[Intro: Ronvé]
V-E: bringing you the best in high quality hip-hop
[Hook]
I keep it cla**y - riding in something clean when you pa** me
Don't even wanna drive, throw me in the back seat with something beautiful - you ain't gotta ask me!
I keep it cla**y - focused on tomorrow, never on last week
My presence is a present, you ain't gotta wrap me
So vintage, elegant, cla**y
[Verse 1]
Dressed down, three-piece suit tailor made
Fedora brim low, I ain't gotta wear no shades!
Jacket reaks of Ralph Lauren, but I'm saying bathed:
Clean cut, well cleaned up - add polish to them 808's
That's so grimy - like those hard times behind me
Blood of a slave, heart of a King and you ain't gotta check no ID!
You know who I be: fly, sophisticated, elevated like the language I speak when communicated. Educated!
Rap Langston Hughes when he was paying dues
Forever lost in thoughts and pages I floss - new Harlem Renaissance
Hit points like a yacht, when I get across - no getting off
(Aside from the ladies we bringin, we ready to set this off!)
[Hook]
[Verse 2]
High quality, such a dichotomy to the so-called hottest emcee's
So scholarly without rockin Dockers (gotta stay fly obviously)
Don't need Instagram or Twitter but they still follow me
Cuz I what I write is epic like Odyssey
I'm on my job, they like Tommy on Martin, b
I'm just a product of the economy, modestly living off profit til the lottery hits where my wallet be
Black Wall Street, paint pictures that seem good
But won't stop til we living like Greenwood
Such a misconception, they say that we're "hood"
They may be right but we still flossin like we should! Know why?
[Hook]
[Bridge]
Crème de la crème
Elegant
Refined
Distiguished gentleman
New state of mind
Princely
Regal
I be on my grind
High cla** forever, this is my time
This is my time
This is my time!
