The Register

Yeah, okay now there's a meaning to
This thing called life
But you just gotta find it
In this thing called strife
I wish I could rewind and show
You this is all hype
Show you just because they stars
Doesn't mean they got stripes
For real though
But me, I got them verses that'll kill though
And me, I'm EST
Now that's a family I would kill for
Shout out to the fans who held
Me down before the deal though
And I can't forget my team, I pray
One day we make a million, and blow it all
'Cause when we die we ain't taking it wit' us
Materials make a king
Knowledge makes an apprentice
Now ain't that backwards
We impressed by the fame in this era
My girl a queen, she don't need a tiara
She don't need an umbrella either
Just give her the reign we don't need help
They built the pyramids without a crane
Insane sometimes I feel we
Born without a brain
We only looking at the dollars
What we really need is change

I'm sayin', if that shit doesn't register
Might as well get used to
Stealin' singles out the register
Baby, momma calling
She need 30 for a pedicure
Student loan collector blow your phone
Up on the regular
How we supposed to live, baby? This isn't it
Baby
We supposed to have a condo and a crib, baby
Damn
But you forgot the first rule of the game
They don't remember riches, they
Just remember the name, kells

Uh, so go and get it, homie
One thing for sure I know the block
Ain't gonna get it for me
Two thing's for certain
I ain't tryna let 'em pigeon toe me
And if they is just know I'm
Walking wit' my pistol on me
This ain't that B shit or C shit
This is that D-O-or-D shit
That means Do or Die, 'cause ain't no you
If it's you and I
I ain't a gangster but I will
Be just to stay alive
I'm rollin' in the cut, staying high
Roll to the cinema and stay the night
My life's like TV with this daytime drama
All this Law and Order, a lot of comedy
And relationships like Tina and Ike
These bitches crazy

That's why I'm tellin' ya
Look up at the sky instead
Of starin' at a cellular
You could be the greatest
Why would you wanna be regular?
Just know that your greatness comes from
How they gon' remember ya
Not from how you spend, baby, that isn't it
Baby
You ain't gotta have a condo or a crib baby
But now you know the first rule of the game
They don't remember riches
They just remember the name
They don't remember
They just remember the name

Kells, rose from the ashes like a Phoenix
Rows fillin', rows fillin' up in them arenas
Got my weight up in my
Hood we call that triple-beamin'
Fuck introductions
Skip the name and just call me Cleveland
Homie calling for bail
Tryna get out this precinct
Tell 'em we give 'em hell
Funny I started preaching
And when I say I gotta respect
The city you gon' believe it
'Cause everybody left us and they
Know I'm never leavin'
So I turn it up one time for
The days standing on the corner
Talkin shit and getting lifted
Sippin' brews and Arizona
And when one time came through
Everybody gone except for me
I couldn't leave, I am a loner
With the mind of a stoner
And dreams of putting this game in a choker
And fuckin' her 'till she pay me like Oprah
I'm not a hoper, I'm a knower
Of what's in the forecast like Al Roker
So even if it pours, I am Noah, two oars
Two rowers, row us to two shores
Found promised land
Now we lying on two floors
One for the fam, the other for two whores
Fuck two minutes, I did this in two chords
Of course i'm too versatile for a chorus
Done too many tours to be a tourist
Fuck the magazine, I am The Source
I am too bossed to be employed
More stories about your boy than Chuck Norris
Kells, listen up! (Listen up, listen up)

They don't remember
They just remember the name
They don't remember riches
They just remember the name, Kells
