If you're gonna come at me better bring the fire
When you try and take me down it only takes me higher
If you're gonna come at me better bring the fire
When you try and take me down it only takes me higher
I've got thick skin, you're not listening
I'ma just let all your arrow's fly
Take me down or tear me up
But don't think that you'll ever win this fight
I know what it takes, I know that your fake
You're sleeping while I wake, you'll never see me break
If you're gonna come at me better bring the fire
When you try and take me down it only takes me higher
If you're gonna come at me better bring the fire
When you try and take me down it only takes me higher
With God my witness you can't get this
I dare you to come and steal my fire
I won't mess with disrespect or nothing less
Than what my name requires
I know why you came, you do it for the fame
I play a different game, I guess we aint the same
If you're gonna come at me better bring the fire
When you try and take me down it only takes me higher
If you're gonna come at me better bring the fire
When you try and take me down it only takes me higher
I know, got a long way to go, I'm aware, I know
Sound was a little dull on Aware, I know
There's a lot that I do wrong, I don't care, I know
So turn away or stop and stare if you dare, I know
I'm just trying to put a finger on the things I know
I just wanna prove wrong all the ones that said no
I just wanna go fast when they say to take it slow
You tell me that I'm crazy, tell me something I don't know
I cant even look at you
You couldn't take in all this knowledge if I through an entire library of books at you
Now I'm playing tricks on you
Pull my finger, the one that I shook at you
In the kitchen I eat and I'm cooking too
So tell me the hell are you gonna do
This is the life that I choose
This is the life that I choose
With little blues and lots of booze
We always win and never lose
Got the treasure map and we got the clues
We'll get the house with all the views
I gotta wife and she love to cruise
Going straight to the top but thats old news
Straight to the top but thats old news
This is the life that I choose
(If you're gonna come at me better bring the fire)
This is the life that I choose
(When you try and take me down it only takes me higher)
