(2) Steve Lacy (July 23, 1934 – June 4, 2004), born Steven Norman Lackritz in New York City, was an American jazz saxophonist and composer recognized as one of the important players of soprano saxophone. Coming to prominence in the 1950s as a progressive dixieland musician, Lacy went on to a long and prolific career. He worked extensively in experimental jazz and to a lesser extent in free improvisation, but Lacy's music was typically melodic and tightly structured. Lacy also became a highly distinctive composer, with compositions often built out of little more than a single questioning phrase, repeated several times.
After Lacy was diagnosed with cancer in August 2003, he continued playing and teaching until weeks before his death on June 4, 2004 at the age of 69.

Steve Lacy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Pullin' so much work, I check in like a 9 to 5
They been talkin' shit about like how I do it live
I can't even lie, I think that was really hard
Rolex on a wrist, watch
Bitch, I'm Chris rock
All these niggas always hating me
I should have a show on Netflix
That they friends watch
Copped the deal and I went reckless
I'm a big boss like I'm Rick Ross
Yeah man, you niggas already know what the fuck going on, man
I'm lying
Apollo 21
You fuck niggas gotta catch up, man
This shit over
The shit is over!
Steve Lacy
Bitch, call me number two 'cause really, I think I'm the shilly
You be talking 'bout that money, money you don't get
You be talking 'bout the pussy, pussy you don't hit
You be sucking dick, you be, you be sucking dillyck
Apollo double-X-I, fuck a double-X-L

The lyrics to Steve Lacy's song "Outro Freestyle/4ever" are a boastful and confident declaration of his talent and success. Lacy begins by saying that he is the only star, capable of shining bright and shooting up light before they fall. He then compares his work ethic to that of a 9 to 5 job, putting in a lot of effort to achieve success. Despite criticisms of his live performances, Lacy acknowledges that it was a challenge but feels like he succeeded.
Continuing his self-aggrandizing, Lacy calls himself "number two" and confidently dismisses those who like to talk about money and sex without actually having it or doing it. He adds that he is as hot as if he were from Hell, completing his image as a confident and powerful artist. The repetition of "outro" at the end of the song serves as a reminder that Lacy is owning the last word, and that this is the end of anyone else's criticism.

Soy el más enfermo allí, debería haberlos dejado antes de que cayeran
