[Verse 1: Kendrick Lamar]
I'm the only nigga doin' it, you other niggas ruined it
I'm too legit, go Hammer wit' the foolishness
My nana said my grammar can maneuver this industry
Until I'm stupid rich and now I'm stupid rich, ah
(Even if she go away, even if she go away)
Assumin' this is what they humor is
To Pimp a Butterfly my newest shit
Effective rumor is the way I proven it
[Hook: Jidenna]
I'm a classic man
You can be mean when you look this clean, I'm a classic man
Callin' on me like a young O.G, I'm a classic man
Your needs get met by the street, elegant old-fashioned man
Yeah, baby, I'm a classic man
[Verse 2: Spitty]
Who Shot Ya? The Big Poppa
Spitty back again
The Takeover more than a fact it's happening
In fact I'm spazzing on tracks just to pass the wind
Hope they get my illmatics never ask again
Who Shot Ya? Know the name not the story
Like Tory in a Lane All Eyez On Me
I gotta go I see what's set before me
I believe I could be the only (classic man)
[Pre-Hook: Jidenna]
Even if she go away, even if she go away
Even if she go away, even if she go away
[Hook: Jidenna]
I'm a classic man
You can be mean when you look this clean, I'm a classic man
Callin' on me like a young O.G, I'm a classic man

Yeah, baby, I'm a classic man
[Verse 3: Kendrick Lamar]
(Classic man) That's on my mama though
I got piranha flow, fuckin' up your designer clothes
(Casket man) Where be your rapper's angle?
Bunch of subliminal bitches, I'd rather fingerbang 'em
[Verse 4: Spitty]
Oh my look how he done it
They ain't never seen this coming
They running like Caesar's coming
We just took it keep on hustling
Yeah you know I got it like that
Whole squad mossing sit lean back
Fire fuego I'm flipping them different flavours
She couldn't breathe I had to come and respirator
The city sleeping you could prolly come and run for mayor
If you don't like me well it's hate the game but not the player
I'm on something else they don't know this yet
Said I'm on something else they don't notice yet
My unit the gorillas howl at the moon
You chimps like chicks cooked crisp by buffoons
I go heavy like D deep like Mobb
It's Hell On Earth if the storm don't stop
I'm Ready To Die tie myself to the bow
Please let that sink in while I make this ship blow
[Hook: Jidenna]
I'm a classic man
You can be mean when you look this clean, I'm a classic man

[Verse 5: Spitty]
I'm a classic man
Your eyes on idols got you mimicking and modeling and looking like you made up outta plastic man
We gotta do it for us cause what's coming up is really gonna be something so drastic man
But never mind that they mime raps with gang signs and nine gats
So white moms could share posts like blind bats
And hip hop euphemized by Chiraq
I see it in me to progress the culture
You circle sounds like a sulking vulture
You know I run these streets
On my feet no feat is too hard to complete
[Hook: Jidenna]
I'm a classic man

[Outro]
(I'm a classic man) Even if she go away, even if she go away
(I'm a classic man) Even if she go away, even if she go away
I'm a classic man, old-fashioned man
