Look
I got a question
When the hell y'all gonna get the message
The grind comes cheap, but the fame is sold separate
I'm set on un-seating these lames, it's an investment
And I rap like, well, you're shit's no longer impressive
Welcome to the next wave, I am your Sensei
The new wave is full of Lil Tay's, I'm like Dikembe
Don't care how many times you've been played – y'all are too fake
A toupee to these long locks, I'm on a crusade
A rap god; Y'all ain't figured me out
My shit is padlocked, I see you spin it around
A bunch of have-nots; get my shit out your mouth
And try harder, don't start another minute from now
Pick up the sound from these Lil' Shits, and kick it around
To be honest I don't see where the competition is now
Watching all my heroes stoop until their dick's in the ground
I'm like, "oh, sh*t, damn... is he kidding around?", uh
And I ain't even gotta hide from that
Stand tall when you see me show up
And I can see you with your eyes low now
I can tell when you're showing no love
Are you the type that's gonna play my song
Downtown with the windows up
Hey you ain't even gotta hide from that
Come on in, you can put your coat up
And you can stay for a while
Dearly departed
I pray for your souls, don't get me started
To all the love lost, missed shots, and broken hearted
To all the time wasted on chasing a different target
Than the one your heart is screaming aloud, and disregard it
Moment of silence for your good intentions
And pour one out for all the knowledge that you could've mentioned
See all the politicians all sittin' on wooden fences
Built on picket lines, in a nation that's left defenseless
Lord, metaphors for the common and the warlords
I'm just tryina get you smiling out of four chords
I'm just tryina get from Ramen to a four door
Got me up and cookin' like George Fore – be forewarned
I might be your favorite student with the hot temper
Your blue collar superhero, or your bartender
Your average college grad, stuck up in the wrong sector
Your John Denver-looking rapper, putting on Denver
And I ain't even gotta hide from that
Stand tall when you see me show up
And I can see you with your eyes low now
I can tell when you're showing no love
Are you the type that's gonna play my song
Downtown with the windows up
Hey you ain't even gotta hide from that
Come on in, you can put your coat up
And you can stay for a while
