Salute Lyrics by mgk

Black Flag (Deluxe Edition)

2010

[Intro: Machine Gun Kelly, Slim Gudz]
And everybody know I do it (Do it)
Y'all thought he was gone right? (Y'all thought he was gone right?)
Y'all thought it was over (Y'all thought it was over)
Let me tell y'all something, though (Let me tell y'all something, though)
When he say EST for life (When he say EST for life)
He mean that shit (He mean that shit)
It's the return of the underdog (It's the return of the underdog)
The voice of the people (Voice of the people)
And he's still 100 words and running (He's still 100 words and running)
So y'all better lace the fuck up (Up), wooh, let's go

[Verse 1: Machine Gun Kelly, Slim Gudz]
Kells! Straight from the mother fuckin' jungle
Fought with lions, tigers, and bears
Now I'm ready to rumble
Yeah the good guy never wins, I'll be humble
Whole city on my back and I ain't gon' stumble (Let's go)
My hearts blacker than Ethiopian skin tone
Mama shoulda cut her fallopians
Knowing I was gonna be a problem when I get this ink on (And what?)
Is Kells here? Man please, I been gone (What?)
And I'm never turnin' back again
'Cause a block wanna trap you in
I done lost too many friends to the streets out here
Too soon to not know whats happenin'
Call a taxi in, get a book read the facts again
Ain't shit about us fancy man (No)
Welcome to the east town (Let's go)
We happy in (Let's go)
And I'mma put this motherfucker (Let's go) on the map again (Let's go)
Heroes are remembered, legends never die
I ain't dyin' any time soon, what am I?
The hometown hero
Goddamn it with a legendary flow
And a name that's forever mine
Kells, can't nobody fuck with me
I'm on another level, ain't nobody off of me
Propellers and feathers couldn't get you onto level and that's called company
Everybody I'm good

[Chorus: Machine Gun Kelly, Slim Gudz]
Yeah, and when I step into the building
Everybody put they motherfuckin' hands up
(Put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, lace up)
Yeah, and when I come into the spot
All the real mother fuckers gonna stand up, Kells!
Who gon' stop me? (Who?)
Who gon' stop me? (Who?)
Underdog of the year, call me Rocky
Underdog of the year, call me Rocky (Roger)
Don't act like you ain't copy
Bitch, I'm hot shit, you can't knock me
This rock bottom, who gon' top me?
EST be the team that got me
Who gon' stop me? (Who?)
You gon' stop me? (Who?)

[Verse 2: Machine Gun Kelly]
Everybody get the fuck out
Show me a rapper that you think is iller than me
I bet I pull their fuckin tongue out
Nowadays everybody be thinkin they ballin'
I came around and home runned on these players from the duggout
Yeah, bitch, what now
Hat to the side
Bags underneath my eyes
Got me lookin' like I'm strung out
Can't even get outta bed
Without a pair of original chucks laced up
Then we lookin to run out
Look at who I brung out
Every show and every single city I step into
All the greatest people come out
Every single stage I'm on
I'mma dumb out
Yelling EST untill I blow a lung out
And that's why I love my fans
I swear my fans are my fam
Took it from the bottom
And we never goin back again
Lace Up Cleveland's on the map again, Kells

[Chorus: Machine Gun Kelly, Slim Gudz]
Yeah and when I step into the building
Everybody put they motherfuckin' hands up
(Put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, lace up)
Yeah, and when I come into the spot
All the real mother fuckers gonna stand up, Kells
Who gon' stop me? (Who?)
Who gon' stop me? (Who?)
Underdog of the year, call me Rocky
Underdog of the year, call me Rocky (Roger)
Don't act like you ain't copy (Woo)
Bitch, I'm hot shit, you can't knock me
This rock bottom, who gon' top me? (Let's go)
EST be the team that got me
Who gon' stop me? (Who?)
You gon' stop me? (No)

[Outro: Machine Gun Kelly]
LilRed on the beat
Lace Up!
