## Lyrics

**Lyrics**
[Intro: Math Allen]

Yeah

Dear Lord, forgive us for we know not what we do

[Verse 1: Machine Gun Kelly, *Kid Ink*, **Math Allen**]

Kells, I used to snatch purses

Now I'm stealin' money from corporate America (**Ah**)

Writing these goddamn verses (**Ah**)

Tryna get 50 Cent to me

Stupid I turn him a G-Unit (**Ah**), make him beg for mercy

Fuck juice, get a keg, I'm thirsty

Walk in the VMA's while your man's rehearsin'

I don't give a shit if he went platinum twice

If he ain't a real one, I'ma snatch the mic (Ah)

*Uh, gon' gimme that*

*Feel like Yeezy, tell me where the Henny at*

*We deserve it (Oh), we been workin' (Well)*

*Even on days when it don't seem worth it*

*I be two on (Oh), new shit, your style need a group home (Uh)*

*Old bitch, I'm beastin', hungry*

*Mothafucka, need me somethin' to chew on*

Yeah, come here (*Agh*) I'm too gone

2 A.M. gettin' head in the Yukon

Two grams of the kush in the blue bong

Two students in the bed from Tuscon

What more can a mothafucka do wrong?

I'm a sinner, I know

Maybe that's why there is fire every city I go

Maybe I'ma just retire and become a supplier

'Cause I'm already buyin' all the fuckin' weed y'all grow

*Know I roll, one to the sky and blow*

*Lock and load, can't nobody stop this show*

*Can't nobody knock this flow*

*Kick down, fuck knockin' your door*

*We doin' it biggie, gettin' busy*

*Competition is lookin' iffy*

*You ain't gotta gas me, ridin' on empty*

*No invite, I'm runnin' through the entry, gone*

[Chorus: Math Allen, *Kid Ink*]

We live fast, but we don't wanna die young (Oh)

We don't wanna die young, but we ain't never gon' run

You can send 'em, I'll be ready when they come

The show must go on, the show must go on

*Can't nobody stop this show* (Na, na, na)

*Can't nobody stop this show* (Na, na, na)

The show must go on

*Can't nobody stop this show* (Na, na, na)

*Can't nobody stop this show* (Na, na, na)

The show must go on

[Verse 2: Machine Gun Kelly, *Kid Ink*, **Math Allen**]

Ah, fuck with me (**Ah**), I been trill like Bun with me (**Ah**)

Gettin' big like Pun with me (**Ah**)

Cleveland, Bone Thugs with me

It's the first of the month, yeah (**Yeah**)

Fried shrimp for lunch, yeah (**Yeah**)

Rossi in my cup, yeah (**Yeah**)

Lace the fuck up, yeah

*Said if you got a problem* (Yeah)

*Baby, you can get the back hand* (Yeah)

*Try and say that I'm a bad man* (Yeah)

*Sayin' labor was a bad plan* (Yeah)

*But I don't feel no pressure*

*Same way I feel about your impression*

*It's money over the pressure*

*Representin' for the reckless*

*Know you could feel my presence (Presence)*

*Through the message*

*Gotta thank God, it's a blessin' (Oh)*

*Been stackin' up like Tetris (Ah)*

*And I take more if you let me (Oh)*

*Just take five, let me shine*

*My eyes low, but I'm not tired (Wait)*

*Keep quiet, man, I tried*

*This suicide, suicide, oh*

[Chorus: Math Allen, *Kid Ink*]

We live fast, but we don't wanna die young (Oh)

We don't wanna die young, but we ain't never gon' run

You can send 'em, I'll be ready when they come

The show must go on, the show must go on

*Can't nobody stop this show* (Na, na, na)

*Can't nobody stop this show* (Na, na, na)

The show must go on

*Can't nobody stop this show* (Na, na, na)

*Can't nobody stop this show* (Na, na, na)

The show must go on

[Outro: Math Allen]

Ah, ah, ah

Yeah, yeah, yeah
