B.o.B [2010] - B.o.B PRESENTS: THE ADVENTURES OF BOBBY RAY - track 01 - Don't Let Me Fall

B.o.B
DON'T LET ME FALL


Well it was just a dream
Just a moment ago
I was up so high
looking down at the sky
Don't let me fall
I was shooting for stars
on a Saturday night
They say what goes up
must come down
But don't let me fall
Don't let me fall
Don't let me fall
They say what goes up
must come down
But don't let me fall
Don't let me fall

'Cause I'm gliding up there oh so very high
That if the clouds were to drop me
Then I'd fall out the sky
I don't really know why I'm here
I guess I'm just here for the ride
I swear, it feels like I'm dreaming
It's vividly defined, yeah
So call me whatever you want
Tie me to whatever you like
But let's get one thing straight
You know my name, so I run this town
When I'm on this mic, yeah
So here I go, B.o.B Bobby Ray
I don't know, need I know
But I know, that I float
Rack 'em up, knock 'em down, dominoes
Then I go, as my story goes
I don't mind, I've been down here before
Product of my east-decader home
'Cause I was in the cold
Trying to keep my toes unfroze
Now I'm in your house
Now I'm in your stove
Now I'm everywhere that your iPod go
Everything I seen was a dream just a moment ago

Well it was just a dream
Just a moment ago
I was up so high
Looking down at the sky
Don't let me fall
I was shooting for stars
On a Saturday night
They say what goes up
Must come down
But don't let me fall
Don't let me fall
Don't let me fall
They say what goes up
Must come down
But don't let me fall
Don't let me fall
Don't let me fall
They say what goes up
Must come down
But don't let me fall
Don't let me fall

Yeah, but for once
No one made that pavement is
'Cause there ain't no parachute
That they can make for this
'Cause I put my pain, my heart
My soul, my faith in this
Does anyone feel like how I feel?
Then you can relate to this
I just blazed with this
Maybe roll one up then take a hit
Toast to the good life then take a sip
Vacate everyday, yeah take a trip
It's easy to see I was made for this
From the womb all the way to the grave, I spit
Show y'all niggas what greatness is
Yeah, I'm talking very Lucy like making movies
To picture my life boy
You need a higher resolution
I used to cut class in day
Then runaway at night
But now I'm ruler of the upper class
I don't even write

Well it was just a dream
Just a moment ago
I was up so high
Looking down at the sky
Don't let me fall
I was shooting for stars
On a Saturday night
They say what goes up
Must come down
But don't let me fall
Don't let me fall
Don't let me fall
They say what goes up
Must come down
But don't let me fall
Don't let me fall

Beautiful girls, all over the world

'cause they got nothin' on you, baby
(Yeah)
Nothin' on you, baby
(Nuh-nuh-nuh-nothin' on you babe, nuh-nothin' on you)

- B.o.B -
I know you feel where I'm comin' from (from)
Regardless of the things in my past that I've done (done)
Most of it really was for the hell of the fun (the uh)
On the carousel, so around I spun (spun)
With no direction, just try'na get some (some)
Try'na chase skirts, livin' in the summer sun (sun)
And so I lost more than I had ever won (Wha?)
And honestly, I ended up with none (Huh?)

- B.o.B -
There's so much nonsense that's on my conscience
I'm thinkin', "Maybe I should get it out"
And I don't wanna sound redundant
But I was wonderin', if there was somethin' that you wanna know
(somethin' that you wanna know)
But never mind that, we should let it go
(we should let it go)
'Cause we don't wanna be a TV episode
(TV episode)
And all the bad thoughts, just let 'em go (go!)
Go (go!), go (hey)

You're my Wonder Woman call me Mr. Fantastic

B.o.B
Past My Shades
[ featuring Lupe Fiasco ]


- B.o.B -
If you asked me what's on my mind you probably won't believe it
'Cause if life was one big pool I'd be in the deep end
So I play my role and never ever speak it
Like a secret
And all the while you just just to figure me out

[CHORUS]
- B.o.B -
But you can't see past my shades
Past my shades
Past my shades
And you can't see past my shades
Past my shades
Past my shades
And you can't see past my shades
Past my shades
Past my shades

- B.o.B -
Well ask me a question, I tell you no lies
'Cause there's nothing to hide my souls in my eyes
And I'm ahead of my time but I cannot rewind
The only thing I fear is the mirror in my bathroom
People look and try to see a disguise
But there is nothing that nobody can't see in light
If it's a song with a rhyme or a verse with a line
Then you wanna stay in my mind

