Please Listen (Ode to Smug gums)

[Verse 1]

Institutionalized
That’s the name of the disguise
Subtract they eyes, from the lies
That’s where the real truth lies
They devised, the demise
By separate and divide
Fry em chicken and fries
And let em die unwise
By the bye
Or insert the “u”
Let em use the strong mules to sell 20 year old shoes
Feeding and teaching this new black consumer attitude
They’ll blindly support no matter what you do
Unless it’s a viral pic
Cause you know they don’t read
Spreading mindless entertainment that’s their new disease
Blind to the sublime, only the surface they see
Only time they galvanized is when the Greeks started to tweet
But they don’t truly understand the power that they possess
1-T in ‘15
Yes, T nigga, Yes
That’s why we acquiesce
During their little protests
Cause they gonna want to impress with that dress from Express
Cause if a nigga really want it then a nigga gotta have it
Don’t know shit about no money got these bad spending habits
While they totally disregarding they socioeconomic status
They just trying to mask the pain left behind by they Daddy
Looky, looky, looky
Look at me
Baby on IG
Showing her lips and titties
Seeking validation from flirtation
Admiration, tabulations
Punctuated confirmation
Of her liberated reputation

[Hook]

You don’t want to hear what I’m saying
You just want to bob your head
But I’m asking you to just
(Please Listen)
I ain’t asking you to take no stand
Just help you understand
But you gotta gotta
(Please Listen)
No mistake that you pressed play
Just to get away
Now you need to just go ahead a
(Please Listen)
You sleep in
Everyday
It’s time to rise and awake
So just gon' head a
(Please Listen)

But I know you wanna to get down
With some bass that’s kicking real loud
And a beat that straight slappin’ now
So ya straps stay a clappin’ now

They wanna give ya boy a muzzle now
I’m the solution to the puzzle now
And I’m a shout the answer real loud
I’m a shout the answer real loud

[Verse 2]

Why ya’ll niggas wanna
Plot, thots
I’m the nigga that
Brought, thoughts
Back to
Hip, hop
I’m the light skinned
Tu-pac
Cause I give it to you
Straight no chaser
Indiana Pacer
Recap in the palace
Give straight to your face, sir
Stance never wavers
Rap game appraiser
Doing ya’ll a favor
By talking bout more than paper
But ya’ll don’t really want it
Yall don’t really feel this shit
Only way I’m speaking to you is if these speakers hit
Ya’ll don’t wanna submit
To the tips, when I spit
Back word flipping
I guess it’s my time to emit
Half-part, half-trap
Where ya pals, got slap
For playing tag, with the gat
And keeping stat, on they tats
Hood all star
I don’t fuck with no rats
Ya’ll niggas sub-par
Back of the bus with your rap
Wanting dap for your pad
Bout your garb you wanna brag
Lyrics is in a shit-bag
You ain't got the gift of gab
Duck, you talk a lot of shit for this to be your debut
Yall clamping up the culture
Concepts is test tubed
Bringing doom to ya mood
Cause I’m a wolf with the flow
Etymology wonk
Nigga, now you know
Wordplay, metaphors, killing ya’ll something crucial
Laser focus, no slipup, when I’m schooling my pupils

[Hook]

[Outro]

Hey Yo
Yo, Yo
I killed that bitch
And I know some of ya’ll played it and ya'll ain’t even get it the first time
So ya'll need to just gon' ahead
Hit rewind
And play that muthafucka back
But this time my nigga
(Please Listen Carefully)
