Lonely at the Top

Lyrics

[Intro] I don't mean to sound conceited To those who just don't know me It's a sad life I've been leadin' But only 'cause it can get lonely at the top (Ah-ooh, ah-ooh) (Ah-ooh, ah-ooh) [Verse 1] My homies know it's lonely at the top Nowhere to go now, so we gotta drop I'm blowin' up, don't ever plan to stop Hang up my banner, damn, I make it pop What's a legend but fictional history? With its origin shrouded in mystery? Definition don't sound like it fits me If I go down, then I doubt they'll forget me Got you runnin', I'm gunnin' for victory When I come in, no one can predict me Just like an unwritten prophecy Nobody thought I'd be top of them all, but I'm gonna be [Chorus] I don't mean to sound conceited But if you don't know me It's a sad life I've been leadin' 'Cause it can get lonely at the top (Ah-ooh) Look at me, undefeated (Ah-ooh) I'll leave 'em in pieces, I've become elitist (Ah-ooh) 'Cause when I tell you, hell, I mean it That it gets so lonely at the top [Post-Chorus] (Lonely at the top) (Lonely at the top) [Verse 2] Hit you like Spitfire, got you thunderstruck Bad time to flatline, I can pull the plug Show some devotion to the hole you dug Back down or tap out, how's your luck? You wanna play with the big dogs until a tragedy happens You look like a dachshund wandered into a pack of ravenous mastiffs Add the fact that we're rabid, stacking up caskets Where is your tag at? Nobody grabbed it Line up to die if you're tryna get past I don't mind killin' time with the traffic I'm on the prowl, but I don't need a wingman Float like a butterfly, but I can sting, man Nothing but headshots, wait 'til I ping it Serve up the Hemlok, go on and drink it When I come in zipping with force And kickin' in doors, bitches hit the floors I looted a body with shit in its drawers Not pointing fingers, I think it was yours [Chorus] I don't mean to sound conceited But if you don't know me It's a sad life I've been leadin' 'Cause it can get lonely at the top (Ah-ooh) Look at me, undefeated (Ah-ooh) I'll leave 'em in pieces, I've become elitist (Ah-ooh) 'Cause when I tell you, hell, I mean it That it gets so lonely at the top [Post-Chorus] (Lonely at the top) (Lonely at the top) (Lonely at the top) (Lonely at the top) [Bridge] Maybe I'm conceited But it ain't right to fight it No use tryna hide it 'Cause I kinda like it lonely at the top [Chorus] I don't mean to sound conceited But if you don't know me It's a sad life I've been leadin' 'Cause it can get lonely at the top (Ah-ooh) Look at me, undefeated (Ah-ooh) I'll leave 'em in pieces, I've become elitist (Ah-ooh) 'Cause when I tell you, hell, I mean it That it gets so lonely at the top
