lyrics

I been drinking green tea all day
Girl told me go play
I don’t need no pass for the hallway
Ted Lasso mind state but bed full of mind games
Yes I know I’m great
But I despise me
So that’s despite me
I’m scared I’m not enough
I’m slapshotting my hockey puck
Did you know that I played hockey once?
That Midwest Molly sucker punch
That Caligari Doctor funk
That don’t wake the sleepwalker up
He’ll cause you harm and self-destruct
So shut the fuckin’ yuppies up
I’m Garfunkel covering Monk
I’m the art bought from out a trunk
I’m Garfield on Monday
I’m fuckin’ done with proving who I am to someone dumb
Odds are I’m not what you want
But long shot me is on the gun
So aim your piece and say your piece
we’re Carnage, Shriek, and Eddie Brock
It’s a Marvel these old setting suns
Don’t bob like old heads hitting rock
Growing old is only lonely if you let that heavy rock
erode with all the shit you seen
and let it turn to shit you want

Get gone
Get the goddamn kids off the goddamn lawn

I traded you to be famous too for a day or two
I made the moves that the people say you should make in school
No ethics as long as you believe you’re meant to be topping
That’s that prosperity gospel for young millennial artists
Who think it’s revolutionary to profit
Money’s the root of all evil until you got it
And everything I see has no context
This life is still one hell of an incredible gift
Like a 7” extended mix of Let’s Pretend by Prince
But I’m not married to experience
I mess around with it on weekends
I stay ready to stay up late
Baby I sleep in
She got the press talkin
Me I’m just bad news
She wearin’ red bottoms
Me I’m a baboon
Or maybe strike that, reverse it
When I’m spiteful I deserve it
I’m an eyeful if you like guys in purple
12 bars, disciple circle
Well taught, I fight to hurt you
and I know how to hurt cuz I been wounded
I stay losin’ like AA stays lucid
Step 2, new Kydd
