Come on
In a league of my own
Welcome you to my home

Bitch don't play like that
If you play like that

Cross, hesitate, then I go
Get them outta that zone yeah
In a league of my own
Welcome you to my home yeah yeah
Fran is the next best thing
No rest est ting

Yes king
Go against them
Bring me their heads
Testing
Everything that they said
Would've fed, but instead they swing
Taking shots at my character
I don't wanna embarrass ya
I've just had enough of acting cordial
That day is over, we've heard all the parables
Parodies compared to me
Apparently you can check the panoramic view
I'm at the peak
Feel like Master P
With my strategy
Fuck gradually
Wanna blow up quickly, casualty
They love to chit chat like the faculty
I was getting head after Applebees
Now I'm back on track like an athlete
Lakeside balling everyday
Film that shit create a league
They might call to make a play
Damn I'm feeling so elite
Everything I touch is golden
I feel the energy flowing
Top of the world I've been floating
Focused on showing them this who the goat is
Who

Oh

Focused on showing them this who the goat is
