(Intro)
Yeah
Hot diggity dog
Slothface
In the house
Yeah, we on some deep personal struggle sh**, you know what it's all about
[Verse 1: Dratchface]
I had a breakdown a little while ago
Pain and paranoia, I'm a child of both
And when I was a child, I was a pile of dough
Reviled by most of my peers, and admired at home
Now I'm a grown-a** man with grown aspirations
And I'm afraid I don't have the patience for dramatizations
I get knocked down and picked back up by the same people
‘Cause we ain't equal, but they're just tryna prepare me
‘Cause the world is scary, and it ain't fair neither
Either you be the people they need or you'll be beleaguered
When you try to be what you visualized when you were little
A kid from the middle cla** who wanted mics to feel his spittle
I knew I was a vessel for humor when I saw a Carlin special at age 10
And when he said the word “co*ks**er” I was shocked
And the first time I ever heard the word “f**”
Was out of my own mouth in front of my mom
‘Cause I had seen it written upon a piece of playground equipment
In nail polish, so mom got some acetone to strip it
Ever since then I been kickin it
A delinquent unticketed, in a field unpicketed
Quicker than wind, I could relate a tale
Of how a lifetime of scrutiny has turned me into a betamale
I been teased, kicked, chased, driven insane by these wastes of space
No wonder I can't talk to a girl face-to-face
I never have been able to
And when you got no self esteem, kids are quick to label you
But kids are gonna do what they will do, if that ain't the truth
I don't know what is, but I do know this
You can't be careless, growing up means gaining self-awareness
Or you're gonna be embarra**ed in retrospect
But even then you know you've grown
But don't worry, if you don't wanna, you won't, uh huh
Yeah, but we all gotta get old sometime, you know what I'm sayin'?
Aight, Dratchface, peace
