You said it was a boy that bears your name
But eighteen’s a man
I know everything they know
Yes I’ll bear your name
Yes I’ll wear that crown
Heavy lies that thing, I know
And I will dance by myself atop my early grave (they know) so come on, mother fuckers
Here in the sun, there’s only fifteen minutes of fun
(Hope we tan and hope we can burn up)
And I will stare at the eclipse just to believe it, so what?
(Hope we tan and hope we can burn)
Up
That's right
If it wasn’t for the boy that bears your name
Well you’d be the man
It’s a damn good thing you know
That there’s no shame in stepping down
As long as this boy steals the show
They said you’re nobody til someone kills you
That’s what b.I.g. Said so I do too
Nobody til someone kills you
(Yo that’s what b.I.g. Said) so I do too
And I will dance by myself atop my early grave (they know) so come on, mother fuckers
Here in the sun, there’s only fifteen minutes of fun
(Hope we tan and hope we can burn up)
And I will stare at the eclipse just to believe it, so what?
(Hope we tan and hope we can burn)
Here in the sun (burn up), there’s only fifteen minutes (burn up) of fun
(Hope we tan and hope we can burn up)
And I will stare at the eclipse (burn up) just to believe it (burn up), so what?
(Hope we tan and hope we can burn)
Pardon my absence, y'all
I was busy copyrighting books
What books you say? What books?
Well I was copyrighting the record books, oh, yeah
Yeah, I gotta copyright
Oh yeah, I’m writing all the books
(I'm the record book)
Copyright, I gotta copyright
(All the record books)
And tonight I’m signing all your books
(Sign the record, I'm the record books)
Here in the sun, there’s only fifteen minutes of fun
(Hope we tan and hope we can burn up)
And I will stare at the eclipse just to believe it, so what?
(Hope we tan and hope we can burn)
Here in the sun (burn up), there’s only fifteen minutes (burn up) of fun
(Hope we tan and hope we can burn up)
And I will stare at the eclipse (burn up) just to believe it (burn up), so what?
(Hope we tan and hope we can burn)
And we, yeah, we can, all burn up
