Steven Malcolm – Rooftop Freestyle

Lyrics: Rooftop Freestyle by Steven Malcolm

[Intro: Steven Malcolm]
Sheesh, ayy
Sheesh, ooh

[Verse 1: Steven Malcolm]
I had to turn it down, man, the beat too loud
Bet when Mama see me, now she proud
Even Steven, he done beat them odds
Far from easy, but I figured it out
Seen a lane, and I paved me a route
Now they pay me just to see me come out
Quarantine over, it’s far from a drought
Anthem ringin’, bring ’em out, bring ’em out (Rage on the stage)
Black shades on, but my eyes on the prize, yeah (Hey)
Midwest boy, really came up from nothin’
My daddy an immigrant, no education
Met Mama, then had me begin whippin’ work
Middle-class, didn’t need it, but money give birth
To the ways of the wicked, I’ve seen the regret
A life unresolved because one dumb decision
All of my dawgs really aim for the ceilin’
Live under roof and we off in the buildin’
And we give ’em the truth so they really could feel it
(Yee!) PTSD got me trippin’
I looked at my life and it became a mission
So you cannot blame me for livin’ my—
Yeah, dream when I’m awake, been that way since I was fifteen
I knew I was different, knew I would be one of the realest that did it
Knew it would be game time, and by a landslide
Ain’t no L’s on this side
Only lessons that turn blessings
Ain’t no rookies, only veterans that pack weapons like (Skrrt)
[Chorus: Steven Malcolm]
Mad Max, I’m too shottah, yeah
Kickin’ that thing like Bruce Lee, ayy
Runnin’ that game like two-three
I might just relapse like Pookie, yeah
So unruly, ask my folks, not talkin’ Hoover
All we been through, life like movie
I can’t blame them if they shoot me (Bang)

[Post-Chorus: Steven Malcolm]
Blame them if they shoot me (Bang)
I can’t blame them if they shoot me, yee!
Skrrt, go, blame them if they shoot me (Bang)
I can’t blame them if they shoot me

[Verse 2: Derek Minor]
Yeah, yeah
Me and Steven goin’ stupid, I’m buildin’ this
Room is hot, I do this blueprint
My flow really ruthless, my Corvette is roofless
You do a lot of barkin’, but no bite, you’re toothless
I’m not the one you should stomp with
You might run out of your budget
My people eatin’, not gettin’ so pudgy
I can’t complain ’bout the blessings, it’s lovely
I ain’t your homie and I ain’t your buddy
But when you realize I’m really different
Ain’t no competition, I’ve been independent for a minute
I done turned a daydream into a business
If you a hater, this’ll really hurt your feelings
I am not one to clout chase
So they overlookin’, they underage
So I stack chips and I spread cheese
I’ma need my nachos andale (Pronto)
[Chorus: Steven Malcolm]
Mad Max, I’m too shottah, yeah
Kickin’ that thing like Bruce Lee, ayy
Runnin’ that game like two-three
I might just relapse like Pookie, yeah
So unruly, ask my folks, not talkin’ Hoover
All we been through, life like movie
I can’t blame them if they shoot me (Bang)

[Post-Chorus: Steven Malcolm]
Blame them if they shoot me (Bang)
I can’t blame them if they shoot me, yee!
Skrrt, go, blame them if they shoot me (Bang)
I can’t blame them if they shoot me
