Crystal Ball
Mike Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Uh it's M-to-the-IZZ-I
O-o-o-ooooh

Yo it’s M-to-the-IZZ-I, don't forget the K-E
The money where I reside
Don't forget to pay me at best I’ma wig out
Niggas couldn't train me
I dreamt about a big house
Lowkey on the daily
Remember we would sit out
Showed me where they paid green
You flexing just to stick out
I flex because of great genes
Suppressive of a big smile
Why I had to shave clean
And let a ray beam, forget I been a bit wild
Triumph in my latе teens
Treasuring my mid now
That's what hate bring, uh
If I project it'd bе a missile
Persistent as your aim be
The message never get 'round
I'm sitting with the same peace
Regret it if I let down
But shit you gotta change speed

Bent I'ma slizzide, fresher than an AC
So death by my sizzide
Why I gotta pay respects to the skizz-i?
Paranoia chase me
It's M-to-the-IZZ-I, don’t forget the K-E
Money where I reside, don’t forget to pay me
Bent I'ma slizzide, fresher than an AC
So death by my sizzide
Why I gotta pay respects to the skizz-i?
Paranoia chase me





Know it’s M-to-the-IZZ-I
Don't forget the K-E

Overall Meaning

In Mike's song "Crystal Ball," he introduces himself with the catchy line, "Uh it's M-to-the-IZZ-I, o-o-o-ooooh." This is a confident declaration of his identity and sets the tone for the rest of the song. He emphasizes the importance of acknowledging him and his presence, demanding that he be paid for his talents and contributions. The mention of money where he resides suggests that he has established himself in a position of power and success, and he expects to be compensated accordingly.


Mike reflects on his journey and the challenges he has faced along the way. He mentions dreaming about a big house while still maintaining a low profile on a daily basis. This juxtaposition of ambition and humility highlights the balance he strives for in life. He credits someone who showed him the value of financial success ("showed me where they paid green"), contrasting it with those who flaunt their wealth just to stand out socially ("you flexing just to stick out"). Mike, on the other hand, flexes as a result of his own inherit greatness, suggesting that his success is genuine and not just for show.


Throughout the song, Mike acknowledges the pressure and scrutiny he faces. He mentions having to shave clean and hide his wild side, suggesting that he must conform to certain expectations to maintain his image. He has triumphed in his late teens but understands the importance of cherishing his present state as well ("treasuring my mid now"). The mention of hate brings regret, indicating that he feels the weight of disappointment but is determined to evolve and learn ("shit you gotta change speed"). Essentially, Mike affirms that he will continue to evolve, growing stronger and wiser, regardless of the opinions or challenges that come his way.

Oooooooh

[Verse]
Yo
It’s M-to-the-IZZ-I, don't forget the K-E
The money where I reside, don't forget to pay me
At best I’ma wig out, niggas couldn't train me
I dreamt about a big house lowkey on the daily
Remember we would sit out, showed me where they paid green
You flexing just to stick out, I flex because of great genes
Suppressive of a big smile, why I had to shave clean
And let a ray beam, forget I been a bit wild
Triumph in my latе teens, treasuring my mid now
That's what hate bring, uh
If I project it'd bе a missile, persistent as your aim be
The message never get 'round, I'm sitting with the same peace
Regret it if I let down, but shit you gotta change speed

[Chorus]
Bent I'ma slizzide, fresher than an AC
So death by my sizzide
Why I gotta....pay respects to the skizz-i
Paranoia chase me
It's M-to-the-IZZ-I, don’t forget the K-E
Money where I reside, don’t forget to pay me
Bent I'ma slizzide, fresher than an AC
So death by my sizzide
Why I gotta pay respects to the skizz-i
Paranoia chase me
