[Intro}
They say I need help, name a man who doesn't
They say I'm crazy, name a legend that wasn't
My egg fried, I was dancing in the sun too long
Now welcome to my swan song
{Verse 1}
Been this way since Danny and Boobie
Never solo, catch me rolling deuce
With a couple screws loose, like I'm Lupe
It's a fiasco
I'm as loco as pablo
Skin black, bitch I'm straight from the Congo
Never mind
Bitch I'm straight from the mud
Mama's baby boy babysitted by thugs
They was 'bout that life but still showed me love
Same love that got one of 'em killed
R.I.P. J, I'm still chasing those bills
If I don't break a deal, bring the whole family a 'mill
Meal ticket with a silver spoon
I was born privileged, know I'll get it soon
If not, I'm have to make a move
Play for the money, young Warren Moon
[Chorus]
I'm back from the dead
I came from the dirt
See the mud on my skin
The brown of the Earth
See the world I was in
(The world I was in)
(I'm coming for first)
[Verse 2]
See, that's the world I was in
Where five times out of ten
The homies on da block
Same ones turn you in
It's a cold cold world
Ain't no heart in the city
They'll flip the script, like Bobbi on Whitney
Turn their back on you, what Luke pulled on Percy
Wore the silverstone
Kept it right on my shoulder
In case a n***a got slick and tried tipping me over
What's a fatal move?
The ones from the hills
Taught me to Jack and Jill
Till the ceilings cool
'Imma raise the roof
Ain't no billings due, do what the illest due
Keep my moves silent
Young Al Capone
Play for keeps
LA Capone
This that strong arm
Imma prove 'em wrong
Raise the pressure
On these dumbbells, till the pressures gone
[Bridge]
It's on
Strong arm
Buckle up
Muscle up
[Verse 3]
Muscle for muscle
Mano y mano
I done seen it all
N***as hop off the porch, just to get swallowed
It's never been easy
When no one cares, less it's 'bout they own
I was raised to get mines
Push the hate aside
When it's 'yo time
See the hate turn to love
Handshakes, handouts
Snakes quick to hug
That's all you 'gonna see when you jump the plug
That's when....
Should keep in mind who really by 'yo side
Keep the family round the waist
Quick trigger
Ride or die
No slip ups
No mishaps
Call it a mismatch
Playing tic-tac-toe
They playing catch up on criss cross
Tell 'em to meet me
I'm elevated somewhere they can't see
I've been on lift off
The rest still on empty
Something like that Go Go Gadget flow
Do you feel The Cool though
[Chorus}
I'm back from the dead
I came from the dirt
See the mud on my skin
The brown of the Earth
See the world I was in
(The world I was in)
(I'm coming for first)
[Bridge]
It's on
Strong arm
Buckle up
Muscle up
