[Chorus]
Baby, I'm the matador
All the others hit the floor
(They say you)
Mess with the bull, and get the horns
Baby, I'm the matador
The matador
[Verse 1]
Wake up with all my kicks on
Head hits heavy like a kick drum
Cape red like a lip balm
Crowd starts singing like a hit song
(They go)
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Eyes locked in the face-off
Don't stop going 'til they're bloodshot
Charging, but the deal's hot
Keep on killing it, I don't stop
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't believe a word they say
'Cause they're all going crazy trying to get to me
[Chorus]
Baby, I'm the matador
All the others hit the floor
(They say you)
Mess with the bull, and get the horns
Baby, I'm the matador
The matador
[Verse 2]
Run fast, never catch me
Never running low but they're all empty
Next gen, they're Atari
Ducking what they're throwing like I'm Ali
(They go)
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Crash down like a tidal
Last name, flooding all my rivals
So young, but their minds old
Don't stop following where I go
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't believe a word they say
'Cause they're all going crazy trying to get to me
[Chorus]
Baby, I'm the matador
All the others hit the floor
(They say you)
Mess with the bull, and get the horns
Baby, I'm the matador
The matador
[Bridge]
When the dust settles, yeah, I'm just getting started
Forget about the genre, I can hit a moving target
A rebel with a cause, I'm the next Jim Stark 'cause
These songs from the heart race like cars in the dark
But I gotta give credit where it's due
Without all of my heroes I'd be drowning in the blue
So take a fast car, let's go walking on the moon
All my brothers, we're the wolves
You need me, I don't need you
'Cause I cut these records on my own
Cut out on the streets try to tell me where to go
From my mind to the mic to your phone
That way I can say it and then everybody knows
These days everybody's trying to stay relevant
They say it'll never work unless they're selling it
But I'mma bust it and break the cage like an elephant
Nothing's gonna stop me 'cause I'm in it for the thrill of it
[Chorus]
Baby, I'm the matador
All the others hit the floor
(They say you)
Mess with the bull, and get the horns
Baby, I'm the matador
The matador
