Once Upon a Time In Hollywood

You always creep
You always creep
You always creep
You always creep
Logic's favorite Quentin Tarantino movie is Once—
You always creep
You always creep
You always creep
You always creep

Ayo, uh, one, two, three, four
Kill Bill, Jackie Brown, Pulp Fiction, and Reservoir
Peep the lore, cinematic metaphor
Nine years since I did The Incredible True Story
Now let me break down my career through the films in his category
In the backlot, surrounded by guns, killers and crack rock
Wish God could've re-edited that shot, I guess not
The L-O-G-I-C, open your mind, like O-ren Ishii
At fourteen, cinema was my morphine
Surrounded by more fiends, I could describe the sight enforcing
Crazy 88 vs The Bride, my house was fortified
Single mother's mortified as they children died
While the killers out on bail and then show up to court and lied

See I discovered hip-hop through Volume One
Tarantino hit the RZA, left the whole world stunned
Now I heard of Wu-Tang, but never truly knew the game
First scene in the movie, Nancy Sinatra, Bang Bang
Sampled that shit through the MPC in a plot of swang
I'm down to rap it all, 36 Chambers released the catapult
Next thing I know, I'm bumping Only Built 4 Cuban Linx
Building my armor like a Brinks
Supreme Clientele got me out here wanna be rocking minks

Nas is up next, QueensBridge where them gangsters pump text
Mos Def was rocking with The Roots
Then I discovered RatPack sipping scotch at the Santa, rocking suits
Blend it all together, what you get, that's Young Sinatra
Prepare for departure, partner
Just me and my room, steady vision like a Dolly zoom
Hoping I'll make it out, probably soon
Smoke in my lungs like Mr. White, I'm far from Mr. Right
My childhood home, really, honestly, I don't miss the sight
Nothing but fight-or-flight, we never freeze
Increase the light up by degrees and ignite the trees, with ease
RatPack what they call us, a boss like Marsellus Wallace
Dropping Jules like bad motherfuckers is on my wallet

Discovered The Delfonics from the sonics of the third film
Cooking without a kiln, but, yeah, we still pushing
Afraid of flying from the fear at the airport, like Pam Grier
From Metropolis to Upgrade, we finally made it here
Flip the track like Stuntman Mike, I'm feeling Death Proof
Moment I left the booth, now check the proof

I dropped Bobby Tarantino in the valley in Encino
I could finally feel the heat like De Niro and Al Pacino
Every track that I record, feel like another Nazi scout
I'm Django on a horse now, watch me mount any amount
I'm Sam Jack in The Hateful Eight, coming face-to-face with his fate
That's me at sixteen, millimeters from my dream

I guess it all started from Kill Bill, but after a couple of mill'
I started to feel like they didn't respect the skill
Still attained what I did, living a dream in a four-story crib
I could have never imagined as a kid
Everything he wanted to attain I did
Felt like a has-been
Finally saw the code behind The Matrix like an admin
Said: Fuck Hollywood, and moved to a cabin
As a man in the game, I related to Rick Dalton, spit fire and flow molten

Wanted nothing more than to open that gate
For a dinner party next to Polanski and Tate
So when I saw Rick climb the mountain at the end of the movie
I realized all this shit these people been talking just moving through me
I felt like a failure with the world in my hand
And this is something only less than the one-percent understand
Was always in demand until I wasn't
Fuck the hamster wheel, you're not a human, fuck how you feel
You don't have the same passion and skill that you did when you were younger
And you never will, fill the void
Your fans want you in the past, like Christopher Lloyd
Been on tour for ten years, like a marine that's been deployed
And now none of it matters, just my woman and my boy
So when I finally saw Rick throwing a fit thinking that it was it
I felt the same identically, 'cause we've been through the same shit
Felt like my hay-day passed at dinner, my wife says it has
You'll never have the passion that you had
'Cause you were trying to make it out and not end up like your mom and dad

It drove me to tears at the table
Knowing that I'll never be able
To relive it and give it my all
Constantly in a state of fall
'Cause ain't no way that you can do what you've been done
The only thing that I'm that passionate about these days, my son
Already won, this game is for the young, not playing that shit
Too grown to be number one on top in this rap shit
So, my favorite Tarantino movie used to be Kill Bill
I felt like Beatrix while on my way to the top of this hill
Once I finally reached the summit, felt my stomach plummet still
'Cause I realized it's all about the clout and not the skill

Used to be driven like a highway
Now I'm older and wiser, Rick Dalton walking up the driveway
I'll never have the passion I once did, it's understood
It's all good, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood

You always creep
You always creep
You always creep
You always creep
