Headphones

This sadkid rap shit's been catnip, packed in with tablets of top shelf acid
Since back when, I was just a black kid, ashy
Who couldn't afford lotion and hated the thought of asking
Catch me clapping in classic fashion for those who thought I'd never hack it
Make some noise, but bet we'll a make racket
Way they jock my sound it made me wish I had a patent
We goin burn it to the ground and stump on top of the ashes
I took some lessons and ran with 'em a marathon mile
Wrote confessions in seconds so we could stare 'em all down
My brothers getting so high up they can't even see the ground
Like wait up, ain't everything better with ol' me around?
Outcast since I got cast out
The class clown made Cash then the KiD cashed out
So act fast if you ask me to sit back down
No way we quit right now, I can't

I can't keep it in my headphones
My soul, bass bumping out the stereo
My heart, beat thumping like a metronome
Jumping out the park Imma let it go
Let it go, let it go, let it go
I can't keep it in my headphones
My soul, bass jumping out the stereo
Stars in my sights, Imma let it go
Let it go, let it go, let it go

Hey, uhh, I'm Rav, the other dude
You looking pretty good
How's your mother doing?
Could you take a step back, please?
I'm uncomfortable
Yeah, that's much better
Thank you
So, what's up with you?
How you been?
You don't mind if i smoke while we talk, right?
Been a grip
Memory blurry as a fog light
Benefits and the curses of the pot life
Bark a whole lot for such a small bite
Nom nom, nom nom
Eat it while i steady deal with my conundrum
Wanna hit my line?
Dial 911
I'm-i'm doing-doing what i-what i want-want
Exo in your headphones
Let's go
So sweet, so close, so special
Still the saddest muthafuckas with the best flows this side of the milky way
Xoxo

I can't keep it in my headphones
My soul, bass bumping out the stereo
My heart, beat thumping like a metronome
Jumping out the park Imma let it go
Let it go, let it go, let it go
I can't keep it in my headphones
My soul, bass jumping out the stereo
Stars in my sights, Imma let it go
Let it go, let it go, let it go

Headphones on my neck
Head-Headphones on my neck
Smokin L's of green
Black on both sides of my chest
Like nothing y'all seen
New danger, cause scenes
Ecstatic, all screams
Can't hear you I'm mos def
Holla if you hear me in yo crazy head
Stop selling us dreams trying to make the bed
Lotta shit get to me
But when taking meds
I'm T'Challa at the movies
You a raisinet
Do not invade the decks
I did not make a clone
I do not take requests
This is your favorite song
Take it wrong
Save it, I've been jaded long
You should take a longer walk
Inside your vacant dome
Yeah you can take a nigga's soul like a Shang Tsung
Then tell his mama it's because his ass was raised wrong
So if you wanna chase the rabbit
I may play along
Only child, earliest, latest born

I can't keep it in my headphones
My soul, bass bumping out the stereo
My heart, beat thumping like a metronome
Jumping out the park Imma let it go
Let it go, let it go, let it go
