Teachers, parents and politicians
They ridicule my wild ambitions
They say, "settle down son, live decently,
Or you'll rot in jail before your 23!"
They don't know their stuck in the past
Can't stop me now 'cause I'm movin' too fast
Presidents, priests and old ladies too
They'll swear on the Bible
what's best for you
Atom bombs, Vietnam, missiles on the moon
And they wonder why their kids are shootin'
drugs so soon
Young men fightin' for democracy
And sacrificed for mediocrity
I can't stay in one place for too long a time
I get stone bored, I go outta my mind
I'm here and I'm there and doncha know I'm free
Gotta keep movin' baby, you and me
People wakin' up, but they've just begun
To realize what needs to be done
But as for me I keep movin' on
The future's now, yesterday is gone
I never let nobody tell me what to do
And no matter what I'm gonna see things through
When it happened
something snapped inside
made me want to hide
all alone on my own
all alone on my own
I stood up on the stand
with my eyes shut tight
didn´t want to see anbody
feeling happy
having a good time, now hey

Sittin' in the classroom
Feel your heart goin' boom
You start to get the feelin'
And your head begins to reelin'
And you can't hear what the teachers say
Because the news is going down
About the rock and roll dance in town
And you know I just gotta hear that band play
Tonight, tonight, tonight
Oh tonight
Well, Tuesday got the letter
The Army thinks I better
Get myself down there right away
It's not that I'm lazy, I'm just too crazy
To goin' doin' things that way
Because the kids will be in town

I wanna do things the natural way
Tonight, tonight, tonight

You gotta get down in the USA tonight
Ok, kids, it's rockin' time!
Every day you can hear 'em say
You gotta get down in the USA tonight
Sun starts goin' down, I call my girl up on the phone
I said I'll pick you up at eight, at last we'll be alone
I hop in my machine, you know I gotta make the scene
Dancin' through the crowd, say the people goin' wild
When the bands really rockin'. there's just no stoppin'
My girl begins to twirl, the room begins to whirl
It's outta this world, it's outta this world
Tonight, tonight, tonight
Oh tonight
Hey now everybody I gotta get movin'
I gotta muscle me up some action
I take a laser beam
And I use it like a stone axe, baby

And blast it out my thorax, hey, hey
Call me animal, that's my name
Call me animal, I'm not ashamed
Call me animal, this is your hour
Call me animal, you've got the power

Well, just because it's got a good beat, hey, hey

Call me animal, I'm not ashamed
Call me animal, this is your hour
Call me animal, you've got the power

Sixty nine America in terminal stasis
The air's so thick it's like drowning in molasses
I'm sick and tired of paying these dues
And i'm finally getting hip to the American ruse
I learned to say the pledge of allegiance
Before they beat me bloody down at the station
They haven't got a word out of me since
I got a billion years probation
Sixty nine America in terminal stasis
The air's so thick it's like drowning in molasses
I'm sick and tired of paying these dues
And i'm sick to my guts of the American ruse
Phony stars, oh no! crummy cars, oh no!
Cheap guitars, oh no! Joe's primitive bar... nah!
Rock'em back, Sonic !
The way they pull you over it's suspicious
Yeah, for something that just ain't your fault
If you complain they're gonna get vicious
Kick in the teeth and charge you with assault
Yeah, but i can see the chickens coming home to roost
Young people everywhere are gonna cook their goose
Lots of kids are working to get rid of these blues
cause everybody's sick of the American ruse

Ya know, the Motor City is burning babe,
there ain't a thing in the world that they can do.
Ya know, the Motor City is burning people,
there ain't a thing that white society can do.
Ma home town burning down to the ground,
worser than Vietnam.
Let me tell you how it started now ...
it started on 12th & Clairmount that morning.
It made the pig cops all jump & shout,
Ah said, it started on 12th & Clairmount that morning,
It made the pigs in the street freak out.
The fire wagons kept comin', baby,
but the black Panther snipers wouldn't let them put it out, wouldn't let them put it out, wouldn't let them put it out.
Guitar solo "get it on ... "
Well, there were fire bombs bursting all around, people, Ya know there were soldiers standing everywhere.
I said there was fire bombs bursting all around me, baby, Ya know there was National Guard everywhere.
Ah can hear my people screaming.
Sirens fill the air, fill the air, fill the air.

