Time to show what rap brings to the table lyric wise.
Ludacris
I stroke so good like Tiger Woods, and I GROWL like a tiger would
Drake
Fireworks
Money just changed everything
I wonder how life without it would go
From the concrete who knew that a flower would grow
Looking down from the top and its crowded below
My 15 minutes started an hour ago
Truth over fame you know I respect that blatant s***
When I hear them talking I just don't know what to make of it
Hate is so familiar to me, I'm slowly embracing it
Doesn't come natural, bear with me, it could take a bit
Ya, and my dreams are who I'm racing with
And you can see I'm pacing it, so that I'm always chasing it
Wayne put me right here, that's who I get the paper with
I hope that my success never alters our relationship
Ya, this life is something I would die for
Octobers own, but it's looking like July 4th
I wish they'd let you try it first
This time I'm really going off, Fireworks
Im just such a gentleman
You should give it up for me
Look at how Im placing all my napkins and my cutlery
I can tell it wasnt love I just thought you **** with me
Who coulda predicted love could strike but how you stuck with me
D***, I kept my wits about me luckily
What happened between us that night it always seems to trouble me
Now all of a sudden these gossip brags wanna cover me
And you making it seem that it happened that way because of me
But I was curious and Ill never forget it baby
What an experience
You coulda been the one but it wasn't that serious
There was smoke in the air before that was me clearing it
That felt good, all and all I learned a lesson from it though
You never see it coming you just get to see it go
Yeah I shoulda looked up in the sky at first
Now I can see it in her eyes
Fireworks!
Everything the same but it feels different
My dad called me up knowing that I still listen
And hes still got his foot out, guilt trippin
Its been years, though, I just learn to deal with it
For real, me and my realtor we built up a better report
Got my mother in a place with some better decor
She searched the entire city I let her explore
And now shes sayin shes more lonely than ever before
How many of our parents marriages lasted?
I was only 5, I bet I barely reacted
Im flying back home for the heritage classic
Searching for that feeling, tell me where is the magic?
Lets stay together til were ghosts
I want to witness love, Ive never seen it close
Yeah, but I guess I gotta find it first, thats why Im really going off
Fireworks
That right there is some legit lyrics.
This one is even better. Best song ever made.
The Resistance
Yesterday when we were getting high, you were invited.
You would've liked it. I-I know you all too well.
I said that we could kiss the past goodbye, but you weren't excited, there's no way to fight it.
You can stay but shawty here I go...
[Verse 1]
Uh, should I spend the weekend in Vegas?
I'm living inside a moment, not taking pictures to save it.
I mean, how could I forget? My memories never faded.
I can't relate to these haters, my enemies never made it.
I am, still here with who I started with.
The game needed life, I put my heart in it.
I blew myself up, I'm on some martyr ****.
Carried the weight for my city like a cargo ship.
Uh. I'm 23, with a money tree.
Growing more too, I just planted a hundred seeds.
It's ironic, 'cause my mother was a flourist,
and that's how she met my pops and now my garden is enourmous.
It's happening Penny Lane, just like you said.
I avoided the Coke game, and went with Sprite instead.
Uh huh, that's word to the millions that they putting up.
I'm trying to do better than good enough.
[Chorus]
What am I afraid of? This is suppose to be what dreams are made of.
But people I don't have the time to hang with, always look at me and say the same ****..(they say)
You promised me you would never change.
You promised me you would never change.
[Verse 2]
Uh. Am I wrong for making light of my situation? Clap on.
When 40 got some **** for me to snap on.
Now that I'm on, I don't really want to worry about getting back on.
I'm just trying to stay on, get my ****ing buffet on.
I heard they just moved my grandmother to a nursing home.
And I be acting like I don't know how to work a phone.
But hit redial you see that I just called, some chick I met at the mall,
that I barley know at all and..
Plus this woman that I messed with unprotected
Texting saying that she wish she would've kept it.
The one that I'm laying next to just looked over and read it.
Man I couldn't tell you where the **** my head is, I'm holding on by a thread it's..
Like I'm high right now, the guy right now, and you can tell by looking in my eyes right now.
