Lyrics

[Intro]

(The the, the the, the the, the the)

Don't throw no roses on my grave, boo
That's not a soldier, it's more like an angel
You got no where to run, no one to pray to
Jesus and moses ain't comin' to save you

(The greatest, the the the greatest)

I flow like a butterfly, I sting like a hornet
They won't let me have it
Not even if no one else want it
And if I try to take it
They wanna break me down and strip me naked
They write a brand new rule and break it
They lie, they cheat, they steal, they fake it
But I'mma make it, lord I can take it

I'm the (the greatest man alive)

Cut the drama boy, save it for your mama

I'm the (the greatest man alive)

I can't sweat it, know I got to get it

I'm the (the greatest man alive)

Without no doubt, my name will survive

(The greatest the the greatest man alive)

(The greatest man)

(The greatest, the the)

I'mma make it, lord I can take it

I'm the (the greatest man alive)

Cut the drama boy, save it for your mama

I'm the (the gratest man alive)

I can't sweat it, I know I got to get it

I'm the (the greatest man alive)

Without no doubt, my name will survive

(The, the greatest man alive)

(The greatest, the the greatest man)

(The the, the greatest man alive)

(The, the the greatest, the the the greatest man)

(The greatest man alive)

I'mma make it, know that I can take it

I'm the (the greatest man alive)

Cut the drama boy, save it for your mama

I'm the (the greatest man alive)

I can't sweat it, I know I gotta get it

I'm the (the greatest man alive)

Without no doubt my name will survive

(The greatest man, the greatest man alive)

It only gets harder

It always seems so far away

The sky's getting darker

Another storm is on the way

(The the greatest, the the the greatest,the the)

Another storm is on the way

(The the the the greatest, the the greatest)

(The greatest man alive)
