Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Timothy, I took your place (I took your place)
Timothy, 'cause such a waste ('Cause such a waste)
Timothy, we found your spaceship
Timothy, it's the farthest you've ever flown
[Verse 2]
Hey, put your lighters up
Put your lighters up y'all, y'all, y'all, y'all, y'all
Y'all put your lighters up
This the Timothy song if you don't know about me
[Verse 3]
Yeah, they call me Tim, VA's phenomenon
I kill 'em all winter, until the summer come
From just another name, all the way to number one
And I'm simply the best when it's all said and done
Remember when me and Magoo was tryna make a mill?
Well, we did and years later, we got it still
Gave you my bio, Under Construction 1 & 2
Hundred percent genuine, that was from me to you
I'm makin' moves while they ridicule
I'm like a warm summer breeze
In the swimmin' pool, I'm cool
I never kept it basic, I been so many places
Been gettin' money since them honeys had them small faces
So many little me's, I can hear small traces
But I just ignore it, 'cause I'm too big for it
And I can hear 'em screamin', screamin', screamin'
[Verse 4]
Timothy, where have you been? (Yeah, yeah)
It's not what it seems, but it is (Yeah, yeah)
Timothy, where have you been? (Yeah, yeah)
She cried in the kitchen to let you go
(Screamin') Timothy, where have you been?
[Verse 5]
I been in Athens, Georgia, by the way of Bubba Sparxxx
When the nights was bright and all the days was dark
But now they all bright, everything is alright
If you assume my life is wonderful, then y'all right
I got a bad wife, three beautiful kids
I make the world dance
Yeah, look what I done did
Hits for Jay-Z, Nelly Furtado
Catch up, y'all slow, escargot
Nelly did fourteen mill', where's Fargo?
I brought an airplane, **** I need a car for?
Ask Justin Timberlake is Timbaland great?
Y'all gotta deal with me, no handshake
Stand up, ****, rather have a stand off
With the law before I let 'em say I ran off
And I can hear 'em screamin', screamin', screamin'
[Verse 6]
Timothy, where have you been? (Yeah, yeah)
It's not what it seems, but it is (Yeah, yeah)
Timothy, where have you been? (Yeah, yeah)
She cried in the kitchen to let you go
(Screamin') Timothy, where have you been?
[Verse 7]
Ay, some say I went away, but really I never left
They wonder where I been, but they can never guess
I been around the world, here to the other side
And I successfully achieved what all those others tried
Carry my city on my back like a crucifix
For more than a decade 'cause I can do this shit
A lot of people want my spot, but I don't hesitate
The track may but my legacy won't arpeggiate
I stand strong, everything I put my hands on
Me and Mister I be, 'cause ain't no I in team
'Cause I can hear 'em sayin', sayin', sayin'
[Verse 8]
Timothy, where have you been? (Yeah, yeah)
It's not what it seems, but it is (Yeah, yeah)
Timothy, where have you been? (Yeah, yeah)
She cried in the kitchen to let you go
(Screamin') Timothy, where have you been?
[Verse 9]
Timothy, where have you been?
She cried in the kitchen to let you go
Where have you been?
(Timothy, where have you been?)
