say they’re waitin until i’m famous, when i make it
Like I aint already burned out on momentum or the patience
I’m out of names to talk about collaboration
cause i blocked everybody with credible allegations on em
I don’t need anymore information on em.
Opting out of the wave of crazy hating on em,
Raking flames ain’t a game I wanna play
Keep berating on em imma look away
I ain’t afraid to take a hatchet to the past
And sack every sap who can only look back,
And I ain’t afraid to let a bad phase pass,
And be that kinda act you’re ashamed to blast
Is that just plain where I was made to be?
wanna be different enough to look the same to me
Talking to brick walls all facing me
Oh are they just afraid of me
They say I’m niche,
Say I sound too unique,
Gatekeeping me from your screen,
Are they afraid of me?
Some say they hate it
Just how intimidating
I can be when I’m sayin
You must be afraid of me
i just ghosted my old clique,
took friends’ word to turn down VO gigs,
made a pact with a band, and damn that broke, and
now in out here again, free-floating
I’m fed up with like every scene,
Not a clique for me that I feel fit to be in.
begin to think too cynically, self critically, to worse degrees.
And personally,
There might me more than than two or three,
People left with less than negative impressions of me
But I say say what I mean, you can leave me be
Let me drop my hot takes in 3 AM tweets
Nobody left sayin make the best of the worst,
don’t know what’s bad til i’ve had better first,
Gimme bars are hardwired from a god with a smirk,
i’m hardly tryin, and i’m makin shit work
They say I’m niche,
Say I sound too unique,
Gatekeeping me from your screen,
Must be afraid of me.
Some say they hate it
Just how intimidating
I can be when I’m sayin
Might as well be afraid of me
