimmin' pool
|
| Before that, it was a livin' cesspool
|
| We gotta get on our shit, like gnats do
|
| Polices be on my tip, like hats do
|
| But I stay strong like blacks do
|
| Never saved by the bell in a black school
|
| And I stay in trouble like Zack do
|
| And in this game, nobody’s on my plateau
|
| Therefore my name remains, like a tattoo
|
| Yes, I take giant steps in Shaq boots
|
| B-I-R-D-man Junior, or — Weezy F. Baby, baby
|
| Yeah, don’t you know I’ll be (I'll be)
|
| Yeah, don’t you know I’ll be (I'll be)
|
| I’ll be here cause I won’t quit yeah
|
| You can try lock me up
|
| You can try to break me down
|
| But I stay strong
|
| It’s my own throne
|
| Can’t stop now cause that ain’t me
|
| You can try lock me up
|
| You can try to break me down
|
| But I stay strong
|
| It’s my own throne
|
| Can’t stop now cause that ain’t me
|
| That ain’t me
|
| See I won’t stop, that ain’t me
|
| I won’t quit, that ain’t me
|
| No, I won’t stop, that ain’t me
|
| Cause that ain’t me
|
| Alright; |
| alright, alright, alright
|
| I’m in their conversations
|
| The title’s up for grabs, I’m into confiscation
|
| Punch, shot, and stab; |
| now you’re the doctor’s patient
|
| Wild like an Arab from the Islamic nation
|
| I get money 'round the clock, ain’t got no time for hatin'
|
| And these niggas ain’t shit, like they’re constipated
|
| I get the coupe with the kit, watch me lobster red it
|
| Drop the top at the light, that’s when I be headed
|
| So far ahead of them I feel outdated
|
| But I feel electric like I’m Rayden
|
| Used to play Mortal Kombat when I was a couch potato
|
| And now I’m coming out the faders, no homo
|
| Yeah, don’t you know I’ll be (I'll be)
|
| Yeah, don’t you know I’ll be (I'll be)
|
| I’ll be here cause I won’t quit yeah
|
| You can try lock me up
|
| You can try to break me down
|
| But I stay strong
|
| It’s my own throne
|
| Can’t stop now cause that ain’t me
|
| You can try lock me up
|
| You can try to break me down
|
| But I stay strong
|
| It’s my own throne
|
| Can’t stop now cause that ain’t me |
