Benny the Butcher, Drake - Escalate Quickly lyrics

Lighter flick feel like Tune

I'm iller than the illness that
These people wish me
Drake be Joshin' around but life
Wasn't Nickelodeon or Disney
Is you kidding me?
My resume is thicker than Nicki
I'm busy-busy
I remember doing halftime at Jackson
Mississippi wasn't drivin' Cadillac then
But shit still found a
Way to escalate quickly
Wanted people to miss me
Changed shit after Nipsey
Took the fun away, now the fun's done
Roses right now though, tell 'em to run some
You don't havе to see the score
To know that I won some
Truе colors always come out like the sun does
'Specially when you assumin' the
Role of that nigga i keep my circle small so
The blunt gets back quicker
I just woke up and tripped on a glass slipper
I guess Cinderella must've called
Up her own Uber
I've always been able to see the
Depths of my own future
Psychic readings, corporate meetings
Power lunches
Private funding, hundred push-ups
Hundred crunches
Final touches, lemon squeezes, island breezes
Press releases, moving speeches
Multi tasking
Torches passing, strong attractions
Forceful actions what's really cracking?
I guess I'm maintaining, thanks for asking
Yeah and I don't even need to ask
How you doing without me
Your captions are more about me
Than you were about me
Your friends come around
I don't know what they doing around me
They still come around, yeah

Uh, it's worth more when you earn it
Guilty the verdict
Burnin' large bills in the furnace
Trash bags and detergent
I touched a little bit of this paper
I'm still yearnin'
Drove the work three hundred times at least
I'm still nervous
Here to speak for the hopefuls
Keepin' it soulful
Phone face down at the bar
Havin' drinks at Kimodo
Hope these meetings on roof tops
Never turn into jail visit's
It only put a smile on my
Face when the scale tippin'
Despite the well wishes from y'all
I held distance
They prayin' my success stories
Turn into failed missions
They tying me to greats, every other week
I'm buying me a safe
I learned it's more satisfying when you wait
Had to hide so many stacks in my crib
I got it booby trapped
My closest look like a Off
White vs louis match
All that jealousy obvious, I got hipped to it
Even your compliments starting to
Sound like bitterness
All the pressure I'm living with
Every line delivered with hunger
My flow a sure thing like a death certificate
Soldiers is dead
Spilled blood over this bread
Had my family thinking I'm in over my head
Bagging up breathing chemicals
When a ki' was the pinnacle
Now at my high schools giving speeches
Speaking political got here being original
Every day it's like the new
Me, the business man, vs me as the criminal
I'm the quiet one in the room
Keeping it minimal
Till the house big enough I can park
The V in the living room
Ah, the Butcher coming nigga
