lyrics

what's a blessing if your eyes was closed when you received it
by the time you got the truth in your face you wouldn't believe it
look a the boy, look at the boy, she say I'm handsome
you get a clue, button your lips, I run through the desert,
I'm coming for ransom
I aint the one, I'm knockin it down I heard she got a grandson [random]
she taking a knee, that aint got nothing to do with the anthem
son of a gun, they left you abandoned, i aint from earth
the greatest show ever but I aint on turf
runnin the play, run it like kurt
run it back like the Rams did
I'm Evil Knievel, I know that it's evil to follow the ways of the world
I catching the fire, catching the fire, for looking a way at your girl
a day in my shoes, looking at you, like how can I lose this race?
I'm dealing with fools, I take them to school, like I ain't got moves to make
a lotta sh* to do while they asleep and wonder why you awake
many will fall from grace or never see it, only a few could wait
gettin' wasted blowing jays inside my basement
we never looking back and regretting them days we wasted, I made it
Go tell a hater I made it.... yeah
and you couldn't tell me sh** when you barely got $5 on your last meal
and the world don't give a damn how you feel
You got one life you gonn' live

[hook]
Get out my way, you in my way, get out my way bitch
Get out my way, you in my way, get out my way bitch
Get out my way, you in my way, get out my way bitch
Get out my way, you in my way, get out my way

my n**** told me I'm the Goat
I'm the lining on the coat
ironic how I caught a wave
from saying fire that I wrote
I'm prevalent, heaven sent, I supply them with the rope
but I was too high from puffing on this fire from the smoke
the wave crashed on the shore the day you lying on a boat
that dodge charger aint a blessing, you aint riding with the pope
I see these rappers falling off yeah declining on a slope
I put in hours, give me flowers with that time that I devote
Montana, Brett Farve, success aint no mirage
I ain't stressin bout the job, my Jerry Rice is a God
I told Manny just keep pushing, it's a lesson from this odd
cruel world that we live in, it's destiny for my squad.
We gonn' make it..... aint no problem for me to solve
floating like butterflies, they trying to break my guard
chasing cash is a vibe, I'm Cashius Clay with the paws
breaking a couple rules, they praying I break the laws
another n**** in prison [this a prepaid collect call from]
statistically I'm the odds
they got us trapped in a jungle, I rumble like I'm abroad
you hanging on by a claw
before you fall to the canvas, you lookin' up at a God
[I must be the greatest, I told the world, I talk to God everyday, If God is with me can't nobody be against me]
and you couldn't tell me sh** when you barely got $5 on your last meal
and the world don't give a damn how you feel
You got one life you gonn' live

[hook]
Get out my way, you in my way, get out my way bitch
Get out my way, you in my way, get out my way bitch
Get out my way, you in my way, get out my way bitch
Get out my way, you in my way, get out my way

Hailing from right outside the nations capital, Awthentik brings a fresh approach with a recognizable flavor from the "Golden era" of hiphop. ... more
