[Verse 1]

I try to be greater than the gods but created my own problem

Now, I have deflated all the drama

I can move on and leave these haters in astonishment

Switch the game and leave some craters in the genre

Their ain't no money in my pockets to invest

But what’s the fun in tightrope walkin with no net

I’m cocky but these negative thoughts are in my head

Cause optimism has the oppositе effect

Yea, wе all know that I drop to grip albums

Heads throbbin in acknowledgement, bouncin

You think that he can out-do himself

With the way I’ve been workin, that’s not a big challenge

You ain't fuckin with where I been

The road to get here’s been nothing but peerless

I grind till my mind’s stuck in delirium

Stuck in a lab, I ain't conductin experiments


[Chorus]

Who the hell do you think I am

Please tell who you think I am

I can change in a blink I am (I am, I am…)

Universal (universal…)

Use the, universe for my rehearsal


[Bridge]

I expose the fire (?)

Sure they had only last offer

This watch me in a diorama, of my entire genre

I lost my focus, feeling claustrophobic

It didn’t last too long, I created a universe in a shoe box


[Verse 2]

They say no one’s that amazing

You go at that pace you riskin over saturation

The things that I make at a frequent rate

You would think me and the devil got an agreement made (huh)

What I’m doing is intentional you dig it

I ain't interested in professional opinion

For lots of reasons, your business models weak and

I make lots of music, now why would I not release it

I’m trynna build with silent bricks

They trynna worship false gods in this

Chasin broads and riches, I know the odds to win

So imma play the tortoise, water my crops a bit

I been planning before the famine affected me

It happened expectedly, I have to protect my seeds

Stay persistent, trainin viciously

This year I’m facin vicious, I dig those irrigation ditches deep


[Chorus]

Who the hell do you think I am (I am, I am…)

Please tell who you think I am (I am, I am…)

I can change in a blink I am (I am, I am…)

Universal (universal…)
