Come on baby, light my fire Everything you drop is so tired Music is supposed to inspire How come we ain't getting no higher? Now tell me your philosophy On exactly what an artist should be Should they be someone with prosperity And no concept of reality? Now, who you know without any flaws That lives above the spiritual laws And does anything they feel just because There's always someone there who'll applaud
Come on baby, light my fire Everything you drop is so tired Music is supposed to inspire So, how come we ain't getting to nigher? I know you think that you've got it all And by making other people feel small Makes you think you're unable to fall But when you do, who you gonna call?

Come on baby, light my fire Everything you drop is so tired Music is supposed to inspire So, how come we're not getting no higher? I cross sands in distand lands, made plans with the sheiks Why you beef with freaks as my album sales peak? All I wanted was to sell like 500 And be a ghetto superstar since my first album 'Blunted' I used to work at Foot Locker, they fired me and fronted Or I quitted, now I spit it - however do you want it? Now you get it! Writing rhymes my range with the frames sightly tinted Then send it to your block and have my full name cemeented And if your rhymes sound like mine, I'm taking a percentage Unprecedented and still respected when it vintage I'm serious, I'm taking over areas in Aquarius Running red lights with my 10,000 chariotes Just as Christ was a superstar, you stupid star They'll hail you then they'll nail you, no matter who you are They'll make you now then take you down And make you face it, if you slit the bag open And put your pinky in it, then taste it
Come on baby, light my fire Everything you drop is so tired Music is supposed to inspire So, how come we ain't getting no higher
