I’m married to this life, until death does us part
‘cause it ain’t coming twice, this ain’t no noah’s arc
I’m a never steer wrong, oh no, no turns in the bad direction
Ain’t got no cushion since I passed that stage of adolescence
Oh no Oh no, these snakes will not inspire me
Cats be going jungle book, these frauds will try to lie on me
Apply the Brakes like Meineke,
success is only mine to see
I wanna get these sales like I’m flowing over pirate seas
To fame and fortune baby, mays is gonna jettison
Tryina keep me out the picture, make me Ralph Ellison
I gotta prove I’m better than,
all the aging veterans
Take the stage and make it in the city that I represent
New York, New York
No love for those who soft and
I just wanna reign, dear I’ll be called Rudolph and
If my skill really ain’t apparent like an orphan
I’ll die if I choke, hold the coffin
But Tell me “how you doin?”
 
If you can make it here
You’ll make it anywhere
It thought I made it clear,
No room for failure baby
Yall better grab a chair
‘cause I’ll be standing square
‘till I’m a millionaire
Nothing can phase me baby
Ain’t no one questioning Me
motives plain as can be
boy was made to emcee
You know I’ll make it baby
You see, this focused
On these things that I’m persuing
I got so much soul, I’m a shoe-in
But tell me How You doin?
 
How you doin, yo I’m on that wendy Williams Tip,
But I ain’t talking television, when I bring my syndicate
For those alive we getting it,
those who died we reminisce
This journey is a long one,
and I hope to see the end of it
word, bond – word bond,
I feel it in my protons,
My very being’s screaming,
See my conscience refereeing,
‘cause this college thing is stressful
And the process got me steaming
It’s a contest between being honest and
Me just leaving
But
Hold on, Hold on
Understand that I know my worth,
iLLy Mays, two names, one man
advanced beyond this earth
get it right
Lose sight, that’s not an option
Too bright, the optics got him
You couln’t get ahead of me,
playing rock em sock em
Yeah
So Spread the word around ya crew
After that, take my songs, run and tell ya neighbor’s too
Son was made for pay per view unh
Rising ‘till the Dew gone
Papa made me too strong
I’ma never play the fool,
but how you doin?
