Metropolis
(Hook)
I done been so high, I been low
But I ain't searching for no hero
I done been so wrong, it felt right
And I just want this feeling all my life, all my life
(Verse)
It's a bird, it's a plane, I'm plain indifferent
I ain't playing with ya
Mr. Big Shot, call me out, I'm Derek Fisher
Look at my common sense, turned it to confidence
Put the city on my back, and turn it to metropolis
My back to opposition, I'm claiming a pole position
Skip laps around deez, couldn't run in my oldest tennis
I'm illy, I'm sick I need a Pilly or a Penisilyn
Cut down an ego, from the sky whenever my pen is wielding
I'm sayn
(Hook)
I done been so high, I been low
But I ain't searching for no hero
I done been so wrong, it felt right
And I just want this feeling all my life, all my life
I want everything, everything, everything
I want everything, everything, everything
I want everything, everything, everything
(Verse)
I'm a crack in the glass ceiling, I am everything i think I am
I never really listened to my Uncle Sam
And I don't think I'm superman, pretending not to give a damn is useless
S'like having the ball and not shooting
And I will never ever stall, too much counting on my movements
My medula make medusa manage somehow nappy rootin'
I'mma pro, I can't settle with the average type
Gimme a leather black jacket, I'll be bad as Mike
Niggas make excuses, and be mad at life
I'm just Gary Coleman, only obstacle is height
We just crabs in a bucket, let you tell it, right?
I put the city on my shoulders and I hold it tight
(Hook)
I done been so high, I been low
But I ain't searching for no hero
I done been so wrong, it felt right
And I just want this feeling all my life, all my life
I want everything, everything, everything
I want everything, everything, everything
I want everything, everything, everything
(Verse)
I walk scattered streets, scattered brains, roads with shattered lanes
Get detained, you another name, just a shattered dream
Patterned ways, from cycle mane, I go psycho mane
Watch my brothers slain, just another life, I couldn't save shit!
I hold myself to higher standings
Small things to giant, where is Eli Manning
These pussycats get high, am bout leave a feline fanning
I'm just jamming, aimin' at whomever want the cannon
I walk scattered streets, scattered brains, roads with shattered lanes
Get detained, you another name, just a shattered dream
Patterned ways, from cycle mane, I go psycho mane
Watch my brothers slain, I don't wanna go thru this again
(Hook)
I done been so high, I been low
But I ain't searching for no hero
I done been so wrong, it felt right
And I just want this feeling all my life, all my life
I want everything, everything, everything
I want everything, everything, everything
I want everything, everything, everything
