[Intro]
Big shake, baby — feel the quake (yeah)
Why they hate me? Don't know, been a lot lately
(Ad-libs: ayy, whoo, big shake)
[Verse 1]
Red lights in the mirror, city glass reflect my name,
Studio nights, tape on the console, chasing neon flame.
Steppin' out, fresh creps, whole block feel the tremor,
Crowd hush then roar — every step's a new endeavor.
They whisper in the cut, try to map where I came from,
But I move like aftershocks, no calm after the fame hum.
Handprints on velvet ropes, backstage with the cold sweat,
Every mic a confession, every beat a heavy bet.
[Pre-Chorus]
Heartbeat to the hi-hat, buildin' like a verdict,
Tension in the chest — soul searching, near perfect.
Rise, repeat, don't retreat, feel the rhythm escalate,
Breath held to the drop — now watch the world rotate.
[Chorus]
Big shake, baby — feel the quake
Why they hate me? Don't know, been a lot lately
Big shake, baby — earth rolls when I wake
Livin' loud, shinin' proud, never takin' no safety
(Ad-libs: feel it, feel it, big shake)
[Verse 2]
Late flights, lost nights, receipts stacked on the dash,
Gram my life in highlights — but the cost is a rash.
They wanna clip my wings, press rewind to the static,
But I remix scars into gold, my flow automatic.
Studio fumes, red solo cups, beats carved on the slate,
From basement demos to sold-out shows and midnight gates.
They throw shade like confetti — I count lessons as confetti,
Name in lights, new heights, keep the ledger heavy.
[Pre-Chorus]
Bass climbs, spine aligns, cadence sharp like a blade,
Words lace, pace race — every promise I made.
Pressure forge the armor, starlight in my veins,
Hold the breath, drop the beat — and break the frame.
[Chorus — Variation 1]
Big shake, baby — feel the quake
Why they hate me? Don't know, been a lot lately
Big shake, baby — watch the ground give way
I shine hard, stand tall, I'm home in the fray
(Ad-libs: ayy, watch me)
[Bridge — Vulnerability/Reveal]
Mama on the line say she misses my calm voice,
Empty rooms at 3AM — it's the price of the noise.
Lost a friend to the fast lane, left his name on a plate,
Winnings cost more than I wanted; love learns to wait.
Still I tremble before the stage, that fear's a honest crime,
So I step into the light, trading doubt for time.
(One line flip: the crown's heavy, and I still wish for sleep)
[Chorus — Final / Triumphant Variation]
Big shake, baby — feel the quake
Why they hate me? Don't know, been a lot lately
Big shake, baby — now the whole earth takes note
I rise through the noise, build a kingdom from quotes
Big shake, baby — heavy step, brighter fate
Turn the hate to the fuel, rewrite what they made
(Ad-libs: big shake, big shake — huah!)
[Outro — Call & Response / Production Notes]
Lead: Big shake, baby!
Response: Feel the quake! (feel it)
Lead: Why they hate me?
Response: Don't know, been a lot lately
(Production note: DROP on the final "Big shake" — heavy 808, sub push, vocal chop ad-libs. Call-and-response echoes fading into reverb.)
