Let's get it clear, you, you're little team up in here
you're working hard to be seen, I'm working hard to disappear
off the map, magician rap, my next shit
I'm sawing rappers in half, but this ain't no trick
it's for real, if you're corny with rhymin', I can't do it
hit record, bang your head on keyboards like Don Music
I know they love it, underground with no budgets
busy catching all these blessings, no hands to hold no grudges
nah, stay woke in these streets, I'm tryna tell you
cats would rather record you gettin' stomped then come and help you
that's why I'm antisocial when it comes to the media
my virtual assistant is more efficient plus she speedier
and she be booking me flights on Expedia
my toes in the sand where it's breezy taking it easier
hands off with it, still I'm bettering the quality
you're working like a dog, I'm leveraging technology
Side stay killin' it, you? every now and then
expert with it, got my 10,000 hours in
black business I financially empower them
I spend, circulate, it compound, and come around again
Hook:
Only a chosen few gonna catch it
the rest I let it fly overhead they never get it, nah
see, I don't mess around or kid with it
I'm inaccessible, dig it, I'm off the grid with it
Only a chosen few gonna catch it
the rest I let it fly overhead they never get it, nah
see, I don't mess around or kid with it
no jokes, elusive, I'm off the grid with it
Verse 2:
They say yesterday is ashes, tomorrow is wood
only today the fire burns so gotta get it while it's good
I've lived in alotta hoods, I've soaked up alotta game
but tell my son father 'hood' is the only one I claim
for real, I gets mine, while they're gettin' their money
they write in the studio, I write out in bear country
compose a banger, nasty with it, Carlos Danger
doing this since y'all was crushing on Topanga
manage anger, I would start out serene
but it would end like a Final Destination death scene
stay inside, stay safe, it's a better way
you chasing two rabbits, both of them gonna get away
get it how you live, hustlin' or legit
the harder you work dog the luckier you get
I was just a little tyrant that was splashing in the hydrant
now I'm tryna hit the right side of the cashflow quadrant
test the waters, I'll be out here making waves
promise not to drown you in the deep end I'll behave
believe that? then you as doofus as clueless sheeple
smart bul, I sound crazy to stupid people
for real
Hook:
Only a chosen few gonna catch it
the rest I let it fly overhead they never get it, nah
see, I don't mess around or kid with it
I'm inaccessible, dig it, I'm off the grid with it
Only a chosen few gonna catch it
the rest I let it fly overhead they never get it, nah
see, I don't mess around or kid with it
no jokes, elusive, I'm off the grid with it