[CHORUS]
- B.o.B -
But you can't see past my shades
Past my shades
Past my shades
And you can't see past my shades
Past my shades
Past my shades
And you can't see past my shades
Past my shades
Past my shades

- Lupe Fiasco -
Uh, who else but Lu else
You know I got two belts: the black and the white one
I begin and I master
I see in my eye glasses
But they sayin' what I'm seeing through is false like Ross
I can hear him through the wall like walk
This way they tryin' to dissuade my thoughts
I'm a slave to myself and disobey my boss
It's all in disarray this parade I walk
They get amazed when they catch a chain I toss
Amidst dis array of different ways I talk
And it hangs from your brain if my chain you caught
Like I cough without covering my mouth
I tip the scales like the King of the south
Forgot that I was fat I lost my way
But now I'm back looking for the shade I sought
And not wonders, Scott Summers
So don't make me take off my stunners
Bobby Ray you know you got my numbers
And them there can't see us like hunters

[CHORUS]
- B.o.B -
But you can't see past my shades
Past my shades
Past my shades
And you can't see past my shades
Past my shades
Past my shades
And you can't see past my shades
Past my shades
Past my shades


La la la la la
Oh yeah
La la la la la
You can't see past my shades
La la la la la
You can't see past my shades

[CHORUS]
- B.o.B -
But you can't see past my shades
Past my shades
Past my shades
And you can't see past my shades
Past my shades
Past my shades
And you can't see past my shades
Past my shades
Past my shades

AIRPLANES
[ featuring Hayley Williams ]


[CHORUS]
- Hayley Williams -
Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now
Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now

- B.o.B -
yea
I could use a dream or a genie or a wish
To go back to a place much simpler than this
'Cause after all the partyin' and smashin' and crashin'
And all the glits and the glam and the fashion
And all the pandemonium and all the madness
There comes a time where you fade to the blackness
And when you starin' at that phone in your lap
And you hopin' but them people never call you back

But that's just how the story unfolds
You get another hand soon after you fold
And when your plans unravel in the sand
What would you wish for if you had one chance?
So airplane, airplane, sorry I'm late
I'm on my way so don't close that gate
If I don't make that then I'll switch my flight
And I'll be right back at it by the end of the night

[CHORUS]
- Hayley Williams - B.o.B -
Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars?

I could really use a wish right now (wish right now),

Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars?
(shooting stars)
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now),
wish right now (wish right now),
wish right now (wish right now)

- B.o.B -
yea, yea
somebody take me back to the days
Before this was a job, before I got paid
Before it ever mattered what I had in my bank
Ya, back when I was tryin' to get a tip at Subway
And back when I was rappin' for the hell of it
But nowadays we rappin' to stay relevant
I'm guessin' that if we can make some wishes out of airplanes
Then maybe, oh maybe I'll go back to the days
Before the politics that we call the rap game
And back when ain't nobody listen to my mixtape
And back before I tried to cover up my slang
But this is for the hater, what's up Bobby Ray?
So can I get a wish
to end the politics
and get back to the music
That started this shit?
So here I stand and then again I say
I'm hopin' we can make some wishes out of airplanes

[CHORUS]
- Hayley Williams - B.o.B -
Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars?

For the niggas under prison
You are tuned in, listenin'

GHOST IN THE MACHINE


Tell me, where am I supposed to go?
And who am I supposed to believe?
If only you knew what I knew
Then you could see just what I see

[CHORUS]
So I grab my bags and go, as far away as I can go
'Cause everything ain't what I used to know
And I try to hide, but I just can't hide no more
There's nothing worse than feeling like a ghost

You say I look fine, if only you knew what's on my mind
You'd see a whole different sign, I couldn't show you even if I tried
I must have got lost in time when I found out I was only free to be
where ever I want to be

Some say I'm out of sight, how ironic and that we're all so blind
If you could open up your eyes, you could see what I couldn't describe
And then you'd see the signs, and then your soul would be set free,
and then you'd be released

[CHORUS]
So I grab my bags and go, as far away as I can go
'Cause everything ain't what I used to know
And I try to hide, but I just can't hide no more
There's nothing worse than feeling like a ghost

