Fire Squad (Live) (Live|Explicit)

Fire Squad (Live|Explicit) - J. Cole

Ni**a why you actin' like a ho

Know that I'ma ride for ya either way it go

Tell me girl why you be stressin' me for time

When you tell me you love me can't you see I'm tryna climb

Damn my ni**a why you actin' like a b**ch

If you scared to take a chance how the f**k we gon' get rich

Come here baby why you always insecure

Hold on tight to a ni**a and be sure

Ain't a way around it no more I am the greatest

A lotta niggas sat on the throne I am the latest

I am the bravest go toe to toe with the giants

I ain't afraid of you niggas I'll end up fading you niggas

'Fore it's all said and done this ni**a need medicine

My uzi it weighed a ton I need me a better gun

In fact I just might need two cause niggas say they the one

And I got something to prove

Forgive me lord here they come blaoow

Ni**a why you actin' like a ho

Know that I'ma ride for ya either way it go

Tell me girl why you be stressin' me for time

When you tell me you love me can't you see I'm tryna climb

Damn my ni**a why you actin' like a b**ch

If you scared to take a chance how the f**k we gon' get rich

Come here baby why you always insecure

Hold on tight to a ni**a and be sure

My inhibition's fighting my intuition

Premature premonition showing me the demolition

Of these phony niggas so ahead of my time

Even when I rhyme about the future I be reminiscing

You want the truth well come and listen

I'm like that time you bagged a dime and checked ya phone

And saw it was a number missing

As fate passes you by half of you try

The other half of you fry too high to actually fly

One day y'all have to decide who you gon' be

A scary ni**a or a ni**a that's gon' rule like me

Keep it true like me cole you might be

Like the new ice cube meets the new ice-t

Meets 2 live crew meets the new spike lee

Meets bruce like wayne meets bruce like lee

Meets '02 lil wayne in a new white tee

Meets kd ain't no ni**a that can shoot like me blaooow

Ni**a why you actin' like a ho

Know that I'ma ride for ya either way it go

Tell me girl why you be stressin' me for time

When you tell me you love me can't you see I'm tryna climb

Damn my ni**a why you actin' like a b**ch

If you scared to take a chance how the f**k we gon' get rich

Come here baby why you always insecure

Hold on tight to a ni**a and be sure

Who's the king

Came from the bottom ni**a with stains on my shirt

What you expected from me I came from the dirt

Who's the king

Money my motivator the songs that I sing

Picture a peasant passin' from pawn to a king

You tell me ya still love me if so then let me go

Will I return or will I burn never know

Look in my eyes and see the future

But don't sugar coat it

Listen

History repeats itself and that's just how it goes

Same way that these rappers always bite each others flows

Same thing that my ni**a elvis did with rock n roll

Justin timberlake eminem and then macklemore

While silly niggas argue over who gon' snatch the crown

Look around my ni**a white people have snatched the sound

This year I ll prolly go to the awards dappered down

Watch iggy win a grammy as I try to crack a smile

I'm just playin' but all good jokes contain true sh*t

Same rope you climb up on they'll hang you with

But not jermaine my aim too sick

I bang ni**a I came to bring the pain my brain too quick

You see how I maneuver this game I ain't stupid

I recognize that life is a dream and I dream lucid

And break the chains and change minds

One verse at a time and claim 2-6

And f**k it if the shoe fits who's the king

We all kings
