I′m humble because I know what it feels like to be at the bottom and have nobody

No fans, no nothing, nobody believing in you

Now look at meI was down on the ground with nobody

Some in my town said my sound was a hobby

Now that I'm crowned they′re astounded and oddly

They try and come around, now I'm somebody

Middle finger in the air with a hope and a prayer, I started this

Never had no money then my daughter hit

That was a get-up-and-hustle-nigga starter kit

Hard to spit, bars to get, at stars when it's, not marketed

You′re far from it, dark and your partner quit

Really barking, you wishing for the spark to get a heart in your art a bit

But they doubted me ′cause I'm nothing like them, never knew how to be

Stylistically foul, and he′s proud to be wild and he's

Thinking now is time to get the crowd shouting

Now people found him, it′s, "Wow, peep his salary"

Way back when I was feeling defeated (rrr)

When inspiration, motivation was needed (rrrr)

At the pace to be great, I've exceeded

All of your expectations, you fakers can eat it!

This my world, this my game

All the wicked shit is coming out of my brain

This is my girl, music is my dame

If you can get it I′m a keep it P.I., mane

Why not share the pie?

Scared that I would get the people liking me and wouldn't dare to buy your shit

Try to told ya before that my flow sick

Milli' sold on the road with my whole clique

Everybody listenin′ to Witness, Tech′s whirlwind

In the club with MGK, thick sex twirling

Fought to the top, never did stop, now we got it, it's "Fuck the world" then

The haters in the past on my ass wanna come around like my ex-girlfriends

Uhh, for the block I (go) to that spot I (go) to the top I (go)

Screaming "Fuck the world" (fuck the world), screaming "Mothafuck the world"

"Fuck the world" (fuck the world), screaming "Mothafuck the world"

Doing whatever we gotta do to survive

Head to the sky, middle finger up high

Scream "Fuck the world" (fuck the world), screaming "Mothafuck the world"

"Fuck the world" (fuck the world), screaming "Mothafuck the world"

Twista, I remember thinking I would rather die

Then go through what I was going through when I was struggling to survive

Full of ambition and I′m ready to ride

No tragedy over triumph and I am a Lion I gotta try

Full of drama, I was feeling like a failure

Fiending for the industry again, I was living in disgust

Doing odd jobs, everybody seeing me

Traveling to work, back and forth on the bus

Yeah, I was fucked up

But I got it together for y'all

Spit venomous lyrics cause I was ready to ball

Started Po Pimping on everybody

And certain mothafuckers that want to get in my circle I tell them naw

Cause I got to get money up in my anatomy, naturally

And I gotta be gradually happy to holla

At somebody when they speak and they might be on that bullshit

So sometimes it′s "Fuck them", I don't even bother

And who knows what′s next for three angels chasing dreams

Hailing from the Midwest, as we spread our wings

All of us striving to surf over the summit

Creating us a vision that would be stunning

When we come to Earth and your city and do a show

You would get to see everybody from miles come running

Yelling for Machine Gun Kelly

And Tech N9ne and Twista get it in, better bring something smelly

We could take it to another level, wherever you wanna go

Everybody put they hands up, I'm ready

Come on and get wild let loose

Celebrate the fact that you made it and let me see you get buck

You done been through some shit

But you did it cause you had the heart to throw the middle finger up, yeah

Uhh, for the block I (go) to that spot I (go) to the top I (go)

Screaming "Fuck the world" (fuck the world), screaming "Mothafuck the world"

"Fuck the world" (fuck the world), screaming "Mothafuck the world"

And that's real, how I feel 24/7 in a city where the weak men die

Doing whatever we gotta do to survive

Head to the sky, middle finger up high

Scream "Fuck the world" (fuck the world), screaming "Mothafuck the world"

"Fuck the world" (fuck the world), screaming "Mothafuck the world"

From the back streets to the packed seats

On the block, running from the cops, like athletes

Ugh, whoever would′ve imagined Lace Up could′ve got me to the finish like track meets?

And when everybody's hot, I′m past heat

And if I don't need the fuel, don′t gas me (yeah)

It's been a long time coming since 100 Words And Running

Mothafucker come catch me

And while these other rappers pen and pad it

I was 13, with a semi-automatic

Anything we ever wanted then you know we gotta have it

Don′t anybody ever snitch, get pinched, you forget like magic

Kids carry tools like go-go gadget (blah)

Leaving high school to an open casket

Now another baby in the stomach of his baby's mother

Never gonna know his daddy, tragic

Why's the government gotta lie to get money? (huh?)

Why′s the federal reserve gotta take from me? (why?)

Why should I be fighting for another country?

Have you seen my city mothafucka, we hungry (urghh)

Representing for the middle of the map even though me and mine are coming from the bottom (waddup)

Why do all greats fall when it isn′t autumn?

Where would Pac be at if nobody would've shot him?

You really think that Notorious B.I.G would believe these guys? (Nope)

All these internet thugs that the media finds?

You wanna talk about grind?

Look at me in the encyclopedia, what name is in it?

I bet you see mine, motherfucker that′s Kells

Skinny boy, six foot three

Heart bigger than an SUV

Lord knows I been through hell and back

Ducking jail and crack

And still, I came out on T-O-P

So this is for the kid who never had a father figure to depend on

Spending every school day being sent home

Feeling like he doesn't know anybody

Because the only thing he ever had to him was some headphones

So he pick a song, and he turn ′em on

Every morning just to get him through the day

Looking for an escape and the kick in the bass

That's the story of MGK

Lace Up

Uhh, for the block I (go) to that spot I (go) to the top I (go)

Screaming "Fuck the world" (fuck the world), screaming "Mothafuck the world"

"Fuck the world" (fuck the world), screaming "Mothafuck the world"

And that′s real, how I feel 24/7 in a city where the weak men die

Doing whatever we gotta do to survive

Head to the sky, middle finger up high

Scream "Fuck the world" (fuck the world), screaming "Mothafuck the world"

"Fuck the world" (fuck the world)

Screaming "Mothafuck the world
