[Hook]
(Bitch, I'm way up here)
Can't hear what you're saying
Go on with all that hate
So it's fuck you, pay me, I said
(Bitch, I'm way up here)
Can't hear what you're saying
Go on with all that hate
So it's fuck you, pay me

[Verse 1]
(Bitch, I'm way up here)
You a tattoo to a statue
Run a mic like Michelangelo draw, too
While I turn this bitch into Saw II
(Bitch, I'm way up here)
And you down there on that totem pole
I'm on the road and I'll fuck your girl
And I'll put this dick up in a whirl
(Bitch, I'm way up here)
And you down there like a little nigga
I'll buy you up on that rent card
You still around? You better thank God
(Bitch, I'm way up here)
I ain't worry what's down there
I'll take a step, look on my shoe
And you'll be splattered everywhere
(Bitch, I'm way up here)
Can't hear what none of y'all talking 'bout
I'm on top of my mountain
And y'all just started climbing rocks step
(Bitch, I'm way up here)
Can't hear what you're saying
Go on with all that hate
So it's fuck you, pay me
(Bitch, I'm way up here)
Don't care what down there doing
Cause up here, up here, down there, down there
And you don't moving how I'm moving

[Hook]
(Bitch, I'm way up here)
Can't hear what you're saying
Go on with all that hate
So it's fuck you, pay me, I said
(Bitch, I'm way up here)
Can't hear what you're saying
Go on with all that hate
So it's fuck you, pay me

[Verse 2: Ab-Soul]
(Bitch, I'm way up here)
Come on girl, is you down?
You with it? I'm with it
Go on 'head, go down, uh
(Bitch, I'm way up here)
Puffing pot on a mountain top
Dipping in that bag
White girl on my countertop (Soulo)
(Bitch, I'm way up here)
Drop it like it's hot, ho
I ain't move no birds, but
She in love with my cock, though
(Bitch, I'm way up here)
Looking down on you little niggas
Got a 16 with a seal on it
Shot glass with a pill in it
(Bitch, I'm way up here)
Y'all all under my telescope
So much that I'm squinting
You ain't snitching, but you can tell I'm dope
(Bitch, I'm way up here)
Hah, can't hear what you saying
Smoking on that strong, strong
Like a Super Saiyan, saying
(Bitch, I'm way up here)
Soulo, yeah, HiiiPower, Top Dawg
All dogs go to heaven, not y'all

Born Daniel Dewan Sewell on March 16, 1981, Danny Brown is a rapper originating from the Dexter-Linwood area of Detroit, Michigan.

Danny is a rather unconventional rapper, employing multiple flows and cadences, thus the moniker of “The Hybrid.” His style varies from his normal rapping voice, to low pitched gravely tones to a manic, and high-pitched squawk. He started finding the “high-pitched squawk” and let it accustom to his style around the time of the release of XXX, his third mixtape. Danny is currently signed to Warp and Fool’s Gold Records, the former record label that he released his most recent (and most experimental) album on in 2016, Atrocity Exhibition. He has also collaborated with fellow Detroit artists such as Black Milk, a perfect example being their 2011 collaborative EP Black and Brown.

After many mixtapes being self-released (the Detroit State of Mind series from 2007 to 2010, and Hot Soup in 2008), Danny finally released his full-length album The Hybrid in 2010 with notable producers behind the project such as Frank Dukes, Quelle, and Chuck English. While XXX was the point where he became accustomed to the so-called “high-pitched squawk,” this was the first time that he had recognized it and was then transformed into the Danny Brown we know today who incorporated many unique styles into his rapping and delivery.
