Dear Yessie
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.
This is the realest I've ever been
Realest I've ever been
Bitch, a minority, they wouldn't let me in
Bitch, a minority, vexing your president
If I had a dick then I might get some preference
I got an ego, but I'm never flexing it
When you're the truth
You ain't worried 'bout replicas
This the realest I've ever been
This is the realest I've ever been
Singing: Fuck being delicate
I like to fuck with the lights on
I like to fuck kinda violent
Never fuck without a title
I like it most when I'm writing
You love me most when I'm riding
And looking up to me
Your bitch gon' look up to me
I love it when you look up to me
Your new bitch gon' look up to me
Riding, and looking up to me
Your bitch gon' look up to me
I love it when you look up to me
Your new bitch gon' look up to me, too
This is the realest I've ever been
Realest I've ever been
See all my demons and strip all my skeletons
I might just kill you if you touch a relative
Usually nice, but I'm just hella sensitive
See all the vipes and I swerve all the venomous
Sell out my show, so the snakes, they irrelevant
Don't fuck with negative, they try to fuck me
But to 'em I'm celibate
But usually I like to fuck with the lights on
I like to fuck kinda violent
Never fuck without a title
I like it most when I'm writing
You love me most when I'm riding
And looking up to me
Your bitch gon' look up to me
I love it when you look up to me
Your new bitch gon' look up to me
Riding, and looking up to me
Your bitch gon' look up to me
I love it when you look up to me
Your new bitch gon' look up to me, too
I'm trying to die a legend, so I study legacies
But these W's don't come without some penalties
Like Bob and Amy, may they rest in peace
Thank God that this world's been blessing me
And every now and then, I feel the world testing me
Fucked up when day ones start looking like the enemies
Fucked up when whiskey starts looking like the remedy
I'm trying to share my life
But I'm precious with my energy
(Unbothered, unbothered, unbothered)
Impermeable, unbothered, impermeable, unbothered
I'm the people's champ, Obama
And you won't understand, Melania
Permeable, unbothered, sick, allergic to the con artist
'Choo! Fake woke, 'choo! An imposter
Only real ones up in my roster
Like junior T, that's my roster, you know
I just been passed up
I've been high, my shit been fucked up
I've been high, my shit been
