All Fly
First things first
I ain't never been afraid
To put the work in
Get some notoriety
The devil start to lurking
I ain't tripping bout it
Cause a lot of people doubted
When they seen me writing lyrics over
Waffles down at Perkins
IHOP why would I stop
When I'm this nice
Paid my dues a while ago
I got them paying this price
Often duplicated
Everybody stupid hated
That I never hesitated
When they told me I should think twice
Nah
Known to show up in the best look
Married to this state of mind
I hope you signed the guest book
After the processional
We having a confessional
Your boy is a professional
Who knew I had them pressed shook
Shout to Prodigy and Havoc
Flyer than whoever
Taking flight I'm like a Mavic
Never been concerned about
These halfway crooks
When we walk in the arena
See how mad they look
No retreat no surrender
Defeat the defenders
I love the competition
But there's very few contenders
We laugh about it but
Its honestly embarrassing
These rappers are identical
They something like the Harrisons
Andrew and Aaron
The man you comparing
Ain't cooking like me
Bless the hands that's preparing
Talib is a chef
I'm a cuisinier
Gonna need a miracle
Get on your knees and pray
In the Carolinas
Started balling as a minor
See me rooting for city
Golden Bulls and Forty Niners
Been engaged to this life
It's sweeter than some cantaloupe
Sent out invitations made deposits
So we can't elope
Granted hope
To people who don't fit in boxes
Even when your back is turned
You must know where the rock is
Got the crowd singing for me
Something like the Jonases
Trying watch the game with Jordan
Chilling where the owners is
All Fly, All I
Do is what I gotta do
To really put the team on
All Fly, All I
Do is make it possible
For all of y'all to dream on
All Fly, All I
Do is what I gotta do
To really put the team on
All Fly, All I
Do is make it possible
For all of y'all to dream on
All Fly, All I

All Fly, All I
Do is make it possible
For all of y'all to dream on
Let's be clear
I been balling in Charlotte
Since the beginning
Playing for the junior Hornets
For years at Naomi Drenan
We would travel round the city
Was fortunate to be winning
When we got a little older
All the coaches started grinning
Saw potential
Always getting better is essential
Overcame a lot to be a man
With these credentials
You might have had it harder
I ain't trying to be a martyr
To make it in Mecklenburg
You gotta maximize your mental
Same go for neighborhoods
In Gaston and Lincoln
Competing in them counties
In the past got me thinking
When I started playing
I was barely getting minutes
Was working to be a starter
And I probably should have been it
I ain't never been a quitter
And I wasn't bout to transfer
Chopped it up with coach
To try and get a couple answers
Like what I got to do
To stay in the rotation
By the end of the season
We had some ovations
No I in team
But there's two in domination
Giving it your all
Should be your only obligation
Whole team strong
Leveled up and locked in
Put in overtime
Before the competition clocks in
Mach ten
Then we moving to the next round
Show them that we better
Then we moving to the next town
All about the chip bout the ring
Bout the trophy
Ain't nobody better
If they are they gotta show me
In the Carolinas
Started balling as a minor
See me rooting for city
Golden Bulls and Forty Niners
Been engaged to this life
It's sweeter than some cantaloupe
Sent out invitations made deposits
So we can't elope
Granted hope
To people who don't fit in boxes
Even when your back is turned
You must know where the rock is
