Numb / Encore

Lyrics

Yeah
 Thank you, thank you, thank you, you're far too kind
 Uh, whoo, yeah! Ready?
 Whoo, whoo, whoo! (Let's go)
 Can I get an encore? Do you want more?
 Cookin' raw with the Brooklyn boy
 So for one last time I need y'all to roar
 Uh, uh, uh, uh, yeah!
 Now, what the hell are you waitin' for
 After me, there shall be no more
 So for one last time, nigga make some noise
 Get 'em Jay!
 Who you know fresher than Hov'? Riddle me that
 The rest of y'all know where I'm lyrically at
 Can't none of y'all mirror me back
 Yeah, hearin' me rap is like hearin' G rap in his prime
 I'm Young H.O., rap's grateful dead
 'Bout to take over the globe, now break bread
 I'm in Boeing jets, Global Express
 Out the country but the blueberry still connect
 On the low but the yacht got a triple deck
 But when you young, what the fuck you expect? Yep, yep
 Grand openin', grand closin'
 Goddamn, your man Hov' cracked the can open again
 Who you gon' find doper than him with no pen
 Just draw off inspiration (-tion)
 Soon you gon' see you can't replace him (him)
 With cheap imitations for these generations
 Can I get an encore? Do you want more?
 Cookin' raw with the Brooklyn boy
 So for one last time I need y'all to roar
 Uh, uh, yeah
 Now, what the hell are you waitin' for?
 After me, there shall be no more
 So for one last time, nigga, make some noise
 What the hell are you waiting for?
 Look what you made me do, look what I made for you
 Knew if I paid my dues, how will they pay you
 When you first come in the game, they try play you
 Then you drop a couple of hits, look how they wave to you
 From Marcy to Madison Square
 To the only thing that matters in just a matter of years (yeah)
 As fate would have it, Jay's status appears
 To be at an all-time high, perfect time to say goodbye
 When I come back like Jordan
 We're in the four five, it ain't to play games with you
 It's to aim at you, probably maim you
 If I owe you, I'm blowin' you to smithereens
 Cocksucker, take one for your team
 And I need you to remember one thing (one thing)
 I came, I saw, I conquered
 From record sales, to sold out concerts
 So, motherfucker, if you want this encore
 I need you to scream, 'til your lungs get sore (come on)
 I'm tired of being what you want me to be
 Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface
 Don't know what you're expecting of me
 Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
 (Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
 Every step that I take is another mistake to you
 (Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
 And every second I waste is more than I can take!
 I've become so numb, I can't feel you there
 Become so tired, so much more aware
 I'm becoming this, all I want to do
 Is be more like me and be less like you
 I've become so numb
 Can I get an encore? Do you want more? (more, more, more)
 I've become so numb
 So for one last time I need y'all to roar
 One last time I need y'all to roar
