Lighters

This one's for you and me, living out our dreams

We're all right where we should be

With my arms out wide I open my eyes

And now all I wanna see

Is a sky full of lighters

A sky full of lightersBy the time you hear this I will have already spiraled up

I would never do nothing to let you cowards fuck my world up

If I was you, I would duck, or get struck like lightening,

Fighters keep fighting, put your lighters up, point 'em' skyward uh

Had a dream I was king, I woke up, still king

This rap game's nipple is mine for the milking,

Till nobody else even fucking feels me, till' it kills me

I swear to god I'll be the fucking illest in this music

There is or there ever will be, disagree?

Feel free, but from now on I'm refusing to ever give up

Only thing I ever gave up's using no more excuses

Excuse me if my head is too big for this building

And pardon me if I'm a cocky prick but you cocks are slick

Poppin' shit on how you flipped ya life around, crock-o-shit

Who you dicks try to kid, flipped dick, you did the opposite

You stayed the same, 'cause cock backwards is still cock you pricks

I love it when I tell 'em shove it

Cause it wasn't that long ago when Marshall sat, luster lacked, lustered

'Cause he couldn't cut mustard, muster up nothing

Brain fuzzy, 'cause he's buzzin', woke up from that buzz

Now you wonder why he does it, how he does it

Wasn't 'cause he had buzzards circle around his head

Waiting for him to drop dead, was it?

Or was it, 'cause them bitches wrote him off

Little hussy ass buzzards, fuck it, guess it doesn't matter now, does it

What difference it make?

What it take to get it through your thick skulls

As if this ain't some bullshit

People don't usually come back this way

From a place that was dark as I was in

Just to get to this place

Now let these words be like a switch blade to a haters rib cage

And let it be known from this day forward

I wanna just say thanks 'cause your hate is what gave me the strength

So let 'em bic's raise 'cause I came with five nine

But I feel like I'm six eightThis one's for you and me, living out our dreams

We're all right where we should be

With my arms out wide I open my eyes

And now all I wanna see

Is a sky full of lighters

A sky full of lightersBy the time you hear this I'll probably already be outtie

I advance like going from toting iron

To going and buying four or five of the homies the iron man Audi

My daddy told me slow down, boy, you goin' to blow it

And I ain't gotta stop the beat a minute

To tell Shady I love him the same way that he did Dr.Dre on the Chronic

Tell him how real he is or how high I am

Or how I would kill for him for him to know it

I cried plenty tears, my daddy got a bad back

So it's only right that I right

Till he can march right

Into that post office and tell 'em to hang it up

Now his career's Lebron's jersey in twenty years

I'll stop when I'm at the very top

You shitted on me on your way up

It's 'bout to be a scary drop

Cause what goes up must come down

You going down on something you don't wanna see like a hairy box

Every hour, happy hour now

Life is wacky now

Used to have to eat the cat to get the pussy

Now I'm just the cats meow, ow

Classic cow, always down for the catch weight like Pacquiao

Y'all are doomed

I remember when T-Pain ain't wanna work with me

My car starts itself, parks itself and auto-tunes

'Cause now I'm in the Aston

I went from having my city locked up

To getting treated like Kwame Kilpatrick

And now I'm fantastic

Compared to a weed high

And y'all niggas just gossipin' like bitches on a radio and TV

See me, we fly

Y'all buggin' out like Wendy Williams staring at a bee-hive

And how real is that

I remember signing my first deal

And now I'm the second best I can deal with that

Now Bruno can show his ass, without the MTV awards gagYou and I know what it's like to be kicked down

Forced to fight, but tonight we're alright

So hold up your light, let it shine 'causeThis one's for you and me, living out our dreams

We're all right where we should be

With my arms out wide I open my eyes

And now all I wanna see

Is a sky full of lighters

A sky full of lighters
