then i’ma have one disappointed mama
no, i’ma have one disappointed fam
i’ma feel bad that i can’t provide for my fam
i can’t help how my mom process
mr. huds told a nigger young let it be the best
if i can’t do that main, fuck i’m living for?
i got a pack of newports and a super bad whore
i step out and i’m drinking lots of hennessey
then battle in my sleep with the demons trying to ruing me
a bunch of the … worse, saying that fame wasn’t meant for me
take it back to cleveland, you heard
i can’t stop them from speaking
… got me laid out leaking
y’all don’t know the half, kid cudi got issues, mentally
that i … down fast, like i won’t fall, i can’t fall
i won’t fall dog, i can’t fall,
that’s what i say to myself, over and over
cruising through the city in my black range rover

i heard them whispering, i heard them talking down
now that i’m bubbling, i … thought i forgot how you tried to take me off my
grind
yep, yep, they tried to take me off my grind
but it’s my time boy,
we going straight to the top
watch live my nigger
top, top, top, top of the world
top, top, top, top of the world
top, top, top, top of the world

when you make a move, everybody counting you
but when you dying out, niggers won’t acknowledge you
sick to the stomach, well i’m thinking about loosing
but i love this … it is the life that i’m choosing
and i had to find out who the real scout was
meditated with the buzz i focused to get my hunger back
so alone, just me and the instrumental,
they say my music ain’t normal, must be something wrong with my mental
i got to be ware, i don’t spit about guns and drugs
well … fuck i don’t know about guns and drugs
i spit what i know, and you should too
but you won’t we all know you wanna jock the next dude
and you … the next man
well i was born to be a leader, so you know i’ma follow my heart fam
and i’ma roll with what my nigger manny say
keep your individuality cause that will get your bread, yeah

i heard them whispering, i heard them talking down
now that i’m bubbling, i … thought i forgot how you tried to take me off my
grind
yep, yep, they tried to take me off my grind
but it’s my time boy,
we going straight to the top
watch live my nigger
top, top, top, top of the world
top, top, top, top of the world
top, top, top, top of the world

i ain’t trying to make hits, for the club no more
i’m just trying to make hits for my niggers at war
day to day in the white men’s world
getting head from the white men’s girl
relax me when i’m stressed, having dreams of a … chick with big breast
while i’m thinking of schemes to be king just like in chess
kid cudi won’t rest, that’s when i met my best
flow’s good, half to death, i see through rest, main
a lot of cats trying to make it happen through the music
the truest thing about it is not anyone can do this
gotta spit it different from another nigger living
if i ain’t i’m slipping and i’m never getting up
with that in your head dog, i’m never giving up,
… looking up to the ceiling, chilling out my wake
and these lames gotta hate, see the lyrical wizardry
you’re … my dirty laundry…

i heard them whispering, i heard them talking down
now that i’m bubbling, i … thought i forgot how you tried to take me off my
grind
yep, yep, they tried to take me off my grind
but it’s my time boy,
we going straight to the top
watch live my nigger
top, top, top, top of the world
top, top, top, top of the world
top, top, top, top of the world
