"Settle The Score" lyrics

Cordae & Duckwrth Lyrics

"Settle The Score"
(from "Space Jam: A New Legacy" soundtrack)

[Cordae:]
I'm transforming to a better version
Looking back it was well worth it
Unbeatable, most powerful, I'm much better that's undeniable
Your skillset unreliable, by all means do what I gotta do
Upgraded, I'm unstoppable
New me, nothing's impossible
Go harder so I go farther
Competition gotta get slaughtered
Get it from my pops, I'm a big baller
Just wait 'til I'm an inch taller
I'ma destroy all the competition even if it's you on the opposition
Gotta be great by any means
No I don't regret it, it was my decision
I'm a silent killer like Kawhi Leonard
Then I make the loot to go and buy me dinner
It's my instinct, I was born a winner
It's my instinct, I was born a winner

[Duckwrth:]
They just mad we're taking over
You want it bad, I want it more
Sorry I had to settle the score
You want it bad, I want it more
Sorry I had to settle the score
They just mad we're taking over
You want it bad, I want it more
Sorry I had to settle the score (Ah)

Black boots on the pavement
Beast mode like I'm out of them cages
Blacking out on occasions
Pick your chin up, why you all in amazement?
I can see it in your faces
You never wanted us here in your spaces
Yep, you mad, wild boys taking over the nation
They really mad cause we hundred percent
Put up your walls and we hoppin' the fence
Take off the filter and took off the tints
So you can see exactly who you are against

They just mad we're taking over
You want it bad, I want it more
Sorry I had to settle the score
You want it bad, I want it more
Sorry I had to settle the score
They just mad we're taking over
You want it bad, I want it more
Sorry I had to settle the score (Ah)

[Cordae:]
I strive for greatness for my elation
No foul play, that's a violation
Plus I may change in the entire nation
But the competition ain't accommodating
Top five, put me in the conversation
Better yet top two, not two
Here's a different angle, I'm obtuse
Got more skill, knock your sock lose
I just win, will not lose
With the best at it, let the critics choose
Boy, I been a man since middle school
I'm a born leader, I'm the general

[Duckwrth:]
They just mad we're taking over (Ah)
You want it bad, I want it more
Sorry I had to settle the score
You want it bad, I want it more
Sorry I had to settle the score
They just mad we're taking over
You want it bad, I want it more
Sorry I had to settle the score
