My Own Boss

'Cause I'm my own boss
I don't answer to nobody
'Cause I'm my own boss
My biz is my priority
'Cause I'm my own boss
So if I don't answer the phone
Please leave a message after the tone

'Cause I'm my own boss
I don't answer to nobody
'Cause I'm my own boss
My biz is my priority
'Cause I'm my own boss
So if I don't answer the phone
Please leave a message after the tone

I'm busy, get in line
If I don't reply I'm preoccupied
I run an enterprise and I don't got the time
Talk is cheap and mine is priced too high

It's impressive and you with the program
Comprehensive I speak you go, oh damn
It's effective so I'll never slow down
It's expensive here's the breakdown

Played free shows, opened up for the closers
To empty dancefloors got paid in exposure

I knock on locked doors bashed em down like a banshee
Now I get encores with every word that I'm announcing


Warmth through the cold shoulders
Said no to promoters, I made my own posters
Banking so much credit I could be a lender
Paying my bills with skills is tender

No recession
Earned top flank in my profession
I've outranked those who've done less
And I'm a tank, fuel in my engine

Revving the diesel
I don't need a refill
Gassed up rappers
Thinking they my equals
I make the rules, I'm regal
I call the shots, I'm lethal

Flows so sick they need benefits
Self-employed and I'll never quit
Went all in, you can bet I did
Not a day I've regretted it (nope)

Oh you know my phone unanswered yo
I'm a boss gangster out being dope
Don't want your demo, nope, sorry bro
CEO's gotta go

'Cause I'm my own boss
I don't answer to nobody
'Cause I'm my own boss
My biz is my priority


'Cause I'm my own boss
So if I don't answer the phone
Please leave a message after the tone

'Cause I'm my own boss
I don't answer to nobody


'Cause I'm my own boss
My biz is my priority
'Cause I'm my own boss

My own boss so I do my own thang
Lines blown up that's my kinda ring
Married to the game and I got it locked down
Carried the flame so I wear the crown

The one recommended
I'm the superintendent
The one at the top and the view is splendid
Paid everyday and I'm feeling tremendous
Self made I did it all independent (wow)

Suckers wasting my time
Piece of my pie, here's the key to the lime
Want my seconds keep in mind
Dollar signs come with the grind

Studio's my office, don't come knockin'
Unless ya brought steeze stronger than my coffee
These MCs should leave my lobby
Shredding rappers up like photocopies (goodbye)

Your disruptions aren't welcome at my door so knock it off
You ain't flyer, you the flyers junkin' up my mailbox
I'll supply ya with the fire I got lines you outta stock
You wouldn't know bars if you had graphs up on your google docs

Chill if you know me, won't treat you coldly
I don't compete but I get the trophy
If you my homie, we eat da whole wheat
Breakin' so much bread that we broke the whole beat

Toasty, just poppin' off
All I'm tryna do is get my point across
If I weigh the costs and what you says a loss
I don't wanna talk

'Cause I'm my own boss, I don't answer to nobody
'Cause I'm my own boss, my biz is my priority
'Cause I'm my own boss so if I don't answer the phone
Please leave a message after the tone

'Cause I'm my own boss
I don't answer to nobody
'Cause I'm my own boss
My biz is my priority
'Cause I'm my own boss
So if I don't answer the phone
Please leave a message after the tone

The mailbox is full and cannot accept any new messages at the time
Goodbye
