lyrics

Never been ghetto but I'm a poverty hustler
only lowered suspension on the car is the muffler
that's how the spark's lit, when I park it on your carpet
not gonna find me at the market, target,
lark shit, snitches singing but this shit is for the birds
they wanna' make cash cows and roll for the herd
it's simply absurd, and all simply words
and if you wanna' roll em together you oughta' learn
(LEARN WHAT?) Bitch! Nothing!
You ain't reinventing the wheel so quit frontin'
see, something you might wanna do's invest in better soundbytes
instead of biting styles from someone you think you sound like
I'm wound tight and stressed, dressed up to catch the flak
and I might snap your back like my snapback hat
get your act right, cat... comin' hard like Bane in Knightfall
tearin' up the track like it's made from fuckin' drywall
Bitches do not answer the phone whenever I call
somehow, they ain't never be home, and this is my fault?
And I'm like... wait, bitches? Really?
I must've took a bump to the head, I'm actin' silly.
From Detroit to Philly, nah, I don't like your sports teams
haven't since I was fourteen, and I been havin' more dreams
ESP or ESPN, hell I have foreseen
hella roars and screams and the Pens playing more Queen!

I wanna go to where everybody knows my name
and that's home, that's the best kinda fame
I wanna go to where everybody loves me
where I can be full of myself, but stay hungry
I wanna go to where I'm keepin' all my magic
I wanna go to where I'm hangin' up my jacket
I wanna keep going, I gotta keep going
Keep going cuz this life is Ottomatic

And I'd rather work smart then hard, and that's my issue
as I try to restart this car, don't give a shit who
warned me to avoid my own hubris, it's useless and stupid
like this fuckin' car, can't move it
Stuck on the side of the road, waiting for Triple A
couldn't give a shit if they towed my vehicle away
and left me with a brand new chevrolet
because my goddamn brain took an LOA
and that's to say I might be out my mind
not really crazy maybe something I have left behind
Yo, it's adventure time, and I only wish this wasn't really life
I try to play it off, I feel this real strife
You can feel the slice of the knife as I roll the dice for your wife
she ain't finna' make alright, turn out the lights.
So nice to be invited to this game night,
we oughta' do Clue again, next week, same time!

I'll meet your bad attitude with a double dose of apathy
like every word that comes out your mouth has been left to atrophy
and reabsorb into the time stream, good luck tryna' find me
today I'm living my dream (Unlikely...)
If you tryna' see this, I suggest you get some glasses
hike up to the annex, maybe take a couple classes
it's dangerous to go alone, here, you oughta' have this
8 by 10 glossy signed "FUCK YOU, OTTOMATIC"
Cut you out my life if you bringin' that negativity
you kiddin, b? you the one who's finna' be missin' me
i don't need this kinda thing messin' up my symmetry
when my ability is still up in it's infancy
fluidity expanding to show my viability
verbal agility matched only by your salinity
y'all fuckin' killin' me, yeah, y'all fuckin' killin' me
I am what I am only cuz I have the will to be
