| If they show love,
|
| I’m gonna show it back
|
| If the catch is too small,
|
| I’m gonnn throw it back.
|
| I’ve done a lot,
|
| but I ain’t got a lot to show for that.
|
| A lot of things have happened since we last spoke.
|
| Like smashed hopes.
|
| Half empty?
|
| Nah the glass is broke.
|
| I’m the captain of this crashed boat
|
| and when its time to sink or swim I always choose to do the back float
|
| I know that not a lot of humans are as sharp as I am.
|
| My modesty’s my greatest quality.
|
| It’s not I’m lying,
|
| I know I’m just all right with this art of rhyming.
|
| No I’m not applying myself, in fact I’m hardly trying.
|
| But just imagine what would happen if I stuck to rapping,
|
| Man I’d prolly have a helicopter and a couple of mansions,
|
| with some guard dogs with a bunch of fans they love attacking.
|
| Probably not, but its fun to imagine it yo.
|
| I cant complain at where I’m at
|
| I’m just happy to be here
|
| I’d be ecstatic if we happened to have a repeat year.
|
| while passing the reefer.
|
| Man that’s what I call having a breather.
|
| If they show love,
|
| I’m gonna show it back
|
| If the catch is too small,
|
| I’m gonnn throw it back.
|
| I’ve done a lot,
|
| but I ain’t got a lot to show for that.
|
| It’s your story, so you frame it how you wanna frame it.
|
| I get the picture, but that doesn’t mean I’ve gotta hang it.
|
| I used to be a mormon, saying things like «gosh and dang it»,
|
| Now I’m trying to rap while I act like I don’t want to make it.
|
| Fuck a record deal!
|
| Now, I only say that cause they haven’t made the offer yet,
|
| I’m confident they never will.
|
| my only competition is myself from the year previous,
|
| it’s clear to me I have to fear greediness
|
| And steer clear from them devious types,
|
| and media hype, I’m booking my expedia flight immediately
|
| That’s right, I’m leaving tonight, to find peace on a beach
|
| is where I’m needing to write
|
| so fly me to France, I think its time my life is enhanced,
|
| teach me all about fashion, lets go buy me some pants,
|
| There might be a chance, that I can finally find some romance,
|
| with a fly little mami who invites me to dance.
|
| If they show love,
|
| I’m gonna show it back
|
| If the catch is too small,
|
| I’m gonnn throw it back.
|
| I’ve done a lot,
|
| but I ain’t got a lot to show for that. |
