verse i: close your eyes get a better view me I'm on twitter talking like it's just you and me Shows you stopped coming 2 But i never stopped killing em Thought that i was chilling  I just sub zero finished em fuck a label man just go ahead and sell it if you really are thee shit then they really gonna smell it I'm really understanding  That they'll never understand me You do this shit 4 Grammys  Nah I do this shit 4 family's  hook Verse ii Rolling stoned got me feeling complex  Food 4 thought free 4 all in this readers digest When your likes won't keep thee lights on When you  hungry and your hyped gone When you wake up And your life's wrong And it comes out thee mic's off Rock that flat top like its really 92? when it's all dark do you really shine through? When life's feeling short like its really 5'2 When it's all exposed where will you really hide you? hook Verse III : Suck my dick in public I Danny brown'ed em fuck it I'm going up  You throwing up Bring that sickness 2 they stomachs You walk it out i run this I wonder where my minds @ Damn son where you find that? Probably where your moms @ Don't confuse that hunger 4 that thirst Or those numbers 4 your worth If you really bout that work Let me see your paper twerk Thee drive of this Young lad whipping that young slab You out in thee dark parked in park acting like youre so gassed Fuck a label No jumper cables Still kick starting With yo grown ass Dunce caps Dumb as  You like robbing a bank w/ no mask Fuck niggas is so ass in costumes all year so Halloween tell me what thee you go as? I'm just speaking on them real things you smoking on that mid range jump shot oh god swag ex cops idk options go hospitals vominos Miguel with thee leg drop BOW!

hook that only happens once & shit: I can be your canvas when you're painting or your umbrella when it's raining kittens and the dogs life's not a biotch it just depends how you treat her meda, stay in touch like thee screen on a kiosk so when I leave ya'll dream on dream on dream on  trying 2 make an album is like trying 2 make an outfit from scratch mixing fabrics mix and match it mix it mastered think you got a banger then you hang it on a hanger and hoping that a stranger hears it and they want it in a lives and in their closets then they smile and then they cop it and they tell they friends about it than a label starts 2 like it treat you like an object then they break you like a promise just trying 2 make a profit but you're really just a prophet but your rump aint got no kiss marks thinking you should kickstart  but seeing you got this far by working not just wish hard but your pockets low on swiss chard with them real ass bills  you need a full course meal but that home cooked trill  just don't sell damn how you feel? everybody eating bacon out promoting  satan but ya soul aint sold  but ya money needs saving own your  own masters and I'm still slaving scarier than wes craven I'm just trying not 2 curse a lot try 2 work a lot and hope one day it's worth a lot a couple lots a couple acres a couple spots fewer neighbors we all need that life we started from thee bottom but aint everybody here isn't  every single year everybody's year? yea that's why I write so many kinds songs cuz you never know which one will be thee one 2 get you on it's a cold world hope this keeps you warm
