lyrics

Intro:
Yo, haha, don't try this at home, (westcoast!)
Big shout out to everyone holdin' it down for LA
underground, mainstream, put yo hands up(2x), bounce, sing it loud

CH:
For all my life I've put a up darn good fight
Take flight and soar up high into the sky, I aim higher
(Take my hand I'll take you up with me)
All my life it's always been a race against of time
Tonight behold a brand new star shine , I'm on fire
(shine with me)


V1:
(I'm on fire/repeat through out verse)
Yah go ahead, run and tell 'em who's a lit fuse
Welcome to hell, my kitchen, makin' chef Ramsey look like a piece of cake
Dudes ain't even ready to get baked, turn't up the heat now the devil wants the beef to
Like you better get in line, you and half the world starving for a chance to get a slice
But there ain't enough to go around, this markets closed, stock is on a plunge
But I've invested, bet all my money on me, I'm a company, the only one i trust
This is my legacy, my future calling out to me, I'm a growing industry
Soon to be your main priority, Are your hearing me!?

Better run and jump on board this train, we rollin' out
Better hurry up and catch this plane, we taken off
And never lookin' back, you ain't down wit us, better catch a cab home
You'll die alone

-CH-

V2:
(I'm on fire/repeat throughout verse)
Before you even start you better come corrected
Get your facts straight, think before your talk, sound like chump yah you better get to steppin'
This ain't for you, that's ok, disrespect? naw you don't even wanna bark up this damn tree
Cause I've got all my dogs off leash so if i were you i'd just leave
We don't wanna have a casualty, baby's get shook, no whambulance, shove and push
Baby needs a mad whoop, keep crying, see if you don't get beat again
Fuck what you think, i don't even see you from way up here
You don't even exist to me, only sea i swim in is a body of fans, its clean/clear

Better run and jump on board this train, we rollin' out
Better hurry up and catch this plane, we taken off
And never lookin' back, you ain't down wit us, better catch a cab home
You'll die alone

-Ch-