Your mama papa don't know what the trouble is . ..
you see, they don't know what it's all about.
Ah said, your mama papa don't know what the trouble is, baby, they just can't see what it's all about.
Read the news, read the newspapers, baby?
You just get out there in the street and check it out!
Guitar solo
Ah said, the Motor City is burning, people,
I ain't hanging round to fight it out.
Ah said, the Motor City is burning, people,
just not hang around to fight it out.
Well, I'm taking my wife and my people and ???
Well, just before I go, baby, ???? ,
firemans on the street, people all around,
Now, I guess it's true,
I'd just like to strike a match for freedom myself,
I may be a white boy, but I can be bad, too.
Yes, it's true now, yes, it's true now.

We just touched ground on an international runway
Jet propelled back home from overseas to the USA
New York, Los Angeles, oh how I yearned for you
Detroit, Chicago, Chattanooga, Baton Rouge
Let alone just to be back in Chuck Berry's old Saint Lou (Let me hear it once more!)

Did I miss the skyscrapers, did I miss the long freeway
From the coast of California to the shores of the Delaware Bay ?
Well, you can bet your life I did 'til I got back in the USA

Lookin' hard for a drive-in, searchin' for a corner café
Where hamburgers sizzle on an open grill, night and day
Yes, and a jukebox jumpin' with 'Welcome back in the USA'
I'm so glad I'm livin' in the USA
I'm so glad I'm livin' in the USA
Anything you want, they got it right here in the USA

Back in Lincoln park where I was mostly raised
Hanging around town where I got totally crazed
Surrounded by bitches who just wouldn't give it in
Who thought that getting down was an unnatural sin
I'd whisper, "Baby, baby, help me, feel like I'm gonna bust
I need a healthy outlet for my teenage lust"
Yes, I do now baby
Won't my teenage lust go someday?
Moved into the city to improve my chances
I chased them at the bars and grabbed them at the dances
They'd huggy, snuggle, kissy but they'd never go all the way
They'd cringe like in terror when they hear me say
"Baby, baby, help, you really, really must
I need a healthy outlet for my teenage lust"
Yes, I do now, baby
My teenage lust won't make away much longer
I really need release
It means so much to me
How can a young Midwestern boy
Live in such misery, misery, misery, oh?
Then one day I had one perfect plan
I shake my ass and scream in a rock 'n' roll band
From now on there'll be no compromising
Rock 'n' roll music is the best advertising
"Baby, I can help, you know I got the guts
I'll be your healthy outlet for your teenage lust"
Come on, now
Come on, now
Come on darling, come on baby
This teenage lust is driving me crazy
I gonna have it baby, I can't do without
When I get the feeling, I got to work it out
I ain't got no time for messing around
So come on girl, you've got to get down
Come on darling, come on baby
A punch to get it, tryin' to get it
To do what I wanted to do
I cried and screamed when I saw my dream
It was dancin' all around the room
Follow, baby, and save my soul
I just couldn't wait for you
Energy, energy, greatest drink
And I knew what I had to do
Baby, baby, that's no lie
Baby, baby, don't ask me why
Take it, break it, break it up
Now glue it back together again
I'm tryin' to drive you, tyin' it off
Then kick it back down the bend
[Incomprehensible] tryin' to delude me
Trying to give it all you can
Swingin', squealin', brushin' up
Now bring it all home to bed
Baby, baby, that's no lie
Sit on my face when you waste my time
Well, I saw you, talkin' on
Riding on the crest of a wave
How appallin', the music surrounds you
Sounding right in your way
Oh baby, off we go
Headin' for a brand new place
The song's been sung, the deed's been done
Staring you right in the face
Baby, baby, watch your step
Rama lama fa fa fa
After some good tokes and a six pack
We can sock 'em out for you till you're flat on your back
You know I got to keep it up 'cause I'm a natural man
I'm a born hell raiser and I don't give a damn
I'm the man for you baby
Yes I am for you baby
Say I'm the man for you baby
Yes I am for you baby, I'm the man for you
Yes I'm a baby, I'm not here
'Cause I'm only there
Workin' here before your momma soakin' wet
You think you're satisfied you ain't seen nothing yet
I said "A wham bam thank you ma'am
I'm a born hell raiser and I don't give a damn"
I'm the man for you baby
Yes I am for you baby
Say I'm the man for you baby

