Even if it ain't all it seems

Now I'm down in Tribeca
Right next to the Devereaux
But I'll be hood forever
[B] I'm an open line truck
And since I made it here
I could make it anywhere
You ain't love me anywhere
I used [F#] to come in Harlem
All of my Demini Conos
Right there up on Broadway
Pull me back to that McDonald's
Look [B] into my black box
560 Faith Street
Catch me in the kitchen
Like a Simmons with the pastry
[F#] Spooling down A Street
Off-white Lexus
Driving so slow
But BK is from Texas
[B] See him on the bathtub
Home of that boy Biggie
Now I live on Billboard
And I pull up boys with me
[F#] Saying what up to Tata
He'll sip in my tub
Sitting talk talk
Fixin' that Jimmy hot pot
[A#] Yeah, I be spiked up
I can triple peppery
Tell by my attitude
That I'm most definite

Oh, see, I'm the Yankee King
Yeah, I made that Yankee have more flavors
Than a Yankee King
[B] You should know I'm Lee Blue
But I'm out of grip though
But I got the whole nation
Blessed with my clique, yo
[F#] Welcome to the Moline Pot
Corners where they love to rock
Africa from Vatican
Home of the hip hop
[B] Yellow cap, 50 cap, salad cap
Hollaback with foreigners in A-fit
They act like they work a hotter ass
[F#] A-thing is starving
I'm living in A-thing
Phineas and Peri
How come y'all won't make it?
[B] Me, I got a plug
Special Red, I got it made
GD, Payne, LeBron, I'm paid
[F#] Three dice, Cee-Lo
Three-card, Marley
Labor Day Parade
Rest in peace, Bob [A#] Natural liberty
Long live the wild trip
Long live the queen, yo
