[Chorus: Beacon Light]
They flow so basic, they got me bored but I been skating
I ride that tide right by, I'm waving
My flow so solar, call it Cajun
It's blazing
Oh they flow so basic (Basic)
They got me bored but I been skating (I been skatin' oh)
I ride that tide right by, I'm waving (Are you with me?)
My flow so solar I call it Cajun (Yeah)
It's blazing (Look)
Oh they flow so basic
[Verse 1: Beacon Light]
You got a basic flow, I ain't talking cadence your aim is low
Your mind is all trapped and it's wrapped in that matter about crap that don't matter
Your patterns are slow, your pen has potential to speak into life
You're bending your sentences, broken inside
Your vocab is trash you ain't using it right
Lyrics looking up like: "What did you write?"
You should tear it up we made for better
This is more than just rhyming a couple letters
Yeah, you act like you're fine but you been in the trenches
You need the divine connect to make you better
I'll make you better, yeah, you need it, you know it
You getting taller, but you know you not growing
Your pen is broken in the way that your flowing
You been indebted and you're revenue slowing, yeah
You got that basic disease, all your friends are getting bored
I think they falling asleep, they in that deathly slumber
Pencil lead by empty mumblers, bet that you can't bend these numbers
You need God to wake em' up
[Chorus: Beacon Light]
Your flow so basic, they got me bored but I been skating (I been skatin')
I ride that tide right by I'm waving (Ayy)
My flow so solar call it Cajun
It's blazing
Oh they flow so basic
[Verse 2: Derek Minor]
I gotta get the bag, my girl is really bad
My flow is colder than Coors, you gon' get drunk if you listen to my raps
It's all about me (All about me), I'm hanging plaques like they curtains
Don't I sound like every rapper including the Christians that just want your verses
Basic as basic can be, already know cause that used to be me
I'm talking last year when I was sleep
I traded all for the trap with the cheese
I turn on TV I see kings and queens
Telling me to eat more cake
So I secured the bag and bought some Gucci
Now, blackface on my blackface
Wasting my time, you so convinced you the center of universe
You so convinced that this money is really worth
I'm probably wasting this rhyme
But do your thing, don't blame me (Don't blame me)
When you finally find the American dream
Only a dream
[Chorus: Beacon Light]
They flow so basic, they got me bored but I been skating (I been skatin')
I ride that tide right by I'm waving (Ayy)
My flow so solar call it Cajun
It's blazing
Oh they flow so basic (Basic)
They got me bored but I been skating (I been skatin' oh)
I ride that tide right by I'm waving (Are you with me?)
My flow so solar call it Cajun (Yeah, yeah)
It's blazing
Oh they flow so basic
