[Verse 1]
A rose by any other name is just as sweet
--- But what about a human?
Yeah it sucks to be any kid who has a name that isn’t typical
Every day I think about how they won’t adjust to me
That’s the tea
I’m really quite forgiven but I have to speak
Cuz I never ever get 'em to address the beef
Yeah I really got a limit I ain’t Master P
So pronounce my name
These pricks give a quick nickname straight outta the blue
If I had to assume I’d say "That is some bull"
They be thinking they be makin' it more palatable
I be livid but it doesn’t even matter to you
I say how do you you do?
-- And you could be a wonderful dude
But if I give my moniker
You make a hullabaloo
You’ll be black and some blue
My language will be colorful too
[Chorus]
That’s my name don’t wear it out
Get yo pen you can go spell it out
While I sip champagne
Kiss my bae and
I fix my mane
Then I go sweat it out x2
Say my name say my name
When everyone’s around you
Say my name say my name
When everyone’s around you x2
Verse 2
They wanna ask us, what’s in a name?
It's too ethnic -- it risks all your fame
They don’t like puttin’ chips in the game
But I won’t crack look at Ms. Sidibe
It ain’t a a RPG
Where you make my name up
If it’s hard to say
Then you should train your brain bruh
Don’t be a weirdo...
If have a doubt
Don’t be a hero
-- sound it out!
Unless you are an idiot
Never ever deviate
Read what you see on the screen w/ my EPK
Never cheat or abbreviate
Seek to alleviate stress
Just as
But then if I repeated it
And you can’t repeat it back no offense but no mas
Cuz I ain’t Mr. feeny teaching
Reading comprehension kid I want cash -- plus tax
Chorus
That’s my name don’t wear it out
Get yo pen you can go go Spell it out
While I sip champagne kiss my bae and
I fix my mane then I go sweat it out
