Come on

City on fire when me come through
With entire catalogs lighting up your memory (your memory)
Provide memorable moments
Comb went searching through my mind every time someone say, "Remember me?"
Rap got the timeline drenched
So you won't find mine on the bench when the game's played
One player earned wings so his words sing from a bed 
In my heart where the pain lays (where the pain lays)
(Grind them legs they said)
But you do it too much them knees cause a strike on 'em
Most won't listen to the proverb 
'Cause they care too much about the button putting likes on 'em
Powder from the guns in the greed
But the flower from the fun's in the seed that we waterin'
Thanks to you the crews out in the lead
'Cause you know that we are what you need, put the order in

Sometimes you got to make it about yourself
Bring the warrior out yourself
Let loose in the wild, don't doubt yourself
You can find the route yourself
(Sometimes) you got to make it about yourself
Bring the warrior out yourself (yourself)
Bring the warrior out yourself (yourself, yourself, yeah)

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
According to friends, my mom and touring for
Months I'm messy but I never been to Florida (nah)
Reporting ya live and direct
And the new shit I put out be torching ya
Warren don't drive but War' ee-er
Got rich in my box recording ya, bitch
Foreign, my fit gorgeous
Humiliate these rappers
Hue display his rapper complex, like I'm copping sneakers not Adidas (nah)
This made of cows, I eat them too
Wagyu seasoned to perfection, I'm speaking Caesar (ayy)
Heat like fevers, peace as Jesus, ayy (ayy)
Need a visa, fly as eagle, ayy (ayy)
Nice demeanor, meanest feature
Slid on the beat like the ice and skis but I breathe heat, dip
I'm a climate switcher
I just switch my fits while they like to switch up, ayy

Sometimes you got to make it about yourself
Bring the warrior out yourself
Let loose in the wild, don't doubt yourself
You can find the route yourself
(Sometimes) you got to make it about yourself
Bring the warrior out yourself (yourself)
Bring the warrior out yourself (yourself, yourself)
