[Hook: The Boy Illinois]
And they ask why you so conscious you can tell it's in your content
I ain't know being unconscious was cool
But for some reason we don't follow no rules
I'm positively smooth

[Verse 1: The Boy Illinois]
Who yall kidding yall can't school us
Just left the house but we say we bout to pull up
Tryna buy time like Will Salas
But this ain't' no movie we a let the real have it
I was put on game by a carpenter and waitress
Thats back when ma f**as was hitting bank licks
When to Roseland for what I wore to the banquet
I was suited up nowadays I'm on the same sh**
What my poppa told me when I was young just ain't stick
Until I seen all the good guys become dangerous
And that's why we saying f** the cops
Idealistically it's smart but they don't do they jobs

[Bridge: The Boy Illinois]
Get it right you talking to a scholar
Do it to the 'T' every time I do it proper
That's why I own sh** don't believe in the dolla
Cause we tryna go gold my favorite playa Ibaka
We block shots when you try to send 'em at us
Cause I'm too smoother for that sh**
Not to mention I had on Stan Smith's
A GQ revolutionary sequels never necessary
[Verse 2: The Boy Illinois]
Always had a cold flow
Lake Michi' lake frigid
Patience a b**h ain't it? Or is it
Live it up and chase a dream 'till I see a mortician
And, fashion is the only time we talk four fitting
Common sense our religion
And if you don't get it then you probably won't get it
The weak seem to fold whenever they faced with it
They told me to preach but not like Ma$e did it
So this how I did it, I say
I'm a martyr in my Marc by Marc
And a capitalist in Comme De Garcons
A Socialist in some sh** I can't pronounce
Big bank take little bank like the Rothchilds
And I'm pro black in these f**ing cross colors
And we bear arms don't you dare cross cutler
We don't care f** everything you idolize
We came to rob the spot, I mean colonize
