Royalty Lyrics
Bakes | from Shadows in the Basement (2017)
Written by Bakes · Produced by Kidd Upstairs
Yeah, this is my regal flow
Something extra elegant just to let the people know
Something just to let you know how far that he can go
I just really hope the people hear me when I'm speaking, though
Now that I have your attention, they're going to hardly mention
Who is really out here making moves and who is just pretending
Quietly though, they be impressed with the message I'm sending
Talking about creativity, mine is never ending
All I'm seeing is trends that I helped to influence
When people hated but it's clear now that they're into it
I don't trip because it's the Universe I'm in tune with
Believed and put in the effort, that's why I've been moving
Riding up with my cavalry feeling so majestic
Your favorite white boy with the dopest style, yeah, you guessed it
People caught up in their ego, I am not impressed with
In a section, you couldn't even get on the guest list
People starting to fuck with me though, that's all I know
Because everywhere I go they say I've got the hardest flow
And I be getting the respect that every artist know
Trying to take it to another level where it's hard to go
And now I'm feeling like royalty
Everywhere I go, all the people, yeah, they know it's me
And more importantly, we're all about the loyalty
Got the baddest bitch in town trying to spoil me
Yeah
And now I'm feeling like royalty
Everywhere I go, all the people, yeah, they know it's me
And more importantly, we're all about the loyalty
Got the baddest bitch in town trying to spoil me
Same Bakes, but the flow is just new and improved
They be hearing the rumors and assuming they're true
Even got the baby boomers rocking to it, too
Playing like it's best of 5, and you and I are 2 for 2
I stay working and grinding trying to up the budget
Cutting certain people off and finally saying "Fuck it"
Every time I talk my shit, I swear the people love it
And when they're talking down about me, I think nothing of it
Grew up knowing one day that I'd be the top contender
Now when they talk about future greats, I'm front and center
Every time they hear a track, they know it's something clever
You fuck me over, then I promise that we're done forever
(Forever, ever)
Stepping up to your boy, then you better come correct
And when you're mentioning my name, you better show respect
And if you're trying to book a show, you better cut the check
Word to Ferg, I'm on a new level, I just went up a step
Can't believe that they tried to tell me I'd never make it
But I never let it hinder me on my way to greatness
All these industry politricks, I can barely take it
Smile in your face, but more than not, they're often faking
(Fake ass motherfuckers)
And now I'm feeling like royalty
Everywhere I go, all the people, yeah, they know it's me
And more importantly, we're all about the loyalty
Got the baddest bitch in town trying to spoil me
Yeah
And now I'm feeling like royalty
Everywhere I go, all the people, yeah, they know it's me
And more importantly, we're all about the loyalty
Got the baddest bitch in town trying to spoil me
