Originally titled “General Lee”, the song has been renamed to “Generally” because, as Scuare has previously stated, he regrets naming it that way. Scuare mentions in his interview with Scratched Vinyl, the original and current title of the song comes from the fact that he says the word “generally” f...
[Intro]
I really need it
I need it, ayy
I really need It
Rat-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta
[Hook]
I need a local anesthetic
Nah, forget it
I'ma let it run free, free, free
And I don't understand the reason that I lead
Because I'm generally-ly
A little better at
Being what I've been before
Why am I bending for? You
Being what I've been before
Why am I bending for? You
(Rat-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta)
[Verse 1]
I'm at the point where every positive comment
Feels like a Grammy nomination
Stop with the hating, on to the next one
Concentration, calm for the entrance
No medication, y'all gonna catch one
Sick with the ratings, down with the lessons
They may not like me, that's alright, I never liked myself
They may not like me, that's alright, I never liked myself
They may not like me, that's alright, I never liked myself
They may not like me, that's alright, I never liked myself
They may not like me, that's alright, I never liked myself
Yo, check the sky right above us
Give 'em what they want and they will love us, love us, love us
No one gives a fuck about a diamond in the rough
When you can buy that kind of stuff
That keep you shining long enough
To get away, so get your hand right out your ass
And keep that trance
Peace at last
Is all I need
What's it gonna be, when they convince me to stop?
No, when I get this stuff
No, When I get these, stop
No, wanna be another victim or a bitch
This just to piss me off
(Rat-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta)
[Hook]
I need a local anesthetic
Nah, forget it
I'ma let it run free, free, free
And I don't understand the reason that I lead
Because I'm generally-ly
A little better at
Being what I've been before
Why am I bending for? You
Being what I've been before
Why am I bending for? You (Look)
(Rat-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta)
Why am I bending for you? (Yeah, check it)
[Verse 2]
Some people love it when this life is easy, eyes glued to TVs
These high school type IQs, they're right through the 3D
A carousel of circles spinning faster than a CD
I stick to Scuare tactics in the hopes that it could free me
They wonder how I wander around
Like nothing really brings me down
Can't see me now but feel these sounds
That we be bumping through these towns
And you be around us, glad you found us
Too many up for you to counter
I get it when they not now
Feel it when I'm right
But really what I got I'm proud of
So if you feel me, put your hands up in the air
And if you don't, I guess that's fair
But hold your peace 'cause I don't care
So if you feel me, put your hands up in the air
And if you don't, I guess that's fair
But fuck your couch, bitch
[Bridge]
I guess this part of the song
That I'm supposed to say shit like
"What's up? What's happening? How you doing?
"Put your foot to the left and put your knees to the right
And give you instructions to dance all night"
(Rat-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta)
[Hook]
I need a local anesthetic
Nah, forget it
I'ma let it run free, free, free
And I don't understand the reason that I lead
Because I'm generally-ly
A little better at
Being what I've been before (I don't, I don't know)
Why am I bending for? You (I'm just talking out my ass now)
Being what I've been before ([?])
Why am I bending for? You (Never thought I could understand what I'm trying to say)
(I'm just putting out what I want, you know?)
