[Verse]
Walls slowly closin' in
I feel the time slowly runnin' out
I think my mind slowly losin' focus
Lately, I've been through the motions
I'm on another level this time
Levels in my bezel, rich time
They ain't on my level this time
Think it's time we settle this right now
And if I keep goin' back to fuckin' with her, with her
I'ma end up with her, oh
Always first to finish last, time to quit her, quit her
Time to give up, bitter, oh

[Outro]
This time, I'm...
This time...
I'm your first, I'm your last
I'm the best thing that you've ever had
This time...
This time...
Last time...
I'm the best of all time

Rakim Athelaston Mayers (named after “The God MC” Rakim), better known by his stage name, A$AP Rocky, hails from Harlem, New York. He is no stranger to the cliché rap lifestyle, popularized by fellow Harlem Patriarchs, from Big L and Kool Moe Dee to Mase and Cam'ron. However, Rocky’s melodic rap style has drawn more immediate comparisons to recently incarcerated Harlemite Max B.

Rocky’s career began in 2007, when he joined the Harlem-based A$AP Mob, founded by A$AP Yams, A$AP Bari and A$AP Illz. Rocky was projected into fame in 2011 following the release of his debut mixtape LIVE.LOVE.A$AP, which featured hits like “Peso” and “Purple Swag,” and earned him a record deal with RCA Records.

His debut studio album, Long. Live. A$AP was released in 2013, after several pushbacks by his label. Long.Live.A$AP was thought to exceed the promises of his debut mixtape, preserving Rocky’s immaculate taste while smartly upgrading his sound.
