Like A Boss

(Verse 1) I got the weight of the streets in the palm of my hand I could turn the whole city into shifting sandq See the glares in the cut, hear the whispers behind I know who’s plotting, I know who’s lying I got the reach, I got the heat, I got the crew to descend Could turn your whole block into a dead end But I’m exhaling smoke, watching clouds drift by Lookin' at these cowards with a steady eye. ​(Chorus) I could paint the concrete red, leave 'em all in a heap But I let the lions rest while the little ones sleep It ain't 'cause I'm soft, it ain't 'cause I'm weak It’s the silence of a boss that makes the pavement speak Yeah, I could take it all, I could flip the game fast But I'm respectful, keeping peace while the shadow’s cast I’m the king who don’t need to prove he’s the king I keep the hammer cold, I don’t pull the string. ​(Verse 2) I see the envy in their teeth, the hunger in their stare They’re praying for a slip, for a crack in the layer I could dismantle their life with a nod of my chin Start a fire in the lobby and watch it all thin They think my mercy is a lack of the drive But I’m the only reason half of you stay alive I keep the wolves at the gate, I keep the order intact ‘Cause respect is the currency, that’s just a fact. ​(Chorus) I could paint the concrete red, leave 'em all in a heap But I let the lions rest while the little ones sleep It ain't 'cause I'm soft, it ain't 'cause I'm weak It’s the silence of a boss that makes the pavement speak Yeah, I could take it all, I could flip the game fast But I'm respectful, keeping peace while the shadow’s cast I’m the king who don’t need to prove he’s the king I keep the hammer cold, I don’t pull the string. ​(Outro) Yeah. It’s easy to break things. It takes a real one to keep ‘em whole. Walk light, stay sharp. Respect is earned, not taken. And I got plenty to go around. Keep stepping.
