Elevate

[Verse 1] Well, it's beginning to look a lot like y'all, follow my every step Take notes on how I rep, what else would you expect? Oh yes, they say that money talks in these streets If money talks, then who say the most and who say the least? Speak, that's if you can and if you can't choke Ironically, the ones who can't the ones who ain't close They tell me this how the city really supposed to feel Tattoo my name in your checkbook, that'll let me know it's real Listen, hating is a decision I normally stay in the cut but some people hate the incision Tell you 'bout that suspicion, I ain't getting commission And tell you how well and different they do it in my position Aborted mission, you shoulda coulda woulda did that If it's 15 minutes of fame, where yo minutes is at? What have you ever done? What have you ever did? It's rhetorical, don't answer that, cause you know what it is [Hook] When you're moving on up and everybody wanna roll They say they love me but I can never be sure So you know, you know I elevate on these hoes Elevate on these hoes They can talk down about me everywhere they go But they don't say it when they see me in the streets though So you know, you know I elevate on these hoes Elevate on these hoes [Verse 2] They'll tell you your fate I said you can't win What good's a hustle when your mentality caged in? I pull up on 'em, park it right up on the pavement Step out and look and be stuck in my own amazement And that feeling still ain't fulfilling Millions on top of millions, you gon' become the villain You see this one-room apartment where we was living? This why I'm claustrophobic and riding without the ceiling Guess who calling my number, sitting in her pajamas Feeling like it's a bummer that I ain't give her the lumber Tapping that like a drummer, turning her to a cummer Instead I'm somewhere in winter that's feeling like it's the summer Hold up, the garage as big as the court How you learn how to ball and not even get in the sport? Decorated the grill, made it look like an ESPY But you can't see the front when you in the rear trying to catch me [Hook] [Verse 3] See I came up on that Scarface and I came up on that 'Kast That Pimp C and that Bun B the professors of my class When a major deal had came through, who came up on one last Same person that taught you how to come up on that cash They say that flattery's what you get from an imitator Gave birth to all my haters, I shouldn't have paid for your labor When you turn to the savior, they never ask for a favor Watch people that never gave you a favor act like they made ya But I gotta get mine, get, get in the rotation Gots to stay trill, never been a imitation Never stop mine, cause they come with complications Broke them boys off, caught 'em with intimidation Look in my eyes, try to tell me what you're facing Out the north side, it's a legend in the making Watch where I slide in the elevator though Elevate on these hoes Elevate on these hoes
