Yeah, ha, what are y′all?

Yeah, used to think my takeoff time was a delayed departureTrust the journey, if you rush it you gon' make it harder

You can lose your place when you try to flip the pages farther

700,000 for an hour, that′s the latest offer

I put the work in, had to earn my credentials

I wrote the book on independence, I'm on my third presidential

It's essential I shut up, that′s what y′all think, right?

But standing down never really sit right

Big fight comin' up, me versus myself

Thе People′s Champion, there ain't no reversing my belt

I keep on earning wealth

Ain′t no tellin' where the roof is

Stayin′ on the straight and narrow, curving rapper's muses

Limits are illusions and I'm Bradley Cooper

Watching Trae drop 40 court-side, so close I could alley-oop ya

Haven′t taken Uber in years, all my drivers wear suits

Every drink is a cheers, predicted this I′m a seer

Can't operate outta fear, I choose optimism

Universe be talkin′, so I gotta listen

Tryna work it out with her, she end up in a squat position

Me, I'm doin′ hip thrusts, then I get my sucked

Ripping up the script of the industry's guidelines and rules

They don′t want me in the game, just sidelines and boos

Lotta closet applauses

How come all the workers keep on talkin' like bosses?

I'm a star though regardless of the narrative

If you don′t own your music, I′m not hearin' comparisons

Man, this shit is embarrassing

I don′t care who the hottest are

If you cannot sell out an arena by yourself in America

And somewhere overseas, you are not a star

Overlooking me doesn't change shit

I′m the modern day Prince, face it

I'm free, look at me, look how easy I breathe

Your career′s on life support, it's clear you need the machine

I rage against it, killing in the name of independence

Which threatens the Evil Empire, so respect is obligatory

This a classic like A Christmas Story

Watching these adults swim upstream to get streams is comedy like Rick and Morty

Sometimes I feel like "fuck 'em all"

′Cause if a Forbes list cash king, six times Platinum

Twenty plaques in arenas packed in isn′t a star, then what are y'all?

′Cause if a Forbes list cash king, six times Platinum

For real