That nothing really comes as a surprise right now,
'cause we just having the time of our lives right now.
[Chorus]
What am I afraid of? This is suppose to be what dreams are made of.
But people I don't have the time to hang with, always look at me and say the same ****..(they say)
You promised me you would never change.
You promised you would never change.
[Verse 3]
Well all right. Uh. I live by some advices, girl Lisa told me.
The other day, Lisa told that she missed the old me.
Which made me question when I went missing.
And when I start treating my friends different.
Maybe it was the fast paced switch up.
Or the two guns in my face during the stick up.
Maybe cause the girl I thought I trusted was who set the whole **** up.
Or the fact I haven't seen em since they locked Big Rich up.
I know. At the same time I'm quick to forget.
I'm bout to roll me up a blunt with my list of regrets.
Burn it all, burn it all, I'm starting it fresh.
Cause half the time I got it right I probably guessed.
Did I just trade free time for camera time?
Will I blow all of this money baby, Hammer Time?
I just need some closure.
Aint no turning back for me I'm in till it's over.
Ok man I got this, you could never get this
Built it up from nothing you could swear I'm playing Tetris
Thousand dollar sweater on but I don't never sweat s***
Ya, tell me who controls kings?
I don't follow rules, stupid old things
Driving around the city in a coupe with those wings
And my team deserves some m*********** superbowl rings
I love ya sushi roll, hotter than Wasabi
Race for your love, shake and bake, Ricky Bobby
I'm at the W, but I can't meet you in the lobby
Girl I gotta watch my back, I'm not just anybody
I see them stand in line, just to get beside her
I let her see the Aston, and let the rest suprise her
That's when we dissapear, you need GPS to find her
Oh that was your girl? I thought I recognized her
Nicki Minaj
I'm in that cotton pink Bent',
Put mass on the guts
White on white whips, Kunta Kinte on the clutch
You at the bottom of the pole, totem
Like Lamar Odom, I ball.... Scrotum
Flyer than a cricket so they call me Nicki Jimany
And it's going down like Santa in the chimany
You don't ball, break your baby back ribs
You need more assists than the handicap kids!
Lil Wayne
For him, his specialty isn't whole songs, it's just amazing phrases or one-liners, so that's what I'm gonna do here.
I'm rare like Mr. Clean with hair
Big bread bread like a picnic n****
Shake the whole game like the hit stick n**** (Haha ever played a madden game?)
Money spread like germs get sick n****
Ya, and **** them other n****
1 9 hundred who want I deliver
Concrete shoes won't help in a river
I don't care if you was Michael Phelps my n****!
Real G's move in silence like lasagna
People say I'm borderline crazy, sorta kinda
Woman of my dreams, I don't sleep so I can't find her
I heard somebody say church, Ima need a suit/
I heard somebody say judge, Ima need ta sue
(He says in a way that you can't tell which one he actually says, and that's the point)
Flying over old ruins
Look out the window, you see LA like Bruins (UCLA Bruins)
The only time I will depend is when I'm 70 years old
And can't hold my s*** within
So I s*** on myself,
Cuz I'm so sick and tired of s******* on everybody else
(Depends is a brand of diapers for older people with bathroom issues)
And yes I'm the best, no I ain't positive, I'm definite
I know the game like I'm reffing it
I am the the beast
Feed me rappers, or feed me beats
(Wrappers and Beats, hahaha)
She say I got great s**, safe s**
Better wear a latex, cuz you don't want that late text
That "I think I'm late" text
Self-made G, and them b****** know the business
Relying on rap, but in the kitchen I'm a chemist
And when I was 5 my favorite movie was The Gremlins
Ain't got s*** to do with this but I just thought that I should mention
You looking for divine and the little intervention
And them birds don't fly, without my permission
I'm probably in the sky, flying with the fishes
Or maybe in the ocean, swimming with the pidgeons
See my would is different
Pistol on my hip, Tomb Raider
Flow like syringes
Yeah I'm in the mode got a code like Da Vinci's
And I'm a G
You don't need to know the alphabet to see
