Now Look - Intellectual

[Hook: XV]

They try to say that I won't make it to the top

And now look

They try to say that I won't ever get my spot

And now look

They try to hate while they all wait for me to drop

And now look

I just think that y'all should stop

Now look

See, I'm dope like Ves Saint Laurent, cause you ain't gotta say why

My home team was hating so my ear is all I play by

Music keeps me down to Earth, but I still hope my fame rise

Cause no one wants to be next to a black man unless you J5

See I'm trying to be Jay tall, you cool being Ye high

I take it to the max like a student that goes to Bayside

Get counterfeit markers, all these niggas giving me fake fives

That want to put a dot on my head, like lower-case i's

The game is crazy cause I know in that they try

To have a nigga looking dumb, promoting like St Ives

I ride till the wheels fall off, you ride till the tank's dry

And I know success is like a stopwatch, it takes time

I'm just like that's all you, on you

I ain't tripping, stacking chips in Palms Room

With a latin chick to put my calls through

Play some X-Box, read some comics, honest, that's all hoff do

But haters still want beef knowing I'm sick, raw food

And my ex girl texted me saying I saw you

Found out that I got another partner like Saw II

They done seen how I developed from that dark room

And sharks came out that water like you caught 'em with a harpoon

They dropped the ball too, now Vizzy got it

I'm a clock tower, I got my city watching

So little time, so many options

That girl is fine, but I know she plotting

Got bullied by the jocks and now I stop as they broads jocking

That front row filled with all they girls you know that's karma knocking

Freeze frame, picture it

Check your '03 yearbook, they predicted it
