Got no need for the fancy things

All the attention that it brings

Tell me no, I say yes, I was chosen

And I will deliver the explosion

Can't say it's gonna get me far

Do no good to say what you are

I run the streets and I break up houses

River runs deep and the flame devours it

Me, I'm a creator

Thrill is to make it up

The rules I break got me a place

Up on the radar

Me, I'm a taker

Know what the stakes are

Can't roll it back, it's understood

Got to play our cards

Sit tight I know what you are

Mad bright, but you ain't no star

Polish up 'til you make it gleam

Your m.o., I know what you mean

Tail riding and I know it's true

While they screaming "I love you"

Down deep you know there ain't no flow

A soul decay was d.o.a., yeah

I know what you here for now

Word's out, you're an ideal whore now

Now don't you crush on me

I'll see you in your pipe dreams

Whether or not you know it's true

You are who they dictate to

That shit must hurt real bad

Fakin' what you wish you had

Me, I'm a creator

Thrill is to make it up

The rules I break got me a place

Up on the radar

Me, I'm a taker

Know what the stakes are

Can't roll it back, it's understood

Got to play our cards

Here all the folks come ask about me

Bandwagon, but they used to doubt me

Blind side tend to hit real hard

You should heed the warning, get a bodyguard

Steady friction in this bitch

Creeping in just like an itch

So far, I got the last laugh

Still the rich rise up, still I live fast

Wouldn't know it face to face

Got no soul and got no taste

Moving in, speed up the pace

I got it locked, though, what a waste

All the talk is standard fare

Walk the walk if it gets you there

On the grind 'til the gig is up

I'll smash 'em down, put a muzzle on them like "what!"

Me, I'm a creator

Thrill is to make it up

The rules I break got me a place

Up on the radar

Me, I'm a taker

Know what the stakes are

Can't roll it back, it's understood

Got to play our cards
