Verse 1
Em
Now when they see us in the streets,
all they want to do is take pics,
G
and I'm like, okay, okay.
Em
And when they hear us on the feet,
all they want to do is make hits,
G
and I'm like, okay, okay.
Em
And if you're feelin' how I'm feelin',
now the world should be, perfectly,
on fire like a third degree.
A
And suddenly, shawty, we got so high,
Em
firefly.
Skateboardin' down at Washington Square,
lookin' for quarters, maybe a quarter,
G
Em
falafel for dinner, uh.
I'm so broke,
man, scholarship apologin'
Facebook messages from
G
Em
college kids who hollerin'
Girls like, we love you, we go to LSU
You gotta do a show
G
Em
so we can come and molest you
This rap stuff is magic
A
I used to get Carl Oreo and faggot
Em
I used to get more laughs
when I got laughed at
G
Oh, you got a mixtape, that's fantastic
Em
But everybody thought it was jokes,
though
They half right, the joke is I got flow
G
Em
So don't act like you ain't
sittin' there
with your friends like it can't be
I know Donald Gluck, but he weak,
G
man, he can't be
Em
I'm still not down, but I up the ante
A
Me and hip -hop,
G
that black Sid and Nancy
Em
When they in the streets
All they wanna do is take things
G
And I'm like, okay, yeah
Em
When they hear us on the beat
All they wanna do is make things
G
And I'm like, okay, yeah
Em
And if you're feelin'
how I'm feelin'
I would want you to be
Perfectly
G
A fire like a third degree
Em
A
And suddenly Shawty, we got so high
Em
It's hard to make hold of footsteps
you following
G
Especially when your niggas
Em
look like Carlton
The pretty girls using skin so soft
Only be liking black dudes
G
Em
with their hats broke off
Nigga you act too soft
Fuck you I'm from
the projects
My momma's just working
G
to give me options
Em
No live shows cause
I can't find sponsors
A
For the only black kid at
G
a Suvion concert
Em
Yeah so what you gon' do man
You don't speak to the hood man
G
Em
If I was given one chance I think I could
These black kids want something new,
I swear it
Something they wanna say
G
Em
but couldn't cause they embarrassed
All I do is make the stuff
I woulda liked
Reference things I wanna watch,
G
Em
reference girls I wanna fight
Now I'm firefly like a burning kite
A
G
Em
And use a fake buck like a fleshlight
Even dudes who like me
straight lookin' at me crazy
Like, how the hell you drop an EP
G
Em
and meet Jay -Z?
Girls who used to tell me
I ain't cool enough
Now text me pics sayin'
G
Em
you can tear this up
I don't really like shades,
big rams, or jewelry
G
But getting time a day from a model
Em
is new to me
Being me isn't as hard
as it used to be
A
Now everyone sing the chorus,
G
Em
man, you do it so beautifully
Now in the streets
All they wanna do is take flicks
G
And I'm like, okay, yeah
Em
And when they hear us on the beat
All they wanna do is make hits
G
And I'm like, okay, yeah, okay
Em
And if you're feeling how I'm feeling
Now the world should be
G
perfectly fire like a third degree
Em
A
And suddenly, shawty, we got so high
Em
Right inside
All they wanna do is take pics,
and I'm like, okay
G
Em
And when they hear us on the beat
All they wanna do is make hits,
and I'm like, okay
G
Em
And if you're feelin' healthy,
then now the world should be
Perfectly on fire like a third degree
A
And suddenly, shawty, we got so high you
