you ain't gotta turn the lights on just so you can see the future
coz am already here
and now I gotta teach through a verse like a Sunday school teacher
and this is why am here
am showing you the ropes
how to walk when you were crawling fresh out of the underground like the subway
tracks from the underground teach how to fly that is better than to run coz you gotta have taste
so come and take a bite
and I ain't talking about the humble pie
man its all about the paper coz the numbers never lie
I know you get the feeling when the people ask you why
but you always gotta stop and ask em this
problem is a math and if the numbers adding up
then only rich is how a rapper ending up
and babe you ain't gotta be so beautiful just powder up your face like this rhyme that am just making up
and make it disappear
so I can teach you how to make the bread
that can feed another light skinny jeans
my rap is outstanding but I still gets it in
fresh president I don't need to be a king
(hey Roger that)
and I've been tryna tell you that from the start
you don't even need a crown for as long as you got snap backs
and I don't even do beef if you throwing bbq for a party ama stand back
coz most rappers ain't cold they just out of hits
that's why I gotta teach my people how to ride beats
by now you probably know just how to stand on two feet
throw some money coz I know my people gotta eat
it's over for them
am only getting started
am new in the game
and am here to stay
it's over for them
am only getting started
and am new in the game
and I know am here to stay
first time I saw the bright light I knew that I was born to shine
ama shooting star on a quest to grab what's really mine
first time that I hit the spotlight I knew this was the perfect time
to let you know that I've arrived
and am bringing the nu skool
am shooting for the stars I hope the sky is bulletproof
I swear that ama kill it check my records for the proof
I came out of the blues like a magic trick poof
we've been gone but we back up in the booth
drop a lot of bars like calls in bad areas no wonder why we never take heed of what they be telling us
fly like a Stuart on a first class jet
and if everybody balling then ama need a bet
now it's finally going down like the sunset in the Highlands
in the middle of the summer I just wish that you could see that
more than that I just wanted you to feel this
so much effort am applying success better reply this
follow my foot prints one step at a time
it's business entertainment at the same damn time
I rock up on the spot just to make a faahion statement
I think the nu skool needs it's own segment
it's over for them
am only getting started
am new in the game
and am here to stay
it's over for them
am only getting started
and am new in the game
and I know am here to stay
first time I saw the bright light I knew that I was born to shine
ama shooting star on a quest to grab what's really mine
first time that I hit the spotlight I knew this was the perfect time
to let you know that I've arrived
here's something new
here's something new
we the we the nu skool
(it's over for them)
hands up high hands up high
put your hands up high
(am new in the game)
here's something new
we the nu skool
we the we the nu skool
(it's over for them)
hands up high
(am new in the game)
high high high
and I know am here to stay
