[00:06.70]Got to get that out your mind
[00:07.82]I want to think that hard, be real with yourself. College ain’t for you
[00:09.94]In fact, I want you to take up a trade
[00:13.58]You know, become a carpenter
[00:14.84]Did you know Jesus was a carpenter?
[00:16.58]She don’t want you. Getting in that girl’s drawers is hard
[00:19.81]Remember that, boy, hard
[00:21.36]Good luck, baby
[00:25.65]Teacher, Teacher I don’t understand what you even wanna talk for
[00:30.58]Unless an interpreter’s gon' come up there and talk for me
[00:34.32]Because we don’t speak the same language, you say *******t like “take up a trade and your thoughts bore me”
[00:38.86]You don’t teach me nothing, you just talk towards me
[00:40.77]I’m gon' need your assessment and fast
[00:42.66]Look around you, do I look anything like the rest of your class?
[00:46.02]Can’t you see that I’m special?
[00:47.78]I don’t act like these ******* crumb snatchers
[00:49.91]I don’t even breathe like ‘em
[00:51.22]I was born with my lungs collapsing
[00:52.94]I walked right up to the drug dealer in my class and asked him
[00:55.36]“How did you get such a bad *******?”
[00:57.21]He said “it was hard and the best ones are the hardest to get”
[01:00.68]And I went on to see the world, and he went on and started the trick
[01:03.85]And now when I see his girl, she be on my *******
[01:06.91]I guess ******* the baddest ******* around wasn’t hard as I thought
[01:11.85]Man, what the ******* was I thinking? (Get Money)
[01:16.29]Jewelry and cars (cars, cars, cars)
[01:19.86]Achieving the highest level of success ain’t as hard as I thought (top the world)
[01:25.34]What the ******* was I thinking? (I was drunk)
[01:28.62]I was drunk or I was lost (You was lost) (Yeah)
[01:31.65]My people said it would be hard (Hard, Hard)
[01:34.86]My teacher said it would be hard (Hard, Hard) (It’s gon’ be hard)
[01:38.22]What the ******* was she thinking?
[01:41.50]Why did I listen to y'all?
[01:44.68]What the ******* was I thinking?
[01:47.12]My finest hour is here, this is what I see in my prayers
[01:49.94]This is me, though I’m facing and all of my fears
[01:52.61]Making all my enemies look in the mirror
[01:54.63]And see the meme of the Jordan face with all of the tears
[01:57.19]What most of you *******ysts ignore, it’s my explosive animal allure
[02:00.68]I went the way to get in the way of my wife planning the divorce
[02:03.53]Handled it and came back more talented than all these rappers
[02:06.39]Though I’m DiCaprio, all they have on me is the awards
[02:08.61]I’m a Steinway grand piano, they’re Casios, I will kindly pass them the torch
[02:12.58]The day that one of them are to hold a candle to my corpse
[02:14.93]I’ll put a hand on your whore, even if she ain’t my type
[02:17.86]And this song is inspired by Broadway play called Hamilton I saw that changed my life
[02:22.28]Right away, so my next move is to either scream write a movie or write a play
[02:26.39]I said ******* the baddest ******* around wasn’t hard as I thought
[02:31.71]Man, what the ******* was I thinking? (Get Money)
[02:35.77]Jewelry and cars (cars, cars, cars)
[02:39.71]Achieving the highest level of success ain’t as hard as I thought (top the world)
[02:45.21]What the ******* was I thinking? (I was drunk)

[02:51.14]My people said it would be hard (Hard, Hard)
[02:54.62]My teacher said it would be hard (Hard, Hard) (It’s gon’ be hard)
[02:57.99]What the ******* was she thinking?
[03:01.63]Why did I listen to y'all?
[03:06.63]
[03:20.04]I’m looking like the black Bond in Africa
[03:22.19]Hotel room look like a beautiful crime scene, in fact it’s a
[03:25.06]Spectacular Halle Berry, Vivica massacre
[03:27.29]Left behind by a serial bachelor
[03:29.19]Fall back, y’all, I really don’t fall back enough
[03:31.88]You’re not gon’ not sound soft to us
[03:33.63]The shotgun will throw a box of black ******* at ya like Count Chocula
[03:37.39]That last line, I was just on my Pharoahe Monch
[03:39.95]Rappers, kneel before me like I’m trying to prepare a pun
[03:42.10]I’ll cut your body up and put it in two different cars
[03:44.61]Put it in the river, have you swimming in a pair of trunks
[03:47.47]Momma asking when I’m coming to the church
[03:48.94]My little brother asking for the Aston
[03:50.75]I threw the keys to him like I’m fronting up some work (Ha, good looking, Nickle)
[03:53.90]I used to not be a trendy guy
[03:55.46]Now I probably got more pairs of Balmain jeans than Wale and Envy got
[03:59.26]Ah, somebody pinch me
[04:00.76]Pardon me
[04:02.71]Teacher, teacher, I’m so sorry I’m late
[04:04.43]I’m Lyric Montgomery’s father, I’m here for Career Day(Hi, Mr. Montgomery)
[04:07.56]Can I talk to the kids?
[04:08.57]Hello, children, how was your day?
[04:10.32]I’m Royce Da 5’9”, and over the years
[04:12.59]I’ve been blackballed
[04:13.63]I’ve been in jail
[04:14.39]I’ve seen lives turned
[04:15.35]But guess what I’ve learned?
[04:17.29]I learned that ******* the baddest ******* around wasn’t hard as I thought
[04:22.27]Man, what the ******* was I thinking? (Get Money)
[04:26.50]Jewelry and cars (cars, cars, cars)
[04:30.72]Achieving the highest level of success ain’t as hard as I thought (top the world)
[04:35.47]What the ******* was I thinking? (I was drunk)
[04:39.28]I was drunk and I was lost
[04:42.41]And you know what else
[04:44.62]Everybody ask me just because I'm a lyricist in this business
[04:47.84]How come I haven't gone broke yet?
[04:49.50]I tell 'em it's cause I'm the flyest backpacker ever
[04:52.41]I'm flyer than Mos Def in a Trump tower surrounded by four chefs
[04:56.62]Fixing him some slamon croquettes with Kendrick, Cole and Kweli
[05:00.04]In their dinner clothes, try me, you and your crew will bleed
[05:03.00]Y'all bums ain't shot for the stars - just New Years Eve
[05:05.97]Nothing was given to me
[05:07.63]I had to go upside heads just to get upside hills
[05:10.25]Never over the hill though, so I never strike when the iron is hot
[05:13.16]I strike whenever the ******* I feel
[05:15.12]I eat what the ******* I kill
[05:16.74]I got this way from not being allowed to eat dinner
[05:19.48]If you knew how much I've lost, you'd have no problem with me winning
[05:22.33]How many times, Could I be reinvented?
[05:24.44]Money is the deadlier of the five venoms, in my denim
[05:27.46]Definitively got a widen 'em, garages with cars in 'em
[05:30.67]Hanging out in bars to have menages with bartenders
[05:33.29]God was an artist and Jesus was a carpenter
[05:35.71]They put me together like an easel in the darkness of hell
[05:38.83]And lost it and left me some loose screws, but
[05:40.90]These are the nails to your coffin
[05:42.20]These are the folk tales of a starving
[05:44.69]Artist battling demons through his notepad like Adam and Eve eating kale in the garden
[05:48.45]Flying private away from all charges
[05:51.14]
