[Intro]

(sduolc eht ni s'daeH)

[Verse 1]

Calmly feel myself evolving

Appalling so much, I'm not divulging

Been stalling, I think I hear applauding, they're calling

Mixtapes aren't my thing, but it's been awfully exhausting

Hanging on to songs this long is daunting (Yeah)

Which caused me to have to make a call I thought was ballsy

Resulting in what you see today, proceed indulging

As always, the one-trick pony's here, so quit your sulking

Born efficient, got ambition, sorta vicious, yup, that's me (Woo)

Not artistic, unrealistic, chauvinistic, not those things

Go the distance, so prolific, posts are cryptic, move swiftly

Unsubmissive, the king of mischief, the golden ticket, rare sight to see (Lord!)

I stay committed, embrace the rigid, I'm playful with it, yeah, basically

Too great to mimic, you hate, you're bitter, no favoritism, that's fine with me

Create the riddles, portrayed uncivil, unsafe a little, oh, yes, indeed

It's plain and simple, I'm far from brittle, unbreakable, you following?

I'm Bruce Willis in a train wreck

I'm like tradin' in your car for a new jet

I'm like havin' a boss getting upset

'Cause you asked him for less on your paycheck

I'm like doin' headstands with a broke neck

I'm like watchin' your kid take his first steps

I'm like sayin' Bill Gates couldn't pay rent 'cause he's too broke—

[Break]

Where am I goin' with this?

[Verse 2]

Unbelievable, yes, yes, inconceivable

See myself as fairly reasonable

But at times I can be stubborn, so

If I have to, I will rock the boat

I don't tend to take the easy road

That's just not the way I like to roll

What you think's probably unfeasible

I've done already a hundredfold

A hundredfold, it's probable

That I might press the envelope

Ideas so astronomical

Sometimes I find 'em comical

Yeah, incomparable

Replay value phenomenal

Beat selection remarkable

Slowing Nate down, impossible

I don't rock no Rollies

I don't hang around no phonies (Nope)

I don't really got no trophies

I don't know why God chose me (I don't know)

Got somethin' in the cup, ain't codeine (Never)

Change my style, they told me

Now they come around like, "Homie"

Man, y'all better back up slowly, back up slowly (Woo)

Who are you kiddin'?

How could you doubt me? I've always delivered

Rippin' the teeth out of the back of my mouth's

The closest you get to my wisdom

See, my initial thought was to wait

But what can I say? I had to come visit

Check on you guys, you doin' alright?

Your year really sucked? Yeah, that's what I figured

They cover they heads up whenever I drop

Shake the whole industry, put 'em in shock

Come out the clouds like a meteor rock

Then land on the earth like, "Ready or not?"

Ain't no one like me, the cream of the crop

Don't even front, better give me some props

I pick up your body and throw it a block

Okay, I admit it, that's over the top, not

Deer in the headlight looks

Every time I step my foot

On the ground, I get mistook for a lame

With no weight to his name

Ground just shook, let's not beat around the bush

Even my B-sides throw 'em off like, "How's he do it?"

Some say I'm a great influence

I don't know about that, but I did do the best I could

[Bridge]

"Hollywood, Hollywood

Hope Nate doesn't go Hollywood"

You think that, you don't know me good

You think that, you don't know me good

"Hollywood, Hollywood

Hope Nate doesn't go Hollywood"

You think that, you don't know me good

You think that, you don't know me—

[Outro]

I–I–I—, I always advance

Say how I feel, you know where I stand (Woo)

Raisin' the bar, I gotta expand

Top of the charts, I'm settin' up camp

Pound in my stakes, I put up my tent

Shoot for the stars, they fall in my hand (Woo)

Stick to my guns, I don't even flinch

Can push all you want, ain't movin' an inch (Oh)

I rarely miss, you know I'm relentless

Ain't got a choice, no way to prevent it (Woo)

Just who I am, and I don't regret it

See what I want and then I go get it

Followed my gut, I'm happy I did it

Beat all the odds, I ain't got no limits (Ayy)

Cannot be stopped, you payin' attention?

I ain't gotta say it, they know where my head is

They know where my head is
