Lyrics

[Intro] (Wait, please) (Please, just let me go) (Laugh) A bed mite A parasite Songs from the rap god [Verse 1] I sit back with this pack of Zig-Zag's and this bag Of this weed, it gives me the shit needed to be The most meanest MC on this, on this Earth And since birth, I've been cursed with this curse to just curse And just blurt this berserk and bizarre shit that works And it sells and it helps in itself to relieve All this tension, dispensin' these sentences Gettin' this stress that's been eatin' mе recently off Of my chest and I rеst again peacefully (Peacefully) But at least have the decency in you To leave me alone, when you peeps see me out In the streets when I'm eatin' or feedin' my daughter To not come and speak to me, I don't know you And no, I don't owe you a motherfuckin' thing I'm not Miley or P!nk, I'm not what your friends think I'm not super friendly, I can be a bitch If you tempt me, my tank is on empty No patience is in me and if you offend me I'm liftin' you ten feet in the air I don't care who was there and who saw me just jaw you Go call you a lawyer, file you a lawsuit I'll smile in the courtroom and buy you a wardrobe I'm tired of all you, I don't mean to be mean But that's all I can be, it's just me [Chorus] And I am whatever you say I am If I wasn't, then why would I say I am? On Twitter, the news, every day I am I keep it hundo, and now I'm banned 'Cause I am whatever you say I am If I wasn't, then why would I say I am? On Facebook, the news, every day I am I don't know, that's just the way I am [Verse 2] Sometimes I just feel like I'm Marshall, I hate to be bothered With all of this nonsense, it's constant And, "Oh, it's her lyrical content And all of the politics gotten such rotten responses" And all of this controversy circles me And it seems like the media immediately Points a finger at me So I point one back at 'em, but not the index or pinkie Or the ring or the thumb, it's the one you put up When you don't give a fuck, when you won't just put up With the bullshit they pull, 'cause they full of shit too When a Boogaloo bitch shoots up her school And they blame it on Karens And white terrorists, and all the red hats Now badges and bats are in Middle America Now it's a tragedy, now it's so sad to see An upper-class city Havin' this happenin', then attack BLM who refuse to give in, but I grin 'Cause they feed me the fuel that I need for the fire to burn And it's burnin', and I have returned [Chorus] And I am whatever you say I am And if I wasn't, then why would I say I am? On Twitter, the news, every day I am I keep it hundo, and now I'm banned 'Cause I am whatever you say I am And if I wasn't, then why would I say I am? On Facebook, the news, every day I am I don't know, that's just the way I am [Verse 3] I'm so sick and tired of all of these liars That I should get high and just go rapid-fire And fuck all these labels, let's stop with the fables You're not gonna stop me from being audacious And pigeon-hole me into some metal sensation To cop me rotations at underground stations And I just do not got the patience To deal with these cocky Caucasians who think I'm some wigger who just tries to be black 'cause I talk With an accent and shrivel their balls So they always keep askin' the same fuckin' questions What set do I claim, what hood I grew up in The why, the who, what, when, the where, and the how 'Til I'm grabbin' their throats and I'm tearin' them out 'Cause they drivin' me crazy, I can't take it I'm racin', I'm pacin', I stand and I sit And I'm thankful for every fan that I get But I can't take a shit in the bathroom without Someone standin' by it! Have some respect And I'll sign both your tits Get your ass in the back [Outro] [?] I am I Mythbreaker ([?]) Godslayer I am I Mythbreaker ([?]) Godslayer I am I
