Wale - Staying Power Lyrics
Lately been feelin' like niggas doubt me
Trust me, they don't got no staying power
Left Atlantic, 'bout a minute later
Every record label try and scout me
Representin' all official niggas
I tell her to fly, she catch a Delta
Or she RHO, or she get to steppin'
AKA, I be speaking wreckless
'07 my Supreme jacket
AKAs at Virginia State
My second year, I tried to get one pregnant
Early bird, that was Petersburg
Now, my little bird fly to Teterboro
Halliburton full of Blues Brothers
Ain't no Akroyd or Belushi neither
Hearing voices, I don't sleep heavy
Had a choice, I can turn a back?
I be runnin' back for a team or something
Kick return, wide-receiver money
Now, I'm sneaking burners in the club
I'm not concerned about who beefing with us
I can give 'em words, I could beat 'em up
Rap dudes, I'm Zab Judah
Hook, cross, jab, jab through em'
Uber X, I'm in a Maxima
She was in Maxim mag, she got a attitude, uh
But, I'm cool though
I'm not a little nigga tryna big boy
I'm like the outcast of the new school
Spent about three stacks on a Bitcoin, ayy
I got dick for her
You a simp, why you gotta buy a gift for her?
Might buy me a 'rari, you buying Foamposites
And walk around like we ain't different
Shit, y'all just Instagram
Shit, y'a just Twitter shit, yeah
I ain't about to tit for tat, but nigga check the map
Guess who put shit there? Me, Folarin
I got her, and I can outrap my opponents
And I'm not too popular, media treat my passion like a hazard or something
Y'all get the handoff and fumble it
Me, I get it and Alvin Kamara it
Simple city niggas wild with me, so you outta town niggas humble it
Gassing on beats, and I look sweet
The homies is homonyms out in these streets
You probably is wondering what do that mean?
I ain't too deep, but I ain't too deep
Sweet
I am the legend niggas trying to be
Went to Portland before I signed with my team
Niggas couldn't fly on they feet
Never that broke shit applying to me
Forever that dope shit, it run in my blood like I'm sipping mud
And tired and sleep
We laughing at who thoughts, it's quiet for me
I quietly quietly built my empire, to set afire to the rivaling teams
I'm a lion, you are just a feline
Devour anybody bothering me
Blood on my teeth
All of my queens got blood on they sneakers
All of my women be loyal and honest
I take 'em all shopping then burn the receipt
Who fucking with me?
Nah really? Who fucking with me?
Folarin, the godbody flow
The godfather himself
Rest in Peace to Chuck Brown
He said, "Young man, when it's your time, you'll have the whole nation's capital and the surrounding towns and boroughs to be following you"
Well you and I know it's only kinda true
It's more like, "You shining lil dude, see see there a lot life limits about to come through, but if your run Joe, and bust loose and grind, grind, grind, them lemons are set up, you will get sa juice"
And I got that now
Flex attitude made her drop that down
I'm off that brown
I'm from uptown
In the school of Maryland, guess I'm from there now
Hol' up, yeah, I don't care though
You an H&M nigga, a banana ho
You a lil bamma nigga with no real dough
How you got a landlord and a Lambo? Hol' up
Y'all can't tell me shit
If your bitch is always on my dick
Spent about 240 on my wrist
Every time that I record, I'm lit, uh
Ask money, ask money
Ass bet, go 'head, mask on me
Actin' gig from Judd Apatow
It's so funny, I'm fly from my "crashing" gig
Maxfield, tryna see how fast it burn
In the field like a running back or somethin'
I got the passion in me, just got a bag to push it
'Cause y'all rappin' niggas ain't really rappin' good
I'm gone, Folarin
I got it, and I can out-rap my opponents
Niggas do not want no smoke with me
Nicotine patches on raps and my poems
Somebody tell 'em I'm back in my zone
Olu back in his zone
So I'm back in my zone, hold it

