[Verse 1]

Get it if you can, if you cannot get up off the pot

You been missing, pissing up the spot a lot

And I've been waiting on the sideline, give you the guideline

Get up in that pocket like a pocket light, but they don't rock it right

They don't concern me, can't even burn me

Not even with a lighter, all them liars, they ain't worthy

You heard me, I'm a loner: me, myself, and I

I'm a powerhouse, ready to collide with the greatest tide

It's like a typhoon in the making

What I'm saying leave your whole city shaking, broken down, better start praying

I ain't playing, this ain't hopscotch, on the block, or skelly up in den streets

Get jelly whenever we meet

Chic, I'm about my paper; dudes, see ya later

South side of the equator, so hot, gotta thank my maker

I'm here, flow with the best of them, get low with the rest of them

Rang the alarm in '88 and I'm still buzzin'

Cousin, they trying to hate, but I just elevate

Get it straight: I'm Lyte as a rock and they featherweight


[Hook]

You said you seen it all, but you ain't never seen the Lyte

They talk a good game, but they ain't ready for this life

I'm trying to give you the code, let the future unfold

I had to follow them rules, that's how I open them doors


[Hook]

I put that work in; check

Hustle hard; check

I paid my dues; yep

I gave you hits like Ruffneck

And I'm still grinding; yep

Still shining; yep

I'm all that's left; yep

I'm still the best, but you ain't yet


[Verse 2]


I'm living life to the fullest, everywhere I go they ask

How you pass like a bullet, speed of Lyte and that Lytro gas

Here I go, there I go, here I go again

I ain't no fad like Michael Jack, they know I'm Bad

Not bad meaning bad, but bad meaning good

You from the hood, you understood, and understand just who I am

I live to be free, I live for the beat, I live for the biz

That's what it is, no wondering, I get it in, I get it done

You are the one, but I am the Lyte; without me, you're out of sight

I'm taking this entire game to a new height

Just watch me, just like you do YouTube and Hulu

Lyte is back and all over this map like who knew

Rapping to you; listen because I might not say it again

Find good people, wave them in

Let them haters and them [?] ain't know saving them

It's casualties in this game of life, that may not seem right

So if you get it, then get it get it, then get it right


[Pre-Hook]

You said you seen it all, but you ain't never seen the Lyte

They talk a good game, but they ain't ready for this life

I'm trying to give you the code, let the future unfold

I had to follow them rules, that's how I open them doors


[Hook]

I put that work in; check

Hustle hard; check

I paid my dues; yep

I gave you hits like Ruffneck

And I'm still grinding; yep

Still shining; yep

I'm all that's left; yep

I'm still the best, but you ain't yet
