I got New York lit, every brake to gale and flip the switch
Give em some you can dig out as you get out the ditch
Don't matter if you rich and you stunning like you a bitch
While your brother commissary, cant get em bag of chips
No clearance necessary when I'm layin' in the Ritz
Though remember the fold building babies fighting over kicks
And find em in this frizzy, that why you talk slick
Every time you try to ball its like the world sets a pick
I see the pain in your eyes, when you alone you cry
Puff sour and drink liquor for the once that died
I use to be just like you
Duffie bag with the rifle
In the projects on my way to see a chick
That's on the Bible
Grand mama pray for me, my mama slave for me
I work to become a master as Cool J's story
I wanted just too more money, fame, glory
Meditation, mental gymnastic, flip the story
Cant wait to tell the world

I let you tell it
Cant wait to show the world
(Show the world), yeah, ah
Cant wait to tell the world
(Tell the world)
Cant wait to show the world
(Show the world)

I wanted cheese out the trap, but my man got knocked
It was divine intervention when them bells got rocked
Wasn't no lawyers on my street, wasn't no doctors on my block
Sometimes I couldn't sleep thinkin' 'bout who got shot
I would hear gun shots, outside crack spots
Cats dyin' gettin' maimed for for gold chains and Gazelle Frames
No legend Stevie, I wander why your visions blurry
Fast lane to pain, want the meds and the hurry
One is the knowledge, two is the wisdom
Three the understanding four the culture dear God I hope you listen
Power equality, god let's build
Destroy before you born lack of knowledge in the cipher kills
Every day like hit records getting air play
Is hard on the brick, say no muhfuckin' holidays
Pow your head shorty
They don't got love for ya
You was born a king, no matter what the world call ya
Cant wait to tell the world

(Tell the world) can't wait shawnty
Cant wait to show the world
(You gonna show the world, you gonna show the world)
Cant wait to tell the world
(That's you singing )
Cant wait to tell the world

I got you L
I got the school on lock I got the heat for the block
And I just told my brother, he ain't gotta sell no rocks
Remember rocks in the sock, play the block with the glocl
I'm just tryin' to get a mil, I wanna be on top
They told me hustles don't sleep
Too busy chasing that guap
So I ain't gonna sleep, I'ma go chase that guap
And I ain't gonna sleep until I hit the top
And I came from nothing, I gotta get to the money
Cuz my family hungry
I can't wait to show that world that I'ma be on that stage
I'ma make it just to put a smile on my mamma face
And this struggle got me stressing
Need a mil on my plate, from the city where niggas shootin' K's every day

Show the world
Cant wait to tell the world
(Tell the world)
Cant wait to show the world
(Show the world)
Cant wait to tell the world
(Tell the world)
Cant wait to show the world
