Open Mike Eagle - No Selling (Uncle Butch Pretends It Don’t Hurt) lyrics

[Intro] Ahh Ow Uh Yeah Yeah, yeah [Verse 1: Open Mike Eagle] I got a keep a facade I got a play it cool Like when you with a girl and she go away to school Gonna get a leather shirt, my stomach never hurts Strong face, strong jaw, shown through my competitors I tear my ACL, and wouldn’t even limp I keep my head up high, so I can read the blimps Don’t even scream if something hot burns my finger tips I just wait a couple seconds then I reattempt Had a weird childhood, my sh** was wild hood But crying ain’t my style cause I can smile good I don’t take sh** personal, I don’t get jealous You can leave my name off, you can misspell it I ain’t with yelling I ain’t even mad I ain’t screaming, catching feelings, and breathing bad, yeah My favorite phrase is “so what?” I’m stone-cut, I’m bad to the bone, no need to blow up Calm before the storm or something I ain’t cried since ’94 or something [Chorus: Open Mike Eagle] My legs tired cause I been running things That sh** is exhausting, I’m in a ton of pain But I’m no selling, I’m no selling, I’m no selling, I’m no selling Tryna write fire, my pen full of flame That sh** burned my hand, I’m in a ton of pain But I’m no selling, I’m no selling, I’m no selling, I’m no selling [Verse 2: Open Mike Eagle] I won’t sweat it, it happened to brothers every year I hit my thumb with a hammer and wouldn’t shed a tear, yeah Still waters, I’m running real deep Airplane hit turbulence, sh**, I’m still ‘sleep I hit my knee on the bed corner and run a sprint I cried once, but haven’t for every summer since For those of you that’s doubting, I take it that far I had an asthma attack during the last bar [Chorus: Open Mike Eagle] My legs tired cause I been running things That sh** is exhausting, I’m in a ton of pain But I’m no selling, I’m no selling, I’m no selling, I’m no selling Tryna write fire, my pen full of flame That sh** burned my hand, I’m in a ton of pain But I’m no selling, I’m no selling, I’m no selling, I’m no selling [Verse 3: Open Mike Eagle] You ain’t coming then send a note That sh** get to me, I pretend it don’t I gotta keep a facade I gotta play it cool Like when you with a girl and she away in school Gonna get a leather shirt, my stomach never hurts Strong face, strong jaw, shown through my competitors It ain’t me in this spot, wishing it could’ve been The homie got that sh**, well f**ing good for him [Outro] That part Right there
