[00:00.81]I put my heart and soul in this game, I'm feelin' drained
[00:03.37]Unappreciated, unalleviated
[00:05.99]Tired of comin' up short, fuck abbreviated
[00:08.37]Want my whole name spelled out, my own pain spilled out
[00:11.33]No pain, no gain, I blow brains, Cobain
[00:14.14]Throw flames, Liu Kang, the coach ain't help out, so I call my own shots
[00:18.52]I'm David Blaine, I'm breakin' out of my own box, you stay the same
[00:22.26]But homie if you change, man you change for the better
[00:24.84]Back when Martin King had a thing for Coretta
[00:27.62]Wonder if she seen all the dreams he was dreamin'
[00:30.39]Did she have a clue of all the schemes he was schemin'
[00:33.01]Still loved her just enough to put up with the cheatin'
[00:35.73]Must go by and only see him for a weekend
[00:38.40]I say a prayer, hope my girl ain't leavin'
[00:41.47]We all got angels, we all got demons
[00:44.87]As you fall through the club
[00:46.51]Bad bitches down to do all the above
[00:49.24]Money comes fast so bein' hungry don't last
[00:51.54]Till you look in the mirror and you saw who you was
[00:54.91]Cole World, it couldn't be more clearer
[00:57.27]The time is now, it couldn't be more herer
[00:59.84]My reign gonna last like 3-4 eras
[01:02.51]Say hello to the real, I can be your hero
[01:05.47]
[01:06.15]Hey, I'ma put us all on the map
[01:08.20]Gone and I ain't lookin' back
[01:09.94]I knew they gon' feel it like they tank on E
[01:12.59]I promise baby, you can bet the bank on me
[01:15.35]Cause ain't nobody tell me why there ain't gonna be no more
[01:18.76]Thinking I'ma fall? Don't be so sure
[01:22.48]I wish somebody made guidelines
[01:25.31]On how to get up off the sidelines
[01:26.59]
[01:26.88]Up in first class, laugh even though it's not funny
[01:29.47]See a white man wonder how the fuck I got money
[01:32.13]While he sit at coach, hate to see me walk past em
[01:35.04]Young black pants sag, headphones blastin'
[01:37.99]Know what he askin', "How did he manage?"
[01:40.35]"With all the cards against him, he used them to his advantage!"
[01:43.16]Slang we be speakin' probably soundin' like Spanish
[01:45.76]Then I fuck they heads up when a nigga show manners
[01:48.54]Some New York niggas thought it was funny callin' us Bama
[01:51.32]Laughin' at the grammar cause they didn't understand us
[01:53.90]Must've thought we slow, but little do they know
[01:56.07]I came up in here to take advantage of that shit y'all take for granted
[01:59.63]Opportunity that I would kill for
[02:02.15]Lookin' at rappers like "what the fuck you got a deal for?!"
[02:04.52]When I was assed out with my funds low
[02:07.56]It's nice to know I had the whole world at my front door
[02:10.60]
[02:10.91]Hey, I'ma put us all on the map
[02:12.77]Gone and I ain't lookin' back
[02:14.67]I knew they gon' feel it like they tank on E
[02:17.27]I promise baby, you can bet the bank on me
[02:20.04]Cause ain't nobody tell me why there ain't gonna be no more
[02:23.47]Thinking I'ma fall? Don't be so sure
[02:27.27]I wish somebody made guidelines
[02:29.94]On how to get up off the sidelines
[02:32.27]
[02:32.47]I made it to the Roc, even though they tried to box me out
[02:34.57]I got the key to the game, they tried to lock me out
[02:37.12]But what they don't understand is this is all plan
[02:39.83]It's a bigger picture and you can't photoshop me out
[02:42.71]Some nigga ask me why Jay never shout me out
[02:45.12]Like I'm supposed to give a fuck
[02:46.55]Don't you know that I be out in France
[02:48.23]Where the fans throw they hands like Pacquiao
[02:50.81]Not cause my looks, cause my hooks could knock Rocky out
[02:53.36]And my lines is designed from the heart
[02:55.41]Young Simba been a lion from the start
[02:57.47]Dumb niggas, y'all been lyin' from the start
[02:59.76]My life's like a move, truly
[03:01.75]And these niggas is dyin' for the part
[03:03.71]But, you'll never play me like LeBron vs. Jordan
[03:06.51]Twenty years, wonder who they gon' say was more importan'
[03:09.19]Both changed the game, came through and made a lane
[03:11.64]Who's to say that who's greater, all we know, they ain't the same
[03:14.19]
[03:14.62]Hey, I'ma put us all on the map
[03:17.23]Gone and I ain't lookin' back
[03:19.37]I knew they gon' feel it like they tank on E
[03:22.75]I promise baby, you can bet the bank on me
[03:24.87]Cause ain't nobody tell me why there ain't gonna be no more
[03:28.20]Thinking I'ma fall? Don't be so sure
[03:31.85]I wish somebody made guidelines
[03:34.67]On how to get up off the sidelines
