Babylon Testo

25 years ago way before I was the man with the clout
I was in Pampers, hand in the mouth
Way before fans, way before the groupies
Way before the fam had their hands stickin' out
Momma had the four-door Ford no man on board
Four kids that will trample the house
Weight on the back like camel and mouse
No food on the plate so we Hannibal now
Way before they would play me and they wouldn't pay for a CD
I was handin' 'em out Waitin' on my brain while I wish them well
Still wasn't seein' nothing but sand in a drought
But now that the famine is gone
Haters wanna see me standin' alone
Know when I will hit that wall, make the insides fall
See the empire fall, they been playin' at it wrong

This feel like Babylon (Babylon)
Royalty in my city
Yeah, I might throw the camera on (Babylon)
'Cause what I need in my life I can't get a handle on
(Get a handle on)
And everybody wanna talk
I just let them babble on (babble on, babble on)
Uh, this feel like Babylon (Babylon)
Royalty in my city
I might throw the camera on (Babylon)
'Cause what I need in my life I can't get a handle on
(Get a handle on)
And everybody wanna talk I just let them babble on (babble on, babble on)

See me, I'm back for the kill
This independent track is a trap for real
Everybody's scratchin' to catch a deal
Me? I just want to rap, lay back, and chill
With a honey on my lap, got a twenty in the sack
For the homies, and relax when they pass the bill
Crew mad large in a new Jaguar
Bend a corner so hard gonna scratch the wheel
Uh, worst cosigns had to hand 'em out
I wonder if they ever gave a damn or not
I'm a King Arthur and I demand a slot
That's why they always see me on a Camelot
That's why they always see me on the 'Gram a lot
And mad posers I rode like Lancelot
You're mad bogus, I'm focused, I pencil out
To reach goals, take the mental route

This feel like Babylon (Babylon)
Royalty in my city
Yeah, I might throw the camera on (Babylon)
'Cause what I need in my life I can't get a handle on
(Get a handle on)
And everybody wanna talk
I just let them babble on (babble on, babble on)
Uh, this feel like Babylon (Babylon)
Royalty in my city
I might throw the camera on (Babylon)
'Cause what I need in my life I can't get a handle on
(Get a handle on)
And everybody wanna talk
I just let them babble on (babble on, babble on)

Oh, so Babylon
Started at the bottom floor 'fore I had it all
I was huggin' on myself with the padded walls
Fast forward, matador for the cattle wars
No bull, I blew up like avatars
Now mid, everybody want to tag along
Whenever slip, gotta grip like handlebars
Whenever flip, add a hit to my catalog