You can lay it down on me, baby, any old time

I'm the man for you baby
Yes I am for you baby
Say I'm the man for you baby

Ya know, the Motor City is burning, babe
There ain't a thing in the world they can do
Ya know, the Motor City is burning people
There ain't a thing that white society can do
Ma home town burning down to the ground
Worser than Vietnam
Let me tell you how it started now
It started on 12th Clair Mount that morning
It made the, the pig cops all jump and shout
I said, it started on 12th Clair Mount that morning
It made the, the pigs in the street go freak out
The fire wagons kept comin', baby
But the Black Panther Snipers wouldn't let them put it out
Wouldn't let them put it out, wouldn't let them put it out
Get it on
Well, there were fire bombs bursting all around the people
Ya know there was soldiers standing everywhere
I said there was fire bombs bursting all around me, baby
Ya know there was National Guard everywhere
I can hear my people screaming
Sirens fill the air, fill the air, fill the air
Your mama, papa don't know what the trouble is
You see, they don't know what it's all about
I said, your mama, papa don't know what the trouble is, baby
They just can't see what it's all about
I get the news, read the newspapers, baby, baby?
You just get out there in the street and check it out
I said, the Motor City is burning, people
I ain't hanging 'round to fight it out
I said, the Motor City is burning, people
Just not hang around to fight it out
Well, I'm taking my wife and my people and they're on TV
Well, just before I go, baby, [Incomprehensible]
Fireman's on the street, people all around
Now, I guess it's true
I'd just like to strike a match for freedom myself
I may be a white boy, but I can be bad, too
Yes, it's true now, yes, it's true now
Oh now, yeah, yeah
Hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah
I see you lyin' here
You're so close, you're so near
Causing sensations rollin' through me
Comes on strong, feels just like a spell
Sensations rollin', turnin' from me to you
Causing this aura of heat to swirl
Your lips, your undulating hips
Squeeze me, oh so tight
Fulfill me through the night
Causing sensations rollin' through me
Comes on strong, feels just like a spell
Sensations rollin', turnin' from me to you
Causing this aura of heat to swirl
Yeah
(Comes on strong)
Yeah baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
(Comes on strong)
Don't you know my blood is raging?
(Comes on strong)
Darling, darling, darling, darling
(Comes on strong)
I'm tired of all my failings
Bring me close and burn, burn, burn
Heat gives way to sweat
My body's soaking wet
We slide and slip from hip to lip
Causing sensations rollin' through me
Comes on strong, feels just like a spell
Sensations rollin', turnin' from me to you
Causing this aura of heat to swirl
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh baby, baby, you'll always make me hot
Come on and gimme all you've got
Yeah, yeah, yeah I, yeah, yeah
This is a man's world
This is a man's world
But it would be nothing
Nothing without a woman to care
You see man made the cars
To take us over the world
Man made the train
To carry the heavy load
Man made the electro lights
To take us out of the dark
Man made the bullet for the war
Like Noah made the ark
This is a man's man's, man's world
But it would be nothing
Nothing without a woman to care
Man thinks of our little baby girls And the baby boys
Man make them happy 'Cause man makes them toys
And aher man make everything, everything he can
You know that man makes money to buy from other man
This is a man's world
But it would be nothing, nothing
Not one little thing
Without a woman to care
He's lost in the wilderness
He's lost in the bitterness
Come on
The kids want a little action
The kids want a little fun
The kids all have to get their kicks
Before the evening's done
'Cause they're goin' to
(High school)
Rah, rah, rah
(High school)
Sis, boom, bah
(High school)
Hey, hey, hey
You better let them have their way
They only wanna shake it up, baby
Dance to the rockin' bands
They only want a little excitement
They like to get a little outta hand
'Cause they're goin' to
(High school)
Rah, rah, rah
(High school)
Sis, boom, bah
(High school)
Hey, hey, hey
You better let them have their way
The kids know what the deal is

