What If? - Ubi

What if I was tripping?

But what if I was right along?

Yeah

I am the nonchalant commandant

Connoisseur of ambiance

Debutant, renaissance man, my schnoz said it wrong

To be remembered long after I’m dead and gone

Chess and never sweat a pawn

Moving on me covert like the Pentagon

I write the better song, all the hypothetics gone

Call it like I saw and see it, maul the mic I’m set upon

We’d all just like to get along, long as there’s a god

A pile of the sodomite in fire, falling like it’s Lebanon

My dollar sign, often 'til I’m balling like my cheddar long

They see what I been selling now

They calling like they read it wrong

Connect the dots, record sales was at a record loss

That’s a fucking hard pill to swallow, why accept the costs

Who the fuck was left, still qualified to check the boss

I been waiting for this moment all my life, respect the sauce

I am the product of disorganized reckless thoughts

I’m here to ask what the important kind of questions are

What if we got a second Score from Lauryn, Wyclef and Pras?

What if Lee Harvey’s second shot was 4−5 seconds off?

What if the government was really at the people’s beck and call?

What if?

What if they make a list of names and try to check us off?

What if?

(What?)

What if?

What if?

What if?

What if?

What if?

What if the biggest stars were paying off the paparazzi?

What if we never dropped the bomb on Hiroshima/Nagasaki?

What if

they made a microchip to track us for the human body?

What if?

What if I work for the Illuminati?

What if my skin was a lil' less pale?

Would I see better record sales like Lil Yachty and Swae Lee?

I am what I always been and nobody can change me

But a lot of you oughta pay me a copy and paste fee, look

I ain’t gon' lie, I thought it was peace

'Fore I spoke in an open room should’ve copped a release

Idolatry, billy idle hands, devilish dancing with myself

Only because you a shot at my feet

My product on the street sounded like logic to me

Your suicidal raps sounded like Logic to me

Killer me rhyming over beat is a narcotic to fiend

My Killa City Committee, our squad is supreme

The army, regiment, company, our motto, regime

With a dominant gene pool and bars outta your league

Indestructible flow, no star power fatigue

Look where we are now, it’s bizarre, how could it be but a

What if we scrambled fighter jets, the planes had never hit the towers?

What if

Jupiter ignites and then all the planets get devoured?

What if

we make it mandatory, teacher trained to use a pistol?

What if

they killed Snowden before he blew the whistle?

What if?

(What?)

What if?

What if?

What if?

What if?

What if?

(What?)

What if?

What if?

What if?

What if?

What if?

Security had knocked and shot the Vegas shooter first

What if

the crooked cop on Pac and Biggie case pursued the perp?

What if

enlightenment was spread and taught like faith is through the church?

What if we’re not the only ones to populate the universe?

What if they made a drug for drug addiction, made you lose the urge?

What if Dwayne was finally paid in full what he was due from Bird?

What if they proved the Earth was flat?

But some what ifs are too absurd

What if

you only get one shot at life and lose your nerve?

Yo, what if?
