One 4 ages

Statik Selektah
Uh

Respect is earned, take the crown, this is one for ages
And I don't plan on slowin' down, 'cause we chasin' greatness
Another day, another chance that I got to make it
They ain't wanna give it up, so we had to take it
The glory don't feel as good without the hardship
And if I got it, then you got it, so we all rich
Hold it down for the fam, it's important
I can't let none of my people down, they supportin', uh
Turned a shoulder to the naysayers
I'm a mic slayer, my aura's well-protected by tight layers
About-face, I'm seein' dollar signs in my vision
But don't be blinded by the dollar signs, keep the vision
And if you can't take the heat, then get up out the kitchen
We play full-court pressure, all of my niggas blitzin'
When one door close, another opens
We used to have conversations 'bout who was the dopest
Now I'm the one puttin' 'em on notice
My head up, remain focused
Get my bread up to make toasts-es
Now they hear my rhymes and they throw roses
Got my weight up and finally got motion
Grind like I got five jobs, been qualified
Since the days of i
Pods, while you boys tryhard
In line hard, we lionhearted
Don't try to make the wrong move, we make chess moves
You'll get outsmarted
Step and overcome, keep the weapon cocked
Rockin' treasure rocks, dumpin' nonstop
Cookin' up bricks from extra pots, watch 'em line up
Ain't no need for no extra stops, we got hip-hop, find us
You never know when your time's up
So every day that I'm breathin', it's my time, bruh
We made runs through the difficulties
And came out on the other end with bridges more bulky
As we continue to put product in more countries
A purist; I hold the art to my heart closely
Endurance; name a mic I ain't left smokin'
And on the court, I ain't the one you wanna leave open
Shatterin' backboards, close the Maybach door
They ain't let us in the front, we took the backdoor
Supreme Dump Legend Number 7
They can't stop the reign like Shaq
I'ma just keep it bailin'