Teachers, parents and politicians
They ridicule my wild ambitions
They say, "Settle down son, live decently
Or you'll rot in jail before your twenty-three"
They don't know their stuck in the past
Can't stop me now 'cause I'm movin' too fast
Presidents, priests and old ladies too
They'll swear on the Bible, what's best for you
Atom bombs, Vietnam, missiles on the moon
And they wonder why their kids are shootin' drugs so soon
Young men fight for democracy
And sacrificed for mediocrity
I can't stay in one place for too long a time
I get stone bored, I go outta my mind
I'm here and I'm there, don't you know I'm free?
Gotta keep movin' baby, you and me, hey
I can't stay in one place for too long a time
I get stone bored, I go outta my mind
I'm here and I'm there, don't you know I'm free?
Gotta keep movin' baby, you and me
People wakin' up but they've just begun
To realize what needs to be done
As for me I keep movin' on
The future's now, yesterday is gone
I never let nobody tell me what to do
No matter what I'm gonna see it through
Screechin' useless martyrs hangin naked upon the cross They would have you believe the lie they shriek that all is lost Forget their logical desperation, utilize your imagination The future's here right now if you're willing to pay the cost The power crazy leaders who control your very fate They would twist your will, steal your life and sell your soul away If you're drifting or wandering lost, you're the perfect target for the double cross Freedom's yours right now, if you rule your own destiny Here he comes, cosmopolitan ennemy Here they come, interstellar diplomats Some say the truth was meant to be hidden Others maintain nothing is forbidden The key to the mystery And our _ mind explodes in a post atomic dawn The future breaks like a tidal wave, engulfing everyone Confusion and chaos, trauma of birth A strange new day for the people of the Earth Traditions, burned away by the rising sun

They told you in school about freedom
But when you try to be free they never let you
They said, "It's easy, nothing to it"
And now the army's out to get you
Sixty nine America in terminal stasis
The air's so thick it's like drowning in molasses
I'm sick and tired of paying these dues
And I'm finally getting hip to the American ruse
I learned to say the pledge of allegiance
Before they beat me bloody down at the station
They haven't got a word out of me since
I got a billion years probation
Sixty nine America in terminal stasis
The air's so thick it's like drowning in molasses
I'm sick and tired of paying these dues
And I'm sick to my guts of the American ruse
Phony stars, oh no! Crummy cars, oh no!
Cheap guitars, oh no! Joe's primitive bar, nah!
Rock 'em back, Sonic!
The way they pull you over it's suspicious
Yeah, for something that just ain't your fault
If you complain they're gonna get vicious
Kick in the teeth and charge you with assault
Yeah, but I can see the chickens coming home to roost
Young people everywhere are gonna cook their goose
Lots of kids are working to get rid of these blues
'Cause everybody's sick of the American ruse
Well well well , take a look around!
Well well well , take a look around!
Well well well , take a look around!
Well well well , take a look around!
Put it in first and then I punch it, listen to the engine roar
Lay a patch of rubber for a block and half
When I push it on down to the floor
Do I roll? Well I guess, Thunder Express
I've got a Ls7-454, with an isky cam
I've got a voodoo head on a swifter shifter, pop the clutch, wham
Do I roll? Well I guess, Thunder Express
Run it home boy
Pull up beside a bad Mustanger, uh uh, no race, no
I pull up beside a bad Mustang
I got nothin' to fear, I can whack
My magic twanger
AMX and GTO and Cougar ain't touched me yet
Duster 6-pack, Spring Little Cobra, Barracuda, no sweat
Ain't nothin' outrun my rock and roll Chevy Corvette
Bring it home Wayne
I'm gone in a second when I put my foot down on the accelerator
I'm gone in a second when I put my foot down on the accelerator
I said, "Bye bye Tah' Gay Paree, see ya later alligator"
I'm talkin' 'bout Thunder, Thunder Express
I'm talkin' 'bout Thunder, Thunder Express
I said, "I'm talkin' 'bout Thunder, Thunder Express"
I'm talkin' 'bout Thunder, Thunder Express
Do I roll well I guess, Thunder Express

