[Verse 1: Kevin Abstract]

I'm from the south side of Corpus

Where niggas steady recording

Or they push a little green thinking they gon' live enormous

See you never make it out

Forever on ya momma's couch

Your dreams are way too big, your friends will keep ya ass in doubt

Then you'll probably get in debt

Before you get your first check

Niggas shooting out here ain't even in the projects

And they cussing teachers out

Think they got it figured out

They pulling triggers, killing niggas, hateful words come out they mouth

Most the girls is all hoes

Barely wearing any clothes

I ain't hating I'm just taking you to the city that made me grow

Same city that made me go

Same city where angels glow

Same city where they bump my shit like top 20 hits and damn sure gon' make me blow

Yup, but within time, in time

I'mma grind for the city I'mma make the world mine

Wise words from my dad

Wise words is what he said

So I'm swerving through the city with some syrup on my lap, yap!


[Hook: Kevin Abstract]

I came to rule the world, I came to rule the world

I plan to rule the world, I plan to rule the world

I came to rule the world, I came to rule the world

I plan to rule the world, I plan to rule the world this time


[Verse 2: Vic Mensa]

Scribble my name on this paper, Funny in class I used to get in trouble for forgetting it

These days can't help but repeating it hoping you don't forget me

Innanet

Real disco shit

Probably hitcho chick

Yo bitch

Know Vic

Running on glass

The city where I'm from tryna save yo neck

Might slit yo shit, watch

Where you walking

Incase you walking where you shouldn't be

Cause niggas be on dummy g

That's if you in my hood atleast

I used to dream of moving out the city before I hit my teens

Now I can't even sleep unless I pop a xan and hit my lean

Looking for something dodging ops patrolling (?)

Hope my people get this paper

Profit pockets Broke and stuck in

Fucking low end in come housing

Hopping out with no discussion

BOOM BOOM BOOM

You getting hit if you ain't ducking

Just had a banger pulled out on me this week

Fuck dude I'm candy flipping tripping even tho it ain't sweet

My niggas getting it at some bout save money bet they know me

Listening to the dragon

Driving round the city sippin some medice from my cabinet

Save Money


[Hook: Kevin Abstract]


[Verse 3: MiC Kurb]

Ima point you out some flaws, niggas losing they jobs

Started with my momma now my uncle having it hard

Niggas double my age, is caged behind bars, for spitting

Bout how the system don't follow they own laws

Use it to my advantage, kinda hard just to handle

Brotha plan it, cuz every lil brotha gon have to man up

You could sit down, like a bitch now, in a big crowd or stand up

And join the other leaders that's preaching just what they meaning

People change with the seasons, no one focused on freedom

Scary I been legendary since the boy was a fetus

Mastered the whole flow, before the boy was a fro head

Grow dreads, I be so wrecked niggas don't even know blessed, hopeless

So vex with no checks

My work place weak so what I'mma do next?

Make a song with my broadies, nobody really know me

We could take it to the courts and my niggas be screaming Kobe, you owe me
