You know niggas always late
Why y'all niggas always late to the party
You know niggas always late

Look
If I'm being real, we was the first to the party
We got this motherfucker started
Who invented culture? We invented rock
We invented hip-hop. Who the king of pop?

They say niggas always late to the party
You know niggas always late

Gave motherfuckers the mathematics early
Gave motherfuckers the bath habits needed
Can't come clean. The past is too dirty
How do whole numbers and fractions get even
Actions misleading
Niggas bit 'cause they actually still teething
Never use your neck, when you're speaking to me
White Gloves, if you reach. Be a deacon, my nigga
That's the least you could be
We've been preaching to choirs
Sing 'bout the truth. They're gon' feature the liars
The gleam on my tooth from the gold on my molar
The only cap that a nigga know, I was seen in the fire
We're a couple bad negros
Act like you seen the messiah
Ghetto superstar. No Mya
Get a new guitar way the strings getting pulled and the past get accord
Catch me out in traffic. Need the basket and foul
Rarely pass anymore. Just skip through the lane
White lady mad 'cause I did skip the line
Sorry, not sorry. I got in this bitch late

You know niggas always late
Why y'all niggas always late to the party
You know niggas always late
Why y'all niggas always late to the party

Peace of mind for me and mines
A nigga gon' peep and read between the lies
Yeah
And I can tell you ain't never seen a nigga with nerve
That demand what he really deserve
Gotta be free. Do what I please
I don't want fame. Nigga, give my fee
I don't want praise 'cause I got a whole team
And we got a whole play. Everybody gon' see
Yeah. Black boys breaking out of the concrete
Niggas gon' make the blueprint and they gon' copy
And then you see the label drop me
Put me in the shelf to stop me
But you can't stop me
Bitch , you can try to block me
Nothing you can do but watch me
I'm in the rockys
Hating when you can't even find me
Still a Brooklyn nigga. Don't try me
Yeah

You know niggas always late
Why y'all niggas always late to the party

Haughty with how they moving
And knowing that we influenced it
People don't know the half of it
Let's get down to the truth of it
Just try to find a wave they ain't hopped on
Still gon' say we was looking at the clock wrong

You know niggas always late
Niggas always late
Niggas always late

You know niggas always late
Niggas always late
Niggas always late
Niggas always late

You know niggas always late
