Make Me Feel
Joey Bada$$ Lyrics

Something in the way you make me feel
There is a certain quality about the way you affect me emotionally

Feel, feel (Statik Selektah)
The feeling intensifies

Tell you, baby
I want to express to you, my love

When opportunity meets preparation
When the right chance aligns with careful planning

I'm goin' off like a detonation
I am exploding with energy and enthusiasm

I want it all, fuck a reparation
I desire success in every aspect, disregarding any reparations owed

I do it all with no hesitation
I take on challenges without any doubt or delay

Fuck a punchline, I hit 'em with a combination
Instead of relying on clever wordplay, I deliver a powerful sequence of lines

Like this shit was second nature
I perform effortlessly, as if it comes naturally to me

Layin' down the law like this shit is legislature
I assert my authority and set the rules like a legislative body

Alligator jaws sayin' ain't nobody greater
My confident demeanor suggests that no one surpasses me in talent or skill

I bow my head and do my numbers like it's nothin' major
I humbly focus on accomplishing tasks and achieving success without considering it a significant event

Over time, I've been too humble, time to up the wager
After being modest for a while, it's time for me to increase the stakes and be more assertive

Eight figures later, got my life all figured out
After accumulating significant wealth, I have a clear understanding of my life's direction

Gotta have tunnel vision if you wanna make it out
To succeed, one must focus solely on their goals and disregard distractions

No fear of missin' out
I am not afraid of opportunities passing me by

Ten thousand hours in, now it's time to make it count
After dedicating a significant amount of time to my craft, it is crucial to make the most of it

Investin' ten percent of whatever in my bank account
I allocate a portion of my earnings for investments, regardless of the amount

Just in case we see bad weather, I hit a nice amount
In preparation for potential financial difficulties, I accumulate a substantial sum

You don't really lose on stocks, never, 'less you take 'em out
As long as you hold onto your stocks, you don't truly lose unless you sell them

Thinkin' 'bout puttin' some equity in another house
I am considering investing in real estate and acquiring ownership in another property

Thin line between brevity and longevity
There is a delicate balance between being concise and having a lasting impact

One thing I never sacrifice is integrity
I always maintain my moral principles and never compromise my integrity

I ain't nothin' like these rappers that's in disparity
I am distinct from other rappers who lack coherence or equality

None of these niggas is seein' me, just for clarity
None of these individuals can rival or compare to me, let me make that clear

Rest in peace to Steez and Jun', they put the battery inside my back
I honor and remember the deceased Steez and Jun', who motivated and inspired me

Now I'm back to leave a casualty and flee the scene casually
I have returned to deliver destruction and easily escape without concern

I ain't even gotta aim, it's all hip accuracy
I effortlessly hit my targets with precise and instinctive movements

Amen in Jesus name, my niggas still gon' blast for me
Even in the face of danger, my companions will protect me fiercely

Niggas got audacity thinkin' they could come after me
Some individuals have the nerve to believe they can challenge or pursue me

Runnin' this shit on these tracks just like an athlete
I dominate the music industry with the same level of skill and determination as an athlete

Automatic classic when Joey get on a Statik beat
My collaboration with Statik always results in a timeless and exceptional track

All my bars are appreciate with time like a Patek Philippe
Just like a valuable Patek Philippe watch, my lyrics gain value and appreciation over time

Ooh, I been thrivin'
I have been highly successful and flourishing

New Presi' on my wrist, call it Joe Biden
I am wearing a new and expensive presidential watch, likening it to Joe Biden

If I shoot, I never miss, I'ma keep firin'
When I take action or make a move, I always succeed and will continue relentlessly

The flow tirin', I woke up and chose violence
My rap style is exhausting, and I deliberately decided to embrace aggression and hostility

Product of my environment walkin' in my alignment
I am a result of my surroundings and confidently walking my chosen path

I'm the reason why niggas talkin' 'bout retirement
My skills and success are causing others to consider retiring or ending their careers

I'm the reason why niggas often have been silent
My influence and impact force others to remain quiet or unable to respond

Bow down to your highness, Brooklyn's finest
Acknowledge and show respect to me as a superior artist, representing the best of Brooklyn

This flow make 'em think there's something wrong with their sinus
My rap flow is so unique and captivating that it bewilders listeners, causing them to question their senses

I came up from the underground and had to keep climbin'
I emerged from the lesser-known music scene and continuously worked my way up to success

I peep game like Jay, that's why he didn't sign
I have a keen understanding of the music industry, similar to Jay-Z, which is why he did not sign me

And keep the game at bay like the 49ers
I maintain dominance and control over the music industry, similar to how the 49ers protect their territory

47 shit, Steezy lookin' down smilin'
In tribute to the late Steez, I represent our clique (47) proudly, knowing he would be proud

Stars keep alignin' so we gotta keep shinin'
Our fortunes and opportunities continue to align, and we must continue to stand out and succeed

I'm rare cut like a motherfuckin' pink diamond
I am unique and exceptionally rare, just like a valuable pink diamond

The irony, I been the one you niggas underminin', nigga
Ironically, I have been the target of others' attempts to weaken or belittle me

This is somethin' to remind 'em
This serves as a reminder to those who doubted or underestimated me

Hidden in the rough, where you find 'em
My talent and potential were initially unrecognized, only to be discovered in unexpected places

Shine so bright that it just might blind 'em
My brilliance and success are so intense that they might overwhelm or dazzle others

Your favorite rappers wouldn't be enough if you combined them niggas
Even if you were to combine the skills and talent of all your favorite rappers, they would still fall short compared to me

No tolerance for violators, that won't fly haters (feel)
I have zero tolerance for those who disrespect or challenge me, they won't be successful

Had enough of y'all fakers, took a hiatus (feel)
I grew tired of dealing with fake individuals, so I took a break from their presence

Got floor to ceiling windows with the view of skyscrapers (tell you, baby)
I have luxurious accommodations with beautiful views of tall buildings and urban landscapes

Something in the way you make me feel
There is a certain quality about the way you affect me emotionally

Feel, feel
The feeling intensifies

And it makes me feel real good
It brings me immense joy and satisfaction