Tell, me where am I supposed to go?
And who am I supposed to believe?
If only you knew what I knew
Then you could see (Hey)

[CHORUS]
So I grab my bags and go, as far away as I can go
'Cause everything ain't what I used to know
And I try to hide, but I just can't hide no more
There's nothing worse than feeling like a ghost

And I'm terrified, like I've seen a UFO
'Cause everything ain't what I used to know
And I try to hide, but I just can't hide no more
There's nothing worse than feeling like a ghost

(I go)
(a UFO)
(And I'm so tired of hiding,
I've been running, I've been trying, to get away, to get away)

[CHORUS]
So I grab my bags and go, as far away as I can go
'Cause everything ain't what I used to know
And I try to hide, but I just can't hide no more
There's nothing worse than feeling like a ghost

THE KIDS
[ featuring Janelle Monáe ]


Drug boy said it's show time
Streets don't give a damn
They filled with such pollution
The kids don't stand a chance

We're trapped inside the matrix
Forced to play our hand
We're filled with so much hatred
The kids don't stand a chance

I said the kids don't, the kids don't stand, the kids don't stand a chance
I said the kids don't, the kids don't stand, the kids don't stand a chance

Well, since I was planted at birth
I abandoned my own planet and I landed on earth
As I kid I never understood what I observed
Some of it was strange but most of it disturbed me
Always in detention for the lack of my attention
You could call it deficit, really I just didn't listen
And I was always missin'
The teachers like, where is Bobby Simons ?
But try'na get a record deal is all I can I remember
It's funny 'cause looking back on the past
that I had all my days in the streets tryna prove that I was bad
I still elevated to the level that I'm at
Still elevated to the level that I'm at

Drug boy said it's show time
Streets don't give a damn
They filled with such pollution
The kids don't stand a chance

We're trapped inside the matrix
Forced to play our hand
We're fill with so much hatred
The kids don't stand a chance

I said the kids don't, the kids don't stand, the kids don't stand a chance
I said the kids don't, the kids don't stand, the kids don't stand a chance

Sometimes it's hard to grow
While living in fear of the unknown
How can he ever give love
When no love is in his heart?
A child can barely sleep at night
To worry about tomorrow
And what it beholds,
He drowns himself
Deep down in his sorrow
Will you run or will you share your light
Tell a story of the live and try
See it when we're given hope
That we know that we can grow

Drug boy said it's show time
Streets don't give a damn
They filled with such pollution
The kids don't stand a chance

We're trapped inside the matrix
Forced to play our hand
We're fill with so much hatred
The kids don't stand a chance

I said the kids don't, the kids don't stand, the kids don't stand a chance
I said the kids don't, the kids don't stand, the kids don't stand a chance

Now everybody wants a blast of magic

Magic, magic, magic
Magic, magic, magic
Magic, magic, magic

- B.o.B -
These tricks that I'll attempt will blow your mind
Pick a verse, any verse, I'll hypnotise you with every line
I'll need a volunteer, how about you, with the eyes?
Come on down to the front, and stand right here and don't be shy
I'll have you time-travellin', have your mind babblin'
People try'na inherit the skill so they askin' me
Even David Blaine had to go and take some classes, and
I see Mindfreak like, "What's up man? What's happenin'?"
So come one, come all, and see the show tonight
Prepare to be astounded, no Ghost or Poltergeist
You know I'm no Pinocchio, I've never told a lie
So call me Mr. Magic Man, I float on Cloud 9

[CHORUS]

Magic, magic, magic

- B.o.B -
Well take a journey into my mind
You'll see why it's venom I rhyme
Stay on the road, so I call my mama when I got time
I hit the stage, go insane, then jump into that crowd
See, see, when I rhyme I flow on the beat like pidda-dow-dow
See I deceive you with my intergalactic ether
I sing just like Aretha, so respect me like I'm Caesar
I kick it like Adidas, flowin' sticky like adhesive
Be cautious, 'cause what I be on 'll leave you with amnesia
I break all the rules like Evil Knievel
It's a spectacular show, 'cause my heart pumps diesel
So whatever you saying, it don't entertain my ego
I do this everyday, hocus pocus is my steelo

[CHORUS]

Hell Squad on deck
Hell Squad on deck
Hell Squad on deck

Hey, hey, do you wanna be famous?
Everywhere you go, people know what your name is
Everyone you know, tryin' to tell you you changin'
They wanna taste that
fame, (that) fame, (that) fame, (that) fame, (that) fame

