lyrics

Hey listen up it's me again.
I'm coming at you and I'm failing again.
still got my swag, still losing flow,
but if you laugh at me I'll call you a ho!
Bitch, I ain't no bitch.
You should stop bitching, you're being a bitch!
I'll stop saying bitch from now on
and I'm gonna go and get my swag on.
I'll try to be serious now,
hopefully I still know how.
But I got the mind and I got the brains
so you should all stop calling me insane.
I'm pretty intelligent.
I study quite a lot and I play in a band.
But it's not about me, it's not about me.
This rap song's all about you, ya see!

I'm sick of gals who judge you by your cover.
I'm sick of her, but she thinks that I love her.
It's just a fact, we're all dumb.
So pack your bags and go get drunk!
I don't think it's worth your time,
there's a few other things that come to mind:
like making music, chilling out
and having fun, that's what it's all about!

Keep your mind clear and you'll be okay,
please don't listen to Ian McKaye.
He had some problems with his rhymes
now he's stuck forever in '85.
It's cool to drink and smoke
as long as you don't become a joke.
Keep it fresh, and keep it clean
stay off the drugs, if you know what I mean.
I don't mind if you get stoned,
get boned, condoned, roll another joint,
but I'm not into it,
as I said before, I don't give a shit!
All I do is get drunk and regret,
pass out and wake up in my bed,
miraculously, it ain't easy you see
cause there's definitely something wrong with me.
