Keys to the Castle
Black Math Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Shaking the floor
Looking around for your exit
Here let me show you the door
We out here trying trying trying trying look for your gold
'Cause fortune favors the bold
Don't don't know what you been told
But when we squeeze the last drop you'll feel the grip of our hold
We roll in on 24s
Got the crew out the back door
Ghost ride da whip through your living room
Then you don't know what hit you
Before we poof that magician shit
When we roll up
Shakedown
No one's gonna stop us now, no
You cannot go
You cannot go
'Til you hand me the keys to the castle
When we roll up
Shakedown
No one's gonna stop us now, no
You cannot go
You cannot go
'Cause the show's only just getting started
We got you down on your knees
Feels like a million degrees
Yeah the pressure cooker be cookin
But the ice so cold I could freeze
We dropping bombs on the safe
And it's poppin' off in your face
And you're gonna get used to the madness
And you're gonna embrace second place
'Cause this is game mode
Nice try, play again
Already beating the boss
And I'm about to beat it again
'Cause this is our night
Our fight
Our time
Already got yours
Now it's time, to take mine
When we roll up
Shakedown
No one's gonna stop us now, no
You cannot go
You cannot go
'Til you hand me the keys to the castle
When we roll up
Shakedown
No one's gonna stop us now, no
You cannot go
You cannot go
'Cause the show's only just getting started
When we roll up
When we roll up
The show's only just getting started
We got you down on your knees
Feels like a million degrees
We puttin' pedal to metal
While you be feeling the squeeze
You can prepare to defend
But no we don't play pretend
We just came here to win
Yeah we just came here to win
Yeah we just win
