[Verse 1]
Okay, Ko-Kobe doin' work, two-four on my shirt
He the greatest on the court, and I'm the greatest on the verse
Going for the fourth ring like it was the first
Gotta get the gleem, do it for Kareem
Two-four so nice, my flow so mean
Catch me at the game sitting next to Goldstein
Ko-Kobe Bryant Nikes, purple gold strings
Ko-Kobe in the game dunkin' on the whole team, yeah
Bla-Black Mamba, attack, conquer
The basketball beast, ra-rap monster
The crossover good, the turnaround jumper
Or just drive the lane and dunk on dunkers
You know where it's goin', it's goin' down, yo
This is the Lakeshow, but don't drown, though
I call him King Bryant, now let the crown show

[Verse 2]
Watch me get 'em like Kobe, yeah
Sick with it, no COVID, yeah
Black clouds break open, yeah
Rain down black roses, yeah
I smell the rose, now I'm focused, yeah
The game is cold, but I'm frozen, yeah
The lanes are closed, but I'm bowling, yeah
All Mamba, no cobra, uh
All around, no borders, uh
All eyes take notice, uh
Recognize my importance, uh
Never die, I'm immortal, uh
Got the culture on my shoulders, uh
See the vultures flying over
Now we marchin' like we shoulders
'Til we walkin' like we strollin', yeah
Sixty points in my last game like that's game, yeah, yerr
Put five rings on my last name, Oscar could've been my first
On one leg, on my last leg, I want the last shot, that's work
No Achilles Heel, I told Phil, "It's the last dance, now twerk"

[Bridge]
Heart gold, beatin' out my chest, and it goes rat-tata-tata

Two fingers for the Mambacita, I'm screamin' Black Mamba matters, yeah
Heart goes out to Vanessa and the whole Black Mamba family, BMF
Heart is gold, it's beatin' out my chest, and it goes rat-tata-tata, yeah
This is Black entertainment, baby, this is Black power status, yeah
Two fingers for the Mambacita, I'm screamin' Black Mamba matters, yeah
Heart goes out to Vanessa and the whole Black Mamba family, BMF

We the best, on G-O-D, yeah, Weezy F

Rest in power and hope for peace
Black lives matter, facts
That's a matter of fact
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Lil Wayne

Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr., better known by his stage name Lil Wayne, grew up in the Hollygrove neighborhood of New Orleans, Louisiana.

At the age of nine, Lil Wayne joined Cash Money Records as the youngest member of the label, and half of the duo, The B.G.‘z, with B.G.. In 1997, Lil Wayne joined the group Hot Boys, which also included rappers Juvenile, B.G., and Young Turk. Lil Wayne gained most of his success with the group’s major selling album Guerrilla Warfare, released in 1999. He has been listed in the 2012 Guinness Book Of World Records for the record of Most US Hot 100 Hits By A Rap Artist with 64 hits between 1999 and 2010.

Wayne is famous for his command of slow, witty lines and metaphorical jokes. His discography includes a slew of successful mixtapes, including Dedication 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6; No Ceilings; and Da Drought 3. His albums consistently garner acclaim, with Tha Carter series all platinum hits. Tha Carter series has been a work of Wayne’s for 13 years and continues to grow with the fifth installment, Tha Carter V released in 2018 (however, it was initially supposed to be released in late 2014). Wayne keeps a regular recording schedule, with studio booths in his tour bus, home, and following him everywhere.
