Lyrics
[Intro]
I don’t smile, I don’t frown, get too up or get too down (Nah)
I was here, so were you, you came and went, I stuck around (Yeah)
Still here now, stop me how? Your opinion’s like a broken calculator
That s*** doesn’t count
Shut your motherf***in’ mouth
[Chorus]
I’m emptyin’ (I’m emptyin’) my book of rhymes (My book of rhymes)
Get ’em all off my pad, every thought that I had
I said I’m emptyin’ (I’m emptyin’) my book of rhymes (My book of rhymes)
Get ’em all off my pad (Yeah), every thought that I had (I’m eastside)
[Verse 1]
Haven’t used all the tricks I have, so like my balls, I’m in my bag (My bag)
Get a littlе teste when I’m mad (I’m mad), sick of wrеstling this iPad (iPad)
Unsuccessfully, I might add (Might add)
And I know it’s best to leave it lie
But even I get obsessed with reading everything
And let it get the best of me ’til I snap (’Til I snap)
But I need to get off the internet (Get off the internet)
I need to get on the mic (Get on the mic)
You need to get off the internet (Internet)
You need to get you a life
Why you waste time just to comment on s***? (Comment on s***)
Especially s*** you don’t like (S*** you don’t like)
Don’t like it, don’t listen, but don’t tell me ’bout your favorite rapper rippin’ some s*** he didn’t write (S*** he didn’t write)
What happened to Slim? He was no cap with the pen
He used to rap like the people his music was for
He was exactly like them
The dude who used to be poor, why can’t he tap into him?
Can’t use that excuse anymore
He’s mad at the wind, he’s in a nuclear war
With a cloud, he’s yellin’ at it again
I talked to your mother, she told me she loved me
All she wanna do is just hold me and hug me
Wants nobody but me, she showed me the Dougie
Can I get a witness like notary public? (Preach)
She said, “Kick some fly s***“ (Fly s***)
I said, “I got wings on my a**“ (Wings on my a**)
Told her my dick’s a cockpit (Dick’s a cockpit)
I fly by the seat of my pants (Seat of my pants)
Sinful thoughts, this beat is crazy, this s***’s retarded
This instru’s mental (This instru’s mental) to mini-bars, incidental charges
When did it start? I been cold-hearted in this heart since kindergarten
Mental sharpness which makes Slim a walking dentist office, b****, I invented flossin’
Yeah, I used to wonder (I used to wonder) where my next meal’s gonna come from (Meal’s gonna come from)
Now, I just wonder (Now I just wonder) where my next mill’s gonna come from (Mill’s gonna come from)
I cannot have no success (Have no success), unless when I finally make it (Finally make it)
I get to remind all the haters (Remind all the haters) who s****ed on me when I’m on my way up (I’m on my way)
My floor is y’all fool’s ceilings
If I was you, I would step or find yourself twisted
That’s how you’ll wind up like spiral stairs
I will swear on a stack of Bibles
I will tear new behinds out of rivals, even your idols, I don’t care
It’s Music to Be Murdered By, so Bon Iver can swallow a f***in’ Ja Rule bobblehead
And die slow like Alzheimer’s (Ha-ha)
Lone sniper, I hold a microphone like a loaded rifle
My dome’s brighter, all I spit from my skull’s fire
All that’s missing’s a motorcycle with the chrome wires, spoke tires
And y’all are flow biters, so I don’t gotta
Explain why they call me your ghostwriter
[Verse 2]
Haven’t used all the tricks I have, so like my balls, it’s in my bag
I tend to get a little testy when I’m mad
But gift of gab and pen to pad turn temper tantrums into anthems
Put lips to a** and kiss the cracks, spit your d***edest
You’re still gonna hit the canvas
Rippin’ rappers, veterans to whippersnappers
Mr. Mathers is killin’ this s***, villainous wit with scant less
Syllables rip the planet, biblical s***’s finna hit the fan
Anybody wanna go tit for tat’s gonna get hit with that
Then the amygdala hippocampus is gonna trigger the ignoramus
To think of the most ridiculous s*** to spit then
Pit it against these pitiful rappers
Insidious, these idiots wittiest s*** against me s****y as MC Hammer’s
Get your whole squad, send a task force in
If you want it, you’re ’bout to get what you asked for then
I owe to my motor mouth
This is my note to self
Sometimes you’re gonna bomb
So you just might have to blow yourself up with no one’s help
I just wrote it down in my book of rhymes
Preemo, take us
