From the 'burbs to the sticks, my words finna flip

I am here to take nothin' and formulate a hit.

Niggas got a Fu Gees, I'll exceed Lauren Hill now.



Miseducated by record labels I elevated to a higher level

so I am better than any hater

and you know how I get, embody my hip-hop shit

Personify greats or these label niggas is on my dick.



Oh how they lean, I'ma go where I please

Pimp stroll where I please, niggas know who I plead nigga

What you know about that, what you know about that

Roll on my feet when I'm rollin' through the streets

?? all day ?? nigga

What you know about that, what you know about that

I am the leader of a revolution, the betterment of music

is embedded in they head and chest, and the entire unit.

It's by pupils to require truth, and God do it

Cause fiction ain't legit so we deny tunin' in.



Yeah, I spit with pride when I'm doin' it

Doin' for the city though, I'm tire of this music shit.

And you know how it be, they hatin' on a G

Don't pay for radios spins, my city lovin' me.



Niggas loggin' on cus they young boss talk of me

Do it for the city and prove it for the county

If forms happen to rap game, nigga no mouth piece.

I'm earl-lacker, the backpack of verse thrasher,

bred from the huddle, the coach stretchin' his first backup.



I'm a monster, blitz when I want to

Bomb like lip gloss, bitch I am awesome.

The storm you've been warned of is on and upon us

Flow so potent it penetrates the armor.



Defication of all of, definition of raw, a star

Who gon' make it, my reputation is marvelous.

And you know how I get, embody my hip-hop shit

Personify greats or these label niggas is on my dick.
