Him Songtext
Uh
See, I spent all day tryna to hide the rage
Time piece for the time away
But still most ain't gettin' the time of day
I got too many lives at stake
So why would I lack and just leave mine to fate?
If ya told me it's mine to take, it's a bet
I'ma lace up when it's time to play, you see

I'm a lion at work
So I rise at first
Anytime it occurs
Big man told me to pattern a verse
So I'm puttin' in time, like I'm ridin' a bird
Got guys in a hearse, lyin' in dirt
So I'm lightin' the earth, bringin' ash to the surface
Yeah, do it like Perseus
So I don't freeze when I stare in the eyes of the serpent

Ay, yo
Turnin' heads when I enter the room, nearly broke their necks
Kiss my ring for collateral, they're in debt
Still haven't paid no respects
Smudgin' the blood on my shorts, no sweat
These tears on my face are all for the passion
Hard work pays off when I'm breaking a leg
In my eyes, it's only a fraction
Eyes on the prize, no time for distraction
Heard it all before, less talk, more action
Wins and losses made me a boss
That's part of the caption
Told parole, got a flight to Johor
Puttin' on for my Western Syd
Threw my Ws up for the win
Can't lie, it means I'm a Western King

They all told me
In that water, in order to float, you must learn how to swim
They all told me
That I would drown if I didn't take all my Ls to the chin
They all told me
If I want a shot at the crown, consider the game to be rigged
They all told me
That I couldn't be King
They all told me
But now I'm HIM

Diamonds and jewels and crocs in a cage
If you ain't bringing none to the table
Boy better pack up and get out the way
I got boys at my six, so anything suss gets lifted and sprayed at
If you owe me, better pay dat
Only time that you get pay back is when I'm paid back
Then I'm chillin' in a Maybach
Ask my chauffeur the ETA
Back on the road, that's TBA
Clockin' this game, no GTA
'Cause I hold the crown like I'm TMJ
Since a young boy like NBA
I been about it, no doubt about it
Riggin' this game, I scream and shout it
And there ain't no one who'll do something about it

Who's harder than us, who's listenin' in?
I've rung some bells
When they mention my name with the volume up
You can put yours on a doorbell, and it still won't ring
Draw for the sword like Arthur the King
Can't hurt my name with sticks
But I stood on stone, they knew who I was
When I pulled 'em, rose that ching, I'm HIM

They all told me
In that water, in order to float, you must learn how to swim
They all told me
That I would drown if I didn't take all my Ls to the chin
They all told me
If I want a shot at the crown, consider the game to be rigged
They all told me
That I couldn't be King
They all told me
But now I'm HIM

They all told me
In that water, in order to float, you must learn how to swim
They all told me
That I would drown if I didn't take all my Ls to the chin
They all told me
If I want a shot at the crown, consider the game to be rigged
They all told me
That I couldn't be King
They all told me
But now I'm HIM
