Rebel for the hell of it, hella rich
Never have to sell a brick again, must I tell a bitch again?
The bullshit I'm addressin', check, I'm on some next level shit
Never been fucked in the game; I'm celibate
Rarely out my element, barely out the ghetto, with
One foot out and one foot in, intelligent as fellas get
Listen, let's settle this: be clear, I could fall back
Seven years, still it ain't no one ahead of me
Consider it a blessin' if you get to stand next to me
Five-star general, OG veteran
Caked like Entenmann's, blowin' that celery
Stack that cash like the U.S. Treasury
Every single thing I ever did was done heavily
Rap until you're 70, still ain't no catchin' me
Put it on my pops, Big Phil, Aunt Beverly
Be standin' on the top still after they bury me
Nose in the air, so stuck up, arrogant
Ain't got long hot songs, best cherish it
Cool, when I drop mine; that's over, finito
You payin' for your foul like a free throw: BAOW!
Now, how could a nigga think that he could see me
Other than the magazine covers or the TV?
Know I sold more mixtapes than your CD
You're waitin' on your big break, prayin' you could be me
You ain't made it far as D.C., on the low
I been all around the globe, like a God how they treat me
Broads hit they knees, eyes closed when they greet me
Mouth wide open, just beggin' me to skeet-skeet
You in a deep sleep, stop dreamin'
I'm six albums in, for ten years, I been firing hot semen
The limelight's mine, I'm gleamin', beamin'
Ask why I say I'm King, bitch, I got my reasons
"Im Illy" Verse 1
