Yo, I
am that I am, it's not what it was
I do what I do
cause it does what it does
I was here when you got here,
I'll be here when you gone
I'm just getting started
like I'm just getting on
I built my legacy, slowly but surely
My very first single titled Longevity
Now that's approximately 15 years ago
The lyrics resonate for 4 score and 7 mo
I stay cool as a fan
and I isolate for sales
Real recognize real and real will prevail
It's still sharp and still so I stay on the rail
With my ear to the ground,
I'm eastbound and down
Loaded up and truck it, swept by the buckets
If I didn't love it, I'd have been set, it
You shine like your earthly jewels,
I wear none
The brightest they can give
is a reflection of the sun
Watch, son, watch, son, watch,
son, watch, son, watch
I told you it's timeless,
I'm just getting started
Watch, son, watch, son, watch,
son, watch, son, watch
I told you it's timeless,
I'm just getting started
My peeps is my peeps, my fam is my fam
For fear of other friends,
I give a good goddamn
Cause warm currents and
cold currents,
they come and go
For some, when they current,
become the asshole
The currency comes,
cash ebb to cash flow
They buzz from the current
till the lights get low
You so vain,
you think it's all about you now, so
Your whole rationale gets ir rational
But when the veins show,
how the trade winds blow
So when Danger Mouse cuts loose,
the pin fall
You actin' brand new,
it eventually gets old
And problems become
compounded tenfold
Cause like Nana says
and we make sure it's true
You gon' need me way before I need you
So if I'm out of sight,
out of mind, I'm a bitch
Outta touch, outta reach,
forgive, never forget me
Watch son, watch son, watch
Hit it, watch son, watch son
Check it, watch, check it
Watch son, watch son, watch
You already finished,
I'm just getting started
Watch son, watch son, watch
Watch son, watch son, watch
Check it, watch son, watch son, watch
I'm already finished, I'm just getting started
I will be the future, I'm already present
My calling is legend, my fall is a legend
I look to the Lord
cause he taught me a lesson
The fortune is faulty,
you're forcing affection
Even if my want for it lessened
I'd still want it more than the rest does
Check it, I'd honestly auction possessions
For the art to be omnipresent
A well -known peasant
with well -told lectures
My songs are present, my lone profession
The difference between me and you is
I know I'll do this
If you think this'll make you rich,
then you're stupid
You've been listening to
too much of the blueprint
Buy your Maybach,
should not make your to -do list
But years after you come back
to your senses
I'll be there tapping the
pen cap to the music
Watch, son, watch, son, watch
Watch, son, watch, son, watch
Watch, son, watch, son, watch
I'll make you a promise,
I'm just getting started
Watch, son, watch, son, watch
Watch, son, watch, son, watch
Watch, watch, son, watch
I'll make you a promise,
I'm just getting started
They don't even know, man, watch
I got it all planned out,
you know what saying
I got my own little dance
for the whole thing, you know
It's gonna take them a
few times to even get it
You know what I'm saying?
Watch, son, watch
Kinda like that John Wall thing,
but different, you know
You're gonna catch it on YouTube,
man
I always wanted my own little YouTube dance,
for real
Ha!
