[Verse 1: chief waKiL]
All the way from where I started to the present
1987: Year of the legend
Shouts to my brethren who did it before me
It helped mold a nigga cause his level's to the shit
I ain't taking it for granted
Damn it, I'm going in
And rearranging the game
And making room for my kin
If you disrespecting the squad
No need to even acknowledge
Or try to even the odds
There's nothing that ain't a problem
Tell 'em that they can chill like bottles that's on chill
And VIP with the people that's living up on their heels
And Hollywood where the people that's acting ain't even actors
And people trying to act ain't got it
That's kinda backwards, damn
A lot a plans ain't go just the way I want it
But life is a crazy game
You gotta roll with the punches
If everything was the pop and just the way that we made it
You could be happy, but you be choosing good over greatness
I'm saying
[Hook 2x: chief waKiL]
What it is, what it do, man?
Ain't nothing, ain't nothing
From beginning to the end
I'm just in it for the win
Maybe you could learn something, huh?
[Verse 2: chief waKiL]
They claiming they made it
But barely scratching the surface
They doing it for the glam
While I'm doing it with a purpose
Soon as I'm on, I'm on
Climbing and steady working
When I get it, I'm a get it for real
There's gon' be curtains
For certain
Put a fork in 'em
Country boy, but the flow got New York in it
Let 'em see me in a ride, yours tinted
I ain't got nothing to hide, so you're different
Small size so they acting like I ain't a threat
I ain't even started it yet
I'm a go hard to the death
I'll be the hardest to catch
Yeah, I be checking more G's than auto correct
I've been in this thing for 10 years
Like I ain't a vet
Prob' got y'all trippin' cause y'all ain't swallowed it yet
I won fly nigga, I feel like I'm on a jet
Eat brains, Hannibal Lect
Insane cannibal, yes
Membranes gotta get checked
Ball game, give me respect
