Nicki Nicole

& Duki

I play physical on the court like Ron Artest
With an octave, I paint the Sistine, Donatello
I meditate on it so much, I relax, coma 3
They asked if I was good, I already proved it

My pockets are fatter, and I’m skinnier
My shows are fuller than cars on Pellegrini
In this, I’m the boss, you’re just bambini
My brother broke free of handcuffs, pulled a Houdini

It’s all innate
Been killing it for a while
I drop bars, what a murder case
To counterattack, no deals or contracts
I don’t force it; money rains, and I don’t even try

I’m making the stage my office
And turned the studio into my kitchen
Shut up everyone who throws shade at me
Claiming they don’t love me—it’s all lies

It’s the D and the N cooking dinner tonight
We serve them food, don’t talk with your mouth full
We kill the fakes, then clean the scene
Sweeping to reveal the masks underneath

Masks off
Masks off
I do what I want, even if the rest don’t like it
Masks off
Masks off
I won’t buy into their fake telenovela

Masks off
Masks off
Being my best version, in my own way
Masks off
Masks off
I say what I think, even if it hurts them

I’m killing it
You don’t compete
You’re just extra
No rats allowed here
All real flow
Masks not permitted
I’m flying, making stops with God, who heals me

So hard
They give Duko space, and it’s
Touchdown
I’m covered in snow
Bass down
Brother, stay calm
Calm down
I have no doubts

My achievements are calculated, but I’m no Einstein
Royalties buy me everything up North
Talking about me is playing with your luck
Because I always have people who’ll respond

Red eyes, chilling on cannabis
I’m smoking kush, but I’m no OG
They want to see me fall, Lady Di
I only trust my peers, my family

It’s the D and the N cooking dinner tonight
We serve them food, don’t talk with your mouth full
We kill the fakes, then clean the scene
Sweeping to reveal the masks underneath

Masks off
Masks off
I do what I want, even if the rest don’t like it
Masks off
Masks off
I won’t buy into their fake telenovela

Masks off
Masks off
Being my best version, in my own way
Masks off
Masks off
I say what I think, even if it hurts them
