[Intro]

Uh

Yeah, you know?

Shit is wild... ha-ha

Can't complain though, I'm alive

Healthy and all of that

Know what I'm saying? Just tryna do my thing

Praise to all

Bust it


[Verse 1]

That nigga Slick Rick said,."I waited long time, sweating it

I got jerked but now I'm getting it"

Hazy like asthma, bizarre disaster

Stress almost held me down from being a master

The pastor, preacher, poet, a teacher

"It's been so long" like Monifah

Believe that, I'm needed in rapping, I breathe this

Some pick up a microphone and can't even achieve this

Oscar award-winning, your shit? I'm bored with it

Stop copycatting, son (Why?) 'Cause your dawg did it

Get your own lingo, make up your own jingle

Ten years later, you be biting my single

Preemo, take it downtown swinging

Intervening on the board, sensimill' steaming

Yeah, catch the vibe like a tribal dance

In the clubs, on the low with the b-boy stance

Money rubbing with a shorty, got bumped by a chump

Tell him, "Step off, I'm doing the Hump”


[Chorus]

Yeah, I say

It's my world, and I won't stop

And if you stand in my way, you're bound to get dropped, say…


[Verse 2]

Some wish that I was gone 'cause they know I'ma win

In a minute, I'll be making six G's times ten

I'm the computer, printing out data, take notes

Then analyze the information, and press send

Freaky like porno, Ron Jeremy saw no

Obstacle or pussy to stop him from boning a ho

Me and the mic double-trouble, chicks look at us like twins

All lovable and huggable

Prognosis: on the mic, I choke out

Had the same effects from coughing, blowing smoke out

Architect, rap technician, man, listen

It's no doubt you gonna pump this in your system

My skills ill, and all of that above

Confidence, I'm not worried 'bout a street buzz

I'm O.C., who you? I never heard of ya

Get out my face 'fore I turn into a motherfucking murderer

I want the green like endo

A mansion, a car, a wife who's never been a bimbo

Too much to ask? Well, to me, that's simple

Want to retire on the yacht called the SS Minnow


[Chorus]

I say it's my world, and I won't stop

And if you stand in my way, you're bound to get dropped

Say, it's my world, and I won't stop

And if you stand in my way, you're bound to get dropped

Say, it's my world, and I won't stop

And if you stand in my way, you're bound to get dropped

Say, it's my world, and I won't stop

And if you stand in my way, you're bound to get dropped


[Verse 3]

Uh, top choice, this here nigga got poise

Ain't a man alive who could stop my noise

I snatch a star from the sky, spark up your lye with it

You stand astounded, wondering how I did it

Now you're starstruck like I truck gold

Treating me like a nigga having a million records sold

Now a starchild, phenomenon like the X-Files

Rappers know I'm coming, so they go in exile

Czar in this rap shit, cumming on your mattress

Microphone fiend, I make beats do backflips

Fear me like genocide, serious

How I do it through your stereo, mysterious

O.C. do demolition near competition

Like robot Kong on a destroy mission

A matter of life and death, you try to fight for breath

I snatch your heart from a slice through your chest

Who the best from New York to Bogotá?

Who got face, thinking they scare me with a scar? Shit

What I be bringing is a terrible sight

A performance never again performed on the mic


[Chorus]

I say, it's my world, and I won't stop

And if you stand in my way, you're bound to get dropped

Say, it's my world, and I won't stop

And if you stand in my way, you're bound to get dropped

Say, it's my world, and I won't stop

And if you stand in my way, you're bound to get dropped

Say, it's my world, and I won't stop

And if you stand in my way, you're bound to get dropped

Say, it's my world

It's my world
