Live from the Gunshine, rise of the one lines
It's one life, one love one King, I'll say it one time
You could tell I been doing this for a minute now
I been around w you kidding but I don't kid around
Couples shots of Patrón to hold me, just sit 'em down
...turn the mic up, lights, dim 'em down...
...it's iLLustrious over everything
MeRCY told me over that home plate, you better swing...
I want everything I came for
Everything is everything 'til is everything is paid for...
Same game but not the same score
I just set the tone...& you just better change yours..
Put a price on his head, that's how you wage a war...
This the league of shadows & ain't nobody afraid of yours...
If you the fraudulent shady type I don't favor yours
So you just stay away from mine...& I'ma stay away from yours...
...Time is money you gotta pay the cost
ILLustrious
Trust me it's nothing you ever came across...
Been the iLLest since I became a boss
So if you want the throne, come get it, what you waiting for...
...I been top 8 since 84...
August 21st she gave birth to the baby boy
Had a part in the fade since I was maybe 4...
Been fly since a baby, what you think they hate me for...
...I'm not Pippen when the clock ticking...
I got the game tied up...stop tripping...
...as far as metaphors you should check the score
...Picture Bishop playing Chess on a Checker board
...it's a gift I got me a blessing Lord
So I ain't gotta be better than them, just better off...
...check the record it said I never lost
Say sooner you get to the point, the sooner it get across...
