And she drop it so low, she sittin' down on the floor I never pound with the flow, at times, I wonder Ayy, when they listen to my shit, man, can they hear my hunger? Or will these hatin'-ass rappers try to steal my thunder? Ayy, this is big shit poppin', you gon' need a plunger To take me under, niggas in trouble You lookin' at LeBron James of the game I could do anything that you name I could blaze any rapper in the game that you bring Pour gasoline on the brain, got the flame for that So you hatin' niggas refrain from that A little bitter 'cause your game is wack I'll let Elite breathe, yeah Let Elite breathe, yeah Ayy, you ain't gotta cry, don't worry 'bout me I know it won't be long 'fore you heard about me My head's to the sky and I'm on my grind I'm reachin' for the clouds, tryna take what's mine Take what's mine, hey, hey Hey, a dollar and a dream, that's all a nigga got So if it's 'bout that cream, then I'm all up in the spot I'm just warmin' up, I'm hot, but nah, I ain't flashin' I never gave a fuck about no high-end fashion Ayy, maybe I was too broke, maybe I'm just too dope To rap about that regular shit or bag a regular bitch These niggas talkin' like they on the next level and shit But Cole's flow so cold, bet the Devil get sick How do you want it? So sick, I make you mentally vomit These rappers askin' for beats and ain't even fit to be on it I see 'em write about rappers, I should be sick to my stomach Because they talk 'bout the future, but didn't mention me on it So now I'm back in the kitchen cookin', I'm meant to be one of the greatest No nigga seein' me this century, uh, and you hate it Look how I played it, other niggas was jaded Underappreciated, now Carolina is rated Let Elite breathe, yeah Yeah, hey, uh, uh, uh, uh I let Elite breathe, yeah Ayy, ayy, you ain't gotta cry, don't worry 'bout me I know it won't be long 'fore you heard about me My head's to the sky and I'm on my grind I'm reachin' for the clouds, tryna take what's mine Take what's mine, hey, hey
