[Intro/Chorus: sample of M.I.A.'s "Paper Planes"] No one on the corner have swagger like us Swagger like us, swagger like us No one on the corner have swagger like us Swagger like us, swagger like us No one on the corner have swagger like us Swagger like us, swagger like us No one on the corner have swagger like us Swagger like us, swagger like us
[Kanye West] Mr. West is in the building Swagger on a hundred thousand, trillion Ayo I know I got it first I'm Christopher Columbus, y'all just the pilgrims Thanksgiving do we even gotta question Hermes, Pastelle, I pass the dressing My attitude is tattooed That means permanent so I guess I should address it, huh? My swagger is Mick Jagger Every time I breathe on the track I asthma attack it Why he's so mad for, why he gotta habit Cuz I slaved my whole life, now I'm the master
Na-Na-Na, how it feel to wake up and be the (shit) And (Urine) Na-Na-Na-Na-Na Trying to get that Kobe number, one over Jordan
Chorus
[Jay-Z] No one on the corner gotta bop like this Can't wear skinny jeans cuz my knots don't fit No one on the corner gotta pocket like this So I rock Roc jeans cuz my knots so thick You can learn how to dress Just by checking my fresh Checking checking my fresh Checking checking my fresh Follow my steps, it's the road to success Where the niggas looking feral When the girls say yes
But I can't teach you my swag You can pay for school but you can't buy class School of hard knocks I'm a grad And that all-blue yankee is my graduation cap, it's Hova, dipping different rovers whipping with the soda Hova, could u even have any doubt that the doubt is over
Chorus
[Lil Wayne] No one on the corner has swagger like moi, Church But I'm too clean for these boys I require what I desire I got stripes, A-di-das Mami scream papi no mas Run up in your shit just me no moss Runnin this shit like I got four thighs No one has swagger like these four guys When it comes to styles I got several Sharper than a swagger dagger all metal And my jewelz blue and yellow Type of shit that make em call you Carmelo Rules as follows stay true to the ghetto Write your name on the bullet make you feel special Ha, what the fuck you boys talking about? I know it's us cuz we the only thing you talk about
Chorus
[T.I.] {YOU THINK} You can go see Weezy for the wordplay, Jeezy for the birdplay, Kan-yeezy for diversity And me for controversy, All my verses picture perfect only spit to serve a purpose, If you ain't living what you kicking then you worthless, Looking from the surface it may seem that I got reason to be nervous Then observe my work and see that my adversity was worth it, Verses autobiographical, absolutely classical, Last thing I'm worried 'bout is what another rapper do, Ain't nobody hot as me... Even if they rap they ass off blast off and have outstanding qualities, Sell a lotta records I respect and salute that, But spitting real life on hot beats... I'm the truth at, you kick it like me no exaggeration necessary, Living revolutionary, nothing less than legendary, Gangsta shit hereditary, got it from my dad Flow colder than February with extraordinary swag
