Banger For Ben

(album: Free Barabbas - 2015)

Jesus loves me this I know
For the Bible tells me so
Little ones to Him belong
They are weak but He is strong
Yes, Jesus loves me

I be having bad dreams with time machines
The only difference is nobody really cares
No conversations, just arguments
With a person who ain't even really there
I worked so hard on my presentation
Ducked off inside my secret lair
Just to pour my heart out up on this stage
For a few hand claps and some blank stares
To myself I said Jesus loves you
And if they don't then they will eventually
I asked why she didn't respond to my text
She lied and said her phone ran out of memory
The Body Christ is full of politicians
Look good so people will support your ministry
While my supporters mention me on Twitter
Can't repeat it but just know that they really feeling me
I'mma show you something new
I'mma show you something that you never knew you could do
And we gone tell everybody
So when it's all said and done you can't say you never knew
It's just me and my crew
We got kicked out the room but we back on the top of the roof
It's just us, we don't need nobody
If you ain't really about it don't worry that's cool
And if you don't like me
Well I'ma give you a hug because I still love you
And if they start taking shots and I can't take the bullet
Well at least I know I'm still fire proof
I look at my messages
They like "I know you believe in God and that's cool
But can you make something for me and my homies to ride to?"

They be like "Aha I got a question:
Why you ain't got no bangers?
Is it cause your flow too dangerous?
Don't you wanna be the greatest?
I understand that you tryna change
But can you please do this just for me
Just forget everything that you want
And please give us what we need
And we need some bangers
We need some bangers

I wanna sing love songs
I wanna tell you about all the pain that's in my heart
But y'all just want club songs
Y'all wanna hear about my money that I used to buy a new car
I wanna sing about Jesus
About the girl that don't like me that I still fell in love with
'Cause I can scream we don't love these hoes
It doesn't change the way I feel when I see her out in public
But stop it Aha
Because when you talk like that
The only thing they hear is "blah blah blah blah"
They wanna hear drugs and girls shootings like
Ra-ta-ta-ta
They will not get this if you do not rap this in triplets
'Cause everybody else is rapping in triplets
And do not forget to repeat the word triplets
Like triplets on triplets on triplets
It doesn't matter cause y'all will never get it
I don't have time like a cell phone with no more minutes
I'm ahead like Atlantic and y'all pacific
And when people bugging me I give them crickets
Y'all ain't really makin moves, that's a pivot
But I wanna travel, got a one way ticket
On my way to heaven while I'm still living
I finished the project in January
The only that was missing was an album cover
Then Ben hit me up and said copyright it cause they robbing you William they want your flubber
"Now the mixtape is real cool and all
And I respect your story so please don't judge me
But don't you have something I can play in public?"
Well here you go baby brother