Wale Staying Power Comments
best Wale song hands down
They burned the receipt who fuxking wiff me ,💪💪
I dont like rap. I don't like rappers. I do love Wale. His sound is like a mixture of the 80s, 90s, 00s combined. Like hot liquid amber against the ears.
Please help me understand how possible it is that a whole 600 people disliked the video???? Like TF is wrong with them?
This was my most played song on spotify last year 👏👏👏 mf killed this hoe
3:58 he missed 😂😂
Who is this beautiful woman in the video? Asking for a friend.
Lyrical genius in a era where MCs dont exist wale is keep it alive
Can we get this wale and not the just chill wale plz
Its the same Wale. Nobdy wants to hear deep lyrical spiritual ery song. On Chill is a timeless classic record.
#Wale #Poet 🥰🔥🔥🔥
Who is the fine lady he's with????
D.C. ALL DAY
2019 ??? 🔥🔥
Gregg Thompson still fire. 2018 wale was laying the groundwork for 2019. Next album gonna be 🔥
Media treat my passion like a hazard or something 😑
Wale can change his flow up a keep up with the time change in rap good flow but love his old flow
Sampled from BARRY WHITE- staying power

Someone listens to Joe Budden... shiiiit
2019 still playin loud
love wale
How the f€%k this song still at less than 2 millions views 🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️🤔🤔🤔
I'm very upset this doesn't have 400 millions views
Wale just lose niggas when he tries to do that little melody singing shit. If wale just raps, like str8 raps, he definitely got all these guys beat. Flow nice, endless content to speak on, and its the way he pronounce words and mix em up that gives he's raps more flavor. Love it
00:29 wale’s condom door dash
He doesn't get the credit he deserves.
wale season coming watch
Dope song my guy
Only 1.4 million ... 🤦🏾♂️ y’all sleeping 😴😴

Got that Keith & James brim on in the beginning... I went to high school in N.C. with the owner of that brim company graduated the same year
#Saints
He was definitely headed in that direction. Not sure what kept him from getting there in the eyes of the masses
That shiit is hard ..Dope record! definitely on my playlist bro
Timeless Lyricism💎💯 -Legends
Brian Vee a new wale x nipsey collab would be crayyy

😎
This Is :
"Footstool"
My version was like :
"Seat of your jokes"
{ jokez/jugkz }*
SLOoOOOooOoooow
😎 THE BEAT AND THE DELIVERY OF THE FLOW YEA 👍
THE LYRICS ARE HALF WAY ON POINT LIKE NAH 👎
110% FLOW IN THE DELIVERY 👍
How does this not have more views? Str8 🔥
Damn! This is too lit 🔥🔥
"I tell her fly and she catch a Delta, or she Rho/row or she get to stepping. AKA/aka I be speaking reckless" -- Wale so far over peoples head man. The air gotta be thin up there. Crazy sorority scheme.
army (bts fan) here supporting wale he's so talented and deserves more recognition
Anyone here bc matt and leo roasted him? Lmfao!
Nobody knows who they are... We here because we fans... Stop being a groupie
@Born in D.C. in 88 that's why I'm here! They Toronto Raptors broadcast!
Gotta follow this up with some throwback chevy woods...say Supreme
Classic
yeah💨💨🍷
Take them out shopping and burn the receipt 🔥😩
Why these niggas sleep on my nigga Wale?? It's time to wake up and recognize ..
The good shit
Folarin snapping on everything like he's giving applause at a slam 🔥🔥🔥
I want Wale to be my friend. Like when chilling on his smoke shit I want to be there to receive the positive/negative brain waves. He's deep but not too deep.
Classic. I keep jamming this song.
WALE IS NOT SOMEBODY TO PLAY WITH MAN. PUT SOME RESPECT ON THE NAME MAN.
I hate how much I love wale music. Like the power in words are beautiful but when they are beautifully put together like this man you can’t help but see how awesome of an artist he is
He's so slept on. Dude is straight 🔥
Heavy!...
Dopeness
Wale fucked this jont up😩💪🏽
Meek mill would be nice on the remix
I am glad to see and hear Wale is back. I missed his flow for sure.
Who is the model in this video?
Rick Ross musta gave his lil brotha dis beat
Wale....
