"The Plan"

One time for the plan
Straight to the top I got the power in my hands yeah
Live for the moment be high
Act like you want it reach out
No we ain't on but we try
Now holla back and reply
Feel like I live for this moment
I see it in they eyes
Them other n*ggas don't want it
My style they can crown it
But can't dethrone it
I was aiming for the top
And now I am on it
With a powerful performance
I was in my zone
Send flowers for opponents
Tell 'em get well soon
'Cause I ain't in the mood
If you read that word backwards
Then it should spell doom
Am on fire
Y'all can inhale fumes
As I zoom by ya
Ask ya nigga, whose higher
Fueled by a desire you should admire
That's why am what they aspire to be before they retire
Uh a living legend with god given blessings
With a game so cold
They probably watching this in heaven
Expecting the incredible
So baby watch me do that
Uh and make the angels say lord how he do that?

Lalalalala lalala lalalaaa

A champions metality
And so am scoring ignoring the fact you fouling me
And one
Where I go you can't come
I was schooling your father boy
That makes you my grandson
Uh I been around the block twice
Now my shots nice
No referee but best believe out here I got stripes
Now that they must consider me a legit scorer
Can you believe I started out as a bench warmer
Have me feelling like master splinter
Now the haters and commentators say that's a winner
Hey hard work pay off
Nah I don't take a day off
I rest not
I bet that's why your best shot way off
These are the things that drems are made of, its sweet
No time for sleep when you elite
If what you reap is what you sow
Then what was you expecting?
Except for coming second
While I become a legend

Lalalalala lalala lalalaaa

Why don't you reach for the sky?
Oh you don't believe you can fly
I guess I'll see you when you get there
I guess I'll see you when you get there (*2)