Famous, everybody wanna be famous
Most people wanna just taste it
Other people try'na just sneak in the VIP and chill with the big faces
They don't really see them changes, when the fame hits
When I'm up on the stage they sing it
as soon as I step up they hate it
And I'm saying I really ain't with that complaining
just look at the picture I'm painting
Yeah I pay my rent, vacation, then
take trips all around the equator then
come back to the A, hit the stage again
Then I go up in that booth where they caged me in
Feel regular but then I go insane again
If you witness the condition that my brain is in
you would see I'm in hell where Satan is
Hardest thing to do is maintain a friend
'cause everybody try'na get paid from me
But fuck it, this the entertainment biz
So let the games begin, I mean let the flames begin
Hey, I'm just trained in this
A lot of everybody didn't get paid from it

Hey, hey, do you wanna be famous?
Everywhere you go, people know what your name is
Everyone you know, tryin' to tell you you changin'
They wanna taste that

Popular, everybody wanna be popular
Little kids just be watchin' us through binoculars
And then they go to school and copy us
But hey I'm not knockin' y'all
But how can y'all not see it's obvious
Cause cops just be plottin' on us
When the paparazzi be spottin' us
Cause everybody just wanna be on MTV or BET, yo
Maybe sees an MVP or maybe even just poppin' the queen
But everybody can't be a G, O, to the D
And everybody can't B, O, to the B
But I don't know maybe this is just how it's supposed to be
But this is what'll happen to y'all
You know crazy and beat up trucks
The tabloids sayin' that you're hooked on drugs
You cutting up your face then sew it back up
But look it's plain to see
Ain't nothing in this game gone be changing me
I'mma always B, O, to the B me me
I'm famous

Hey, hey, do you wanna be famous?
Everywhere you go, people know what your name is
Everyone you know, tryin' to tell you you changin'
They wanna taste that

Everywhere you go they just wanna be stars
Everyone you know wanna drive a fancy car
Everyone you know want you to buy at the bar
They wanna taste that fame, fame, fame, fame
(everywhere we go, everywhere we go now)

Hey, hey, do you wanna be famous?
Everywhere you go, people know what your name is

LOVELIER THAN YOU


Maybe one day we can go
Hand in hand down a golden road
And if I get there before you go
I'll be waiting at your door
In the future hopefully
Well be together you and me
Don't u worry baby, please

Nothing's lovelier than you

Maybe one day, girl, I pray
We could float off to space
Hold my hand, I'll lead the way

Ain't no ifs, buts, and maybes
Your my baby, my lady
Don't u worry baby, please

B.o.B
5TH DIMENSION
[ featuring Ricco Barrino ]


Oh B.o.B
What's up? What's down?
Ladies and gentleman
we are entering into the 5th dimension,
Right on, right on B.o.B.
B.o.B give it to 'em

Girl, I'm eons and eons beyond these peons
Another human like me there will never be one
The planet that I'm from, I can't even speak on
The stars is what I sleep on, the moon I put my feet on
The way my aura glows you'd swear I'm made of neon
Cooler than the free-on that's in your dodge neon
The say the futures now to me it hasn't begun
Stay tuned to me and there will never be a re-run
So come and leap on my body
and as we come you'll probably feel moist like the trees on the tropics
We gone, we out it, no we don't need rockets
we hop up on the mother ship and we gone, we slide it
We slippin through dimensions, we hyperspace gliding
blasting through the atmosphere, fighting in the lightning
I know I'm out my mind girl, but you know you like it
so hop up on my cosmic highway so we can ride it

Shorty are you going my way, oh?
I wanna ride on your cosmic highway
Oh let's go, oh let's go
Shorty I can't stay here on the earth no more
Another galaxy we must go

Fresh up out the sky I'm like a meteorite
so in the studio no I don't need to go right
I just came up in the game cause you needed more light
so by the time you're done there wont be no more mic
And people ask me bob what kinda language is that
cause I be blasted to the future I may never come back
And I'm a leave with a 30 thousand light year lead
headed to a distant planet called B.o.B
And then I'm gone, man they're not ignoring it
taking off from half court, air Jordan it
All systems is go in 10 seconds I'm ordering,
hanging from the cosmos like a space ornament
Heat in my left pocket left hand, oh yea I bring the pain
similar to an asteroid that's headed toward your brain
My lane, is something that they really cannot explain
they try to hold me down but it's me they can't contain

