| Yo, check the method, please let the record reflect
|
| I brought it back to the essence the second we met
|
| Yo, bartender. |
| Hennessey and ten of these Beck’s beers
|
| For every head here that’ll steadily rep (Yeah)
|
| Pose a toast to what we’ll never regret (Cheers)
|
| Here’s to you never pressing eject. |
| You know
|
| The pedigree (Yes!). |
| The impression we left’s
|
| The depth of craters from atomic weaponry tests
|
| In the desert, so expect it from the records we press
|
| Behead snakes who take credit like identity theft
|
| (You're getting me vexed), so to keep your memory fresh
|
| I’m mentally stressed, and, testing me, the penalty’s death
|
| (The Devil’s reject) wishing my enemy’s flesh-
|
| -‘ll get leprosy, yet I’m still heavenly blessed to be
|
| The best you’ll ever see. |
| (No!), I’ll never be less
|
| Than fire on stage—no pyrotechnic special effects
|
| Smoked with Bob Marley’s ghost, getting respect
|
| «Shot the Sheriff,» put two in the deputy’s chest (Yes yes y’all!)
|
| (Yes, yes, y’all!) You don’t know the pleasure we get
|
| It’s too much to measure like the U.S. Treasury debt
|
| Specialty chef recipes with chemistry sets, selling
|
| Celebrities meth if I ain’t getting these checks
|
| And, on the crime scene, I allegedly crept, dressed
|
| Like Ron Jeremy filming Seventies sex. |
| Now
|
| A day in the life. |
| No, it ain’t nothing nice, so
|
| I came to give you something real (Something real!)
|
| Staying true to myself—fuck everybody else—yo
|
| I really don’t care you feel (How you feel!)
|
| Relaxed in the cut, drinking Jack in a cup
|
| Freedom fighter chill with Muslims in the back of the bus, screaming
|
| «As-salāmu ʿalaykum,» in the Vatican, much obliged
|
| To cum inside Mary Magdalene’s guts. |
| Rappers
|
| Come up like, «Why you such an arrogant fuck?»
|
| ‘Cause y’all are strapped to a harness that’s attached to my nuts
|
| Y’all faggots are just (stuck up dicks) like catheters, plus
|
| (Dudes are wack) I heard your newest track and it sucks
|
| Now we’re scratching the surface—(nah!)—we're cracking the crust
|
| Like asteroids 'til volcanic magma erupts
|
| I’ve been traveling the planet, I’ve been stacking some bucks
|
| So every dude in town Snoops around like Daz and Kurupt
|
| (Enough!) You’re ‘bout to see my atoms combust
|
| Like stars, we’re born in carbon form from magical dust
|
| (Y'all are antimatter), meaning you don’t matter to us
|
| Rebel Armz in formation, we’re attacking at dusk
|
| Tactical rush in battle that’ll shatter and crush
|
| Masonic Monuments, then build statues of us
|
| In place to represent some real cats you can trust
|
| Cracking a Dutch with a motherfucking animal’s tusk
|
| What?
|
| A day in the life. |
| No, it ain’t nothing nice, so
|
| I came to give you something real (Something real!)
|
| Staying true to myself—fuck everybody else—yo
|
| I really don’t care you feel (How you feel!) |
