[Intro: Dr. Umar Johnson]
What you say?
You was on the scene before I popped?
N***a, I been puttin' in work before you even knew me, n***a
I just took me a while to pop
Cause n***as was hatin', and they knew once I got to the stage, It'd be a wrap for you n***as
And that's exactly what happened
Straight to the top overnight

[Verse 1: Arcane]
Nah, this ain't another club anthem (Ayehwa!)
I’m ‘bouta hit ‘em with a new one, come through on a whole ‘nother tandem (Eheka! Waibata?!)
Girl, you ain’t gotta grind to the baseline (Ayehwa!)
But if the vibе feels right, don’t waste time, wine up ya waistlinе (Eheka! Waibata!)
Nah, this ain’t the dumbed-down version (Ayehwa!)
The flow stay deep, every verse equivalent to submersion (Eheka! Waibata?!)
And if you don’t get, you ain’t got to (Ayehwa!)
Don’t get lost in these raps, fall back and relax, yo, I got you (Eheka! Waibata?!)
Now everybody know that I’m killing it on sight
Haters gon’ hate but really, it’s alright
I put the squeeze on ‘em, and now they’re all tight
So all they can be is all bark and no bite
VI hit me up like, “yo, it’s go time”
So lights, camera, action baby, it’s show time
It’s like a viper strike everytime I step to the mic
I get to spittin’ that venom in no time
[Chorus: Arcane]
Now, am I ever gonna slow up? (Ayehwa!)
Gotta keep it on the go, 10 by 10 every time that I show up (Eheka! Waibata?!)
Why they talking sideways, do they know us? (Ayehwa!)
Never keep it on the low, we come through, leave the whole place tore up (Eheka! Waibata?!)
Yeah! Let the beat breathe!

[Break: Dr. Umar Johnson]
And we just getting started
This was only practice
I been practicing for nine years
I been practicing -
Y'all thought I was going hard? - this was practice
And these haters couldn't keep up with my prac-

[Verse 2: Arcane]
Yeah, let me get on my soapbox
And give ‘em these raps that are hotter than stove tops
Turn ‘em into fiends like neighborhood dope spots
Givin' out these gems and I ain’t talking ‘bout coke rocks
I see these roadblocks but won’t stop (Ayehwa!)
And why should I?
The highest in the room man, these levels they won’t top (Eheka! Waibata?!)
Yeah, check me out, look
Reporting live from the streets of H-Town
This is our playground, but we don’t play ‘round
Big boy business, word to J. Brown
Straight up, this is a take-down
The streets hit me up like, “Ay, it’s yo time”
Take what’s yours, you don’t need a co-sign
It’s like a terrorist strike everytime I step from the mic cause they be yelling, “he about to blow, slime!”
[Chorus]
Now, am I ever gonna slow up? (Ayehwa!)
Gotta keep it on the go, 10 by 10 every time that I show up (Eheka! Waibata?!)
Why they talking sideways, do they know us? (Ayehwa!)
Never keep it on the low, we come through, leave the whole place tore up (Eheka! Waibata?!)

Now, am I ever gonna slow up? (Ayehwa)
Gotta keep it on the go, 10 by 10 every time that I show up (Eheka! Waibata?!)
Why they talking sideways, do they know us? (Ayehwa!)
Never keep it on the low, we come through, leave the whole place tore up (Eheka! Waibata?!)

[Outro: Dr Umar Johnson]
Put the work in
I put the work in
So don't compare me to them