The partisans not the artisans
Are doing their dirty show
But i ripped my pants
Doing some dance
That i learned in France
And they think there ain't
nothin' to know
Used, abused
Locked up, beaten and fined
But i got free
Copped a plea
And i can see
That there ain't no freedom
bell gonna chime
This time
Truth and love
are my law and worship
Form and conscience
my manifestation and guide
Nature and peace are
my shelter and companion
Order is my attitude
Beauty and perfection
Are my attack
False faces
Fast company
A night of thrills
With no jealousy, no poison
Nobody's tool
Will be a public fool
To manipulate the masses
Who lie and cheat
And eat their meat
And think it's sweet
While the rest all clean their glasses
People talkin 'bout solutions, over and over
'Bout how we need a revolution, over and over
I was talkin' 'bout ecology, over and over
How we'll be saved by technology, over and over
Oh, while the cat next door spends all his time
I'm a think up new antisocial crimes
I said, "No", I said, "Hang on a minute now"
I said, "Let me outta here"
I said, "No, no, no, oh"
People talkin' revolution, over and over
About a mass execution, over and over
Well, I was workin' in a factory, over and over
Just tryin' to make it satisfactory, over and over
But all these inclinations toward manic frustration
I want my vaccination against castration
Vietnam, what a sexy war
Uncle Sam's a pimp, wants us to be whores
I said, "No", I said, "I can't take much more of this
You better let me outta here"
I said, "No, no, no, oh"
Oh you see, I need a release for my frustration
Oh don't you see, I can't hold my aggravation?
Oh no, no, no, no
I see people dyin', over and over
Why don't I sit around cryin'? Over and over
I see people takin', over and over
Why don't I sit around waitin'? Over and over
The cop on the street wants us down on our needs
The President says, "We've got to have peace"
The other cat says, "We need our liberation"
The hippies tellin' us, "We're in the love generation"
I said, "Whoa", I said, "Hang on a minute now
This can't go on much longer"
I said, "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa"
Over and over, over and over
Yeah, I'm gonna kick 'em out!
Well, I feel pretty good and I guess that I could
Get crazy now, baby
'Cause we all gotta [Incomprehensible] of what we gotta do
Gettin' hazy now, baby
I know how you want it, child, hot, quick and tight
The girls can't stand it when you're doin' it right
When I'm up on the stand
I'm [Incomprehensible] to kick out the jams
Yes, kick out the jams
I done kick 'em out!
Yes, I'm a starting to sweat, you know my shirt's all wet
What a feeling!
It's a sound that abounds and resounds
And rebounds off the ceiling
You gotta have it, baby, you can't do without
Oh, when you get that feeling you gotta sock 'em out
Put that [Incomprehensible] in my hands
And let me kick out the jams
Yeah, kick out the jams
I done kick 'em out!
So, you got to give it up, you know you
Can't get enough, Miss Mackenzie
'Cause it gets in your brain, it drives you insane
With a frenzy
The wigglin' guitars, girl, the crash of the drums
Makes me wanna rock until the morning comes
Let me be who I am
