[ Featuring Hi-Lite Real ]
Yeah
I'm never playin' it safe
I'm never playin' their game
Better watch out
When you usin' my name
'Cause they never was callin' me tame
Buddy just stay out my lane ('cause)
I'll never fit in your frame (yeah)
Turnin' these fans into flames
King of the court they callin' me James
Go Hall of Fame yeah
Callin' it lucky I think that's funny
Hard work pays off get the cheese like I'm Chuck-E
Don't cap like I'm Bucky been hurt like a soldier
It's cold in the winter so next up is sunny
Who knows (nose) like it's runny
Y'all want the money
I want it too but my soul isn't crummy
Don't crash like a dummy
Rap like a mummy
This cat been wild like I played for Kentucky huh
Hearing the roar of the crowd well
One day I'm hopin' it's loud
Right now my best friends are crickets
But that ain't a sign like a picket
No shutting me down
They don't hear a sound
When they be tauntin' me now
I see your red flags like a foul
Stay lyin' (lion) I growl
My homies are wavin' the towel now
We' don't be
Playin' it safe
I'm never playin' their game
Better watch out
When you usin' my name
'Cause they never was callin' me tame
Buddy just stay out my lane ('cause)
I'll never fit in your frame (yeah)
Turnin' these fans into flames
King of the court they callin' me James
Go Hall of Fame yeah
Shoutout to any and every role model telling young black kids
You can be what you want to be
Taking out one of the biggest dogs in the room
I'm breaking down barriers put here in front of me
And this one is for all the dream walls
Full of posters of all the greats
All of the affirmations that you quote by the day
The story relates
From underdog to a hall of famer
With the accolades that can match the credentials
Put in that work
You brought to the dance
To meet with your heroes you know that you met your potential
Despite the committee who tried to deny all your purpose and pain
You proved to the world
That you're undeniable Mr. reliable
Give them their flowers an etch out the name
Yeah
I'm never playin' it safe
I'm never playin' their game
Better watch out
When you usin' my name
'Cause they never was callin' me tame
Buddy just stay out my lane ('cause)
I'll never fit in your frame (yeah)
Turnin' these fans into flames
King of the court they callin' me James
Go Hall of Fame yeah
