[Lupe Fiasco]
2
Roc-A-Fella, 1st AND!!
3
Jay, Lupe!
4
Yeah,
5
And so it seems that I'm, sewing jeans
6
And, 1st and 15 is just a sewing machine
7
So I, cut the pattern and I, sew in seams
8
And, button in this hustling then publicly I'm Buddy Lee
9
There's no busting them and cuffing them is like
10
Ushering in the regime, they want me to make Prince pants
11
But I withstand, I ain't gotten into that
12
A little big in the waist, Tupac it on the back
13
Call them Nu-vi's, O.G.'s covered in blue dye
14
Give 'em the game, that's like giving chocolate to the fat
15
Look, how you think I got here?
16
That's the same game that came through where I lived as a kid
17
In the bad luck truck and threw boxes off the back
18
Made me a ripper, deliver like river
19
Content a little more thicker, slicker
20
Yeah, and they said oil and water don't mix
21
Now they all down at the beach washing off the fish
22
Was Blackbeard 'til I brought the Roc into your ships
23
Yeah!
24
[Chorus]
25
It's my life, my life, everything I do I do for you
26
I do it all for you, everything I say you know it's the truth
27
I'll say it is the truth, I'll take all the pressure off of you
28
Take pressure off of you, I'll take, the pressure off of you
29
[Lupe Fiasco]
30
Yeah!
31
Uhh, it's hella proper (proper)
32
Cause it sag so low you can see boxer, like a boxer's
33
That's the way that the Family's pants worn
34
Then we slide, and try and put 'em on
35
The stones in the pocket'll drag you down to Davy Jones locker
36
Beware if you wanna Roc the Knickerbocker
37
Other nigga from the block what, they was selling O's
38
Like Wheel of Fortune, of imported cocaine
39
Just to feel important, it was +Do or Die+
40
They was tired of being "Po' Pimps," now for sure
41
That was just a product of my common sense
42
I guess, I was just guessing like the consonants
43
Momma said beware of what the devil do
44
Tell 'em that your soul's not for sale like the W's
45
So go ahead and pirate, the highest
46
Cannons make you leak like pirated my shh,
47
It's no shh, it's just shh like quiet
48
And big homey's out of retirement
49
[Chorus]
50
[Jay-Z]
51
Uhh, Young, uhh
52
So the pen is mightier than the sword my lord
53
My first picture was a line-up, now I'm on the Forbes
54
And I still remain the artiste through thees all
55
If you force my hand I'll be forced to "draw"
56
If the war calls for war halls
57
Hope you got enough space on your hall's walls
58
I make niggas murals, then escape the bureau's
59
Investigation, out in Europe on vacation
60
I'm back for these puppies with the pound boy
61
(Blaow) Here's a round boy (blaow blaow) down boy
62
Sound boy, you don't wanna sound clash loud noise
63
Leave niggas paranoid if not paralyzed
64
Which means you can't walk in my shoes
65
Too much green you can't talk in my hue
66
Extend the team, nigga holla at Lu'
67
1st and 15th, that's my cue, I'm through
68
[Chorus]
J. Cole - a p p l y i n g . p r e s s u ...
