No cheap cologne whenever I “shh-shh” Success never smelled so sweet I stink of success, the new Black elite They say my Black Card bear the mark of the beast I repeat, my religion is the beat My verse is like church, my Jesus piece Now please, domino, domino Only spot a few Blacks the higher I go, uh What’s up to Will? Uh, shout out to O, uh That ain’t enough, we gonna need a million more, uh Kick in the door, uh, Biggie flow I’m all dressed up with nowhere to go, uh [Verse 2: Kanye West] Yeah, it’s all messed up when it’s nowhere to go So we won’t take the time out ’til we reach the T-O-P From parolees that hold G’s, sold keys, low keys We like the promised land of the OG’s In the past if you picture events like a black tie What the last thing you expect to see? Black guys What’s the life expectancy for Black guys? The system’s working effectively, that’s why I’ll be a real man, take care of your son Every problem you had before this day is now done New crib, watch a movie ‘Cause there ain’t nothin’ on the news but the blues Hit the mall, pick up some Gucci Now ain’t nothing new but your shoes Sunday morning, praise the Lord You the girl that Jesus had been saving me for So let’s savor this moment and take it to the floor Black excellence, truly yours] |
