    Yeah, yeah

    Don’t compare me to employees who hopin they see a check
    I’m in a drop top mclaren just hopin I see an ex
    She hopin we reconnect
    No chance
    I’m tryna be bigger than the Beatles not hold hands
    Keep on throwing stones Imma make statues
    No face tats but people got my face tattooed
    Freeing the damned
    By being free as I am
    And speaking belief into people sittin with reason to stand
    Who just might be needing a hand
    I got you
    9th wonder blessed provided the gospеl
    I feel god like
    My fans all feel like apostles
    Modеl your mind after mine and you gon be just find
    Model your mind off these other guys and you gon die
    That’s why I’m always at the head of the table follow my lead
    Imma money tree women tryna swallow my seed
    You wasn’t with me at my roots tho
    I’ve been on a quest for love for women with a roots fro
    And potential like a juco
    Athlete catch me in the backseat with ass cheeks on my lap we in Utah so we fuck to a jazz beat
    It’s actually therapeutic
    She classy I’m Ferris bueller
    Swimming out in Turks and Caicos be ware of the barracudas
    I got heart
    I’m the cause my life is just the effect
    I’m altering my reality living in VFX
    Made a half million dollars then fell asleep on the jet Fuck the club up Atlanta ain’t seen this since BMF
    Told my accountant reinvest
    Gotta pound of weed for stress
    I might drop two platinum albums in a year like DMX
    Keep on living in my light
    And let my faith just lead the way
    Cuz if I’m taking yalls advice
    I’m probably making y’all’s mistakes
    Instead I’m out in Egypt
    Just baskin in the results
    Of listening to myself and mappin out all my goals
    My career is a course in self confidence
    And how ownership leads to opulence
    Adjust your oculus
    If you tryna rise to prominence
    Bust down the door assert dominance
    When you call your first conference
    I’m honest with my women
    That’s probably why they all hate me
    They focused on bein Lori I’m focused on bein jay z
    The run that I’m on is gonna be longer than the Euphrates
    Gotta super model chick that’s badder than tom Brady’s
    Rap game bunch of clowns in disguise like John gacy
    You got one plaque and it’s not even your song I got 80
    Lately y’all are lazy
    Waitin to be carried
    Lotta y’all are dead you just waitin to be buried
    Listen
    I’ve been hot since Michelle and Barack
    You out your mind if you think I’m gon stop

    I didn't come this far to only come this far
    I gotta, keep momentum swingin', keep momentum swingin'
    I didn't come this far to only come this far
    I gotta, keep momentum swingin', keep momentum swingin'

    Conversation alone in the mirror (Uh-huh)
    I told myself before the year up (Before this year over)
    I'd be another homeowner and another millionaire (Facts)
    My life crazy, but I'm way too busy to tear up (Too busy)
    Just please keep them broke vibes from near us (Walk away from me)
    We different, I'm not the one to converse (Uh-huh)
    By the time you mumble your verse
    I'll be in top five company, comfortably, gunnin' for first (First)
    If it's rap or either trap, one gon' come with some perks
    The other come with a six foot hole dug in the earth
    Look, I know how them numbers lookin', I don't gotta check stats (I don't do that)
    The pussy good, but I'll still never text back (Nah)
    Being unsigned, ain't never changed my potential
    With every wave of a pencil, a nigga gained a momentum
    Wanna walk in my shoes, but I'm not trading my Christians for Crocs (Never)
    But lil' rap niggas only cravin' attention
    It's funny when you high (Funny, uh), but it's ugly when you not
    Everybody doubt, then suddenly you pop (Pop)
    Niggas signin' 360's, and hope it do something for their stock
    But I turned on more money than I got, and that's a lot
    Had patience and it helped, I remember thinkin', "Make it big"
    Then decorate the crib with paintings of myself
    'Cause that who I owe (That's who)
    You gotta give yourself credit, they definitely won't (They won't give you shit)
    You won't hear this flow so often, so treasure these quotes
    [?] cheddar, we know enough plugs with bricks
    That I'd probably never be broke
    I'm used to not gettin' sleep, that's a twenty-four-hour business
    Exercisin' my brain, like twenty-four-hour fitness
    Haters look at my jewels, get the feel of resentment
    Feelin' like I'm 'posed to buy their friendship (What?)
    I remember sellin' merch dolo, mailin' my own shipment (Dolo)
    Now I'm on, y'all hoes thinks it's Christmas, am I the one trippin'? (Me?)
    Even if you think you this nice, it's gon' be hard, try to match my ambition
    I'm goin' on a rampage, handguns and champagne
    House need a damn maid, my watch need a lampshade
    Body language, everything, read what my hands say (Read what my hands say)
    I'll go a little slower if you need me to translate (Need me to translate)
    Boss moves, keep options, that's how you play it safe
    Just sealed the deal for a hundred with a handshake
    Weighin' out the racks, a hustler really made it out with rap
    With the jewels in the bank accounts to match
    The Butcher

    I didn't come this far to only come this far
    I gotta, keep momentum swingin', keep momentum swingin'
    I didn't come this far to only come this far
    I gotta, keep momentum swingin', keep momentum swingin'

    Yeah, when I first started recording, I swear it was more important
    To make it the soul-train and a gold chain and some Jordans
    Than makin' my own lane and then blaze in the trail forward
    But I came from the old days where the vision was too distorted
    To come to an understanding, a partnership and plannin'
    For your marketin' and brandin', though the office was abandoned
    Am I surprised? I'm monetized like more Morgan Stanley
    I'm in a position now to make a difference for the family
    My wife, kids, and in-laws deserve and inwalls
    Picassos and war-hogs distressing my memoirs
    About the knowledge of experiences I've endured
    Create the bars, full of information like SIM cards
    I left court rooms as a defendant, fully acquitted
    In spite of the blood, suckers who try sully my image
    And fightin' with motherfuckers, who tried to tell me I'm finished
    As if I'd ever consider the sky above as a limit
    When I am the scientific, my honor, I'm dying with 'em
    Iconic, gifted, it's rare, it requires a fairly, different kind of spirit
    Far as inner feelings, I ain't tryna hear it
    Bein' fearless, how I'm violated to a higher terror
    [?], I guess I am here, 'cause ain't nobody near me
    You want a pyramid and I'm inherant to the game
    Fiery, I maintain, momentum and I made a name, clearly
    But, I can't stop, I believe there's no rest more the wary
    From the cards I was dealt, to awards on my shelf
    I turn scars to a sense of regard for myself
    Based on where I set the bar, I made it hard for myself
    I lent the hand before my brothers called for my help
    When I was still an inspiring, gun right for the firing
    Tryna find a part-time job site that was hirin'
    Never concerned with the age or the height
    Requirements tryna shake the ways of the hood, like the violence Watchin' the homies being forced into early retirement
    I'm stuck as another product of their environment
    I was told that achievement of goal starts to tryin' at the prize
    Keep your eye on the hard work, rely on it
    And nothing else, don't just hustle for your health
    Fear they gon' do nothing for you until you secure your health
    Focus on the top, I've been hot since before craft rock
    You out your mind if you think I'ma stop, yeah

    I didn't come this far to only come this far
    I gotta, keep momentum swingin', keep momentum swingin'
    I didn't come this far to only come this far
    I gotta, keep momentum swingin', keep momentum swingin'
