Cruise Control Lyrics – Joey Bada$$

[Chorus: Joey Bada$$]
Living in a world so cold
Keep a n!gga on ten toes
Where I'm heading, only Lord knows
Said, "I'm dropping my top
Throwing on cruise control"

[Verse 1: Joey Bada$$]
Thirty million by age thirty
Motivated to reach my goals
Trust me, I ain't worried
'Bout weak-minded b!tches and hoes
These low-life n!ggas
Who ain't got no self-control, I'm feeling hungry and
They just ain't feeding my soul, I had to let go
A lotta people that I really thought were there for me
Were just in my way, holding on the fact of
What we used to be back in the day
N!ggas ain't gone meet me halfway, I ain't finna wait
Had to cut the dead weight
Just so I could elevate and levitate
Now lemme set the record straight
Every day, I meditate
'cause I'm the one they love to hate
Focus on the bigger picture, tryna find a better way
'Cause I ain't finna cut myself short
Money getting longer but happiness never been bought
The type of sh!t I'll teach to my daughter
Never was taught To me
When I was younger
'cause that sh!t wasn't even a thought

[Chorus: Joey Bada$$]
Living in a world so cold (So cold)
Keep a n!gga on ten toes (Ten toes)
Where I'm heading, only Lord knows
Said, "I'm dropping my top
Throwing on cruise control"
Living in a world so cold (So cold)
Keep a n!gga on ten toes (Ten toes)
Where I'm heading, only Lord knows
Said, "I'm dropping my top
Throwing on cruise control"

[Post-Chorus: Joey Bada$$]
Dropping my top, throwing on cruise control
Dropping my top, throwing on cruise control

[Verse 2: Joey Bada$$]
It was all a dream, came in this at seventeen
Me and my Pro Era team focused on the better things
Tryna stack cheddar, C.R.E.A.M. rule everything, uh
Foot up on the pedal and never settling, uh
Full steam ahead and I'm ten-year veteran
How you figure? Name a n!gga that I ain't better than
My flow iller, still, it's the cure like medicine
The cold killer
Glock's up, decide to let him in by Pro Era
I swear this sh!t couldn't be more clearer
It's like I'm looking through a whole mirror
I could see the vision so I live like it's my last day
And everything I want just tryna meet me halfway
I try to stay calm but n!ggas tryna blast me
The ski mask way, looking for a fast pay, so I stay
On the alarm, 'cause I ain't tryna go the fast way
It's a marathon, you can't treat it like a drag race

[Interlude: Joey Bada$$]
Yo, what's your name again?
I know you from where?
High school?
I don't know you, man
Loser

[Chorus: Joey Bada$$]
Living in a world so cold (So cold)
Keep a n!gga on ten toes (Ten toes)
Where I'm heading, only Lord knows
Said, "I'm dropping my top
Throwing on cruise control"
Living in a world so cold (So cold)
Keep a n!gga on ten toes (Ten toes)
Where I'm heading, only Lord knows
Said, "I'm dropping my top
Throwing on cruise control"

[Post-Chorus: Joey Bada$$]
Dropping my top, throwing on cruise control
('trol, 'trol, 'trol, 'trol)
Dropping my top, throwing on cruise control
('trol, 'trol, 'trol, 'trol)