Short are you going my way, oh
I wanna ride on your cosmic highway
Oh let's go, Oh let's go
Shorty I can't stay here on the earth no more
Another galaxy we must go

Come and go with me, I'll take you to my galaxy
I'm talking bout Venus, Venus, Jupiter, Jupiter, Mars, Mars
And I'm saying girl let's ride all night
and I need ya 'cause this ship love to take flight
let's go, let's go, come on baby lemme take it off
another second we gonna blast it off

Shorty, are you going my way, oh?
Come and ride on my cosmic highway
Oh let's go, oh let's go
Shorty, I can't stay here on the earth no more
Another galaxy we must go

AIRPLANES, PART II
[ featuring Eminem - Hayley Williams ]


[CHORUS]
- Hayley Williams -
Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now
Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now

[INTRO] x2
- Eminem , Hayley Williams -
Dreaming
(oh oh oh oh)
of fallin'
(mmm mmm mmm mmm)


- B.o.B -
(ya) Let's pretend like it's '98
Like I'm eating lunch off of styrofoam trays
Trying to be the next rapper comin' out the A (A town)
Hoping for a record deal to ignore my pain (ya)
Now, let's pretend like I'm on the stage
And when my beat drops everybody goes insane (woo)
Okay
And everybody know my name
and everywhere I go people wanna hear me sing (oh)
Oh yeah, and I just dropped my new album
on the first week I did 500,000
Gold in the spring and diamond in the fall
and then a world tour just to top it all off
And let's pretend like they call me the greatest
selling out arenas with big-ass stages
And everybody loved me and no one ever hated
Just try to use imagination

[CHORUS]
- Hayley Williams -
Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now
Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now

- B.o.B -
Okay
let's pretend like this never happened (never)
like I never had dreams of being a rapper (rapper)
like I didn't write raps up in all of my classes (classes)
like I never used to run away into the blackness, now (yeah)
Let's pretend like it was all good (good)
like I didn't live staring in a notebook (notebook)
Like I did the things that I probably knew I should (should)
But I ain't have neighbors, that's why they call it hood (hood yeah)
Now let's pretend like I ain't got a name
before they ever call me B.o.B a.k.a. Bobby Ray
I'm talking back before the mixtapes (Cloud 9)
before the videos and the deals and the fame (yeah)
Before the ever once compared me to Andre
before I ever got on Myspace
Before they ever noticed my face
So let's just pretend and make wishes out of airplanes

[CHORUS]
- Hayley Williams -

[BRIDGE]
- B.o.B , Eminem , Hayley Williams -
And it seems like yesterday, it was just a dream
But those days are gone
They're just memories
(oh oh)
And it seems like yesterday, it was just a dream
But those days are gone

- Eminem -
Alright
let's pretend Marshall Mathers never picked up a pen
Let's pretend things would have been no different
Pretend he procrastinated, had no motivation
Pretend he just made excuses that were so paper thin
they could blow away with the wind
"Marshall you're never gonna make it,
makes no sense to play the game, there ain't no way that you'll win"
Pretend he just stayed outside all day and played with his friends
Pretend he even had a friend to say was his friend
And it wasn't time to move and schools weren't changing again
He wasn't socially awkward and just strange as a kid
He had a father and his mother wasn't crazy as shit
And he never dreamed he could rip stadiums and just lazy as shit
"Fuck a talent show in a gymnasium, bitch!
You won't amount to shit, quit daydreaming, kid!
You need to get your cranium checked!
You're thinking like an alien, it just ain't realistic!"
Now pretend they ain't just make him angry with this shit
and there was no one he could even aim when he's pissed at
And his alarm went off to wake him
but he didn't make it to the rap Olympics
left to his plane and he missed it
He's gonna have a hard time explaining to Hailey and Laney
these food stamps and this WIC shit
'cause he never risked shit
he hopes and he wished it but it didn't fall in his lap
so he ain't even here, he pretends that ...

- Hayley Williams -
airplanes in the night sky like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now
Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now

B.o.B
CAN I FLY?


