[Intro]
Pick your coffin
Pick your coffin, I will not die 'til I see the morning
Hold me down, still you can't bring me to it
Flee before Yahweh strikes thee
For me, the one and only
Modern day Moses soon to be Midas (Jøjo)
[Verse 1]
I don't need your confirmation
See as how y'all niggas locked in cages
Be my own boss, I go where it cost
I don't need to floss, my teeth white, teeth bright like future
Need a gold chain and a Lambo to piss on
Need a new watch that's quality time well spent
Need a chick in a coupe to get high, you stoop low
Got 'em wondering now, who let the slave loose!
[Interlude]
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Ayo, where the fuck the bass at, nigga?
[Verse 2]
Death done walked up the front door
Knock-knock, death has come on the dance floor
I don't care it's a fair brawl
Midas could be Moses chose by God!
What the fuck you mean in denial?
The money heavy flow like it's the Nile
Pockets maxi pad this ain't period
Get it everyday too many numbers, feel arithmetic!
Me and death on the dance floor the pant pour
Knock-knock, bang the hinge off the damn door
And emcee's is pre-born I'm reborn
New slaves, y'all coons cooped in sea cars
Coupe for moi, that boy keep the heat warm
See the king, them boys think they seen God
Tell 'em I'll make 'em see God
And if not, it's hell on Earth and then more
New pair of eyes with a changed perspective
Gold chains and new whips, y'all is ancient
Two faced but y'all wouldn't dare and change it
Flared up? I'ma tear shit down, nigga, it's fuck your box!
[Verse 3]
Death done walked up the front door
Knock-knock. death has come on the dance floor
I don't care it's a fair brawl
Free at last, thank God Almighty we free at last!
[Bridge]
Look at ya
Look at ya
Look at—, look—look—look at ya
Look at ya, look at ya
Look at ya
Look at ya
Look at—, look—look—look at ya
Look—Look—Look—Look—Look—Look—
Look—Look—Look—Look—Look—Look at ya
[Refrain]
Argh, fuck
Who called you a slave?
Who called you a slave?
Who called you a slave?
Who called you a slave?
Who called you a slave?!
[Verse 4]
Fuck what you be on
Too many tracks they sleep on like it's Leon
Be the hottest artist then we go beyond
And beyond and beyond, ain't nothing but beyond
I'm too different for y'all niggas to belong
So fuck that, rule the world just to see y'all the bottom
I keep it a buck, you niggas not important
My ego talking, who the fuck got a problem?
Better talk about 'em, they don't want 'em
Underrate 'em 'til them drums get violated
I done stated my state is multigreatest, you can't fake it
This ain't Shein, this the long awaited
Got 'em asking: "Who dat boy?", the stage vision too immaculate
Road to Ali on my Cassius Clay for the moment but still as potent
Run away from the plantation, boy, who called you a slave?!
[Outro]
And when I say thug life, I mean that shit
'Cause these white folks see us as thugs
I don't care what y'all think
I don't care if you think you a lawyer
If you a man, if you a African American
If you whatever the fuck you think you are
We thugs and niggas to these motherfuckers
And until we own some shit, I'ma call it like it is
How you gon' be a man and we starving?
And you can walk by five different houses
There ain't a man in either one of the motherfuckers
