[Verse 1]
I think it's time I remind the critics
When they crying for lyrics, My, who supplies them with it?
Before DFUOB 4 and 5, admit it
Of course, lines, you was forced to rewind to get it
Though different sources implied I'd revise my image, SURPRISE!
I didn't resort to the lies or gimmicks
And even though the fuse was short, the fire finished
I used the torch to ignite, soon as I had lit it
Still haven't met my match-- Even I've committed--
Crimes against the divine, until I repented
Witness the demise of the 99th percentage
With heat to your mind like a curling iron, get it?
You people are blind. But son still shining with it
Nickel and dime, five and the ride is tinted
I'm in it, It's mine, I'm livid like I'm the tenant
They're all saying EUROPE, Other guys are Finnish
You forgot?

[Hook]
I put my heart and my soul in it
I started, I'm gone end it
Go harder with no limits, in case you forgot
Gave you line after line didn't I?
Time after time, there ain't no stealing my shine
But just in case you forgot
So go ahead and doubt me
I hear 'em talkin about me
What would they do without me?
In case you forgot
This the beginning, im winning, I'll never stop
When I'm at the top, remember this day
Just in case you forgot

[Verse 2]
Ok, Off of that macho
Uh, On to what I wrote that made em say I'm gifted like a tied bow
That may make a label wanna kick it like it's tae Bo
Cuz everything I say, they can feel it like it's hollow
Hello. Heaven high, That's what he strive for
So even through the CRAP, I roll but he never DICE
Cuz he know, the truth is in the word, not the cards that he's dealt
Look the snake in the eyes
I've been at bat for a decade
Past that, since my dad snapped on cassette tapes
Flashback to my class, Rapped in my essays
Scratch that, Writing mad tracks on my rest days
Curiosity, The game's Gatto, Wait in the car
I'm Clemenza, remember, don't change who you are
Looking to higher people like employers
Not weak like potential lawyers; more weight on the bar. Ha!

[Hook]

[Verse 3]
As I begin to improve my wealth
I enter the coolest of winters and peruse the shelf
Mentor apprentice and fools who pursued my help
With tools, I use to fix and introduce myself
Tell everybody shut your trap, We could all use answers
Bussing that, see the fog through glasses
Give em flame from the Name on High, so I could fall through ashes
They want me to hold back like ballroom dancers
Whoever was left standing got beat down, 3 rounds
Whatever pop that you thought was hot is obsolete now
Sweet how the top is where I'm bout to be
The shots at me get blocked, even out the box, I'm board like a rebound
I'm just cleaning the glass, properly so you can see how
The kids, I assist, and old rhymers are senile
I know how to handle it
Watch me crossover, and dismantle challengers
I got no one to compete now

[Hook]
