Uhh
Ok
Uhh, uhh, yo

Pull the cords from out the back of my neck
Screaming, "Fuck the system!"
This is for the worthless thugs and nerds with drug addictions
The ones doomed to perish early in they double digits
Dubbed as different by your families full of crumpled bridges
But you are not unwanted or incompetent
That much is common sense, understand your consequence
You don't have to function in society so ominous
You are not a failure if you fail to meet their confidence
For instance you will find that I am incredible
For them I'm Einstein, all these rhymers seem edible
Given my time I will shine from the pedestal
To the very top of the mountain I'm getting to
Fight and I never lose, lie is all they ever do
Try all they'd like for their life but I'll never move
Climb to the sky with the mic to the heavens, to spit one time for the minds of the decimals

Knee deep in shit, people hollow
No substance, leech on bravado (yeah)
If they look like the money working for 'em, idolize and call them role models (R-A-V)
Knee deep in shit, people hollow
No substance, leech on bravado
If I can do shit today then, why the fuck would I need tomorrow?

Look, Apophis been returned, ho
It's me on the papyrus
Peeking through the iris
Lead a band of pirates
Reefer in the stylus
Chief up, I'm the pilot
The world's a freak asylum and I need to seek asylum, what
Quiet on that loud, why my speaking seem so silent?
Seeking out a sound
While your speech seems like a siren
Catch you in the streets where I'll see you suiciding
And I'll see my soul excited when I see your soul expiring
Seems there's no deciding if the scene is slowly dying
Sleeping all the time is the most simple of all science
E-X-O, now that's a symbol of defiance
Saying you simpletons deciphering my symbol in society
Perceive me as a sidekick
I simply cease that side cred
Come see me in the cypher
Sipping life we're seeping from your eyelids
Never cease to see it even when I'm seated on the side
Right-hand side sick and tired of these here liars

Knee deep in shit, people hollow
No substance, leech on bravado
If they look like the money working for 'em, idolize and call them role models
Knee deep in shit, people hollow
No substance, leech on bravado
If I can do shit today then, why the fuck would I need tomorrow?

Still eating Caesar salad while you slip n' sliding streaks keep Freaking piling up like six of your assignments
A scientist decides it's time she came into see me, psych psych
I'm speaking Tarius to see you bitter, geeks are crying
But your skills, they won't suffice for me to even size you up
But it's decent to a genius who can clearly see inside you
I insist you decease, please cease the cycle
Seamlessly, I seem insightful lead these apples through the cycle
I'm ridiculous though, keep drinking syphilis though
But no amount of prescriptions or penicillin will do
Just an ambivalent dude, with a villainous crew killing it only winning cause dude it's too expensive to lose
My bench is a proof, sending vivid images through
My interview with a doc at the clinic is due
Criminally underrated homie, isn't it true
I've been down a lot of roads, I'll revisit a few
Let's go

Knee deep in shit, people hollow
No substance, leech on bravado
If they look like the money working for 'em, idolize and call them role models
Knee deep in shit, people hollow
No substance, leech on bravado
If I can do shit today then, why the fuck would I need tomorrow?
