[Verse 1]

Chess type best, I'm rapping on this heat

I'm rapping, freestyling 'cause all I do is win

But of course I get the haters, dawg

That hate on all my words, they whine (Like?)

I don't really know why 'cause I'm just a chill guy, yeah

I just wanna hide, yeah, from this fame and this light, yeah

Even though I'm not there yet, yeah

I know where I'm headed, yeah, I know where I'm going, yeah

That's Heaven, that's why God's in my life, God's in my life

Yeah, I got the only light, yeah

Thirty seconds in, I'm rapping, I'm freestyling

I'm really gonna show how I make it

I'm really gonna show how I never fake it

'Cause I'm CALICO, always gonna show, always gonna know

How I flow, flow, flow, 1 of 10, hoe

Shock 'em, whoa, never slow, oh, I know

C West is on the rise on the front

With a hoe, never slow, never back down

Always gonna really know how I spit and how I throw

Yeah, it's really kinda hard, not for me

It’s kinda part of the journey, it's concerning

I'm earning, always learning, always searching

For an opportunity, I'll make it and you'll see

Just be me, now let me rap, let me speak

On this chess type beat

Yeah, you're playing Checkers, I'm playing Chess

I don't really know how, but I'm never gonna rest

'Cause I'm C West, early mornings late nights

Hopping on a different flight, Dubai, nice to meet ya

I want some height like Burj Khalifa

Slimm thick baddies, hit me up (Damn)

I don't know why I said that but, "Hi"


[Bridge]

Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah

Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah

Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, hah

Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah

Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah

Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, hah


[Verse 2]

Yeah, that's a wrap, I'm gonna rap really fast

So, I'm really gonna make it 'cause I’m never gonna fake it (Yeah, yeah)

And you're never gonna make it if you hate the way I made it

'Cause I'm CALICO and I'm never gonna slow (Damn)

And I'm never gonna really wanna be the one to go (No)

Hoe, hoe, never gonna stop, never stopping slow (No)

Never get a chance, never break a heart

Never catch me, no, never gonna miss

Never gonna break, never gonna wait

Never gonna hate the way I really wanna

Fall to fate, date, take a plate of my words (Yeah, yeah)

Never stopping to search, yeah, release the merch

C West has just started, hah, one day he will be heard


[Outro]

Haha, alright, cut

Yeah, see ya
