My dawg ain't seen a mirror in years
Reflection's probably crowded already
He grew so much slower than the rest of us
Was supposed to have flowered already
It mostly tastes sour
You speak about how our connection
Was lost and who accountable
I can say it was me
I can see a few things
That I would've did different undoubtedly
But make no mistake
My makeup didn't come from no powder room
The weight didn't come from the calories
Tryna deflate these inflated personas
Cause otherwise we just conflating realities
Oh, the tyranny
I can't do them great Pyrenees things
All them pharaohs done showed
Ain't no barrels of gold
Gon' go with you when die in them pyramid schemes
Set fire to my spirit and dreams
If it means that I sleep on myself
Catch me breathing that hardly
I'm thinking more Marley
If we ever speaking on wealth
I'm thinking Chris Farley
We look at the world
Get dumber and dumber, I seen it myself
By definition
These verses depositions, I subpoena myself
Hop the fence, the grass was greener, y'all lied
We not so penny-wise down here
It ain't too many guys 'round here
But niggas pop up when shit arise
Make it a potluck, they bringing sides
This shit is not luck, we be divine
Sometimes you gotta re-remind niggas
Watch niggas try to reword what you already defined
I just want my tributaries streamlined
How come all these visionaries seem blind
Don't think y'all decisions carry no weight
Protect yo neck, nigga, watch yo screen time
You slap they neck, discard yo' dreams, huh?
