Midas

Gotta be like this, gotta be right quick
Everything is never given, gotta keep strivin'

Gotta be like this, gotta be right quick
When you overthrow the throne like the King Midas
Everything is never given, gotta keep strivin'
To the motherfuckin' top and you'll be thrivin'
You be fighting for your life, they wouldn't know it
You be rapping about this shit and they wouldn't notice
You got targets on your back, they got their guns loaded
Because you can never fail, you gotta get it going

I be thinkin' about the times when I could've done it
When I could've lived my fuckin' life instead of runnin'
Life is too short to be making nothin' of it
I be giving this advice to the kids cussin'
Swearing up and down to their father and their mother
'Fore you know it, they'll be gone and you'll have nothin'
Left to love, never thinking they were worth lovin'
Now's the time to change, gotta make your life somethin'
Worth livin' for, now it's in your own hands
It's too late to throw away your own plan
So it won't stand when they bomb you wit a missile
'Cause you'll be rippin' the shit just like an instrumental
Gotta stay humble 'Cause them motherfuckers tryna
Tear you down when you come around into the underground
You gon' do your thang, they gon' fuckin' play
Like it's fun and games, but it's life or death, so you make 'em pay
Now you gotta obliterate to get your way
For the motherfuckin' respect to live a day
Destroying anybody that's in your way, tryna
Insinuate the motherfuckin' downfall of your game
Ain't no last resort, 'cause it's important for
When they fuck with Darth Vader, he be using the Force
He be feeling no remorse when they feel the void
And the wrath of the Mighty Thor when taken to court
It's a lot of pain, it's a lotta trauma
You gon' make a dollar and strap a Magnum condom
'Cause if someone's biting your shit, you holla
(Get your fuckin' face up outta my dick or I'll maul ya)
You won't even know of these bitches who follow
When they're all over like there's never a tomorrow
When you're fighting for your legacy, you're elevated
'Cause them motherfuckers won't stand a chance, they'll never take it

Gotta be like this, gotta be right quick
When you overthrow the throne like the King Midas
Everything is never given, gotta keep strivin'
To the motherfuckin' top and you'll be thrivin'
You be fighting for your life, they wouldn't know it
You be rapping about this shit and they wouldn't notice
You got targets on your back, they got their guns loaded
Because you can never fail, you gotta get it going
