| [00:02.280] | (Intro) |
| [00:02.930] | *****s be askin' me like, |
| [00:06.240] | "Man you took all that time off. I understand you had to |
| [00:08.580] | get your mind right or whatever you was doin' but I'm just curious to know like... |
| [00:13.660] | how you, how you gonna approach the next ******t?" |
| [00:17.170] | Say it's the same way I always do, not givin' a ***** |
| [00:20.620] | (Verse 1: Royce Da 5'9") |
| [00:21.750] | Million dollar maker, not a faker, try to call me over the hill |
| [00:24.600] | It's probably because you saw me chillin' beside a pile of paper |
| [00:27.040] | Life's a Picasso painting, psych, my life's more like an obstacle, ain't it? |
| [00:31.070] | Like it's somethin' in front of the drop, and I gotta ride around it |
| [00:33.560] | On my way to make me another child support payment |
| [00:35.640] | From humble beginnings, though we live lavishly now |
| [00:38.250] | And what we couldn't afford to get, we would have it somehow |
| [00:41.260] | Stayin' at grandma's, puddled in front of the open oven |
| [00:43.950] | Rubbin' our hands together like Baby with cameras around |
| [00:46.860] | Manic depressed, drawn to my tool |
| [00:48.940] | Genetically predisposed to be a mechanic or less |
| [00:51.790] | I handle my failures way better than I ever handled success |
| [00:54.690] | And I let you boys be the loudest, holdin' my fo' fo' |
| [00:57.660] | From '94, on my retro kick before I let you let go clips |
| [01:01.050] | I'll let Michael Jordan be my stylist |
| [01:03.490] | I'll rock one of them baggy ass Tracy McGrady suits |
| [01:06.510] | I've been poppin' since I was 5, that was in '82 |
| [01:09.360] | Believe that, a ***** been knockin' more lady's boots |
| [01:12.050] | Than Kanye critiquin' at Steve Madden |
| [01:13.790] | I'm just a LOX fan with childish thinkin' |
| [01:16.080] | The last time I got pulled over for drunk drivin' |
| [01:18.720] | I took the breathalyzer out the cop's hand and tried to drink it |
| [01:21.270] | That's what I do for my community |
| [01:23.160] | Your boo told me what she wanna do to me |
| [01:25.390] | Before she dropped on two knees and then blew me like an opportunity |
| [01:28.640] | (Hook: Royce da 5'9" + Venice Dawn) |
| [01:29.100] | To me, it's what I see(Real *****) |
| [01:31.550] | To you, it's what you do |
| [01:34.610] | Prhyme! |
| [01:35.060] | Ha ha ha-ha, if I could make *****s as real as me |
| [01:37.870] | Ha ha ha-ha, I'd ask, "How come *****s ain't real as me?" |
| [01:40.160] | To me, it's what I see |
| [01:42.640] | To you, it's what you do |
| [01:45.750] | Prhyme! |
| [01:46.830] | Ha ha ha-ha, if I could make *****s as real as me |
| [01:48.950] | Ha ha ha-ha, I'd ask, "How come *****s ain't real as me?" |
| [01:50.580] | (Bridge: Royce da 5'9") |
| [01:52.630] | Multiply, multiply |
| [01:55.420] | That's what the real *****s do |
| [01:58.360] | Multiply, multiply |
| [02:00.810] | That's on a real ***** |
| [02:02.540] | (Verse 2: Royce da 5'9") |
| [02:03.090] | Your favorite rapper's up in LIV |
| [02:05.680] | While I'm on controlled substances, search around my crib for a ***** to give |
| [02:09.590] | But I couldn't find it |
| [02:11.540] | My notebook should be made of a wooden binder |
| [02:13.420] | Cause that's what my albums be sellin' |
| [02:15.250] | But I don't give a ***** about nothin' but good ****** |
| [02:18.160] | Long as these *****s call me GOAT |
| [02:19.780] | If I don't get through to you the call failed |
| [02:22.120] | Cause I was probably on that Wolf of Wall Street boat, I'm a hard sell |
| [02:25.230] | Maybe too lyrical for 'em |
| [02:26.840] | The Lord gave me a choice to either be king or give all Hell |
