On Fire Lyrics

[Intro:]
So let's set the world on fire
We can burn brighter
Than the sun


[Verse 1: Luke Christopher]
Said the women and the children, I'm talking to them
Said he got a bad feeling, well feeling's a sin
How I'm spose to live like this, how I'm spose to live like this
Caught in the middle of the mist with a mistress
This can't be the life I'm spose to live

Female attention on that Oprah shit, life on four leaf clover shit
Tryna give the people what they want to hear
Losing is my biggest fear, but nooooo
Cause the minute you lose control uh
The world stops when your shit don’t knock, be the label’s robot. No truth no lie
Finna set the world on fire, motherfucker

[Hook:]
Ask me why I always party
Ask me why I tend to drink
Ask me why I'm always talking
But I never tend to think
Ask me why I'm always crazy
Ask me why I tend to lie
But the only thing I know is I'mma set this world on fire

[Verse 2: Luke Christopher]
Cheers, been here for eighteen years
Been watching homies substitutin pills for their fears
Been rejected by women hotter than the devil's ears
And now that they think I'm Hollywood all them bitches care, right
Ha, truth all up in them lines so baby I hope you don't know my secret
I know it's hard when you get it to decide whether or not you gonna plan to keep it
I feel it, I want it, it hit me, I don't ever want it to die, rock-a-bye with me bye with me

[Hook:]

[Verse 3: Luke Christopher]
The way you told me I was only cool because I rap'd
I turned and told your friends that I was with you for your ass

But, I'm bout the future so I'm burning up the past
Like the land is polyester and the ocean's made of gas
I'mma set the world on fire


[Hook x2:]
