| That’s okay, my mind’s blank anyway
|
| I never have a thing to say, and if I do
|
| I write a song about it
|
| This ain’t therapy it’s too crowded
|
| Personality drowned out
|
| And stomped
|
| And soundless
|
| Maimed even if you claimed
|
| Style is sound, bitch
|
| Might as well be talkin'
|
| To myself up here
|
| You never listen
|
| What you fear is if you
|
| Listen you might hear some shit
|
| So I clear these clips
|
| And hope the recoil kicks
|
| I ain’t trying to appease spoiled kids
|
| See them down, boil with the boy
|
| Skull rapping that Hamlet
|
| They know that I’m ill
|
| Can’t stand it
|
| I don’t fuck with the gang
|
| Can’t stand it
|
| I’m too fat for these hoops
|
| They demandin'
|
| I’m not a stand in
|
| I’m my own man, (uh), (yeah)
|
| I’m my own man
|
| You better watch your mouth
|
| Cause I’m my own man, I ain’t
|
| Holdin' back for no one else
|
| I’ma show you who I am with my
|
| Own hands, I’ma cold man, own man
|
| I’ma do it my way 'til I’ma old man
|
| You better feel what I say from my soul, man
|
| I’ma own man, my own man
|
| That’s okay, my mind’s blank anyway
|
| I never have a thing to say
|
| And if I do, I ain’t tellin' you
|
| I been silent for a minute
|
| Growin' up with my nephews
|
| I was an alcoholic quitting cold
|
| Turkey in the cabin
|
| When at home I had to clean out the cabinet
|
| When at home I had to clean out the contacts
|
| Just some people who would never call me back
|
| Then I drop 100 pounds like a lad
|
| In a lap dance, magic up in my pen
|
| Ya’ll are writing something tragic
|
| Stanzas, can’t stand up, re-branded
|
| Damage, asinine, anti-aspirin
|
| Outlandish rapping
|
| Only for the cash
|
| Mercenary ass
|
| Can’t hold a damn candle to a light bulb
|
| BING, Google and Bing me, king me
|
| If you wanna compete, boy
|
| You catch me in a different kind of scenery, singin'
|
| I’ma own man, own man
|
| You better watch your fuckin' mouth
|
| Cause I’m my own man, I ain’t
|
| Holdin' back for no one else
|
| I’ma show you who I am with my own hands
|
| I’ma cold man, own man, I’ma do it my way 'til
|
| I’m an old man, you better feel what I say from my soul, man, I’m my own man,
|
| own man
|
| That’s okay, my mind’s blank anyway
|
| I never have a thing to say, and if I do
|
| I’ll let the city sing it
|
| Mmm… You hear that?
|
| That’s the sound of us, baby
|
| 3:37 in the morning
|
| Rolling down fourth street
|
| The snores, and the hearts
|
| The quiet pin drops, stillness
|
| Like pastries behind the glass
|
| Mmm, what a sweet melody
|
| Swelling the empty of night time
|
| That’s why I feel like I’m the only man alive
|
| Maybe I am, that’s why I write all these things
|
| You know?
|
| Away from all the snakes who bite
|
| And the biters who snake
|
| Away from the screams
|
| And the pressure
|
| And the invisible favors
|
| Away from homie prophecies
|
| And hindsight heroes
|
| Away from you, really, yeah
|
| It’s lonely, but maybe I’m all I need
|
| You know?
|
| Me and my crew, Authors, here
|
| In a silent way, yeah, in a silent way |
