Already Home
Jay-Z ft. Kid Cudi Lyrics

You either love me or leave me alone
I won't tolerate anything else in between; either choose to love me or let me be

Oh they want me to fall (fall)
They would like for me to fail

Fall from the top (top)
To no longer be at the highest level

They want me to drop (drop)
They desire for me to fail

They want me to stop (stop)
They hope that I will cease what I am doing

They want me to go (go)
They would like for me to leave or disappear

I'm already gone (already)
They can't ask me to go if I have already left

The s*** that I'm on
The things that I am doing and the lifestyle that I am living

I'm already home
I am settled and successful in the life that I am living

(Hey, I'm already home)
I am already living the life that I want, so there is no need for change

These n****'s want me to go, don't they know that I'm gone
People would like me to leave or fail, but I have already surpassed their expectations

They know I'm space shuttle level they need oxyg-g-g-gen
My level of success is so high, others have trouble keeping up

Don't they know that they borin'?
Others are not as exciting or interesting as I am

Don't they know that I yawn,
The actions of others are not enough to keep me engaged or entertained

Only time they excitin' is when they mentioning Shawn
Others only become interesting when they are talking about me or my achievements

You see single white female when she dyed her hair blonde
Others may try to copy or mimic my success, but it will never be authentic

Sometimes I look at these rappers, the movie remind me of them
The behavior and attitudes of other rappers can seem fake or contrived

Somebody turn these boys off
I am tired of hearing from others who are not on my level

Can't they see that it's foolish to try and kill me with songs
Others cannot bring me down with their music or lyrics

What the f*** are they Lauryn, you killin' me softly
Others are not talented enough to harm me in any meaningful way

I open the door for them, what else can I do?
I have already helped others as much as I can, it is up to them to achieve success

These n****'s want me to walk for them, somebody talk to them
Others expect me to do everything for them, but they need to learn to walk on their own

I taught 'em about fish scale they want me to fish for them
I have taught others how to achieve success, but they still expect me to do the work for them

They want me to catch clean, then cook up a dish for them
Others want me to do all the work for them, but they are not willing to put in any effort themselves

All of this just for them, or they got a diss for him
Others have many expectations for me but are not willing to reciprocate or show appreciation

They want me to disappear, like it's gonna shift for them
Others would like me to fade into obscurity so that they can have their chance at success

They say that I'm in the way, they want me to sit with them
Others see me as a hindrance to their success and want me to lower myself to their level

But what they admitting is, they ain't got s*** for him
Others do not have what it takes to achieve success on their own, so they blame me for holding them back

But really the fact is, we not in the same bracket
Others are not on the same level as me, so comparisons are pointless

Not in the same league, don't shoot at the same baskets
Others cannot compete with me in the same arena or industry

Don't pay the same taxes, hang with the same b****es
Others do not have the same level of success or connections as I do

So how am I in the way, what is it I'm missing?
Others blame me for their lack of success, but they fail to recognize their own shortcomings

N**** I been missing, n**** I been gone
Others have been too focused on themselves to recognize my achievements and contributions to the industry

The s*** that you just witnessed is in, I bin on
I have been successful in the past, and my current success is proof of my continued relevancy

And as for the critics, tell me I don't get it
Critics may try to bring me down, but they cannot deny my success

Everybody can tell you how to do it, they never did it
Others are quick to give advice or criticize, but they have never achieved the same level of success

Now these n****'s is mad, oh they call me a Camel
Others are jealous of my success and resort to name-calling as a means of disrespecting me

But I mastered the drought, what the f*** I'm an animal
Despite difficulties or setbacks, I have achieved immense success, proving my resilience and skill

Half-man half-mammal
I have the strength and fortitude of an animal, but the intelligence and self-awareness of a human

My sign is a Sag, this is just what I plan to do
My astrological sign is Sagittarius, and my success is in line with my plans for my life and career

Hoe don't be mad
Others should not be upset with me for achieving success, but instead strive to achieve their own

I'm in the hall already, on the wall already
My achievements are already recognized and celebrated, displayed on the walls of fame and recognition

I'm a work of art, I'm a Warhol already
My success and achievements are as celebrated and recognized as works of art by famous artist Andy Warhol

On another level, on another plane already
My level of success and achievement is beyond what others are capable of

H-O-V I got my own lane already (already)
My success and achievements have earned me my own place in the industry, separate and distinct from others

I done cooked up the rock already
I have already achieved immense success and fame in the music industry

So why the f*** can't y'all get hot already (already)
My success is proof that it is possible to achieve great things in the industry, but it is up to others to step up and follow in my footsteps

Put your name in the pot already, n****s compare me to Biggie and Pac already
Others should strive to achieve success and recognition like I have, rather than comparing themselves to other legendary artists

Like I'm gone already and I am n**** I'm already home already
Others hope for me to fail or disappear, but I have already achieved immense success and am settled and comfortable in my life

If y'all can't already see I ain't worried about y'all cause I'm already me (already)
I have already found my true self and am content with my success, regardless of what others say or do

Do you already, enough of the complaining bo-who's already
Others should focus on their own success and stop complaining or whining about what I have achieved

Eat food already, ain't nothing given you gotta claim your shoes already,
Success is not handed to you, but earned through hard work and dedication

Yeah so on this summation I don't know who you racing
I do not see others as competition, as I have already achieved what I set out to do

I'm already at the finish line with the flag waving
I have already achieved immense success and recognition, and am comfortably settled in my accomplishments
