The Fat Lady |
They say that I’m a dreamer |
But underneath is more than meets the eye |
Like Da Vinci’s imagery of Mona Lisa |
Am I a leader? |
A follower? |
Nah, I’m neither |
Just keep my foot in front of the swoosh on my Nike sneaker |
Look, I’ve found my diamond in the rough |
Then I’ma keep on live by it, till the doctors pull the plug on me |
Guess I made it as a self-educated connoisseur |
Dedicated till I’m faded in a silent storm |
Not true to form like loose fitted jeans |
To get the green and live the dream like kings and queens |
And in between spit the fire emojis |
While rap fiends get it lifted high like a trophy |
I’m solely focused, droppin shit like a flock of pigeons |
The fog clears but the plot, it thickens |
Tryna make an honest livin with the job I’m given |
While the clock is tickin, heyo still no competition |
So when the fat lady sings, she better sing about me |
I’ve done this long enough to not be livin my dream |
When she enter that stage she better sing it with soul |
Let it be a magic moment, let the good times roll |
So when the fat lady sings, she better sing about me |
I’ve done this long enough to not be livin my dream |
When she enter that stage she better sing it with soul |
Let it be a magic moment, let the good times — good times roll |
Now what I come from is humble beginnings |
So from the jump, I was told that it’s one in a million that make it |
But I never let it tunnel my vision |
So not to wonder I’m chillin here with a comfortable feeling, I made it |
And that is something nobody can ever take from me |
See I’m close to my roots, just like a baby tree |
Guess I’m known to be true since 1983 |
I just wanna live this life in 1080p |
It’s so great to see I’m in it to run it |
Yeah I used to wanna live it, now I live and love it |
High ambitions on this limited budgets |
And no media coverage |
Makes them sick to the stomach |
Just like a chicken McNugget |
I spit an origami while these other rappers foldin paper planes |
Playin games and their fuckin nose is snotty |
My shit is poison ivy |
Until the day I check out and leave the key to the suite up in the hotel lobby |
When the fat lady sings, she better sing about me |
I’ve done this long enough to not be livin my dream |
When she enter that stage she better sing it with soul |
Let it be a magic moment, let the good times roll |
So when the fat lady sings, she better sing about me |
I’ve done this long enough to not be livin my dream |
When she enter that stage she better sing it with soul |
Let it be a magic moment, let the good times roll |
Uh, I remember when it all was so simple |
Lookin back at the problems that I’ve had and that I’ve been through |
It’s always monetary, the try to dry the levy while I try to fill it up |
Now it’s on a stick in mud |
Now fill a cup for mister 'half glass full' |
Even the hunter’s afraid of the big bad wolf |
Uh, they roam in sheep’s clothin, hopin that my feet’ll slip |
And dip like Dorito chips when I show a weak moment |
I’m free spoken, get off my penis tip and eat a dick |
Only followers in need of leadership |
I’ve built a castle outta sand with my own hands |
So it’s hard when there is conceited kids you’re dealin with |
You see, I work for mine’s and never handed nothin |
I’m from the workin class, I guess I had it coming |
When I’m willing to get my fingers dirty and expect the people to do the same |
but they’d rather hit the panic button |
When the fat lady sings, she better sing about me |
I’ve done this long enough to not be livin my dream |
When she enter that stage she better sing it with soul |
Let it be a magic moment, let the good times roll |
So when the fat lady sings, she better sing about me |
I’ve done this long enough to not be livin my dream |
When she enter that stage she better sing it with soul |
Let it be a magic moment, let the good times roll |
