But tonight, you should have seen how quiet the room was

[Rick Ross Verse]
E
Lookin' at my bitch, I bet she give your ass a bone
D#m
Lookin' at my wrist, it'll turn your ass to stone
Stretch limousine, sipping rosé all alone
Double-headed monster with a mind of his own
E
Cherry-red chariot, excess is just my character
All-black tux, nigga's shoes lavender
D#m G#m
I never needed acceptance from all you outsiders
Had cyphers with Yeezy before his mouth wired (Uh)
Emaj7
Before his jaw shattered, climbing up the Lord's ladder
D#m
We still speedin', running sign' like they don't matter, uh
Hater talkin' never made me mad
Never that, not when I'm in my favorite paper tag
E
Therefore, G4s at the Clearport
D#m
When it come to tools, fool, I'm a Pep Boy
When it came to dope, I was quick to export
G#m
Never tired of ballin', so it's on to the next sport
E
New Mercedes sedan, the Lex' sport
D#m
So many cars, DMV thought it was mail fraud
Different traps I was gettin' mail from
E
Polk County, Jacksonville, right in Melbourne
Whole clique appetites had tapeworms
D#m
Spinnin' Teddy Pendergrass vinyl as my J burns
G#m
I shed a tear before the night's over
Emaj7
God bless the man I put this ice over (Uh)
Getting 2Pac money twice over
Still a real nigga, red Coogi sweater, dice-roller
D#m
I'm makin' love to the angel of death
Catchin' feelings, never stumble, retracin' my steps (Uh)
 
[Outro]
E D#m x3 G#m
