I'M DOPE (NPR MUSIC'S TINY DESK CONCERT)

Most these sheep'll move like clones
That's why I be on my own
My mama thought I was a joke
But Miss Badu told me I
Ohhhhh (everybody say)
Most these sheep'll move like clones (that's why)
That's why I be on my own (my momma)
My mama thought I was a joke
But Miss Badu told me I'm dope
Yeah, I'm dope
Yeah, yeah, I'm dope
Miss Badu told me I'm

And I know it you can't tell me nothing else
That's why every beat I'm on is water and I'm Michael Phelps
Told my partners get yo bread up
But that dope don't equal wealth
But you can't help all your partners
Unless you done helped yourself
So I need more than kudos than a high-five
Cause I went from sidelines to the limelight
And I shine bright
Ice cold, bars Klondike
And I never moved with the white
This ain't blindside (ugh!)
Finite but you feel the spirit
Whole flow shine like soul glow, every lyric (soul glow)
Skin cocoa so most popo fear it
Nine like Rondo on my clothes when I pivot, ooh

Most these sheep'll move like clones (that's why)
That's why I be on my own (my momma)
My mama thought I was a joke (she-thought-I-was-a-joke)
But Dave Chapelle told me I'm dope
Yeah, I'm dope
Yeah, yeah, I'm dope
Dave Chappelle told me I'm

(Talk to 'em Dave)
Most these sheep'll move like clones
That's why I be on my own
My mama thought I was a joke
But Miss Badu told me I'm dope
