Look, yeah I sampled myself
I've always had trouble reachin' and askin' for help
'Cause when you do it goons'll keep it in their ledger
And pester you when you make it and blame you for not sharin' the wealth
But the legacy will tamper the health
I may just settle for a feature on a verse on occasion
'Til I see you all fail to do it first
Like Koreans playin' basketball I take you all to church
Y'all ain't really special you know everybody works
I want people hearin' flannel and they know it's not a shirt
If they tellin' me I should expect the worst
Imma rewrite the book like Book rewrote the Kardashian curse
No more doubts undercover like
I cannot be a good son, brother, loving significant other
Energy only in summer subsequent months, I'd be retreating and runnin' for cover
The world could not see the real me
Can sympathize but you can't feel me
The biggest weakness is thinkin' you're so unique
And to act on every feeling that crosses your path
I am more focused on me and stayin' on top of the math
Blessed with the perfect combination of the cries and the laughs
Like the right amount of things have gone wrong in my past, look
And if you think you know my path
Imma rewrite the movie like it was made with an all white cast
And my life threw a code and I cracked it in the morning
But night time is when the storm hits
I needed relief back then
To get me on my feet once again
And I'm happy that it switched up like this
And I may have to leave you right quick, right quick
But we gon' make it
Yeah we gon' make it
But sometimes aok ain't good enough I need to blow you all away how else I survive
A Peter Parker type of regular guy
Difference in disposition when I'm pennin' hits versus performing them live
Enough to question if I'm writin' down lies
Fabricated advice, fake positive vibes, born from exasperation
Lines I threw resulting in snake eyes
My pulse is gettin' erratic
This multi-platinum pipe dream makes my
Eyes well up but it will take time
(So hey, how's the music goin)
Well if it had gone that well,I wouldn't be going to school
Instead I'd be makin' the news
(So what you doin')
Well they ball in the Pac 12
So that's what's I'm going to do
Stories of black pens and fallin' in black Benzes
Blazin' a road to my youth
Delorean makin' me feel my core again
But know my patience is top 10
I had to be older than you yeah
That's what a soldier would do
So to every leading moment I'm proposing a toast
I inspired a lot of people disappointed my folks
Still can't believe that y'all would sing along to shit that I wrote
Well never mind I guess I'm really that dope, but look you know what I mean
The whole music thing, Dot's studio, Majorstage shows, Zach videos
Monday night at Piano's up on Lower East
Whole 9, Asian Glow, tell me when the next FLANNEL DAY is gonna be
