[Verse 1]
New watch, same wrist
New phone, who dis?
Same laugh, new bits
Old me with that same schtick
I haven't made it, I'm tryin', ooh
If I am lyin' I'm fryin', ooh
Need my inhaler, I'm dyin', ooh
I got the heart of a lion
Sippin' La Croix, spittin' new bars
Sittin' on money, drive the same car
Started from the bottom but haven't gone far
Checking your belt like this song is a TARDIS
Call off the fire department
Peep, this a fire I started
Callin' pizza 'cause I'm starvin
Need a genie in a carpet
[Chorus]
What am I saying? What am I doing?
Why am I playing? Who am I fooling?
I went to college but my rhymes are stupid
In love with the game, no need for a Cupid
It ain't November but I'm going ham
Forget Aloe Blacc, I am the man
If I'm Eminem, then I'm on stan
Y'all plain potatoes but I am a yam
[Post-Chorus]
I am a yam, I am a yam, I am a yam, I am a yam
I am a yam, I am a yam, I am a yam, I am a yam
I am a yam, I am a yam, I am a yam, I am a yam
I am a yam, I am a yam, I am a yam, I am a yam
[Verse 2]
New year, same plan
Talk crap, catch hands
Glowed up, new man
Out here like an alien
This ain't what I envisioned, ooh
I am a man on a mission, ooh
God is still making provision, ooh
Aunt Becky don’t pay my tuition
Paintin' the plane as it flies
Lost and I'm wonderin' why
I went bankrupt like twice
Now I got money, it's nice
Black boy swimmin' upstream
New face but the crop of the cream
Still on an ultralight beam
I don't sleep 'cause I'm living my dream
[Chorus]
What am I saying? What am I doing?
Why am I playing? Who am I fooling?
I went to college but my rhymes are stupid
In love with the game, no need for a Cupid
It ain't November but I'm going ham
Forget Aloe Blacc, I am the man
If I'm Eminem, then I'm on stan
Y'all plain potatoes but I am a yam
[Post-Chorus]
I am a yam, I am a yam, I am a yam, I am a yam
I am a yam, I am a yam, I am a yam, I am a yam
I am a yam, I am a yam, I am a yam, I am a yam
I am a yam, I am a yam, I am a yam, I am a yam
[Verse 3]
Talk low, thoughts loud
High-key, lowbrow
Like Mike, bow-wow
Went viral, people asked how
Maybe I'm good
Maybe I'm all the talent that I should
Maybe I'm making it up on the spot
Maybe I'm everything that you're not
I got issues, they need tissues
Thought I was past this, I need practice
I got Lasik, don't need glasses
School of hard knocks, passed the classes
Took things slow, low molasses
Missed my dad in them greener grasses
Saw the light, no Damascus
But I digress, acquiesce this
I am a yam
[Post-Chorus]
I am a yam, I am a yam, I am a yam, I am a yam
I am a yam, I am a yam, I am a yam, I am a yam
I am a yam, I am a yam, I am a yam, I am a yam
I am a yam, I am a yam, I am a yam, I am a yam
[Outro]
I am a yam, I am a yam
I am a yam, yam, yam
It's 'cause I'm brown on the outside and sweet on the inside, get it?
