Yeah, yeah

Don't compare me to employees who hopin' they see a check

I'm in a drop-top McLaren just hopin' I see a ex

She hopin' we reconnect, no chance

I'm tryna be bigger than The Beatles, not hold hands

Keep on throwing stones, I'ma make statues

No face tatts, but people got my face tattooed

Freeing the damn by being free as I am

And speaking belief into people sittin' with reason to stand

Who just might be needin' a hand, I got you

9th Wonder blessed, provided the gospel

I feel God-likе, my fans all, feel like a [?]

Model your mind after minе, and you gon' be just fine

Model your mind off these other guys, and you gon' die

That's why I'm always at the head of the table, follow my lead

I'm a money tree, women tryna swallow my seed

You wasn't with me at my roots, though

I've been on the quest for love

For when and where the roots from with potential like a JUCO

[?], catch me in the backseat with ass checks in my lap

We in Utah, so we ****ed to a jazz beat

It's actually therapeutic, she classy, I'm there as view-less

Swimmin' out in Turks and Caicos, beware of the barracudas

I got heart, I'm the cause, my life is just the effect

I'm altering my reality, livin' in the effects

Made a half of million dollars and fell asleep on the jet

**** the club up, Atlanta ain't seen this since BMF

Put my account and reinvest, got a pound of weed for stress

I might drop two platinum albums in a year like DMX

Keep on living in my light and let my faith just lead the way

'Cause if I'm takin' y'alls advice, I'm probably makin' y'alls mistakes

Instead, I'm out in Egypt, just baskin' in the results

Of listening to myself and mapping out my goals, uh

My career is a course in self-confidence

And how ownership leads to opulence, adjust your oculus

If you tryna rise to prominence, bust down the doors

Assert dominance, when you call your first conference

I'm honest with my women, that's probably why they all hate me

They focus on being Lorey, I'm focused on being Jay-Z

The run that I'm on is gonna be longer than the Euphrates

Got a super model chick, that's badder than Tom Brady

This rap game bunch of clowns in disguise like John Gacy

You got one plaque, and it's not even your song, I got eighty, uh

Lately all the lazy, waitin' to be carried

Lot of y'all are dead, you're just waitin' to be buried

Listen, I been high since Michelle and Barack

You out your mind if you think I'm gon' stop, ha

I didn't come this far to only come this far

I gotta, keep on let 'em swingin', keep on let 'em swingin'

I didn't come this far to only come this far

I gotta, keep on let 'em swingin', keep on let 'em swingin'

Conversation alone in the mirror (Uh-huh)

I told myself before the year up (Before this year over)

I'd be another homeowner and another millionaire (Facts)

My life crazy, but I'm way too busy to tear up (Too busy)

Just please keep them broke vibes from near us (Walk away from me)

We different, I'm not the one to converse (Uh-huh)

By the time you mumble your verse

I'll be in top five company, comfortably, gunnin' for first (First)

If it's rap or either trap, one gon' come with some perks

The other come with a six foot hole dug in the earth

Look, I know how them numbers lookin', I don't gotta check stats (I don't do that)

The ***** good, but I'll still never text back (Nah)

Being unsigned, ain't never changed my potential

With every wave of a pencil, a nigga gained a momentum

Wanna walk in my shoes, but I'm not trading my Christians for Crocs (Never)

But lil' rap niggas only cravin' attention

It's funny when you high (Funny, uh), but it's ugly when you not

Everybody doubt, then suddenly you pop (Pop)

Niggas signin' 360's, and hope it do something for their stock

But I turned on more money than I got, and that's a lot

Had patience and it helped, I remember thinkin', "Make it big"

Then decorate the crib with paintings of myself

'Cause that who I owe (That's who)

You gotta give yourself credit, they definitely won't (They won't give you shit)

You won't hear this flow so often, so treasure these quotes

[?] cheddar, we know enough plugs with bricks

That I'd probably never be broke

I'm used to not gettin' sleep, that's a twenty-four-hour business

Exercisin' my brain, like twenty-four-hour fitness

Haters look at my jewels, get the feel of resentment

Feelin' like I'm 'posed to buy their friendship (What?)

I remember sellin' merch dolo, mailin' my own shipment (Dolo)

Now I'm on, y'all hoes thinks it's Christmas, am I the one trippin'? (Me?)

Even if you think you this nice, it's gon' be hard, try to match my ambition

I'm goin' on a rampage, handguns and champagne

House need a damn maid, my watch need a lampshade

Body language, everything, read what my hands say (Read what my hands say)

I'll go a little slower if you need me to translate (Need me to translate)

Boss moves, keep options, that's how you play it safe

Just sealed the deal for a hundred with a handshake

Weighin' out the racks, a hustler really made it out with rap

With the jewels in the bank accounts to match

(The Butcher) I didn't come this far to only come this far

I gotta, keep on let 'em swingin', keep on let 'em swingin'

I didn't come this far to only come this far

I gotta, keep on let 'em swingin', keep on let 'em swingin'

Yeah, when I first started recording, I swear it was more important

To make it the soul-train and a gold chain and some Jordans

Than makin' my own lane and then blaze in the trail forward

But I came from the old days where the vision was too distorted

To come to an understanding, a partnership and plannin'

For your marketin' and brandin', though the office was abandoned

Am I surprised? I'm monetized like more Morgan Stanley

I'm in a position now to make a difference for the family

My wife, kids, and in-laws deserve and inwalls

Picassos and war-hogs distressing my memoirs

About the knowledge of experiences I've endured

Create the bars, full of information like SIM cards

I left court rooms as a defendant, fully acquitted

In spite of the blood, suckers who try sully my image

And fightin' with mother****ers, who tried to tell me I'm finished

As if I'd ever consider the sky above as a limit

When I am the scientific, my honor, I'm dying with 'em

Iconic, gifted, it's rare, it requires a fairly, different kind of spirit

Far as inner feelings, I ain't tryna hear it

Bein' fearless, how I'm violated to a higher terror

[?], I guess I am here, 'cause ain't nobody near me

You want a pyramid and I'm inherant to the game

Fiery, I maintain, momentum and I made a name, clearly

But, I can't stop, I believe there's no rest more the wary

From the cards I was dealt, to awards on my shelf

I turn scars to a sense of regard for myself

Based on where I set the bar, I made it hard for myself

I lent the hand before my brothers called for my help

When I was still an inspiring, gun right for the firing

Tryna find a part-time job site that was hirin'

Never concerned with the age or the height

Requirements tryna shake the ways of the hood, like the violence Watchin' the homies being forced into early retirement

I'm stuck as another product of their environment

I was told that achievement of goal starts to tryin' at the prize

Keep your eye on the hard work, rely on it

And nothing else, don't just hustle for your health

Fear they gon' do nothing for you until you secure your health

Focus on the top, I've been hot since before craft rock

You out your mind if you think I'ma stop, yeah

I didn't come this far to only come this far

I gotta, keep on let 'em swingin', keep on let 'em swingin'

I didn't come this far to only come this far

I gotta, keep on let 'em swingin', keep on let 'em swingin'
