This one's for you and me
Living out our dreams
We're all right where we should be
With my arms out wide
I open my eyes
And now all I wanna see
Is a sky full of lighters
A sky full of lighters
By the time you hear this
I would of already spiralled up
I would never do nothing to let you cowards
F--k my world up
If I was you
I would duck or get struck
Like lightning fighters
Keep fighting put your lighters up
Point 'em skyward uh
Had a dream
I was king
I woke up still king
This rap game's n****e is mine
For the milking
'till nobody else even f--king feels me 'till it kills me
I swear to god
I'll be the f--king illest in this music
There is or there ever will be
Disagree feel free but from now on
I'm refusing to ever give up
The only thing I ever gave up is using
No more excuses
Excuse me if my head is too big for this building
And pardon me if I'm a c---y p---k
But you c---s are slick
Poppin' s--t on how you flipped ya life around crock of s--t
Who you d---s try'na kid flipped d--k you did opposite
You stayed the same 'cos c--k backwards is still c--k you p---ks
I love it when I tell 'em shove it
'cos it wasn't that long ago
When marshall sat luster lacked flustered
'cos he couldn't cut mustard muster up nothing
Brain fuzzy 'cos he's buzzin'
Woke up from that buzz
And now you wonder why he does it
How he does it
Was it 'cos he had buzzards circling around his head
Waiting for him to drop dead was it
Or was it 'cos them b---hes wrote him off
Little hussy a-- fusses f--k it guess it doesn't matter now does it
What difference it make
What's it take to get it through your thick skulls that this ain't some bulls--t
People don't usually come back this way
From a place that was dark as
I was in just to get to this place
Now let these words be like a switch blade to a haters rib cage
And let it be known that from this day forward
I wanna just say thanks 'cos your hate is what gave me the strength
So let them drinks raise 'cos
I came with five nine but
I feel like I'm six eight
This one's for you and me living out our dreams
We're all right where we should be
With my arms out wide
I open my eyes
And now all
I wanna see is a sky full of lighters
A sky full of lighters
By the time you hear this
I'll probably already be outtie
I advance like going from toting iron to going and
Buying four or five of the homies the iron man
Audi my daddy told me slow down
Boy you goin' to blow it
And I ain't gotta stop the beat a minute
To tell shady I love him
The same way that he did
Dr dre on the
Chronic tell him how real he is
Or how high I am
Or how I would kill for him
For him to know it
I cried plenty tears
My daddy got a bad back so it's only right that
I'll write 'till he can march right into that post office
And tell 'em to hang it up
Now his career's lebron's jersey in twenty years I'll stop when I'm at the very top
You sh---ed on me on your way up
It's 'bout to be a scary drop
'cos what goes up must come down
You going down on something you don't wanna see like a hairy box
Every hour happy hour now
Life is wacky now
Used to have to eat the cat to get the p---y
Now I'm just the cats meoww ow
I'm classic now
Always down for the catch weight like
Pacquiao ya'll are doomed I remember when t
Pain ain't wanna work with me
My car starts itself parks itself and autotunes
'cos now I'm in the
Aston I went from having my city locked up to getting treated like
Kwame kilpatrick
And now I'm fantastic compared to a weed high
And y'all ni--as just gossipin' like b---hes on a radio and tv
See me we fly y'all buggin out like wendy williams
Staring at a beehive
And how real is that I remember signing my first deal and now
I'm the second best
I can deal with that
Now bruno can show his a-- without the
Mtv awards gag
You and I... know what it's like to be kicked down
Forced to fight
But tonight we're alright so hold up your light
Let it shine...
'cos this one's for you and me living out our dreams
We're all right where we should be
With my arms out wide I open my eyes
And now all I wanna see is a sky full of lighters
A sky full of lighters
