Tell 'em, slime

Yeah, I am the king of the E.A.
Get this bitch screwed like the DJ (Big slime)
Yeah, I am the shit where we play
We got the chalk where we play (okay)
Yeah, come through the city
We gon' chop your ass up just like some sushi (yeah)
Ak47, stick go stupid (yeah)
Draw the money out, all the way

Okay, lil' dirty, nappy-headed East Atlanta nigga
Father said that I was a force
.44, Hank Aaron chrome
Wanna make it home, then get out the Porsche
Let a nigga cover FADER 'fore I have to fade a nigga at the FADER Fort
It's tomato or tomato, either way, the boy the greatest
Play it, I won't say it no more
I was just fucked up, I was just down, down bad
I had to tighten the f*ck up, but I'm here for the crown
Board of Education vs. Brown
I was bored of education, left the town
F*ck a résumé and f*ck a cap and gown
F*ck a background check, back 'round when I get the check
Nigga, that's now

I was just fucked up, I was just down, down bad
I had to tighten the f*ck up, but I'm here for the crown, crown (oh, shit)
I was just fucked up, I was just down, down bad
I had to tighten the f*ck up, but I'm here for the crown, crown, crown, crown

I was just fucked up, I was just down, down bad
Picked up the pad, picked up the slack, pick of the litter, don't litter no bag
Bassy been pickin' up racks, raps come in clearer than Acuvue 2
When I'm back in the booth
Got 'em hackin' a Shaq 'cause they lackin' the juice
Niggas droppin' the ball, they on Shaqtin' a Fool
Activis drool out the side of yo' face
We ain't jackin' it, we ain't dappin' them fools
Get a napkin, you dudes is embarassin'
Who going crazy like us? No comparison
Dreamville like Marion Jones on the steroids
Y'all niggas slow as a heroin high
Y'all had a year, y'all had a year
Y'all had a year, but you let it go by, yee

I was just fucked up, I was just down, down bad
I had to tighten the f*ck up, but I'm here for the crown, crown (oh, shit)
I was just fucked up, I was just down, down bad
I had to tighten the f*ck up, but I'm here for the crown, crown, crown, crown

Dreamville head honcho
Bitch, we came from nothin' just like the big bang theory
That poverty stains kept the pain buried
And covered the shame with a dream
We would have fortune and fame
A mil' in the bank, chameleon paint turned cranberry
Now little Jermaine got the same story
As that boy out of St. Vincent-St. Mary, G.O.A.T.
All hail King Cole, first of his name, long may he reign
The boy got the throne, but you know it ain't a game
'Ville nigga, I was born in the same
Pressure cooker that's been known to bust a lump of coal and make a diamond
Two six, we enrolled in Reaganomics
Crew sick, we the Golden State of rhyming, on God

You could die today, so be hell to pay
I'm a livin', breathin', schemin' testimony
So don't test me, homie, put that D in horny
Put a foot up that ass, you a steppin' stone (yeah)
All my niggas ain't gettin' no sleep (yeah)
All of my niggas be chasin' their dreams (yeah)
Ooh, I'm a force of nature, I can't wait to date ya
I was havin' problems 'til I had to break through
All my tattoos for sure (f*ck it up), they ain't never for show (f*ck it up)
Might get tattoo'd on today (f*ck it up), ya ho get the dope (f*ck it up)
Spend my time makin' love to your thoughts (f*ck it up)
Gon' get in line, baby, slut up your mind (f*ck it up, f*ck it up)
It's a brand new season, I'm a righteous heathen
I take on the challenge and I leave it bleedin'
I was down bad, now I'm Even Steven
And I'm leavin', leavin' every fuckin' weekend (oh)

I was just fucked up, I was just down, down bad
I had to tighten the f*ck up, but I'm here for the crown, crown (oh, shit)
I was just fucked up, I was just down, down bad
I had to tighten the f*ck up, but I'm here for the crown, crown, crown, crown
