(un)Friendly Fire - ft. Curse Joy

[Intro] Yeah... This one's family business. Rocket business. See, I don't hate y'all. Hate requires respect. King Koff. [Verse 1] I hear "Prepare for Trouble" and I roll my damn eyes, Whole region know the motto, whole region know the lies. Y'all the face of Team Rocket? That's a tragedy, fam, I'm out here moving product, you getting folded by a ham. Every week same story, same balloon, same crash, Same electric rat cooking y'all like trash. Boss built an empire, y'all built a blooper reel, I'm trying to stack millions, y'all trying to steal a meal. Jessie swear she a star, James swear he a don, Both got twenty years experience and still getting sonned. Y'all got matching uniforms and a rehearsed routine, I got cities getting nervous every time I'm seen. Meowth doing all the work, let's keep it real for a sec, That cat got more successful operations than the set. [Hook] Wannabes. That's all I see. Rocket by the patch, Not Rocket by the creed. Wannabes. Living in a dream. Only reason I don't smoke 'em Is they repping my team. Wannabes. Making us look weak. Every time they hit the field It's another bad week. Wannabes. Y'all lucky that you're Rocket. Anybody else acting like that? I'd drop 'em from the roster. [Verse 2] Jessie got ambition, I'll give her that much, Problem is her plans got the survival rate of one. Every scheme overcooked, every heist overplanned, By the time she finish talking, the target already ran. James too nice, that's the issue right there, Making friends with the Pokémon you're supposed to snare. Petting wild monsters, giving speeches and hugs, I'm sitting here wondering if he's actually a grunt. Y'all call it persistence. I call it insanity. Definition of failure wrapped in Rocket vanity. Every region got legends. Every crew got stars. And somehow y'all became famous For getting launched into Mars. I move silent. Y'all announce every crime. I make money. Y'all make catchphrases rhyme. Difference between us? I get results when I move. Y'all get electrocuted just for entering the room. [Hook] Wannabes. That's all I see. Rocket by the patch, Not Rocket by the creed. Wannabes. Living in a dream. Only reason I don't smoke 'em Is they repping my team. Wannabes. Making us look weak. Every time they hit the field It's another bad week. Wannabes. Y'all lucky that you're Rocket. Anybody else acting like that? I'd drop 'em from the roster. [Bridge] See... The crazy part? They actually got talent. But every time success gets close... They trip over themselves. It's impressive. In the worst possible way. [Verse 3] I ain't saying leave Rocket. I ain't saying quit. I'm saying maybe stop getting bodied by a kid. Twenty-five years running and the scoreboard brutal, Calling yourselves villains while your record stay neutral. Giovanni built kingdoms. I build fear in the streets. Y'all build giant robots Just to hand out defeats. Every mission turns comedy. Every plan turns dust. If y'all didn't wear the R, Nobody would trust. But here's the twist: When the smoke clear out, And the jokes die down, Y'all still show up. Still take the mission. Still wear the uniform. That's the only reason You don't get the full venom. Cause Rocket's Rocket. And family gets one pass. Just one. [Final Hook] Wannabes. That's all I see. Rocket by the patch, Not Rocket by the creed. Wannabes. Living in a dream. Only reason I don't smoke 'em Is they repping my team. Wannabes. Making us look weak. Every time they hit the field It's another bad week. Wannabes. Y'all lucky that you're Rocket. Anybody else acting like that? I'd drop 'em from the roster. [Outro] Jessie. James. Meowth. Do better. Or at least stop losing to children. King Koff.
