"Welcome to the New York Port Authority. Exits are in the back, on the left and right."
You know me, I'm a upscale character
Haters, we ain't mad at ya
To the penthouse we go
It's time to grind now, so we gotta shine now
Never take a time out
Leave 'em in the danger zone
You know me, I'm a upscale character
There is not a challenger
To the front page we go
It's time to grind now, so we gotta shine now
Never take a time out
Now you're in the danger zone
They in the danger zone
I'm in a major zone
They stereotype me, they thought my name Jerome
Because my skin is dark, I witness art
Watch me as I come up from the bottom and ascend the charts, and then I spark
I play this right
Fork in the road, I made a right
Try to take off while them haters just delay the flight
I know you watchin' me
Them other boys sloppy
My flow is dead on, now where's the autopsy?
who*es watch me, say hello to my stainless,
Got my hand in the cookie jar, visions of being famous, I'm saying
You know me, I'm a upscale character
Haters, we ain't mad at ya
To the penthouse we go
It's time to grind now, so we gotta shine now
Never take a time out
Leave 'em in the danger zone
You know me, I'm a upscale character
There is not a challenger
To the front page we go
It's time to grind now, so we gotta shine now
Never take a time out
Now you're in the danger zone
Yeah, my composition is remarkable
I am a molecule, they are just a particle
And this a article, so you can read all about it
And are they messing with us? I doubt it
The road less traveled, I'm sorry I'll reroute it
And this goes out to everyone that shot me down and doubted
Now I'm cumulusly clouded
Serious, higher than a Nimbus
I swear, I'm on the scene like forensics
Just check the stylo
We know heat flow
Them A&Rs tryin' to find me like Nemo, I mean it
You know me, I'm a upscale character
Haters, we ain't mad at ya
To the penthouse we go
It's time to grind now, so we gotta shine now
Never take a time out
Leave 'em in the danger zone
You know me, I'm a upscale character
There is not a challenger
To the front page we go
It's time to grind now, so we gotta shine now
Never take a time out
Now you're in the danger zone
Xaphoon, you crazy!
