On One
The Game Lyrics

I snatched the mic off LL's arm and strangled Canibus with it
I caused chaos in the rap industry by using LL Cool J's microphone and killing Canibus with it.

Sit with the body for seven days and just smoke cannabis with it
I showed no remorse for my actions and instead chose to spend seven days smoking weed with the dead body.

I told Logic, logically, I shouldn't be on this with him
I acknowledged that I am too disrespectful to collaborate with Logic and was being honest about it.

The black sheep, mmm-hmm, and the G.O.A.T., mmm-hmm
I am both an outcast and the greatest of all time in the rap industry.

Before that ship sails, I tip scales and man the boat
Before it's too late, I take control and ensure that everything is balanced and under my management.

Fish scale weigh ten whales and, um, handle dope
I am involved in the drug trade and deal with large quantities of drugs.

Kyrie and the pope, mmm-hmm, poetic justice
I reference Kyrie Irving and the Pope as examples of poetic justice.

2Pac, Maya Angelou, let us deconstruct it
I reference Tupac and Maya Angelou and suggest that we analyze and break down their work.

Take the ass shots out of hip-hop and, um, reconstruct it
I suggest removing superficial elements from hip-hop and rebuilding it to focus on more meaningful content.

Give me your Slick Rick chains and Rakim's beeper buzzin'
I want the iconic jewelry and accessories of legendary rappers like Slick Rick and Rakim.

Give me the velour sweatsuit on Stillmatic and Ether bussin'
I want the style and swagger of Nas as seen in the music video for "Ether," a diss track aimed at Jay-Z.

Give me the Annie sample on Hard Knock Life and the deep discussions
I want the soulful and thought-provoking elements of Jay-Z's "Hard Knock Life" and his discussions with notable figures like Malcolm X and Muhammad Ali.

That Malcolm had with Cassius Clay, Same Cooke, and Jim Brown
I reference an iconic meeting between Malcolm X, Cassius Clay (Muhammad Ali), Sam Cooke, and Jim Brown that took place in 1964.

I'm them now, especially when the hotel lights get dimmed down in Miami, whoa, shit
I am carrying on the legacy of iconic figures like Malcolm X and Muhammad Ali, especially when I am in Miami and the lights are low.

Ayy, I could give a fuck about this rap shit, homie
Logic doesn't care about the rap industry.

Logic finally out the deal but the shit feel phony
Even though Logic is now free of his record deal, he still feels disillusioned with the industry.

Kind of feel like I'm back in the basement again
Logic feels like he's back where he started, working on music alone in his basement.

I make a masterpiece easy like I'm tracin' it in
Logic finds it easy to create masterpieces in his music.

Cash is dead, I took my money to the crypto
Logic has stopped dealing with physical money and instead invests in cryptocurrency.

Blast the feds and now I'm reloadin' the clip though
Logic has had conflict with law enforcement and is now armed and ready to defend himself if necessary.

Flow so ill, that shit was born in the triage
Logic's flow is so impressive that it seems to have been born out of a critical or emergency situation.

I got more tracks than heroin addicts
Logic has an extensive discography with many more tracks than most artists.

When my son goes to sleep, he uses his sound machine
Logic uses a sound machine to help his son sleep.

But as a child, through my teens, all I heard was automatics
Growing up, Logic was exposed to the sounds of gunfire and violence in his neighborhood.

That was just the lifestyle, no way you could combat it
Living in a violent neighborhood was simply a way of life and there was no way to escape it.

They said I couldn't, said I won't
People doubted Logic's abilities and said he wouldn't succeed.

I think I'm rappin' like I don't give a fuck 'cause I don't
Logic raps with a carefree attitude because he genuinely doesn't care about what others think.

Got a million platinum plaques and billions in streams
Logic has sold millions of records and has billions of streams on his music.

I used to think this shit was the definition of dreams
Logic used to believe that commercial success in the music industry was the ultimate goal and the definition of success.

Now I understand that none of that is what it seems
Logic has come to realize that commercial success is not everything and there is more to life.

It won't fulfill you, but it'll fill you full up off emptiness
Commercial success may provide a temporary feeling of fulfillment but ultimately leaves a person feeling empty inside.

If that's the only reason that you doin' it
If someone is only pursuing commercial success in music, then they are missing out on the true meaning and value of the art form.

Well, I get it, and I'm still here doin' it
Even though Logic has realized the limitations of commercial success, he still remains a successful and active artist in the music industry.

Just me and my fleet, y'all, we'll defeat y'all
Logic and his team will overcome any obstacles and defeat their enemies.

Livin' how we're livin', not at all for you
Logic and his team live their lives their own way, not to please others.

Finally on my feet, y'all, been on the beach, y'all
Logic has overcome challenges and is now standing tall, enjoying the pleasures of life like being on the beach.

Lookin' at the sky and the stars above
Taking time to appreciate the beauty of the world and the universe.
