lyrics

here’s sumn for free
better bite your tongue
if you come for me
i can get your number
while i slumber sleeping comfortably
dig deep
sneak a peek what’s underneath
sucker free
move along now there’s none to see
black sheep gnashed teeth stomach rumbling
oversized ego big puns
with a tongue in cheek
work the magick
cuz everybody wanna see
rumplestiltskin spinning gold
in some dungarees
i’m hella grateful so i watch my speed
got it locked and the crate full
but lost that key
i’m a message in bottle
stay lost at sea
but i ain’t been to sleep
ever since i caught that Z
ugh don’t play chicken
tryna cross that street
can’t survive a cold world
if you lost that heat
ain’t no money where your mouth is
talk back cheap
nose dive hang glide
slide off that peak
yea play this at my funeral
same spiel as usual
somebody’s preacher
picking potting soil from my cuticles
rise early up when the rooster crows
when you really think about it
mmm kinda beautiful

yea when you really think about it
mmm kinda beautiful
you know
when you really think about it
mmm i’on know

flip 21 grams to an O tryna move a soul
dead eyes in my way
but i ain’t moving tho
i’ve seen it all
plus the sound kinda soothing so
i’ma sit and listen to the trumpet
play the bluest note
call me señor onion head
the layer slayer
peel back real rap
mr. razor blader
not a cutter but it’s butter
i’ll filet a hater
mac said love it or lie
so i’m like later player
tomato paste in the face
of the taste makers
set the metronome to methadone
and pace makers
i’m like fuck it rap now pray later
they say my days are numbered
never been a play it safe-r
rap’s ari aster
cringy with the imagery
faces in the trees talking back
say they sick of me
listen with my arms crossed
salty yet attentively
big headed hard headed
heart full of empathy
circle full of musical chairs
playing empty seats
pretentiously pretend to be
some sorta friend to me
i’ve slain dragons
killed masters
forgiven enemies
battled demon-like entities
for entry fees
no qualms being the man
i was meant to be
instantly begin to see
what could’ve ended me
could’ve been the bad trip
down in tennessee
could’ve been the judge
held a grudge during sentencing
essentially i’m just tryna put it simply
when i really think about it
mmm don’t you send for me

nah when i really think about it
mmm don’t you send for me

yea
i can’t tell you how i’m built
that’s too obvious
that really bring em out
really show you who’s the saltiest
who going nuts at the sodium podium
who going nuts at the sodium podium
i can’t tell you how i’m built
that’s too obvious
that really bring em out
really show you who’s the saltiest
who going nuts at the sodium podium
who going nuts at the sodium podium
