The Alchemist. Lyrics

[Verse 1: Lil Yachty]
No need to brag, but I knew that I was built for this
I know now that most men would kill for this
Seamlessly, I walk around infamous
Probably 'cause I am the alchemist
Learned to love, I'm not like the tin man
I am Sensei Jones with a vengeance
Reekin', reekin', ain't slept since last weekend
I don't think you practice what you preachin'
Sucker

[Interlude: Fousheé]
It feels good
Don't mean no harm, this for shits and giggles
My taxes in on time
Alright, alright (On time), alright, alright, ah, ah
I'm living a good life
We living a good life

[Verse 2: Lil Yachty]
Bitch, we go super crazy for the backend
He know now that I give a back-hand
Back out on a boat, catch a spray tan
Ayy, man, off the drugs in the deep end (Tweak, tweak)
Ah, fuck (Tweak, tweak, tweak, tweak)
Papa made a young pimp, I'm outside
Southside, tote a shank, I'ma up rank
Lemonade pink seats in a fish tank
[Outro: Fousheé]
Up on my cloud
My feet don't touch the ground
Don't try to shoot me down
Only a human
It's my first go 'round in this thing

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 [?]
