Fly as a eagle, fresh outta Philly, yeah, I still rep the city

Mirrors on the wall worth half a billi'

'Cause I'm a icon, somebody you could base your life on

That you should place your sights on, shot on Canons and Nikons

Turn the cameras and lights on, I been about the action

Master actor, I still rap, feel like Mike when they turn the mic on

And I got will until the wheels fall off

That's just the will I am, my willpower

Got these cowards sayin', "Goddamn (Goddamn), he just won't quit"

Won't fold and won't switch, I wrote the code, I'm Mr. Smith

'Cause this is the matrix, this is my regular basis

I am ahead of you players, I'm playing my aces, every card with the faces

I am a king with a queen reign and supremе been through the rain

Mud on my feet, tracks in the street, fame can bе steep, mask off, see my face ain't clean

Did my dirt, made it hurt worse, went to church feeling cursed, worked

On myself, Kintsugi first, couldn't tell I've been through Hell on Earth

The truth and it burns, you live and you learn

Oh, I'm like Confucius, life is confusing

I hate when I lose it, but I face the music

"Oh, why did he do it?" See, I'm only human
