Late 808

Don’t kill a rose
Before it could bloom
Fly, baby, fly
Out the cocoon

So can I get a window seat?
Don’t want nobody, next to me
I just want a ticket outta town
A look around, and a safe touch down
Can I get a window seat?
Don’t want nobody, next to me
I just want a chance to fly
A chance to cry, and a long bye

Beep beep, who got the keys to the Jeep, vroom
I’m driving to the beach
Top down, loud sounds, see my peeps
Give them pounds, now look who it be

[instrumental]

I got the Grey Poupon, you been warned
‘Cause all beef return well done filet mignon

Hah
Pack in the mail, it’s gone (Uh)
She like how I smell, cologne (Yeah)
I just signed a deal, I’m on
Yeah, yeah
I go where I want, I’m good (Good)
Play if you want, let’s do it (Ha)
I’m a young CEO, Suge (Yeah)
Yeah, yeah

Dranking all this Act’, it got my vision real blurry (21)

Yeah, I couldn’t get a bill paid
You couldn’t buy the real thing
I was stayin’ up at yo’ place
Tryin’ to figure out the whole thing
I saw people doin’ things
Almost gave up on the music thing
But we all so spoiled now
More life, more everything
Must have never had your phone tapped
All that yappin’ on the phone shit
You must really love the road life
All that never comin’ home shit

If I told you I wanted to talk to you
You know, you think I’m tryna holla at you
And maybe I am but
You wouldn’t hear me out anyway’s would you?

Jamaica we need a way
Tell mi Mill
A how mi youth fi survive?
How mi fi send him go school in this time
If mi don’t make money?
Di politician come pon tv
A show we this big pretty smile
Nuttin’ nuh funny (nuh funny, nuh funny)

Real hot girl shit
Yeah, I’m in my bag, but I’m in his too
And that’s why every time you see me, I got some new shoes
Ah, mwah, ayy, look

Someone said they left together
I ran out the door to get her
She was holding hands with Trevor
Not the greatest feeling ever
Said, “Pull yourself together
You should try your luck with Heather”
Then I heard they slept together
Oh, the less I know the better
The less I know the better

Ass ass ass ass ass
Ass ass ass ass ass ass ass ass
Ass ass ass ass ass ass ass ass
Stop! Now make that mother****** hammer time like
Go stupid, go stupid, go stupid

Is it easier to stay? Is it easier to go?
I don’t wanna know, oh
But I know that I’m never, ever gonna change
And you know that you’re always gonna stay the same
Is it easier to stay? Is it easier to go?
I don’t wanna know, oh (I don’t wanna know)
But I know that I’m never, ever gonna change
And you know you don’t want it any other way

Let it begin, let Adam in
Step one, original sin
Underneath the leaves, Adam found Eve
Both of them found something sweet under the apple tree
Then it was over, roads divide
Step two, learning how to lie
Let me ask a question to present day
How the hell did Eve end up with all the damn blame?
All the damn blame

Way back on the radio dial
The fire got lit inside a bright-eyed child
Every note just wrapped around his soul
From steel guitars to Memphis, all the way to rock and roll

Oh, I can hear ’em playin’
I can hear the ringin’ of a beat up ol’ guitar
Oh, I can hear ’em singin’
“Keep on dreamin’, even if it breaks your heart”

Another summer day
Has come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home, mmm

May be surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel all alone
I just wanna go home
Oh, I miss you, you know

Scars and tattoos, got ’em head to toe
I was born to raise hell, ’til it’s time to go
Never feared another man, never ran from a problem
Then my daddy wasn’t there, momma didn’t raise a coward

I’ve been in a building sitting in a chair for an hour now
I’m out of it
Think I’ll get a drink
Then I finally play a beat I like
And dance uncontrollably

All my life, been grindin’ all my life
Sacrificed, hustled, paid the price
Want a slice, got to roll the dice
That’s why, all my life, I been grindin’ all my life
All my life, been grindin’ all my life
Sacrificed, hustled, paid the price
Want a slice, got to roll the dice
That’s why, all my life, I been grindin’ all my life

Collect the hundred dollar bills like a souvenir
Carbon 15 hit me, Jeezy want a zip
And Weezy gon’ buy everything except a brick
See I can run a check up, and you just run your lip
See I can run a check up, and you just run your lip
I can run a check up, and you just run your lip
See I can run a check up, and you just run your lip, uh
You ain’t runnin’ shit

Who thought that we would go this far?
Matter fact, who thought that we would live this long?

Double up
Three or four times, I ain’t tellin no lies, I just run it up
Never let a hard time humble us
Do-do-double up
I ain’t tellin’ no lies, I just (yeah)
I ain’t tellin’ no lies, I just
Five, four, three two
That’s time, I got, to you
That money, my dreams, come true
My life, in diamonds, who knew?
Who knew? Who knew?

Runnin’ out of time, runnin’ out of time, runnin’ out of time
Runnin’ out of time to make you love me
Runnin’ out of time, runnin’ out of time
To make you love me

Waiting for the break of day
Searching for something to say
Flashing lights against the sky
Giving up I close my eyes
Sitting cross-legged on the floor
Twenty five or six to four

Last time that I checked, it was five chains on my neck
It was no smut on my rep
Last time that I checked, I was sellin’ zones in the set
Make a quarter mill no sweat
Last time that I checked, I’m the street’s voice out west
Legendary self-made progress
Last time that I checked, first get the money then respect
Then the power, and the hoes come next
Last time that I checked

I bomb atomically, Socrates’ philosophies and hypotheses
Can’t define how I be dropping these mockeries
Lyrically perform armed robbery
Flee with the lottery, possibly they spotted me
Battle-scarred Shogun, explosion when my pen hits tremendous
Ultraviolet shine blind forensics
I inspect you through the future see millennium
Killa Beez sold fifty gold, sixty platinum
Shackling the masses with drastic rap tactics
Graphic displays melt the steel like blacksmiths
Black Wu jackets, Queen Beez ease the guns in
Rumble with patrolmen, tear gas laced the function
Heads by the score take flight incite a war
Chicks hit the floor, die hard fans demand more
Behold the bold soldier, control the globe slowly
Proceeds to blow, swinging swords like Shinobi
Stomp grounds and pound footprints in solid rock
Wu got it locked, performing live on your hottest block

Now its a possibility, that I can come from nothing to having it all
Now its a possibility, that I ain’t gonna have it all and fall
But I stand tall
I’ve been down for so long, you really want a chance so
I done paid my dues, my dues, my dues
I got to go, up to the top

From the first time the doctor placed you in my arms
I knew I’d meet death before I’d let you meet harm
Although questions arose in my mind, would I be man enough
Against wrong, choose right and be standing up?

I’ll face it with a grin, I’m never giving in

[Instrumental]

Used to not be allowed in the building
But now we on the rooftop

Trust in me in all you do
Have the faith I have in you
Love will see us through, if only you trust in me
Why don’t you, you trust me?

The youth are starting to change
Are you starting to change, are you?
Together, together, together, together
Together, together, together
The youth are starting to change
Are you starting to change, are you?
Together, together, together, together
Together, together, together