I [Incomprehensible] kick out the jams
Yeah, kick out the jams
I done kicked 'em out!
I can't give you more than what I've got
I can't expect to give what I have not
I-I-I can only give ya lovin' 'till the sun goes down
And, until the leaves of summer turn to shades of brown
I try and I try
But baby, you know that I
Can only give you evra'thing
I can't argue with you to understand
Cause afterall, I am just a man
You are on my mind
When stars appear and shadows fall
And when ev'ra little flower close
And no birds call
I try and I try
But baby, you know that I
Can only give you evra'thing
I can't argue with you to understand
Cause afterall, I am just a man
You are on my mind
When stars appear and shadows fall
And when ev'ra little flower close
And no birds call
I try and I try
But baby, you know that I
Can only give you evra'thing
Evra'thing, baby
A little bit of this, a little bit of that
And evra'thing
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Whoa, ooh, ooh
Whoa, ooh, ooh
Oh come on, it's all over, over here
I sat up here in my window lookin' down on the street
A strychnine poison woman, man don't you look so sweet
Well I said come on up and see me sometime
I'm just a drunken sailor but I'm feelin' so fine
I've been out sailin' on the seven seas, baby won't you give it to me? Oh
Baby won't ya drive me mad? Baby don't ya let me feel bad
Baby don't ya leave me alone, baby won't ya carry me home?
Baby won't ya jump and shout? You know what I'm talkin' about
Baby won't ya drive me wild? Baby let me see you smile
Watching you, it's alright now
For now I see all the sickly, salty swingers standin' on a bathroom floor
Slidin' and glidin' as she passed by my window
She was a female mercenary comin' home from war
The ultimate inflection of the word perfection
I thought I'd drop by to say, "Hi"
Sweetly, serenely, she showed me her gun, baby let's go get high, oh
Baby won't ya drive me wild? Baby let me see you smile
Baby won't ya please come here? Baby don't ya have no fear
Baby won't ya scratch my back? Baby don't ya leave me mad
Baby won't ya drive me mad? Baby don't ya let me be mad
Come on, get down
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah, well, come on now
I sat down to the matters at hand, tryin' to find a way to beat the heat
Outside my window was a bunch of tipsy gypsys
Dancin' up and down the street
The lovely senorita took me by my hand
She said, "Oh, baby won't you be my man?"
I'll get yours and you'll get mine, baby let's have a good time
Baby won't ya drive me mad? Baby don't ya let me feel bad
Baby don't ya leave me alone, baby won't ya carry me home?
Baby won't ya jump and shout? You know what I'm talking about
Baby won't ya drive me wild? Baby let me see you smile
Baby won't ya please come here? Baby don't ya have no fear
Baby let me hold your hand, baby let me be your man
Baby won't ya scratch my back? Baby don't ya leave me mad
Baby won't you [Incomprehensible], baby won't you [Incomprehensible]
Baby won't ya drive me mad? Baby don't ya let me feel bad
Baby don't ya leave me alone, baby won't ya carry me home?
Baby won't ya jump and shout? You know what I'm talkin' about

