WALE/MIGUEL Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I am here to take nothin' and formulate a hit.
I'm concoct awesome, flawless, pause
I ain't lettin' niggas catch up, nigga I'm playin' possum.
Now pause if the off switch was gone there
Them haters don't like me, it's gon' be a long year.
I'm sittin' on green, feel I need a lawn chair,
Miseducated by record labels I elevated to a higher level
so I am better than any hater
and you know how I get, embody my hip-hop shit
Personify greats or these label niggas is on my dick.
Oh how they lean, I'ma go where I please
Pimp stroll where I please, niggas know who I plead nigga
What you know about that, what you know about that
What you know about that, prolly know me from the rap.
Roll on my feet when I'm rollin' through the streets
?? all day ?? nigga
What you know about that, what you know about that
what you know about that, pro'ly know me from the rap
I am the leader of a revolution, the betterment of music
is embedded in they head and chest, and the entire unit.
It's by pupils to require truth, and God do it
Cause fiction ain't legit so we deny tunin' in.
Yeah, I spit with pride when I'm doin' it
Doin' for the city though, I'm tire of this music shit.
And you know how it be, they hatin' on a G
Don't pay for radios spins, my city lovin' me.
Niggas loggin' on cus they young boss talk of me
And ya'll song is so awful, please see
and you know how I get, embody my hip-hop shit
Personify greats so these label niggas is on my dick.
Oh how they lean, I'ma go where I please
Pimp stroll where I please, Niggas know who I plead nigga
What you know about that, what you know about that
What you know about that, pro'ly know me from the rap.
Roll on my feet when I'm rollin' through the streets
?? all day ?? nigga
What you know about that, what you know about that
what you know about that, pro'ly know me from the rap
Do it for the city and prove it for the county
If forms happen to rap game, nigga no mouth piece.
I'm earl-lacker, the backpack of verse thrasher,
bred from the huddle, the coach stretchin' his first backup.
I'm a monster, blitz when I want to
Bomb like lip gloss, bitch I am awesome.
The storm you've been warned of is on and upon us
Flow so potent it penetrates the armor.
Defication of all of, definition of raw, a star
Who gon' make it, my reputation is marvelous.
And you know how I get, embody my hip-hop shit
Personify greats or these label niggas is on my dick.
Oh how they lean, I'ma go where I please
Pimp stroll where I please, Niggas know who I plead nigga
What you know about that, what you know about that
What you know about that, prolly know me from the rap
Roll on my feet when I'm rollin' through the streets
?? all day ?? nigga
What you know about that, what you know about that
what you know about that, prolly know me from the rap
