lirik lagu baahir – protégé
see, a lot of people be so set in their ways that they, they tend to miss the true meaning of everything going on around them. and because of this, it tends to hinder their success. all because they don’t get the point. they don’t get the point. they don’t get the point
[verse 1]
so i serve it to you like wimbledon (that’s the point)
and you know i don’t sugarcoat it for you like insulin (no sir)
all i ask is you add it up like ritalin
and realize that i plan for my success to be imminent (it’s on it’s way)
well, criticism, that’s what i’m always hearing
but they’re never making moves, they’re static like engineering (you’re stuck)
call it beginner’s luck, i don’t believe in superstition
but believe that i’m just heating up like co2 emissions
gotta plan every move, like i run for election
but funny thing they all be planning moves to win my affection (yes sir)
i think it’s best to know just when to pay it all attention
but i always find myself blocking it out like contraception (no sir)
back to my point, like mc hammer, i’m intangible
they’re tryna catch me, and at this point it’s almost laughable
irrational, i don’t react like free radicals, and they stay wishing that my talent was transplantable
[chorus]
and i think to myself, “what do i want to be?”
well i know that i want my name to go down in history (what you want)
gotta always stay observant, ’cause haters stay on periphery
and if we’re battle~rapping, then these verses my artillery
the game is mine to sn~tch, all you can eat buffet
and these jokers got no class, no class like holidays
mostly i’m keeping it premiere like barclays
but some might say that i’m the new weezy protégé (ya)
[verse 2]
i dish out verses for these rappers like it’s casual
and i’ve been feeding on ’em, so you might call me a cannibal, an animal
they call me rex ’cause i’m tyrannical
i dey for yankee, so for naija na international (how far?)
trumping most of y’all, just like my name is donald
y’all can’t speak, y’all can’t rap, you must’ve just learned how to toddle (you just walking)
like i said y’all can’t rap, you must’ve just removed your tonsils
y’all can’t see who’s the best, better go get your goggles
go get your goggles, but don’t feel like you’re worthy (can’t see)
’cause you’re just not up to par, in fact y’all jokers birdie
you clearly lack the knowledge and it’s really making me worry
that’s why i school y’all for free, like my middle name is bernie (education)
my tongue is really burning from this fire i be spitting
that’s why you might see me on break with pioneers that i be spinning
you might catch me in the club and you be feeling what i’m mixing (i know you do)
so just stay out the way, and let me do the heavy lifting (get out the way)
[chorus]
and i think to myself, “what do i want to be?”
well i know that i want my name to go down in history
gotta always stay observant, ’cause haters stay on periphery
and if we’re battle~rapping, then these verses my artillery
the game is mine to sn~tch, all you can eat buffet
and these jokers got no class, no class like holidays
mostly i’m keeping it premiere like barclays
but some might say that i’m the new kanye protégé (what up ye?)
[verse 3]
they’re mediocre, these jokers are half of my level at best
best mc in texas tech and y’all looking stressed (it’s true)
you seen a ghost? ’cause you whiter than chicken breast
now i got ’em on the run like they’re resisting arrest
i’m stepping up to be the king of these liars
my bars are fire, i block out the hate like sun visor
i’m so good it’s illegal, they should call me a criminal
told me not to call y’all out but it was too irresistible (i couldn’t help it)
i stay at number one like multiply by reciprocal (number one)
and y’all looking breathless like y’all still on umbilical (y’all can’t breathe)
naira or dollars, my dinero is still untouchable
and y’all are just some kiddies, let me pack you a lunchable (here you go)
lately i’ve been thinking about secret societies and how ufos are the only things as fly as me
yeah i’m fly, you already know, and my soundcloud is full of cl!cks so let’s go
[chorus]
and i think to myself, “what do i want to be?”
well i know that i want my name to go down in history
gotta always stay observant, ’cause haters stay on periphery
and if we’re battle~rapping, then these verses my artillery
the game is mine to sn~tch, all you can eat buffet
and these jokers got no class, no class like holidays
mostly i’m keeping it premiere like barclays
but some might say that i’m the new jay protégé
[verse 4]
they never catch me like my name is ferris bueler (no days off)
and unless you know me, then what you heard is just a rumor
but people always have a hard time understanding
so i switch it up on ’em, and i give it in spanish
yo sé que me conoces, pero, quien eres tú?
me molestas, estás nadando con atún
siempre me llaman, pero nadie habla
quieren ser yo porque mi vida es fantástica
i talk to much, i think they like my voice
they jocking my style, the way i slide like powerpoint (they keep on jocking)
let me leave you with advice, no change for this tip
but just watch your back, ’cause life is real like gaza strip, well
haha, lo and behold, the only thing that can catch me is my own shadow
and i just block out the hate like i’m hope solo
and naija i be repping, i hold it down, edge control
you get it? like like edge control cause i be holding it dow~, er er nah anyway man all i’m saying is do what you want to do man, put your mind to whatever you want to do. do you how many people told me i couldn’t do something right before i did it 10 times better than them? all i’m saying is the sky’s the limit, do what you want to do, put your mind to it. i’m out
