This is for the soldiers the see the sun
At midnight, ya dig
Let me slow down (it's so incredible)
[Rick Ross Verse]
I go to the grave before I be a bitch nigga
Better behave, you're dealin' with some rich niggas
We the lost symbols, speak in cryptic codes
Ancient wisdom, valuable like gifts of gold
I embark on life, my path is all math
I understand the codes these hackers can't crack
I understand that folks expect me to fold
Community control to violate parole
I won't fail, but a lot of men will
I'm iconic in the field, like Solomon's Seal
Uh, it's just an intro
Allow my flow time to sink into the temple
Free Mason, freelancer, free agents, we faster
Big contracts, big contractors
Built pyramids, period we masters
No caterpillars, it was just a lot of niggas
A lot of great thinkers and a lot of great inventors
All white mansion, I'm the child of God
All black diamonds, times were hard
New Rolls Royce
Guess you made it, nigga
All white neighborhoods, you they favorite nigga
My top back like J.F.K.
They wanna push my top back like J.F.K.
So, so I J.F.K.
Join Forces with the kings and we ate all day
Right now I could rewrite history
I stopped writin so f*ck it, I'll do it mentally
[Rick Ross & John Legend Chorus (x2)]
I go to the grave before I be a bitch nigga
Better behave, you're dealin' with some rich niggas
Started in the ghetto, now we worldwide
Multiplying and I pray to God we never die
[Jay-Z Verse]
Niggas couldnâ€Â™t do nothing with me they put the devil on me
I would have preferred if niggas would squeeze the metal on me
Rumors of Lucifer, I donâ€Â™t know who to trust
Whole world want my demise, turn my music up
Here me clearly
If yâ€Â™all niggas fear me, just say yâ€Â™all fear me
f*ck all these fairy tales, go to hell this is God engineering
This is a Hail Mary pass, yâ€Â™all interfering
He without sin shall cast the first stone
So yâ€Â™all check in the mirror, double check your appearance
Bitch I said I was amazing
Not that Iâ€Â™m a Mason
Itâ€Â™s amazing that I made it through the maze that I was in
Lord forgive me I never wouldâ€Â™ve made it without sin
Holy Water, my face in the basin
Diamonds in my rosary shows he forgave him
Bitch Iâ€Â™m red hot, Iâ€Â™m on my third six but the devil, Iâ€Â™m not
My Jesus piece flooded but thou shall not covet
Keep your eyes off my cupboard
Iâ€Â™m a bad motherf*cker, itâ€Â™s Hov just say you love it
[Chorus]
If I ever die, never let it be said I didn't win
Never, never say
Never say Legend didn't go in (Imma go in)
I just wanna die on top of the world
Makin' love to my favorite girl
Makin' beautiful music, we makin' a movie
We knew we was born to do it
