[Laws]

Can’t afford a Maybach, can’t afford to quit

Tellin' me who I sound like, you aren’t tellin' me shit

I've gone too far, now I’m part of the horizon

Rappers run shit, just wait till I start flyin'

I’m jumpin' off the ledge with my arms out

I’m not scared of the drop, know what I’m talkin' about?

See me in the air and pledge allegiance

These legends lookin' at me like thank you Jesus

Off co-signs and loans, I could find a home

J. League made a crown and designed a throne

We both up-and-comers but y’all sleepin' in musician shit

My first album gonna be some real musician shit

Benny and the Jets, y’all still in 16’s

Y’all ain’t ready for me yet, I'mma do a 32 with a 20 bar intro Check your parents’ vinyls, find out what I’m into

I refuse to chuck and job, I refuse to minstrel

Got nothin' to be heated 'bout, let me keep it simple

People wonderin' if I’m that bad on the mic

You wanna know? Go and ask Khalil, Cannon and Knight

And then go and pour a little Moward for these dead poets

I got these critics ravin', I Edgar Allen Poe it

There some things that money can’t buy

Not a guest in your ear but respect from your peers

And I’m standin' on the start of somethin' great

So if you think I don’t deserve the fortune, come debate

And tell me how your man got a tape

And his flow is the best you’ve seen

It keep you high like it get you green

If you think 4:57’s pleasant and I was representin'

Just wait until my next two things

I got to do it with a legend and my picture in a mag

Soon as you make comparisons, I switch it on your ass

Who I sound like today? Eenie-meanie-minee-mo

I got presents like X-Mas, I’m the shit, Heidi ho

I don’t know any living human being breathin' oxygen

And put it on the line and have his shine be a constant thing

Because my money on my mind

And these shawties wanna back it up

Because I’m on my grind, when inspiration hit me

I'm get rich or die tryin' 50

I been dope since I was writin' squigglies

I couldn't form a sentence, was never on my period

Always was told stop but I was never hearin' it

I tuned ‘em out, kept writing so severe

Kinda like a yacht, too pricy for my peers

I made ‘em all believers through radio receivers

My skill was never ever debated on my features

I'mma sure bet ‘cause one line did ‘em all

Rest in peace Punisher, my one mic settle scores

Bars like javelins, criticize never more

Opportunity’s hammerin', think I need to get the door

'Cause y’all Batman and I’m Rorschach

When Laws on, think Paul and John four track

The kid’s got variety like all that

Sicker than a bald cat, overgrown ball cap

Hospital gown, get well soon balloons

But on a lighter note like the room’s gettin' smaller

Maybe I’m gettin' bigger, took over the net in two months

How you figure? Got these other spitters barely hangin' on

Like the clothes of a wigger

And my live show crowd's throwin' bows in the center

I’m callin' up my mother, she knows her son is a winner

Tellin' me to change the world but be home for your dinner

And rap was my lady but she would never take it slow

Well now she needs savin', well I ain't Captain Save A Hoe

So if I switch, then I did it on purpose

I murdered this, not even my breakdowns are nervous
