These are things I see when flipping through my phone
Am I the same man as the pictures in my home
Get crucified by some, others put me on the throne
Am I just some voice that you hearing on a song?
That white boy ain't the best at rap 'cause he ain't black (he ain't black)
They say that we take from them and never gave back (never gave back)
They keep talking shit, cultural appropriation
I'm white so I'm racist by association
Shit weighs heavy, I guess words can be deadly (deadly)
I grew up watching Belly, listening to Makaveli (Makaveli)
We ain't cut the same, I'm vintage, there ain't shit to tell me
How you talking gangster shit?
You never had cellie
You a victim, I'm a villain, did my bit, I was in prison
Just a kid up, I grew up, you a bitch, you move off of your feelings (off of your feelings)
Feelings, off this music I make millions
I'm the best at what I do, I'm pretty sure I hit the ceiling
I wanna thank the white rappers for making us a gimmick
Like you ain't dope if you don't rap a thousand words a minute
Shit's different, (shit's different) I guess lyrics get neglected
Gotta dance for the black man, rap fast to get respected (get respected)

You weren't there with me when I was sleeping on the floor
I was dirt-poor, caught my first case in '04 (04)
Fast forward, I'm a legend while I'm living
My fans fuck with me 'cause I can't stand a fucking liberal
You think we free?
That's a lie, we ain't freed the slaves yet
Every black man with money got a chain on his neck
Every time I get paid, they take money from my check
They don't give it to vets, just kids wih student debt (student debt)
I'm the one that had the balls to say it first
You saw that it worked and started drawing up a verse (drawing up a verse)
How you gonna steal from me and make it sound worse? (worse)
How you gonna hear me rapping and say I sound like
Th-th-These are things I think about when flipping through my phone
Just off a call with Tom, he said "leave that shit alone" (leave that shit alone)
I focus on the things from people I don't even know
I walk alone so much I think I lost part of my soul (part of my soul)
