Menace
Monsey Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Killing the beat like a menace
You know I've been serving these kids like it's tennis
I'm speeding through quickly as if I am reckless
I don't really care if you think I won't get this
I've been
Set on my mind
On just taking my time
On writing my rhymes
So they're better than fine
Been so damn focused on this you can't reach me
You can try to but you'll never be leeching
Off me
You can get off me
Ask who on top and it'll be Monsey
You cannot top me
You cannot top me
I've been so hot like a fresh pot of coffee
Kill you with bars I do not need a semi
I am a God and I'm not talking demi
Want my two cents you will not get my pennies
My flow is sick like the throat when it's phlegmy
Back off me we ain't friends
You cannot be like the mans
You cannot meet their demands
That is why you can't contend
Swear I'm an animal
Savage like wolf when I'm killing no Hannibal
Writing so crazy you'd think I'm a cannibal
You think I'm done but I still got my ammo full
You think you've got me but I will not panic though
She hit me up just like every night
You're doubting me you will pay the price
You're looking scared but I'm playing nice
Soon we'll be up and be booking flights
You keep on trying to mess with the kid
But you'll never be like me in the biz
Trying to be just like me
Keep it up I'll snap on you like a grid
I've been making noise in the game
You can try but we ain't the same
Now they're tryna drop my name
Now they want the key to fame
But I cannot stop with all of this drama
Calling me rapper but I don't have a genre
Try me and I will be ending your saga
Soon we'll be resting up inside the plaza
I'm making hits for the headphones
You're doing nothing on iPhone
I have been up in my head zone
Asking for clout I'm like hell no
I am a senior but soon I'll be freshman
I am a senior but I'm teaching lessons
I have been tired of leaving you guessing
Gotta keep going no time to be resting
Killing the beat like a menace
You know I've been serving these kids like it's tennis
I'm speeding through quickly as if I am reckless
I don't really care if you think I won't get this
I've been killing the beat like a menace
You know I've been serving these kids like it's tennis




I'm speeding through quickly as if I am reckless
I don't really care if you think I won't get this
