REDLIGHT
NGHTMRE & A$AP Ferg Lyrics

I feel like I'm a giant but I'm 5'8"
Even though I'm not tall, I feel powerful.

I feel more defiant when y'all hate
When people criticize me, it just motivates me more to succeed.

Y'all the only niggas runnin' in the car race
Everyone else is just running in circles while I'm taking the lead.

Serve a nigga with the butter like parquet
I'll serve you up so smooth, like butter melting on a hot surface.

Rap niggas all soft, so strange
Other rappers are weak, and it's weird to me.

I'm a little bit of Pac, bit of Kanye
My style is a mix of Tupac and Kanye West - I'm that great.

You a little bit of Fox and Beyoncé
You're not really a great collaborator - you're more like Megan Fox doing a duet with Beyoncé.

Any beef come to me get sauteed
If you come at me with any problems, I'll fry you up with ease.

Yeah, the fake ones runnin' with the hard face
Those fake people always try to look tough, but they're really just scared.

Bet that pump to your tongue make your heart race
My weapon pointed at your face will make your heart race with fear.

And I hope you take it all the wrong way
I'm not afraid to be misunderstood - in fact, I welcome it.

Leave you slumped near the pump, near the bar place
I'll leave you dead on the ground by the gas station or bar where you thought you were safe.

This red light put your ass in a dark place
This dangerous situation will leave you in a bad place - you're in trouble.

Celebration, coronation
It's time to celebrate my achievements and recognize me as a king.

No debatin', crown me king, I'm tired of waitin'
No more discussion - I deserve to be king and I'm not waiting for anyone's approval.

People's champ, I gotta face it
I'm the one everyone looks up to and admires - I have to acknowledge that.

You disgracin', people sensin' that you're fakin'
You're only bringing shame upon yourself because everyone can tell you're not authentic.

I'm the Lord, I might go Satan
I have so much power, I could even be compared to the devil himself.

With the flow and take 'em out, annihilate 'em
I'll destroy my enemies with my impressive style and skills.

No mistakin', new sensation
It's crystal clear that I'm bringing something new and exciting to the table.

Hood Pope pullin' up to rule the nation
As a respected leader, I'll be coming to take over and lead the nation forward.

And I came a long way from the stash house
I've come a long way from my shady past and I'm proud of my progress.

Now I switch spots like a Dalmatian
I move around so much and have so many different things going on, I'm like a quick, nimble dalmatian dog.

Little kid played by the crack house
I grew up in a rough environment, but I'm not letting that hold me back anymore.

And I got my moms out when my ass paid
I was able to rescue my mother from a tough situation thanks to my own success and hard work.

Gotta understand when I black out
People need to know that when I lose control, things can get really dangerous.

I don't give a fuck 'bout a wack hater
I'm not letting anyone who doesn't matter bring me down with negative opinions.

I don't give a fuck 'bout no rap favor
I don't need anyone's help or favors to make it big - I'll do it on my own.

Need to bow to the Lord and say all your prayers
People need to recognize my greatness and understand that they should be praying to me, like a god.

You a trill nigga, get your muthafuckin' hands up
You're a real, authentic person - show your appreciation and raise your hands up in acknowledgement.

You a real nigga, get your muthafuckin' bands up
If you're really about that life, then start stacking up serious money.
