[Intro]
Con-conó
(I’m back, I wanna make you mine)
Conductor
Yeah
Haha, right?
Uh, I’m back
That’s right
It feels so good to be back, mane
I’m back, baby
By popular demand, ayo
[Verse 1]
Moved out the city, copped the house in the sticks
Couple acres, couple whips, whole lotta blicks
I got options baby, take your pick
Might fu*k around and coordinate the fit, take aó (Haha)
This my life in film, baby, I just write the script
Mister really put that on, they be counterfeit
I’m taking calculated risk, too legit to quit
Can get you n!ggas acclimated quick, it’s rules to this s*it, hold upó
I got murals in my city, fu*k a nomination
This for every time they left me out the conversation
I’m back by popular demand and world domination
I’m finna b0mb on n!ggas’ plans, fresh off my vacation
I was sitting back, watching from a eagle eye
Trying not to react, just give me one reason
I swear I’m on full attack, East Coast n!gga ’til I die
It’s clear who the heir, apparent king of NY, n!gga

[Interlude]
Straight like that, come on
Told y’all n!ggas I’m back, come on, yeah
The ruler’s back, baby
Ayo

[Verse 2]

Too much West Coast d!ck licking
I’m hearing n!ggas throwing rocks, really? ain’t s*it sticking
‘Cause if we talking bar-for-bar, really, it’s slim pickings
I rap like I draw pentagrams and kill chickens, n!gga
Fu*k around with your soul like Ether, quick for feature
This that black Airforce energy coming out your speaker
I’m out your reach, your arms too short to box the Elohim
Still reigning rap supreme, me and Steelo had a dream
I stand tall in this rap thing like Yao Ming
It won’t stop ’til the crowd sing when I’m crowned king
My aura scream and my style ring
This ain’t boom bap, n!gga, this that boom-bow-bing
We can run a fair one, I knew some real haters but I ain’t never fear none
Guess that’s just the Brooklyn in me, they must not know where I’m from
Heard that they was looking for me, okay, tell ’em:
”Here I come, I’m nowhere near done with you, n!gga”
You fu*king stupid?