| [02:30.100] | I chose the latter like a fireman climbin' up to a charred rail |
| [02:33.410] | In front of Miley, steerin' a giant wreckin' ball |
| [02:36.710] | Miss me with your mollies and your Tyrese wisdom |
| [02:39.220] | I don't connect with y'all and these antics |
| [02:41.210] | Today you give your life to the game |
| [02:42.690] | Tomorrow you be posin' in pictures, lookin' like Steve Francis |
| [02:45.380] | You ain't turnin' up, you're bein' backhanded like Pete Sampras |
| [02:48.640] | About that, I missed my uncle's funeral to go to South by Southwest |
| [02:52.350] | You ain't gotta appreciate it, but you better respect the fact |
| [02:56.060] | That I'm a rapper and nothin' wack done came out my mouth yet |
| [02:59.560] | (Hook: Royce da 5'9" + Venice Dawn) |
| [03:00.270] | To me, it's what I see(You're welcome!) |
| [03:02.610] | To you, it's what you do |
| [03:05.120] | Prhyme! |
| [03:05.780] | Ha ha ha-ha, if I could make *****s as real as me |
| [03:08.570] | Ha ha ha-ha, I'd ask, "how come *****s ain't real as me?" |
| [03:10.950] | To me, it's what I see |
| [03:13.550] | To you, it's what you do |
| [03:16.500] | Prhyme! |
| [03:16.910] | Ha ha ha-ha, if I could make *****s as real as me |
| [03:19.750] | Ha ha ha-ha, I'd ask, "how come *****s ain't real as me?" |
| [03:21.370] | (Verse 3: Jay Electronica) |
| [03:21.890] | Me and Pharaoh is like Dorothy and Toto on the brick road |
| [03:23.830] | Crossin' at the crissroads |
| [03:25.200] | The valleys and the alleys where the gods switch to ****** mode |
| [03:27.960] | I came through, the Harley pipe was loud like a lion |
| [03:30.410] | The title on the marquee said "Child out of Zion" |
| [03:33.160] | Contemplatin' on another plane, hoverin' down lover's lane |
| [03:36.160] | Won a great debate against the state about the mother plane |
| [03:38.960] | He called me by that other name, I called him by his other name |
| [03:41.860] | The lightnin' struck the internet like a screen door in a hurricane |
| [03:44.810] | Jay Electricity, baptizin' in Felicity |
| [03:47.250] | Where he been the past three years? It's just a mystery |
| [03:50.420] | If it ain't come from one of my peers, it ain't a diss to me |
| [03:53.160] | I'm a thousand leagues under the sea, *****s can't get to me |
| [03:55.960] | The F in my middle name with the period stands for "Victory" |
| [03:58.710] | I came from the bottoms of Hell with Jezebels |
| [04:01.250] | Sniffin' blow with her friends in the dens of iniquity |
| [04:04.150] | When I was young, I was confused, I thought God was a mystery |
| [04:06.640] | But everything I knew since the time I began to grew |
| [04:09.750] | Was taught to me by the wickedest men, who twist the histories |
| [04:12.860] | Who pulled out the cuffs of deception and and hitched their wrist to we |
| [04:15.850] | Now all praises due to Allah, we seein' crystally |
| [04:18.440] | The Pyramids are there to bear witness to the gods |
| [04:20.980] | So when the angels heard me spit, they bit their lip, this ******t is hard |
| [04:23.940] | Utterly unstoppable, in high school I was voted most popular |
| [04:27.390] | By the unpopular, phantom of the chakras |
| [04:29.360] | (Hook: Royce da 5'9" + Venice Dawn) |
| [04:29.880] | To me, it's what I see |
| [04:32.420] | To you, it's what you do |
| [04:35.100] | Prhyme! |
| [04:35.710] | Ha ha ha-ha, if I could make *****s as real as me |
| [04:38.680] | Ha ha ha-ha, I'd ask, "how come *****s ain't real as me?" |
| [04:40.720] | To me, it's what I see |
| [04:43.620] | To you, it's what you do |
| [04:46.210] | Prhyme! |
| [04:46.970] | Ha ha ha-ha, if I could make *****s as real as me |
| [04:49.780] | Ha ha ha-ha, I'd ask, "how come *****s ain't real as me?" |
