Radio Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Rack 'em up and stack 'em, stack 'em while I got 'em
Knock 'em back and drag 'em; look at me, I stole 'em
(Look at me, I stole 'em, look at me, I stole 'em)
(Look at me, I stole 'em, look at me, I stole 'em)
Body made of platinum, rope full let me at 'em
Cause I'm on top, oh, buffalo stancin'
(Body made of platinum, body made of platinum)
(Body made of platinum, buffalo stancin')

[Pre-Chorus]
I remember the time, remember the time
Pirate on the waves from the get go
But I put in the time, I put in the time
I never was afraid, never let go
I remember the time, remember the time
Pirate on the waves from the get go
But I put in the time, I put in the time
I never was afraid, never let go

[Chorus]
I'ma run up on the radio
Ambush the scene, oh, and you 'bout to know
I'ma run up on the radio
Ambush the scene, oh, and you 'bout to know
[Verse 2]
Ain't no carbon copy, take a picture of it
Put it on the big screen, I don't give a...
(Take a picture of it, take a picture of it)
(Take a picture of it, take a picture of it)
I say what I want to, say what I mean
Living in your mind now, I'm living in your dream
(Living in your mind now, I'm living in your dream)
(Living in your mind now, I'm living in your dream)


[Pre-Chorus]
I remember the time, remember the time
Pirate on the waves from the get go
But I put in the time, I put in the time
I never was afraid, never let go
I remember the time, remember the time
Pirate on the waves from the get go
But I put in the time, I put in the time
I never was afraid, never let go

[Chorus]
I'ma run up on the radio
Ambush the scene, oh, and you 'bout to know
I'ma run up on the radio
Ambush the scene, oh, and you 'bout to know
[Bridge]
Better dial up the static
If you want, I'm looking at it
Be my number one fanatic
While I keep making classics
Better dial up the static
I'm a mother wreaking havoc
Big drippy I'm a grab it
Zooming through a sea plastic

[Chorus]
I'ma run up on the radio
Ambush the scene, oh, and you 'bout to know
I'ma run up on the radio
Ambush the scene, oh, and you 'bout to know

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
