Based - Lil B

Shit’s crazy.

I just wanna be based

Shouts out to Drake and Trey Songz

Yeah, Drake, I fuckin' feel you

I’ve been grindin' in the hood since I can’t remember

And what I thought I gave up with the bullshit

But lions don’t stop, they hunt down what they s’posed to

See me in the jungle, my terrain with the Pro Tools

And I was in the hood while you was shopping at Whole Foods

I left a mark with old dudes, I really peep game

I understand what I’m supposed to

I really say «what's good» from the heart, I’m being honest

But people look at me like a dollar sign con man

That makes me think about the underlying drama

But this girl’s really trippin', sayin' she my baby mama

I’m not the baby’s father, but I still got a conscience

So I gotta be honest, I might be the baby’s father

I gotta step up, but it’s so hard to get tough

Here’s a tip: I gotta be a man and grow nuts

God damn, being honest with yourself is so hard

Sometimes I’d rather be in jail, but

That’s coppin' out because this game I call life

Ain’t no ways out except life

Because even when you die, no tellin' when you go

So might as well live life and see the places you can go

I’m goin' for the gold and I’m aimin' for the sky

Completing life’s missions, that’s the way to get high

Oh, oh, oh

I just wanna be, I just wanna be — based

Oh, oh, oh, yes

I just wanna be, I just wanna be — based

Most of all, I’m livin' off energy

Funny when they help but they really be your enemies

I can say this cause I was fake once too

Interracial boss, my raps never ceased to

Amaze you, grace through, run with the pad like

God with the Bible, lead with the graphite

You can say you don’t understand what I’m talkin'

Only legends do, because my mind is in the ocean

I’m stuck in the coffin, I can’t hear your comments

I can’t see you, and I’m just being honest

So if I ever said your name, shit, you better be honored

Until then I’m on a mission for a million dollars

Until then I make a million fans screamin' holla

Lil B for Lil Boss, want the money and the power

Grind never stops, so I’m workin' every hour

And I just want some sex, so the money like a shower

Oh, oh, oh

I just wanna be, I just wanna be — based (Just wanna be based)

Oh, oh, oh, yes (You know, that’s all I want)

Oh, oh, oh

Lil B, I’m the rawest rapper alive

I’m signing out, but I’m never leaving

I just wanna be, I just wanna be — based

Oh, oh, oh

Based God.

Berkeley.

Bay Area

West Side.

California

The whole world

Based for life

6 Kiss

I just wanna be, I just wanna be — based
