Skibs Rise & Fall
[Intro]
Luca, rise
[Chorus]
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
[Post-Chorus]
This was the rise and fall of my fast lifestyle
I was the main event on the tv for a while
This was the rise and fall of my fast lifestyle
I was the main event on the TV for a while
[Verse 1]
Ayo, this kid's rhymes energy
Seeps into an Indonesian dimes
Clits mind stimulates her inner chi
Philosophies, Chinese, eighth century
Lookin' down on ancient rugs from the mezzanine
Asian empresses caress me correctly
Forty-three on the Brioni vanquish, live professionally
Eighty hour weeks if you wanna get ahead of me
Mentally in a Jeep, steadily rise
In my mind ancient architecture of the Mayans
Focused on the things that I need accomplished
Silk inside of my suit crafted by Italians
Can't comprehend the skillmanship when we designin'
Who are these rappers? I redefine this
Plottin' a political shift in mainland China
Hong Kong child, I put this hook on phonics
This world's full of variables, remain a constant
[Chorus]
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
[Post-Chorus]
This was the rise and fall of my fast lifestyle
I was the main event on the tv for a while
This was the rise and fall of my fast lifestyle
I was the main event on the TV for a while
[Verse 2]
I've seen myself misinterpret my riches
Growing up without a home is just like losing millions
Price paid for a global perspective
Cockiness is different than humility and ambition
Used to sit across triads by the market
He looked like a pimp walkin' with the cane he beats his dog with
Killed her off one drunken night when he lost it
He woke up and cried, the price paid of a guilty conscience
He used to teach me to roll blunts though
His mother and his ill sister lived with him in his apartment
He got his people jobs but sometimes they got caught
There's a price paid livin' with those charges
Back and forth from prison always during my childhood
Wouldn't see him for months
I used to hang with international kids by the waterfront
When all the sudden he would roll through on his bike and pass me the blunt
[Chorus]
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
[Post-Chorus]
This was the rise and fall of my fast lifestyle
I was the main event on the tv for a while
This was the rise and fall of my fast lifestyle
I was the main event on the TV for a while
[Verse 3]
When you're down, dig deep to the core
When you're up, remind yourself that you're mortal
If you're real, you'll attract sincerity
They wanna know how I learned the science
OG's from Queens, Far East schemes, I put my time in
Through my father, I learned the value of economics
He used to move with Jamie Dimon, tryna flank the rivals
I was only twelve but I was watchin'
Face in my rhyme book 'til every verse polished
Life is for those that know who they are
When they accusing you of something that you'll never be
Don't buy them 'cause all those shots are a little cheap
Frenemies are described as a summer breeze
That move like centipedes in your sleep
The sky's can fall, the Devil is disguised as God
Remain yourself, stay strong through the rise and fall
[Chorus]
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
Rise and fall (The fall)
[Post-Chorus]
This was the rise and fall of my fast lifestyle
I was the main event on the tv for a while
This was the rise and fall of my fast lifestyle
I was the main event on the TV for a while
