lyrics

If I just kick a freestyle / and hope they play this
I’ll be acting in the game / Derwin Davis.
Look what they gave us / look what that made us.
And now the balance in the savings couldn’t save us?
I stay fly/ I gotta keep up with the Jones’
No matter what the interest on the loan is.
As long as the chrome is / putting in clockwork/
ETrade in my headrest so I can see my stock worth
And I’m expecting a bull market / like I was selling to the ’91 Champs
So I’ll be making a full deposit/ /cause by the summer I’ll be putting on camps
On how to rap so fresh / walk so free/
make progress / be so…me
If you really want to see what I’m on the path to
Just look to Luke, John, / Mark or Matthew.

Where Brooklyn at, Where Brooklyn at? / No/ wait!
It doesn’t matter we’re in the heart of the OH
If you’re coming to my city / come see me play
Make sure you bring your bluejackets / CBJ
Need we say / if you’re talking ‘bout my Crew
I’m on that Black and Yellow Black and Yellow Black and Yellow ish too!
It’s not really fair / but be clear what follows/
We’re cutting out the squares / shout out to Donatos
I flow the best / you’ll know the ones that I did.
Sounds like dope and fresh / got together like a hybrid
Hi/ Sid!! / Yeah/ I make ‘em Scream
I’m killin’ ‘em / they’re strung out on my words like a feind
I ain’t playing games / but really if you want to bet
Smart money is all in /on Lil’ Reg from Somerset.
The people I represent are sure to keep me relevant
The fact you’re still around / is proof of my benevolence.
Ever since my first bar / I knew I was greater
But patience is a virtue / that I ain’t get until later
I took #1 / and I didn’t save you a piece.
Why you even here / I thought Eric gave you the creeps?

You got your ballin shoes/ with no lace
Ya’ll done dropped the hook/ but ya’ll ain’t have no bait
I am from the great OH…IO
I’m about to show ya’ll some of my style
Meanwhile, I don’t need a cab/ I’ma just ride the bus
That’s a shout out to my city/ tell her that I got a crush
I show her so much love/ it’s almost a disgrace
Gotcha makin the/ “eww/ I smell fish” face
Man your city’s this great?/ Yeah/ if I may speak
I know it can be hot and snowy the same week
My apologies/ but I need ya’ll to remember
I spit hot fire/ and yeah I do be rapping in December
I been one of the coldest/ but thanks for taking notice
Ya’ll don’t need to stand/ ur not welcoming the POTUS/ yet
In 2040/ ya’ll know
I’m making good on my delivery/ and no it ain’t digiorno
