"Welcome to the New York Port Authority. Exits are in the back, on the left and right."
You know me, I'm a upscale character
Haters, we ain't mad at ya
To the penthouse we go
It's time to grind now, so we gotta shine now
Never take a time out
Leave 'em in the danger zone
You know me, I'm a upscale character
There is not a challenger
To the front page we go
It's time to grind now, so we gotta shine now
Never take a time out
Now you're in the danger zone
They in the danger zone
I'm in a major zone
They stereotype me, they thought my name Jerome
Because my skin is dark, I witness art
Watch me as I come up from the bottom and ascend the charts, and then I spark
I play this right
Fork in the road, I made a right
Try to take off while them haters just delay the flight
I know you watchin' me
Them other boys sloppy
My flow is dead on, now where's the autopsy?
Whores watch me, say hello to my stainless,
Got my hand in the cookie jar, visions of being famous, I'm saying
You know me, I'm a upscale character
Haters, we ain't mad at ya
To the penthouse we go
It's time to grind now, so we gotta shine now
Never take a time out
Leave 'em in the danger zone
You know me, I'm a upscale character
There is not a challenger
To the front page we go
It's time to grind now, so we gotta shine now
Never take a time out
Now you're in the danger zone
Yeah, my composition is remarkable
I am a molecule, they are just a particle
And this a article, so you can read all about it
And are they messing with us? I doubt it
The road less traveled, I'm sorry I'll reroute it
And this goes out to everyone that shot me down and doubted
Now I'm cumulusly clouded
Serious, higher than a Nimbus
I swear, I'm on the scene like forensics
Just check the stylo
We know heat flow
Them A&Rs tryin' to find me like Nemo, I mean it
You know me, I'm a upscale character
Haters, we ain't mad at ya
To the penthouse we go
It's time to grind now, so we gotta shine now
Never take a time out
Leave 'em in the danger zone
You know me, I'm a upscale character
There is not a challenger
To the front page we go
It's time to grind now, so we gotta shine now
Never take a time out
Now you're in the danger zone
Xaphoon, you crazy!