[Verse 1:]
Hold up, it's a Westcoast stick up
Sly Tendancies is in with me, I'm tryna get my rich up
Talkin' 'bout raisin' Richie dawg, I'm tryna get my Rich up
Good for you? Man I'll give you life like an elixir
He sick, huh? (Oh yes, it's a O.F. stick up, Mike
Tell this bitch to put the donuts in the bag quicker, right
Shit I strike, niggas bite, bitches wife, hit up Christ
It's a crisis, niggas hands up like it's a heist, Mike get 'em)
Hold up, who'd you say the winner was?
I bet I'll finish quick and eat you faster than your dinner cause
They ask why they fly and crash, I say you gotta land slow
I'm Cancer yo, but healthy though, raps new Rambo
[Hook:]
It's a stick up, it's a stick up
Put your hands in the air, it's a stick up
[Verse 2:]
Repeat, it's a stick up, out for greens, to get my Grinch up
Listen bitch, get your kid and get down or get clipped up
(You hatin'? Just stop, we gon' blow, just watch
Think not? Grind time, take your fuckin' wristwatch)
All their fuckin' vCards, just to prove that we hard
Get it? We hard, he bombards three broads
Then dip out on another mish them niggas on that other shit
Word to mother bitch, we hot as Southern summers is
(I'm smooth like Travolta, say they want a face off?
I take off, I'm waitin' for the pay-off, how that go
I rap slow but factual, don't get mad
I'm rad fuckin' awesome, a pimp like Chad swag
High like kites, Cliche, where we stay
There's no such thing as replays, you live once
I just dump, like trash trucks, blast up, no blast off)
Bust the chops, then a nut, then adjust the cock, get your ass off
[Hook:]
It's a stick up, it's a stick up
Put your hands in the air, it's a stick up
[Verse 3:]
Stepped in the door wavin' the 44
And shot it at three whores, they wouldn't get on the floor
Now they petrified, I'm comin' for everythin' you got
Know you got a lot, why you think I'm runnin' up in your spot
Said I don't play, bet I shoot this white girl and get away
Like O.J., this the life I live I'm talkin' everyday
Said I bust again, Sly said that I shouldn't
Said I should then a nigga looked at me like I wouldn't
So I let one off, shattered glass, went through his ass, he extra soft
And now I'm on a rampage, my partner grabbed the 12 gauge
And threw it to me, started blastin', let three off, let four off
Then I aimed at a nigga who wouldn't take off his jewelry
Like you brave 'til you lose consciousness
But you dumb for fuckin' with niggas with guns and shit
They tried to calm me down, but I'm ready to leave a nigga red
Taco stepped in the way and I shot him in his leg, fuck!
[Feat. Wolf Haley a.k.a. Tyler, The Creator]
[Verse 1: Mike G]
I could spend my whole life tryna get cash
And work hard then I pass like Steve Nash
Breath fast, I ain't tryna hyperventilate
Forgive me Lord, it feels like I commit a sin a day
Then I wait for them days to turn good again
And get the cake, then I'll tell them that's the winners pay
To win today would just seem like a lavish dream
Know what they mean, everything ain't what it seems
The angels sing and I feel like that's my roll call
And I came with Left Brain, that's my road dawg
Switch lanes? Nah homie I'm a road hog
Brain to the pave look my mind on the road dawg
Said I'm just tryna do this quick like make haste
Don't take more than I can get to prevent waste
My music is like confetti rain when you win a race
And you'll probably lose your mind tryna save face
Scarface, say I got that Montana flow
They know I'm tryna get that Montana dough
Where we go, tell the truth I could never know
I'm just tryna push a Porsche, that's white like Montana snow
And honestly, just for wings I would give it up
So if it's true '12 couldn't come fast enough
And when it comes I just hope I'm on my way above
The say they're heartless, but I feel them when they show me love
[Verse 2: Tyler]
I'm sitting on this couch, wrist bloody
The therapist nicknamed me "Kid Cutty", I killed my fifth buddy
The fourth one, I like to kick around
Ride him all around, when he hits the ground
The third one is mixed, white and black
Minor, flat, major, act like a pitch with a flanger
The second one's a stranger, but I knew her all my life
Since I was born, the other half said fuck it like I was porn
And the last one, he's in the mirror
With a gun, wish I could see him clearer
But I can't cause my eyes are red, now he's dead
[Verse 3: Mike G]
Aye, hold your head homie, look
I'm a live long through these songs
As long as they're on, I'm on when I'm gone
That's why I rhyme like a poet from a prior century
And I don't wanna be a human, treat me like an entity
I know they fiend for my 8's like I'm a fucking Laker
Tryna find a Secret Garden just like Tyler the Creator
Damn, I'm just waiting for my life to begin
And I can't breath when I'm high cause the airs too thin
