The Basement

So you think
You've got what it takes
Puff up your chest
Like you own the place
But hey guess what
There's always someone better
Nippin' at your heels
And tuggin' on your sweater

I made it up to the top
I broke every bone for the spot
I made my way through the chalk
But they still come at me with a jaw
They be laughin' like

Oh
He got lucky
Must've woke up
On a dick filled with money
Oh
You missed the prequel
I was working while you
Were searching for a free throw

So you think
You've got what it takes
Puff up your chest
Like you own the place
But hey guess what
There's always someone better
Nippin' at your heels
And tuggin' on your sweater
Like you a god
Like you're made of gold
But hey guess what
There's always someone chasing
Willing to do anything
To climb out the basement

Born up out the basement
Breaking out the saws
Like I'm Leatherface
Leave you faceless
Two hits to your jaw
Fuck the law
Call that a fa ace lift
Competition deep so this
World made me anxious
Been gripping on my stainless bitch
So now I'm over thinking
Every time that I speak
They've been nippin' at my heels
Until I'm weak in the knees
Cause I want the whole pie
I ain't taking a piece
Bitch I used to sit alone
And now I do what I please

So you think
You've got what it takes
Puff up your chest
Like you own the place
But hey guess what
There's always someone better
Nippin' at your heels
And tuggin' on your sweater
Like you a god
Like you're made of gold
But hey guess what
There's always someone chasing
Willing to do anything
To climb out the basement

I was just a number
Stuck alone in the back
Climbing over bodies
For a chance at a chance
My talents and talons
I keep clawing for balance
I'm never off

I was born in failure
But I broke up the curse
So if you're coming
For the throne
You gotta kill me first
Cause I'm fighting and fiending
Every day I'm the reaper
I'm never off

So you think you've
Got what it takes
So you think you've
Got what it takes
