[Verse 1: Mike Floss]
I was told the best revenge is living well huh
I’m living wavy my coins piling like wishing well huh
I feel Mercedes I’m driven my style is live and tell so
Show me something
All Saints my coat go Winterfell huh
Ain’t kissing babies or shaking hands with no Lannister’s
Peeking over the bannister
Managed to plan a massacre wildfire for amateurs
Jon Snow I ain’t dying
When needs looking like wolves they dire I can supply funds
I used to ride the bus
I used wait tables, bag groceries for crumbs
Cut grass, sell candy over priced for ones
Cut class, hit the studio and slice it up
Now it seem like the paychecks keep finding us
[Bridge]
A: Your peers out there?
B: What when I perform?
A: Yea
B: No. I'm probably just going to be looking out into the room. A big smile on my face and just reflecting on how I'm...how much I'm gon' just do my best out there. We gon' have a good time!
A: *laughs*
B: We really are. We gon' have fun, watch this one
[Verse 2: Mike Floss]
I promise into that dark night I’ll never go silent
Niggas is getting stoned I’m getting in Stone Island
My face smiling, my braids shining, my skin glowing
Just left my Miami we ate plantains
And swam ocean
I seen looks change like the man with no face
And I’m facing a glass of 1942 out the case
I remember tying mid-top forces with double lace
Back then we used to walk like our leg was stuck in a brace
Had to keep the hooping shorts under denim
The 501s the dye bled on Nike white leather
The problem was getting solved
By them rubber bands on my ankles
Like it was drugs in my pants
Felt it would buzz in the hallway
When I would walk through in love with that feeling
My style is appealing
No time for the lectures
Designer electives
I see you right in front with that L like a Lexus
Spent time with Alexis, Mya, Keiana, and Precious
Niggas wanna peek at you what your kind is detective?
Boy you kinda aggressive
I’m just trying to live my movie design and direct it
Might waive back with four of my fingers neglected
All this time I was excellent
All these lines I perfected
I come to get some honest money then find me a exit
Design me a crazy logo and diamond the necklace
All my clients impressive
My alliance was tested
All my triumphs respected
Floss
[Outro]
Ooooh you don't know my name
(round and round and round it goes, will you ever know?)
And I swear, it feels like