Well as this cold world turns 'round and 'round
So much tragedy have I found
If I could take it away, I'd do that now
Cause only in my dreams can I smile

[CHORUS]
So if I go to sleep, don't wake me up
Cause only in my dreams can I fly away
can I fly away, can I fly away, can I fly away, fly away

So God bless my soul
The pain I feel won't nobody know
Cause this world is evil, and every time I wake up I wanna go home
So what am I to do, but sing a song for you
Cause I feel you also, that's why I never let you go
They say I lost my mind but I did that so long ago
So when I close my eyes, leave me alone

[CHORUS]
So if I go to sleep, don't wake me up
Cause only in my dreams can I fly away
can I fly away, can I fly away, can I fly away, fly away

Somebody pray for me, I believe I can fly, yeah, crazy me
But at night these angels be singing to me like
la la la la la la la la la la
So as I lay awake at night, I drift away into the sky
and that's where I reside, oh yeah, oh yeah
So pray that I'll be just fine
I'll see you when it's time
I'll see you when it's time

[CHORUS] x2
So if I go to sleep, don't wake me up
'Cause only in my dreams can I fly away
can I fly away, can I fly away, can I fly away, fly away

So much tragedy have I found

LETTERS FROM VIETNAM


Goodbye, my love
The country is in need of me
And I heard there were signs for war
so I'm going overseas
So don't cry my love
The skies above will cry for you
And I'll be safe so hopefully
I'll come back home for you
Yeah, yeah

[CHORUS]
So please
Tell me it's not true
After all the love I've given
You found someone new
And oh, of all the things I've seen
This has got to be, got to be the greatest tragedy
Oh you, you let it all slip away
But soon you'll find
Soon you'll find (yeah)
What you can't replace

[Female talking]
I gave away my love
That I promised you I would keep
A thousand deaths I died that day
When two became one
A greater force pulled you away
So I got on my knees and begged
The silence replaced my tears
So goodbye, my love
August 1, 1965

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah

[CHORUS]
So please
Tell me it's not true
After all the love I've given
You found someone new
And oh, of all the things I've seen
This has got to be, got to be the greatest tragedy
Oh you, you let it all slip away
But soon you'll find
Soon you'll find, yeah
What you can't replace
Yeah

Goodbye, my love
As I bid farewell to thee
All is fair in love and war
So I'm going overseas

Yeah
It's B-O-B-Oh
No I don't need no lingo
'Cause I'm on this mic I chicka-pow-pow chicka-pow-pow to the beat though
Yeah shoot it up like a free throw
Where?
From the west to the east coast
Like B.O. in the peek-oh
Motherfuck like Danny DeVito
Lemme get a second just to reload
Cause I'm cool in the pocket like Tebow (yes!)
Cooler than the cheetahs on the Cheetos
Don't think that I lost my touch by much
I just been chillin' at the bank like aye!
Show me to the safe
Had to get my papers straight
Now I'm okay
Now it's back to the lab, yes back to the bank
Six
So don't think that I ain't sick
That I'm in places you can't get
When you're inside of the matrix
High is my vibration
High as levitation
High like every race in
In this generation

I see ya (I see ya)
I see ya (I see ya)
I see ya (I see ya)

Hold up, hold up, hold up
It's Bobby Ray
I mean my name B.o.B
When I'm on this mic I melt that fire
That's my job
I am a bomb
Try if ya want
Tick me off and I'm like lit up
So I would in the back
I'd sit in the back
Unless you got tricks, inside of a hat
Then I would eat
Still wouldn't defeat
The fact that I'm in singing this beat
I spit on the beat, I shit on the beat, then I wipe with an emcee
Throw them in the trash
B.o.B stop
Wait a minute maybe just switch up the flow
I was on a whole different level but now I'm ready to level
With a hell of fire venomous flow
Here's the thing
Clearly
I'm in a place you can't really be
I'm in a space
Called a zone
And when you inside you just kinda know
And you don't stop
'Cause you just float
And if you will then I know you don't
And if you not then you go for broke
But this a jungle let me go for those
I see ya

I see ya (I see ya)
I see ya (I see ya)
I see ya (I see ya)
I see ya (I see ya)

'Cause I see ya (I see ya)
I see ya (I see ya)
I see ya (I see ya)
I see ya (I see ya)

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I spit on the beat, I shit on the beat, then I wipe with an em
I spit on the beat, I shit on the beat, then I wipe
I spit on the beat, I shit on the beat, then I wipe
I spit on the beat, I shit on the beat, then I wipe with an emcee
With an emcee
With an emcee
With an emcee
With an em
With an em
