"Sunrise"

Yeah nigga, it's me again

I'm still around, I guess I win

You hear me in your sister's room like all the time

Gambino girl forever on that bracelet that she bought online

To dudes who couldn't take it, might I say, "hasta luega"

Cause I'm taking on your city like I'm Carmen San Diego

I'm smoking, I'm on fire

I am blazin', don't get hurt

To my whites this is a concert

To my black girls this is church

From that NYU dorm to the Emirate

Everyone hated me, I'm more hip hop than you'll ever be

I'm bustin', bustin' bustin', bustin' on these niggas man

And nothin', nothin' nothin', nothin' is the same again

You lookin dumb as hell man for ever sleeepin' on him

Your girl is not around, she busy sleepin' on him

Will he fail?

Now that's the wrong conversation

Terry Gross on the mic, I'm the talk of the nation, ha

Hey, what it do bitch?

Why these other rappers do shit stupid?

While they be sleepin' I be onto that new shit

While they be sleepin' I be onto that new shit (ayy)

Hey, what it do bitch?

Why these other rappers do shit stupid?

While they be sleepin' I be onto that new shit

While they be sleepin' I be onto that new shit (ayy)

New shit

You didn't know?

Black rock like a fuckin' LOST episode

Somethin' for these black kids to call they own

So when you skatin' in your driveway, you not alone

She stay down like that new coat that I bought her

And the fly Rihanna girls be drinkin' my coconut water

And I'm lookin' at her butt

That's that 20/20 hindsight

My shit be Jackson, Jordan, Bolton, Keaton, Tyson: 5 Mikes

Donald Glover, no relation

Always workin', no vacation

They couldn't feel me, novacation

Murder verses, the only motive was motivation

Money equals freedom

I've wanted this since a three year old

I've seen it all, like I'm John Mayer's penis hole

Bein' me, that's something that's so unusual

I've seen the future, and the future go

Hey, what it do bitch?

Why these other rappers do shit stupid?

While they be sleepin' I be onto that new shit

While they be sleepin' I be onto that new shit (ayy)

Hey, what it do bitch?

Why these other rappers do shit stupid?

While they be sleepin' I be onto that new shit

While they be sleepin' I be onto that new shit (new shit)

Can't you hear me baby?

Can't you hear me callin' out your name?

Can't you hear me baby?

Oh, can't you hear me callin' out your name?
