This is how we will live in free-dom
To anyone who wants
To celebrate from where they came
To the outcome
Then from now
What a change
Pick up the pace
No way I can slow it down
Give me a minute of your time
I can guarantee
All things work for who believe
All it takes is the faith of mustard seed
Who can stop what was meant for me
For me
Yeah this for me
For me
And I ain’t for free
For me

For me
And I ain’t for free

You can try but I won’t stop won’t stop

Nobody’s safe
Nobody’s safe (nobody’s safe)

Nobody's safe
As soon as we step out the cage
We raising all of the stakes
Make no mistake
Either you stay in your place
Or we putting you on a plate
Look at our face
We put the fear in the dirt
We had to struggle for change
Pick up the pace
We put in infinite work
That's why we stay getting paid

Y'all running late
We moving on to the next
You still been stuck in the phase
This no debate
We draw the line in the sand
We say it straight to your face
They underrate
Till we put the team on our back
We took the city to state
What it's gone take
Another S on our chest
Another beat in the grave

We innovate
We always switching it up
They can't predict what we say
Come out the cave
They see the blood on our shirt
They see the teeth in the face
They watching tape
Still tryna figure us out
They think we came here to play
They sending snakes
They tryna give us the curse
They want us taking the bait

But that's okay
We keep on dodging the bull
We keep on saying olay
Blocking the way
Thinking we flip it in reverse
But we keep rushing the gate
Stopping the reign
We know they sit on the throne
It's looking easy to take
We not afraid
We put the fear in they bones
Ain't no more running away

They tryna trace
They try follow our steps
They tryna copy the wave
Boy that's so lame
That's why they keep getting curved
You gotta stay in your lane
They wanna claim
That we not giving them work
Like this is minimum wage
Boy is you crazy
Why you keep feeding the beast
Now that you opened the cage

Nobody safe (Nobody safe)
I been tryna tell em don't start
Nobody safe
If you come then please don't drop your guard
Nobody safe
If you come y'all messing with a star
Nobody safe

Nobody safe
Ooh, yeah yeah
Nobody safe
Ooh, yeah yeah
Nobody safe (Nobody safe)

Know I do this
For my folks
For my momma
And my pops
I don't care if you the cops
Anybody could get boxed
If you aiming
For my head
Then you better take your shot
If you miss
Then this fist
Gone be cleansing your clock

I don't care if you the prez
Or the feds
Or an op
If I stretch
Out these hands
Then prepared
To get rocked
If your friends
Said that you
Had a chance
Understand
That they probably
Was never your friends
They my fans

Jumped in the ring
And I started swinging
Came from the jungles
Of drunken demons
Fighting them off
In the Coliseum
Studied and learned
How to target weakness
That's why your team
Would do better beefing
With someone else
Who is probably vegan
Touch me and lose every
Single finger
Touch me and watch how
I turn the scene into a

Massacre
As soon you have
The nerve
To try to step to me
I will snatch
Your turf
And matter fact
Scratch that
Imma snatch your earth
You try to breathe
And see how
The asthma works
We don't compete
I'm not in a class with earth
My boys
Are down to ball
If I say the word
The team
Is down the hall
If I call disturbed
I snap
And best believe
That a mass occurs

Nobody safe (Nobody safe)
I been tryna tell em don't start
Nobody safe
If you come then please don’t drop your guard
Nobody safe
If you come y'all messing with a star
Nobody safe

Nobody safe
Ooh, yeah yeah
Nobody safe
Ooh, yeah yeah
Nobody safe (Nobody safe)

I’m not catching fades anymore
Gotta keep my hands clean
When they come for the boy
Keep it smooth like a don
Making moves in the dark
‘Cause I learned how to swim
In a pool full of sharks
Now they cautious
‘Cause they can’t read all his motions
How the kid never switch codes
But he code switch
Focused
Staring down your team
With a frozen ice cold look
That could end the summer solstice
‘Cause
I’m more like the top dawg
Keep on running game
And the gang will accost y’all
I be calling plays
From a plane while I’m off court
Boy we ain’t the same
You a lame I’m a mobster

‘Cause actually
I’m the top dawg on stat sheet
Off court
But I call plays for the athletes
Laughing
When the cop cars try to catch me
‘Cause I rode off in a taxi
Back seat
With my feet up I’m relaxing
Classy
Singing Figueroa with no accent
Dancing
While I pull strings from the streets and
Do it all with a straight face

I’m the kingpin
Top dawg
Top floor
Boss mode
I’m the kingpin
Show stopper
Top dollar
Godfather
I’m the kingpin

They know I’m a dog
And a beast man
Yeah I keep the peace
With a peace man
I ain’t got no time for appeasement
Why would I respond to a pawn
I’m the
Hold up
If I let my dogs off the leash
Then
You might want
To get out of dodge
By the evening
Honestly
They can smell the blood
And the beef and
They don’t leave
Anything behind
After eating
I can see you soft
Ever thought ‘bout retreating
If you never have
Then they’ll give you a reason
Better watch your tone
Lose your bass when your speaking
Underneath the mask
Is the wrath of a
Breathe man
When you learn how to smile in they face
Then go cut throat
Then they wanna call you a con
When the blood cold
I remember starving while y’all had a truckload
Now I’m with the mob with the gall and the gusto

‘Cause actually
I’m the top dawg on stat sheet
Off court
But I call plays for the athletes
Laughing
When the cop cars try to catch me
‘Cause I rode off in a taxi
Back seat
With my feet up I’m relaxing
Classy
Singing Figueroa with no accent
Dancing
While I pull strings from the streets and
Do it all with a straight face

I’m the kingpin
Top dawg
Top floor
Boss mode
I’m the kingpin
Show stopper
Top dollar
Godfather
I’m the kingpin
