THIS IS ME. (Intro)
Watch me
You see how far I'll go
To seek the lord, while you may
To seek the lord
They ain't ready for me
Nah, they ain't ready for me
They ain't ready for me
Nah, they ain't ready for me
Okay
Hold up, wait
God forgive me for the words I'm bout to say
It's Noah Layne, bitch, and I come here to slay
Drop a gem or two for my enemies, better pray
Ice Cube, no AK today
Deployed and came back, and now I'm changin' up the cycle
Turnin' all my idols right into rivals
Got body bags more zippers than Michael
Thriller, I'm a killer on the mic oh
My mob hit a hundred and we all goin' psycho
Mafia or anime, whichever one you like hoe
Double entendre, bitch, I am a monster
Red Bull with wings, Zoa warrior conscious
I'm just honest, dialect ebonic
I'm just honest, dialect ebonic
I'm just honest, dialect ebonic
They ain't ready for me
Nah, they ain't ready for me
They ain't ready for me
Nah, they ain't ready
What do you say to young men who come to you for advice?
Who feel lost? who don't really know where they fit into society?
I say that life as a man is exceptionally difficult
I say the most beautiful and the most terrifying thing about being a man is you're born without value
Society doesn't care about you
You're only gonna be cared about based on how useful you are
You have the chance to build yourself up and become a superhero
If you're prepared to do the hard work and be indefatigable enough to never quit
But, if you're gonna stand around and wait for a handout
Nobody's gonna ever respect you and I think that
A lot of people have forgotten about how difficult and how competitive it is as a man
We're always in constant competition with each other
And it's your duty as a man to stand up and say I want to be as important
And strong and good-hearted and God-fearing as possible
And I need to work hard to achieve those things
Ain't got no money in the bank, but I'm still going harder
Pennies turn to nickels and nickels turn into quarters
Dollar in a dream, holler at 'em and scream, that this the slaughter
I write my own destiny, bitch, I'm the author
Wieldin' Excalibur, and you reap what you sow to
And if I ever have a son or daughter, I'ma be the best father
Word on my mama, not into the drama
Lightning bolt Ramuh, when I'm on a timer
Bank account looking like I need an extra comma
Hundred bar spitter, call me an alpaca
When I get a foreign, tell my bitch where to park her
All eyes on me, that's word to Pac huh
Ye taught me how to make a Benz out that Datsun
Look around, be thankful what you got son
Leave you starstruck as I fly into the hot sun
The time is now
The time is now to express and for people to believe in themselves
The time is now for it to be okay to be great
People in this world shun people for being great
For being a bright color, for standing out
But the time is now to be okay to be the greatest you
You see how far I'll go
To seek the lord, while you may
To seek the lord
They ain't ready for me
Nah, they ain't ready for me
They ain't ready for me
Nah, they ain't ready for me
Okay
Hold up, wait
God forgive me for the words I'm bout to say

I'm just honest, dialect ebonic
I'm just honest, dialect ebonic
I'm just honest, dialect ebonic
They ain't ready for me
Nah, they ain't ready for me
They ain't ready for me
Nah, they ain't ready
