Hey

Will

Yeah

I'm feelin' like Will (hey)

I feel like a prince, I'm feelin' myself (buck, buck)

I'm loaded with bills 'cause I wasn't blessed with no Uncle Phil (blah)

Don't know how it feels

I wanted to flex, they told me to chill (chill)

I'm makin' a flip (flip)

My life is a flick, now load up the film (hey)

You feelin' like me? (whoa)

I feel like a prince that turned to a king (ayy)

Found me a queen, started a family and got me a team

On top of my dreams, Joyner, I know you inspired by me

Like I was inspired by Nelson Mandela, I give him a rose for every endeavor

And shoutout to Julius Erving, one of the legends I worship (worship)

Muhammad Ali put the work in, he was the champ, the greatest, he earned it

I love that you think that I'm perfect but I have plenty mistakes and burdens

My grandmama thought I was worthless

She always got at me when I was searching (searching)

I wouldn't be me if it wasn't for her (I wouldn't be Will)

I wouldn't be Willie, I couldn't be me if there wasn't no Eddie

I wouldn't be Will if I wasn't from Philly

Ain't nothin' much that you really can tell me

Willy been cold since Benny and Jerry

Must've forgot that I really get busy

They done forgot who invented "Get Jiggy," ayy (they must have forgot)

Back before there was streaming sales

60 million records sold, I was on fire, I ain't even need a grill

Did it all with no cuss words, I ain't have to curse just to keep it real

Me and Jazz in the late '80s, writin' rhymes, makin' tapes daily

Fresh Prince make the babes crazy, rest in peace to James Avery

Even when the streets call me corny, I still ain't ever let the hate break me

I just wanted the respect first, I still ain't never lettin' fame change me (yeah)

New me, but I'm old school (old school)

Big Willie on the Pro Tools (Pro Tools)

Still fresh and I'm so smooth (so smooth)

I still got on my old shoes

I give Jada one thousand kisses, ain't nothin' change since '02 (ayy)

Martin Lawrence get a rose too

He a legend and a G.O.A.T. too (G.O.A.T.)

Man, I love that you break the rules

Pushing limits and you make it cool

Joyner Lucas wasn't made to lose

You a legend in the making too

What a beauty, my life's a movie

I swear I'm only on take two

All my kids turned out great

And I know your son gon' be great too (great too)

Brick by brick, buildin' a wall that no one could break

Flip by flip, glad I could help so you could be straight

And life's a trip, but who could relate?

The legends are gone but it ain't too late

To give 'em a rose and carry the grace

'Cause not every hero is wearin' a cape (Will)
