Both Hands (Black Rainbow)

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

These guys aren't tough-n-stuff

They can talk that shit when the chips are up

But, the chips are down, because I put them there

And I got a hot chip like the indie band

This is Christmas man and my flow is Miami

And the only goal that I have is my Emmy bitch

Yes, and a nigga stay down like I'm in a ditch

These niggas never did shit different, I was tired of it

See the other side of it

Hate how they say how hip-hop is dead and everybody is the same now

I am not the same, how could I ever be?

I am so fly and on fire like a phoenix wing

I go light speed, you go slow pace

And I go hard like G-O in bold face

Used to do me because I had to, now a nigga like to

Cause I get cheese like the mice do

I am a work of art, Crush niggas like I'm crushing on Annie Clark

They stop sleeping on me, good morning, like Alonzo

Go ahead and cut that shit out like a tonsil

Yes I stay weird and fuck chicks like I'm Gonzo

Sleeping on a Cow Pie, tired of the bullshit

Dick is her baby, why does she abuse it?

Eight shots and a beer and I'm passing out

Glasses, leather jacket, I'm a ask you out

Spend the night if you got your own tooth brush

I really think I like you, but not too much

I got big plans, yeah I feel myself hard like both hands

Yeah, I feel myself hard like both hands

"Throw the phone out the window

If you want the neighbors woke

You'll have to shout out loud

And set the bed alight and slow

If you want the neighbors woke

You'll have to shout even louder"

This is all fun, yeah, my work is Vacation

Me and six shots, that's a bad combination

I don't need your money, this is free downloading

Play it at a party, watch it pop like a soda

Thick, indie, black chick, double stuffed Oreo

Make I shit rapped pissed off like a urinal

You can not see me, I can change your prospective

Sick boy, click. That's an Animal Collective

Fuckin' with your world, like I don't need protection

I am just a rapper, I'm in such a perfection

Spit hot shit, yeah, my mouth is a toaster

Shit look easy like a turd in a short skirt

I am not a fairy tail, I've earned this shit

Leave a track on the stove and watch me burn this bitch

Sick as a dog, fly as an angel

I am just a rapper, better learn sign language

Cause I don't talk, yeah I fight till that rec spin

Yeah I got paper like I just ate a muffin

This is all wrong man, this is all wrong

Every nigga have and hit, and then they sing the same song

That is so not me, I'm a change it all up

Doctor knows I'm sick dude, I don't need a follow up

Tell me when you can't take the track any longer

Weird Soufflé and the noise makes me stronger

I have gotten stronger, tongue like a shot gun

If you let the track loose, you can watch me pop one

Sick boy bitch, and it's back to the future

Cause I'm McFly and it's not what I'm used to

Cause the used to call me other name of a rooster

Sky is the limit, like a jet pack booster

Fuckin' with a nigga like he fuckin' with a time bomb

Can't see a nigga mother fucker turn your eyes on

I am so different, you don't even know the half of

I do not talk, mother fucker I'm a Rapper!
