Franchise the Rapper - Put Me in a Box Lyrics

(Oh okay)
Try to put in me in a box (Okay, oh I see you, I see you)
Box don't fit, too big for the box (Okay, okay)
Brain too big, head too big
Ego too big, I'm trippin', ya know what I'm sayin' (No, okay, okay)

They just wanna put me in a box (In a box)
We got half a second on the clock (On the clock)
You can set the screen I'll take the rock (I'll take the rock)
Never hesitate to shoot my shot
They just wanna put me in a box (In a box)
We got half a second on the clock (We on the clock)
You can set the screen I'll take the rock (I'll take the rock)
Never hesitate to shoot my shot (I'll never hesitate)

I want the pressure turn me to a diamond (I want it all)
I'll get it all my preparation meets the timing (Right now)
Its heating up but I can ball in any climate (Uh huh, uh huh)
Ya'll aint even see the season yet, this just the pilot (Uh huh, uh huh, come on)
Can't get ahead of those episodes
Stepping stones let em know the process (This how)
I see the progress (Uh huh)
They count me out, but they can't even add (You can't)
That's why I laugh
Hard work plus dedication
You do the math
As long as I'm in the lab
Imma give em something these people all wanna have
I don't do it for a bag (No way)
I'm just trynna be greatest rapper period
Box me in with white rappers who don't take this shit serious
And if you don't know what the fuck I do
Let me in the booth
If you don't think that shit's true
I'll go off the dome for you
This my time it's way over due

They just wanna put me in a box (In a box)
We got half a second on the clock (On the clock)
You can set the screen I'll take the rock (I'll take the rock)
Never hesitate to shoot my shot (I'll never hesitate)
They just wanna put me in a box (Put me in a box)
We got half a second on the clock (Half a second on the)
You can set the screen I'll take the rock (I'll take the rock)
Never hesitate to shoot my shot (Never, never)

I got 6 songs to put you on your knees like its Islam
The kids bomb
I just wanna see em jump like Kriss Kross (Come on)
This is just the punctuation, exclamation (Uh)
I got expectations now-a-days and I have to face them
Maybe I'm in my own head
Maybe they wanna break bread (Skrrr)
But I remember way back then
When they laughed, when they ask what the fuck is you doing (Now what you doing)
You look dumb you look stupid (You look stupid)
Think you'll make it in music (Look at me now)
Look at statistics
You think you really that different
I see 10 other kids that say the same shit that you did (I heard)
I'm a rapper, you're an actor
Just a bastard, that's a factor
Ya'll just stay in that box, you're before I'm the after (Look at me now)

They just wanna put me in a box (Let me out)
We got half a second on the clock (Half a second on the clock)
You can set the screen I'll take the rock (I want that rock)
Never hesitate to shoot my shot
They just wanna put me in a box (Put me in a box)
We got half a second on the clock (On the clock)
You can set the screen I'll take the rock (I'll take the rock)
Never hesitate to shoot my shot (I never hesitate)

Never have, never will (Alright, alright)
Its franchise man (Alright)
(No alright, alright, alright, alright, oh okay)
