“Beast I.Z.” is about not fitting into the rest of the hip-hop scene.
Adam recounts his struggles as a young Korean man growing up in the racially heated city of Memphis, Tennessee with a desire to rap; a thought which comes up often in his work.
The sound seems intended to be somewhat alien with...
[Verse 1]
These rappers lookin' at me funny man
Funny how I ain't have this problem
When it wasn't for the money, man
They don't fucking understand
Still I'm broke and struggling
And he's a beast, bitch Gir!
You're hatin' him
Oh I'm a freak because I rap about nerd core
And maybe I'm a geek because I rap with big words or
Sometimes I feel relief when I can float above Earth's orbit
Like high up in the sky that's what I work for
It's like
Bugged out eyes a little freak of nature rapping
Cause the teacher never gave him
Enough homework and patience
So that the pages became an escape from
The places that he wasn't accepted
He plotted his invasion
Huh
And thus far I've been successful
In achieving success for doing the thing I do exceptional-ly
So why they lookin' at me
Like that?
And if you laugh I react right back
Grr!
[Chorus] X 2
I am a space man
I am an alien
I traveled light years
A homosapien
A middle finger for all the cats who hated him
(cause I'm a beast bitch! Gir!)
Invader Zim
[Verse 2]
A skinny Asian from the South with a mouth like Jimmy Hart
Who's never without his headphones from the start
The black kids used to say you ain't black enough to rap
And the white kids used to say why you trying to be black
But I ain't trying to be either I'm me and in case you wondered
Should've seen him when I first spit in a cypher in Columbus
Cause at first they stood and listened
And soon they started feeling it
Then I dropped a punchline their hands went to the ceiling
For those
Few seconds felt at home in that place
And pretty soon they shoved a microphone in my face
And then it was shows where I proposed to display
Some songs I composed in my basement
As their interest rates rose with inflation
Now they whisper on these websites
Or they say I'm just weird or say I'm goofy or I'm different
That's the things that I hear and I'm so fascinatin'
Like I'm from outer space or somethin'
Why don't you just get out my face or somethin'
Grr
[Chorus] X 2
I am a space man
I am an alien
I traveled light years
A homosapien
A middle finger for all the cats who hated him
(cause I'm a beast bitch! Gir!)
Invader Zim
[Verse 3]
If being a rapper's my only social snafu
Then I'm here to eat emcees like a hungry Fiona Apple
When they ask you, what's he do for a living?
Just say "music"
Friend's friends they ask for my name
Just say "the new kid"
Haven't been home for a minute
While flying by zooming through the night sky
In a flying object identified
And if I
Am blowing up just know
I eat cats, talk fast and then always go for the gusto
Cause Adam inhabits a place in outer space
And he won't hear you scream his name
If you're falling out of his grace
All in all he's a case
For a newly discovered race
In Area 51
Observing these simpletons
You better come get it, hon
If you tryna stay alive and I was sent by the queen
To prepare the feast for the hive
And I'm a beast too complex for human-like minds
And you're scared what you truly will find
Is I
[Chorus] X 2
I am a space man
I am an alien
I traveled light years
A homosapien
A middle finger for all the cats who hated him
(cause I'm a beast bitch! Gir!)
Invader Zim
[Outro]
Big ups to Childish Gambino
People used to look at me funny
Now they can't stop watching, right?
Grr
