lyrics

i was sixteen when i left the farm with a dirty suitcase packed under my arm i spent my life saving on a beat up ride no plan just get behind the wheel and drive to the first new town that i could find hit the reset button leave the past behind i'ma rise through the ranks with my bold finesse that's what i did and nonetheless i'm the kingpin saying everything i've been thinking eye on the prize ain't blinking calling out shots like a goddamn boss with the top notch sauce i'm a big noise smoking upstairs with the big boys never thought i'd make it up to this point getting so paid so laid so made but i gotta get away cause i came into this town in a car for a clown on the edge of breaking down again but i'm leaving in a black cadillac and i'm never coming back again catch me up here at the top of the pops won't stop won't flop i'm the cream of the crop everybody know the cream rises to the top clean house run shop gonna sweep gotta mop gotta stay pristine i'm crystal clean you can catch me on the scene tryna' keep this thing on the low key scheme if you know what i mean cuz living in a cream dream is harder than it seems for the kingpin saying everything i've been thinking eye on the prize ain't blinking calling out shots like a goddamn boss with the top notch sauce i'm a big noise smoking upstairs with the big boys never thought i'd make it up to this point getting so paid so laid so made but i gotta get away cause i came into this town in a car for a clown on the edge of breaking down again but i'm leaving in a black cadillac and i'm never coming back again i came into this town in a car for a clown on the edge of breaking down again but i'm leaving in a black cadillac and i'm never coming back again now that everybody wanna get to know that's my cue i've got to go my time in this town has been well spent but i gotta do the whole thing over again go to a new town just the same gonna find a new car and make a new name for myself and my health and my wealth and my plans ain't nobody understands why i'm washing my hands no cuz im the kingpin saying everything i've been thinking eye on the prize ain't blinking calling out shots like a goddamn boss with the top notch sauce i'm a big noise smoking upstairs with the big boys never thought i'd make it up to this point getting so paid so laid so made but i gotta get away cause i came into this town in a car for a clown on the edge of breaking down again but i'm leaving in a black cadillac and i'm never coming back again
