Spell Check

Lyrics

Spell Check [verse 1] Don't call me sugar, baby, sweetie or honey (ew) Don't call me girly, bitch you tryna be funny See I don't like being patronized or made to feel diminutive So call me by my name, or justice will be punitive That's cool, what's your name you may ask? Should i use your stage name or your name from the past Well that depends, see I've been Alex, Lalex, even Alebeska But ask if I have a preference, lll answer 'you betcha' Everybody please call me Lex, the Lexicon artist I'm the nerdy rapper with the words that are the hardest It started with just Lex but I added some more So i could shove my stupid foot into this Google search engine door But even Lex? You still manage to fuck it up I wrote a whole song about it, was that not enough? Obviously we need to do it again But this time it's a singalong you can do with your friends, YEAH [Chorus] I'll make it easy you don't need to spell check It's L to the E to the mf X Yessss X4 [verse 2] A Lex, by any other name, would be just as sick But if you call me Lexi you can eat a dick Call me Lexi one more time and then you'll see I'll write you off harder than expenses in a Schedule C Nowhere in Alex is an 'i' except in Liu But understanding that might be too much to expect of you So I'll break it down, I'm partial to Lex for its gender neutral use But Lexi's way too feminine and even worse, cute Yes I use my government name on my facebook But if you call me Alex I will give you a strange look (huh) I'm not offended I just find it kinda weird When a rando addresses me as if we've been friends for years Listen, my name is Alex, that's Lex for short Not Alexandra, not Alexis, I'm a Lex in court So in short, please refrain from asking me what Alex stands for That's my real name, you can read it on my passport [Chorus] I'll make it easy you don't need to spell check It's L to the E to the mf X Yesss X4 [verse 3] A lot of rappers wrote songs about their alias Like Sammus, Schaffer the Darklord, also the man whose Slim is the Shadiest But, I bet your ass that they've never been asked "Hey what's your real name." "Alex?" "No no, I mean before that." Listen idiot, my English name is not fake I'm a citizen, but thank you for your hot take See I've got two names, one of them is in Mandarin But you can't even say it, why bother with your shenanigans? Okay fine, my Chinese name is 劉庭安 And it means "peace in the family" I don't know if I am Maybe I am, but when I'm Lex, I know I'm the man And if you think that's not the real me, I don't give a damn So call me Lex for the fans, and Alex for the fam Come with me we'll take it back to where it all began See, whatever name they try to sell me next I'll ask you why you fuckin' with the L.E.X Yes [Chorus] I'll make it easy you don't need to spell check It's L to the E to the mf X Yesss X4
