Beware, beware of the
Beware, watch out, watch out, watch out
Calculating, watch those steps you takin'
You never know who lies in the shadows
I been lost and led astray, I been lookin' for a way
But I still can't find it (find it)
I been trapped inside a maze, feeling like I'm going cray
But you can't deny me
Can't you tell that we want it, I need it, I got it, you see me
We want it, I need it, I got it, you see me
Tell 'em I can't call it, I'm avoidin' fallin'
I fly, I float, I do it often, steppin' over coffins
We could just celebrate all of the wins and think about the losses
Livin' inside of this life of sin, a second chance is costly
Knowin' my role and playin' it well, I do that very often
Swingin' if I'm against the wall and tellin' 'em, "back up off me"
I'm out of my mind, I'm out of the box, I'm out of the categories
I follow the signs, I'm feelin' divine like all the allegories
It was mandatory that you fly (that you fly)
That you float (that you float)
Till you die, you do whatever you want (what you want)
Stay alive (stay alive), stay afloat (stay afloat)
Stay the course and live however you want
Watch those footsteps, ah, ah, ah
Watch ya step, watch ya step
Watch those footsteps, ah, ah, ah
Watch ya step, watch ya step
Watch those footsteps, ah, ah, ah
Watch ya step, watch
Watch those footsteps, ah, ah, ah
Watch ya step, watch ya step
Yeah, check
You thinkin' it's breezy, shit is peachy, life is easy for this artist
But it's a hard road and I'll be damned if mine is one of the hardest
Kickin' a hard flow to bulldoze bullshit with a full clip
Of reality, real skills, you can't find behind no pulpit
Keep pushin' while I pull this heavy load on my shoulders
To the mountain top, before I jump off like my album drop
Count it, countin' clockwise wise eyes on the calendar
To help me grow younger while I strengthen my caliber
The cheat sheet slipped under the door before the test
So you could peep me, graduated with honors, cross my chest
I be the next best example with an underdressed sample
Gutter-chopped drums beat repeatedly through the slums
Eatin' crumbs, beatin' bums to the punch, punchin' the clock to do it
Runnin' all them rocks from the spot was kinda stupid and we knew this
Still we looped it, pushin' [?] while the hood slept
And followed the leader 'stead of someone else's footsteps
Ah, ah, ah
Watch those footsteps, ah, ah, ah
Watch those footsteps, ah, ah, ah
Watch ya step, watch ya step
Watch those footsteps, ah, ah, ah
Watch ya step, watch ya step, watch ya step
I been lost and led astray, I been lookin' for a way
But I still can't find it (find it)
I been trapped inside a maze, feeling like I'm going cray
But you can't deny me
Can't you tell that we want it, I need it, I got it, you see me
We want it, I need it, I got it, you see me
Watch ya step
Watch ya step
