SARA-J Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's funny how rap became something to do
And I'm up
Now it's twenty four hours
Till the champagne hours
And the world is ours
Yeah look
We working daily cuz lately
They seem to hate me
You calling my hand is heavy
Im raising
The stakes is deadly
Stop stalling
My team is ready
We round table discussing
Them other guys they bluffing
And I done became the button
So don't push me
Cuz we could go hand for hand
This apart of the plan
Try as hard as you can
I never wanted the fame
It just came with my lane
I put my heart in this game
And things ain't never been the same
They be hating and hesitating
Don't tell me cuz shit is blatant
And ima keep on working on them nerves
Till they irking that's for certain
I done closed the curtain
While they center stage
Flip the page you a write out
And I'm the white out
Cut the lights out
Ima go hard like my name was Megatron
But my first name John
And that stand for
Jumping over hating niggas
It's time they get the picture
Cuz ain't nobody quicker
I got the game on lock
Fourth quarter Michael Jordan
Twelve seconds on the clock
Never had to take a cue
We stay on go
I took my shot In the paint
Pay attention don't blink
It went up then it sank

Cuz ain't nobody quicker
Because no one is faster than me
I got the game on lock
I am in control of the situation
Fourth quarter Michael Jordan
Like the legendary basketball player Michael Jordan in the final moments of a game
Twelve seconds on the clock
Only 12 seconds left to take action
Never had to take a cue
I never had to be told what to do
We stay on go
We keep pushing forward
I took my shot In the paint
I took my chance to score in a specific area of the court that's difficult to navigate
Pay attention don't blink
Be alert and don't miss what's happening
It went up then it sank
I took my shot and it was successful then it went down, achieving its objective
