I got the dynamo of volition
The p-pole position
Automatic transmission
With lo-ow emissions
I'm a brand new addition to the old edition
With a love unconditional
I'm a drama abolition
There's damn no opposition to my proposition
Half of a man, half magician, half a politician
Holdin' the mic like ammunition
And my vision is as simple as light
Ain't no reason we should be in a fight
No demolition, get to vote to get to say what you like
Procreation, composition already written by itself
Singin' heck, it's for the people not believin' in gosh
Good God, get 'em up way high
Gimme, gimme that high five
Good times, get 'em way down low
Gimme, gimme that low do
Good God, bring 'em back again
Gimme, gimme that high ten
You're the best definition of good intentions
Will you answer a call if you do not know who is callin'?
I guess the whole point of it all is that we never know really
We're tryin' to keep with the Joneses
Like waiting for Guns N' Roses
To finish, but we all suppose it's the shit, so silly
(Whoa) That shit's so silly
(Whoa, whoa, whoa) That shit's so silly
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba, that's so silly
Oh, fist knock, bumpin' and wrist lock
Twistin' up a Rizla
Kid Icarus on the transistor
Nintendo givin' me the blister
I bend over, take it in the kisser
Best friends are hittin' on my sister
Try to tell 'em that they still a wisher
'Cause she already got herself a mister
And besides, that's gross, don't wanna diss her
Di-di-di-di-di-didn't I say that shit's so silly?
I do not keep up with statistics
I do not sleep without a mistress
I do not eat unless it's fixed with some kind of sweet like a licorice
My home is deep inside the mystics
I'm known to keep diggin' on existence
I'm holdin' in the heat like a fish stick
My phone, it beeps because I missed it
I do not answer the call when
Do not know who you are then
Makin' no sense of it all
Say, can I get a witness?
I'm only a boy in a story
Just a hallucinatory
Trippin' on nothin' there is, livin' in the wilderness
Tigers spot on my back, livin' life of a cat
I just wanna relax here and write another rap tune
Drivin' off on a blind man's bike
I can say just what I like
Oh, nothin' can stop you
Good job, get 'em up way high
Gimme, gimme that high five
Good times, get 'em way down low
Gimme, gimme that low do
Good God, bring 'em back again
Gimme, gimme that high ten
You're the best definition of good intentions
