(Who?) The red dot, it kills me, the red dot, it heals me Go get me a new lens, yeah [Verse 1] Y'all are too fake, like my mouth hurts (Haha) But if you're for real, then that's way worse (True) These days, I do not believe in the real or the fake If that's you, then that's you that I found first (Yeah) Fuck all that justification, I'm done bein' patient Like, what the fuck? Why are you comin' and hatin' (Why?) And telling on me like we up in the station? I swear they all want me stuck under the basement I slipped into quicksand (Yeah) Just tryna get up from the pavement, uh (True) Fell in at thirteen (Uh-huh) Just tryna get one for the ages (I am) I'm up on a scaffold (Huh?) Just tryna get up on the stages (Heh) I feel like an asshole For tryna say, "Fuck all the cages", uh [Chorus] But I was too late (Yeah) Taking shit too far, uh, yeah (Too far) Had to drive back in a cab, out the window I was looking for a new car, uh, yeah (I was looking for a new car) Looking for a new life (New life) Looking out a new lens, uh (New lens) Looking for a new me (New me) Looking for a new Ben, uh, yeah (New Ben, yeah, yeah, yeah) [Verse 2] I keep on double-tappin', and they love the rappin' And they love the action, and they love distractions But we hate the comparison Parasitic, they're a critic, haters are my therapist (True) Can't connect the dots or Connect Four (Haha) To be honest, I just wish I could connect more (Yeah) But I can't connect a phone to my Bluetooth So how could I connect the youth through my YouTube? Red dot They playing games, like the Xbox Price on my head, what my head cost? Ice on my neck, what my neck cost? Oh (Ice, ice, ice) So I gotta flex a lot At least seven times, or the record stops (Mmm) And if you make one mistake They'd pull the trigger, like, I'd be better off, uh, yeah (Uh, shit) I got too much shit I wanna get across, uh (Uh) They don't wanna see me get my message off, uh (No) They don't want that but they want this, uh (Uh-huh) I am not the waiter at a restaurant, huh (No) Lot on my plate, if that's the case I better hit 'em with the extra sauce, uh Everybody's aimin' at me But they only shoot they shot when the boy finally get a shot, uh (Yeah) [Bridge] Put that red dot on my head, yeah Just take a shot and I'm dead, yeah I can't be talked off the ledge, uh I might just fall off the edge, ooh Everyday, you wanna play I wanna make, you wanna take I wanna give you my life But you stalkin' it for the mistakes, yeah [Outro] Red dot Camera better get that head shot (Head shot, shot, shot) You dead wrong If you think that I could press pause, uh (Yeah) I'm like, "Stop!", they like, "Nah!" They like, "Let's watch" Red dot Camera aimin' at my head- pop! [Part II] [Intro] Red dot I just wanna be One of them One of them [Verse 3] Yeah, I been here so long, four months on a song Just to throw that shit all away, been like that all along (Yeah) 'Cause the expectations rise with the numbers, but it's still one, I'm the only one Gets under my skin and tears my bones apart, no Napoleon I press upload and unload, tryna tell the story that's untold Getting downloads when I'm down low, tryna keep up the household I'm seventeen, they like, "How old? He's washed up! He's about old!" "Name a single rapper he's outsold!" "It's a 'No' from me", like Cowell, uh (Yeah, no) Better say, "Cheese", better say, "Please" — "Fuck that song, man, better make these" "You been down? Better take these:" — "Better wake up" — I'ma stay sleep Used to wake up in a blissful existence Now, I wake up in the morning like I'm wishing I didn't [Outro] Oh
