Last Word

Lyrics

[Intro] Step in, silk lapel, gold tooth grin Whole room knows when the trouble walks in [Verse 1: Female Rap] Cherry-red nails on the table, click-clack I take the whole hand, never give yours back Black lace collar, sharp little smile Make a bad decision look good for a while You talk big numbers, I talk in facts One raised brow and your crew falls back Sweet on the surface, steel underneath You want my attention? Come earn your seat [Pre-Chorus: Female Rap] Count to four, let the brass bite down One look from me and you clear that ground [Chorus: Female Rap] Dress sharp, move mean, make the whole room lean I’m the last word, baby, not your in-between Cut clean, talk slick, let the cards fall through You can run this town, but I run you [Drop] Hey! Hey! Run you, run you Hey! Hey! [Verse 2: Male Rage Rap] Kick that door, I came dressed for the storm Cold in my stare but the blood runs warm You made your play, now the table gets flipped I don’t make threats, I just tighten my grip Fast-talking suits with a counterfeit crown I tear through the ranks, put the whole crew down No crown, no leash, no debt to collect I leave my own mark; show a little respect [Pre-Chorus: Male Rage Rap] Count to four, feel the floor give way No retreat, no receipt, no price to pay [Chorus: Both] Dress sharp, move mean, make the whole room lean We’re the last word, baby, not your in-between Cut clean, talk slick, let the cards fall through You can run this town, but we run you [Bridge: Female Rap] I keep the ledger, I know what you owe One little nod and the whole room knows [Bridge: Male Rage Rap] I break the lock, let the brass line blaze Step through the smoke with a grin on my face [Final Chorus: Both] Dress sharp, move mean, make the whole room lean We’re the last word, baby, not your in-between Cut clean, talk slick, let the cards fall through You can run this town, but we run you [Outro] Gold tooth grin, red nails tap Deal’s gone cold—now close the flap
