Expressway

[Chorus]
They try to catch up with me but they can't no
I'm on a higher level, expressway
They try to catch up with me but they can't no
I'm on a higher level, expressway
They try to catch up with me but they can't no
I'm on a higher level, expressway
They try to catch up with me but they can't no
I'm on a higher level, expressway

[Post-Chorus]
Expressway, expressway
Expressway, expressway

[Verse 1]
They try and level with me, I get em tipsy when we high and smoke
Tell em the ripple effect is domino
Graduated on the honour roll they got alot of hope
I'm here to make dreams come true and do the impossible
Yo I'm goin' faster than the speed of light
Knowledge gained from all the pages that I read and write
Yo I'm bustin' frees on beats just to be competitive
And luckily wasn't stuck with a speech impediment
Metaphysical mastery of the alchemy
Since a baby still learnin' a better way of how to breathe
Got a million mouths to feed
Showin' the powers that be
No one's to far to be outta reach
Even in these crowded streets
My sound competes with the best in the art
Still it's hard for them to get the message at the start
How do we get to the stars, get them to extend and arm
But no hands came out
So now we high up in the sky on a man made route

[Chorus]
They try to catch up with me but they can't no
I'm on a higher level, expressway
They try to catch up with me but they can't no
I'm on a higher level, expressway
They try to catch up with me but they can't no
I'm on a higher level, expressway
They try to catch up with me but they can't no
I'm on a higher level, expressway

[Verse 2]
You can't take me down
I take leaps and bounds over the beat as the drum pounds
From sun up to sun down
On the come up never come down
Think you cuttin like my DJ be cuttin you cut down
So don't slack at all, man I'm on it, I slam like Onyx, no basketball
While you cash it all I wait for the investment to pay off
Don't get mad at me you're not happy, you're stressin' at your day job
Get the message playa, play ball
C'mon and get up, if you can take the fall
Take your time
Don't make the same mistakes you made before
And when the rain comes the rain'l pour
So get ready this the day you been waitin for
Blessed to be in this position
Still I question my existence
If I can get to this level that I've risen
I can bring my people with me I can help if they listen
Tryin to get paid, just help yourself by payin' attention

[Chorus]
They try to catch up with me but they can't no
I'm on a higher level, expressway
They try to catch up with me but they can't no
I'm on a higher level, expressway
They try to catch up with me but they can't no
I'm on a higher level, expressway
They try to catch up with me but they can't no
I'm on a higher level, expressway