I'll let out a couple sighs, tell them exhale
They know they shouldn't touch me like the third rail
Shit, I'm living in Hell, the devil should be scared of me
[Verse 1:]
I'll just take this time to say, this goes to the girls
That wouldn't give me the time of day, now they're tryna see this star
When he's at his highest, but I'm different, midnight is when I shine
My brightest, so the difference is, if you're tryna see me then you
Better get your timin' right, we observe differently
Ain't got the same eyesight, only thing she sees is that my green
Goin' shine bright, she just wants the limelight
Yeah the type that I get every time I rhyme, right?
You're gon' regret it lookin' back like hindsight
You change clothes so much you forgot who you are, right?
You're gon' feel bad every time I'm here
And hang your head in shame ever time I'm near, yeah
You're gon' wanna clench your fist I swear
Because you ain't seein' nothin' like this
I swear we could have made it, no if's, no maybe's
You was actin' shady, and they're sayin' that I'm crazy?
[Hook:]
They're sayin' that I'm crazy, they tell me that I'm crazy
They're sayin' that I'm crazy, they're sayin' that I'm crazy
(Cause I'm tryna get my money right) I guess I must be crazy
(Cause I be on the grind at night) I guess I must be crazy
(Cause I'm high, and this is my first flight) I guess I must be crazy
(Couldn't tell you what my life's like) I guess I must be crazy
[Verse 2:]
I was never a millionaire, but niggas never cared
What, so I never shared when they was down on their luck
Because I ain't get no handouts, I ain't run my damn mouth
This is where we move from fittin' in to standin' out
Because my team Odd so you don't want no problems
And even if you do then I guess we gotta solve them
No I never gave a fuck, no you can't depend on luck
And know that when you're feelin' down there's nowhere to go but up
Shucks, I'm losin' my mind can't you tell?
And I'm done messin' with y'all if I can tell that you ain't real
Nothin' to do but write them rhymes, came with thousands like it's wholesale
They wasn't helpin' I lost about a thousand in them hotels
So hell, I'll stack about a mil before I give
And I'm tired of dealin' with life but I get it how I live
This is the letter that was written to you, from me
Dreams of Chanel, Robyn, and Christine
Feel like anything I achieve would be more than I receive
They don't teach the fabric of life, how you fold at the seams
Hustle to get everything by any and all means
Energy only exists if enthusiasm's fed
They love you the most when they can use you to get ahead
Who am I to preach lessons? Now they second guess 'em
When they see who spits the best they shouldn't question my profession
Teach you I'm the professor
Don't question the method is what
Earl said to me when I dropped Mike Check
And that made me a soldier
So I'm stepping till my death in California's hottest desert
Bape camo on my weapon
Fuck ammo; I spit bullets and bars that nobody can handle
Anything you heard before this was a sample
And I reload quicker than the others
With songs, verses, and covers so I do this in my slumber
We are a bunch of others, Wolf Gang hunters
Don't take from us cause we find niggas like four brothers
I figured I would be what the game was missing
Went from Call of Duty missions to the center of attention
The others took their careers and ran them to the ground
So doubters should always be the first people you let down
Think it's easy, might be with advice but naw
Mike G cite me as philosopher, or Moracular
Tryna get my pockets full, remind me of Carrie how we laugh at ya'll
It's me and my team back says my name
Bitches running full court if the like to play games
Appreciate my patience eyes where I'm aiming
Love notes to redheads thank you letters to Damien
I remember conversations like what if we don't make it?
Now we travel different countries feeling greater than the lakes
It doesn't matter what they rate us and strive off hate
I learned to love it, it seems like I get so much of it
Any time spent waiting is time spent wasted
Giving in is complicated I hardly understand basic
A sinner's mind is a sanctum, I'm essential to your mental
Gun to the game's temple, then I drove it like a rental
Why do I never complain about how they never mention me
When I spit degrees over any simplistic symphony
More complex than architects with any amount of layers
Life's a video game I'm controlled by the best player
That's why it's fuck the rest unless they treat us with respect
All black with blank checks I am racer X
Not the one to lose, failure is always an option
Just never the one I choose
Friends will watch you go down easier than the bitches you kiss...
That's why I say fuck it, life's lame
And there's no moment's more important than the ones that you miss
I hope this makes any sense...
