"Set The Record Straight" lyrics

Time to set the record straight
You and me, we ain't nothin' alike
Let's set the record straight
Those words you say, they hold no weight, they light
Let's set the record straight
You'll never break the man before your eyes
Let's set the record straight
Set it straight, set it straight, set it-
Time to set the record straight
You and me, we ain't nothin' alike
Let's set the record straight
Those words you say, they hold no weight, they light
Let's set the record straight
You'll never break the man before your eyes
Let's set the record straight
Set it straight, set it straight, set it-

Yeah, set the record straight
I say to my decorator
I got so many plaques on the wall that I'm runnin' out of room
I gotta buy more acres
Maybe I'll just go and buy my neighbors
Just for the haters to have a place to stay to fuel my anger
To make more bangers, a love-hate relationship
'Cause the more they hate, the more I get paper
I made it out the fuel that they supply
People say I should ignore them, not reply
But every time they spoke, it's like they spoke in dimes
'Cause I made a quarter million off the rhymes
So keep on talkin', it gets me content
To make raps about and make more profit
I promise I'll welcome new haters 'cause I see
The old ones are already startin' to like me
If you hate me but watch every move I make
Bitch, you're a fan
I get it though, 'cause people love to hate
But they don't understand
I don't know about you, but I know about me
And fell ya right in my plan
I ain't never met a hater that be doin' any better than me
Go check the 'Gram, 'cause I got

Thousands of albums been sold
Thousands of dollars been made
Thousands of people love, bought a ticket
Just to see me go and rock a stage
Thousands have sang what I sang
Thousands have travelled, arrove
Thousands have shouted my name
Thousands have crowded around me
Bound by the flow that I bring
So let's set this record straight

Time to set the record straight
You and me, we ain't nothin' alike
Let's set the record straight
Those words you say, they hold no weight, they light
Let's set the record straight
You'll never break the man before your eyes
Let's set the record straight
Set it straight, set it straight, set it-
Time to set the record straight
Keep on talkin', it amuses me
Let's set the record straight
All that hate is all the fuel I need
Let's set the record straight
Another day, another eulogy
Let's set the record straight
Set it straight, set it straight, set it-

Yo, I've been around for a minute
How can I keep the clout this long without a shroud of it diminishin'?
It replenishes every time I begin spittin', it's ridiculous
I've gifted my penance and all the fucks of the witness
So mess with me and get quickly killed
I'ma stick you with the hospital bill
Got so many IVs that I'm lookin' like the walls at Wrigley Field
So check the resume, the legends that I slay
You don't know what that's like, you can't resonate
You can't accelerate
You try to bring everyone else down 'cause you can't elevate
You keep your head down when you're talking to me, I'm in shock
Only time I speak with my head down is when I'm talkin' to God
And if you say I'm kind of odd
I get it, that's why I'm number one
'Cause all my new shit's so hot, I got more fire than the sun
But let's bring it back
You are sad and you project on me
And you will act like you ain't mad, but I see
That you cannot do what you set your mind to
But you want to stop me in all of my moves, still

Thousands of albums been sold
Thousands of dollars been made
Thousands of people love, bought a ticket
Just to see me go and rock a stage
Thousands have sang what I sang
Thousands have travelled, arrove
Thousands have shouted my name
Thousands have crowded around me
Bound by the flow that I bring
So let's set this record straight

Time to set the record straight
You and me, we ain't nothin' alike
Let's set the record straight
Those words you say, they hold no weight, they light
Let's set the record straight
You'll never break the man before your eyes
Let's set the record straight
Set it straight, set it straight, set it-
Time to set the record straight
Keep on talkin', it amuses me
Let's set the record straight
All that hate is all the fuel I need
Let's set the record straight
Another day, another eulogy
Let's set the record straight
Set it straight, set it straight, set it-
