Yeah
Uh-huh
I need to tell you something right now, man
This right here ain't about the music, it ain't about the money
It ain't about none of that, man
Let's get right
Let's go
And I say New York City
All around the world
Kansas City
Virginia
Memphis, Texas
Boston
St. Louis
L.A., Philly
Haha
You know how we get down
You know how we do it (How we do)
Must be the music that's turning me on
Don't wanna feel no more pain or hear another sad song
I'm sick of days where everything goes wrong
See, I done hit rock bottom and life still goes on
Somewhere out there over the rainbow, over the moon
There's a pot of gold and a silver spoon
I'm gonna eat soon, I'm all woman
May God bless my womb to be fruitful and beautiful
Opponents, make room
The game is game but I will rise like the Venus
And get the service of y'all like Serena, like Venus
I've been misled and mistreated
I overreacted, became heated
I blamed the world and its teachers
I pointed fingers and made a wish list
Felt like the Grinch that stole Christmas
And wished his own crafty ass creeps in my midst
So as the table turns swift, I'm feeling sore now
Here's where I belong now
It's more than the music (The music), more than the melody
Never believed once what these fools tried to tell me (Hell nah)
It's more than the songs and the samples and the lyrics
I'm gonna go above and beyond any limit (Yeah)
It's more than the music (The music), more than the melody
Never believed once what these fools tried to tell me (Hell nah)
It's more than the songs and the samples and the lyrics
I'm gonna go above and beyond any limit
Sticks and stones never broke my bones
But some of these critics tried to hurt me
What you gon' say now when I make the Power 30
And live like every day's my birthday?
"Oh, she must have a ghostwriter"
Nothing left to do but smile
I'm too experienced, I could battle for play-play
Using my inner child on some of y'all
Running third gals, dry your many styles
Leaping over MCs, waving white towels
In a single bound, look up in the sky
Heather B be the movement
Don't make me get rowdy and ruthless over something stupid
It's more, it's simple, I warn you
I can get on you and in you and cleanse you and clean you
Miss Thing, I read you, getting paid in the process
Separate the news from the nonsense
The chaotic from the conscious
The mentors from the monsters
The preachers from the prophets, the hook
It's more than the music (The music), more than the melody
Never believed once what these fools tried to tell me (Hell nah)
It's more than the songs and the samples and the lyrics (Yeah)
I'm gonna go above and beyond any limit (What?)
It's more than the music (The music), more than the melody
Never believed once what these fools tried to tell me (Hell nah)
It's more than the songs and the samples and the lyrics (Yeah)
I'm gonna go above and beyond any limit
Yo, ayo
On my thirteenth birthday, my wish was (What?)
A Casio keyboard, a quick buzz (Haha)
Every critic in the hood knew who the kid was (Kid)
Sneaking up on y'all just like the hiccups (Yeah)
Checking Marley and Control days, soul trays
Now it's the flex times, kick your best rhymes (Yeah)
Toe to toe, neck to neck, down to the line (Down to the line)
Can't talk about the best without mentioning mine (Nah)
'Cause I'm everything you wanted to be but just couldn't (Nope)
Everything you wanted to see but just wouldn't (Nope)
Everything you imitate and try to mimic (Try to mimic)
You need to stop trying to be me, go find a gimmick (Yeah)
Don't try to limit (Huh?), mo' tie the limit (Yeah)
When I honk the horn, I got no time for shit
Rather make money than be chewing the fat
With you, with y'all, with them and them dudes in the back (Oh yeah)
Like a breath of fresh air, set the
Mood to the track (Mood to the track)
You better change the D, I'm the new running back (New running back)
Long yards, born stars, niggas going hard
Knock niggas off guard, a verbal assault charge (Yo, ayo, what?)
It's more than the music, more than the melody
Never believed once what the fools tried to tell me
It's more than the songs, the samples, the lyrics
I'm gonna go up and beyond any limit
