Too Late |
Da da da dum dum it’s too late |
Da da da dum dum it’s too late |
A lot of artificial niggas gettin' mad it |
Phonte and 9th got the raw uncut, with no preservatives or additives |
So many words describe how we manage it |
Beautiful, glorious, fuck it, you pick an adjective |
Some of you beat makin' niggas sound funny to me |
When y’all be in the club comin' to me |
Playin' them garbage ass tracks but it’s nothin' to me |
Cause me and 9th come together so wonderfully |
What a relief |
I’m sick of these youngins with beef |
We comin' with the live shit, really somethin' to see |
Two hip hop enthusiasts, crate diggin' analysts |
Break beat choppin' |
Turn table protagonists |
Waitin' |
To crush wack MCs when I see one |
With junior college skills, tryin' to hit a D1 |
Niggas kill me with superfluous schemes |
But y’all ain’t fuckin' with the merchant of dreams |
It’s like this and we doin' it |
And we doin' it |
And we doin' it |
And we doin' it yo |
Da da da dum dum it’s too late |
We got the crown, y’all can’t take it back |
You wanna battle? |
It’s too late for that |
Da da da dum dum it’s too late |
Yo, about to watch this paper stack |
You wanna freestyle? |
It’s too late for that |
Da da da dum dum it’s too late |
We got the crown, y’all can’t take it back |
You wanna battle? |
Hell naw, it’s too late for that |
Da da da dum dum it’s too late |
Yo, about to watch this paper stack |
You wanna freestyle? |
It’s too late for that |
Ayo, let me stop and say this |
Phonte drop the greatest rhymes to ever sit atop the play list |
Got barbers tellin' me that I can not be faded |
But y’all niggas fakin' jacks like Rob Pilatus |
Just stop |
You’re not the greatest |
Got a B Team style |
Can’t fuck with a nigga from the A List |
Quick to tell niggas on the mic to back off of it |
And earned an ill rep because of it |
You need a hit? |
Let me order it |
I got a masters in freestyle |
And a «hook singing» baccalaureate |
Cause I never back down |
Y’all niggas be so wack I hear your engineers laughing in the background |
Bawling like, «Why the fuck them niggas say that? |
Fuck this session, where’s 9th and Phonte at?» |
Niggas kill me with superfluous schemes |
But y’all ain’t fucking with the merchant of dreams |
It’s like this and we gettin' it |
We got the crown, y’all can’t take it back |
You wanna battle? |
It’s too late for that |
Da da da dum dum it’s too late |
Da da da dum dum it’s too late |
Cause you get an F- for your poor performance |
