August Alsina Shake The World Lyrics
I heard I was cancelled (Hmm)
Well, let’s speak on that
Red dot on my back, I became a target
And I’m flawed but flawless, that’s what makes me August
And I’m hotter than an eight months Summer in
And I’m great, no debate, no room for bargain
Really walkin’ like I talk it, y’all just be barkin’
And my shawty really
This shit sound like crack, don’t it?
This shit sound like I’m back for real
And that shit had a nigga paranoid
Industry tried to exile a boy
Momma say we all gotta bear our cross
Had to wear it like I’m cut from Jesus’ cloth
Brother Sean told me, “Just give it time”
And your bitch be tellin’ me, I’m so damn fine
And it’s true, ooh, ooh, ooh
Yeah, it’s true, ooh, yeah
‘Cause I’m nothin’ like you, ooh, ooh, ooh
You, ooh, oh, you
I started my label, then shake the world (Then the world shook)
‘Cause goddamn it, that’s right, I shake the world (Shake the world)
I heard it’s some shit that’s bound to go down when you got a billion dollars on the elevator
Well, of course some shit was bound to go down when you tangled up with the world’s favorite (Ah-ooh)
(Movin’ on)
Ooh, ah-ah-ooh, I say a prayer for all my haters)
Earth below knees, God above me
Kill the dark of nights with the lights on
So that the morning sun unveils snakes and enemies
That’s how they
Their friends and families mark their stones and homes with “R.I.P.s”
Just cast a spell over your body and you ain’t even know
I put a spell on you
And you and you and all your ancestors too
Yeah, goddamn it I put a spell on you
And you and you and all your ancestors too
