Lyrics

[Intro]
Settle down, settle down, y'all
I'd like to take the time to introduce to the stage, this new young brother
I like this brother
He go by the name of Soul Burger (Ooh)
Cue the sermon
My daughter Carson just said "Dada" for the first time
And Cali tryna get up and run track (Ha-ha)
Ayy, crazy (Man)
Steady, are you ready?
[Verse 1]
I like to call my self the God of rap
And all of y'all should call me that (What's goin' on?)
I hit the studio and talk like that
Leave that motherfucker and feel like a fraud
In all honesty, I believe, the truth will set you free (Steady, are you ready?)
Am I an inmate? I got secrets I'ma die with (What's goin' on?)
Am I the greatest or an ingrate?
Am I a victim or a villain with a moral compass? (Steady, are you ready?)
Did my dirt all by my lonely, no accomplice (What's goin' on?)
So when this shit hits the fan
I'll be sippin' Apothic Red, but I won't be winin' (Steady, are you ready?)
Huh, no boo-hoo's
More like BeBe and CeCe, church on the move (What's goin' on?)
Right or wrong, my faith was written way before I started writin' (Steady, are you ready?)
This ain't a verse, this an excerpt from a séance
Ain't really confrontational, but I crave chaos (What's goin' on?)
Mayday, mayday
Melee, melee (Steady, are you ready?)
Ayy, way off the chain like a jeweler's scale
Fuck all this gold on me (What's goin' on?)
No (Are you ready?)
It ain't hard to tell like Sonic's little homie (Steady, are you ready?)
Got my soul glowing despite the darkness I harness
You'd think these silver linings were straps that keep me from falling (What's goin' on?)
Huh, rhyming like I'm flying with angel wings, I just be crawlin'
Steady, are you ready?
Jesus Christ, am I designed to compete or am I just appallin'? (What's going on? Are you ready?)
(Peter and Paul like, you know, that was really crazy, look)
These days, I rather work out my flaws than flex on y'all (Steady, are you ready?)
A little something's better than a whole lot of nothin' at all (What's goin' on?)
Aw, well, hope you read between the lines like when we be spelling wrong
Steady, are you ready?
Hahaha, spells, see what I'm saying?
What's goin' on?
Ayy, ayo, Arnie, can I, can I keep it going?
I'm down, take a look around
[Intro]
(However do you want me?) Uh
(However do you need me?) Mic check, one two, mic check
(However do you want me?) Turn me up in this bitch
(However do you need me?)
Can I, can I talk my shit? Can I keep it going real quick?
(However do you want me?)
[Verse 2]
I am broke, I am on fucking drugs
Don't own shit, I'm paying rent for my babies mom
I take a 7.62 for Top Dawg
I did jump off a bridge on Del Amo Boulevard
I'm blessed, but question why God would have mercy on a junkie
Biggest lie I ever told is that it ain't about the money
Hopped out the rabbit hole, but now I'm really trippin'
I'm still standing here screaming, "Fuck the whole system"
Couldn't care any less if you judge me, bitch
You don't know what the fuck I did for this shit
And I don't know much, but I do know this
I got the game in a headlock, I'm like Draymond
Yo, you think you fuckin' with the squad just a little bit? (No)
Dream on and then apply for your Nembership
Lil' bitch, shit ain't been the same without Armon
Shit we was on, you would've thought we was out our mind
Couple of tickin' time bombs, don't step on our mine
But he the reason that me and Danny spinned the block
We lost Popeye, but Billy with mommy and Belly with Nas
So Ka ain't never really left my side
Now we just a fusion like Trunks and Gohan
Huh, Huey and Riley combined, knowledge and nines
[Outro]
(Do you want me?)
Hehehe (However do you need me?)
Bang
(I believe in—) Huh, keep tellin' you, do many
(There's nowhere to run)
(And I know there's no, already things I)
(I saved my name)
(My name's stayed there) Mother-fuckin'
(How, ever do you wrong?)
