A+ and I’m skippin’ the lecture
I wrote a new textbook for the critics to measure
We’re about to take a field trip kids
I’m’a show you how to rob a bank full’a meal tickets
‘Cos standouts don’t get the handouts
Less fans than foes wanna take my band down
I can’t have that, I fired the professor
Financed the record hotwirin’ Vespas

A good lookin’ thief, best believe it

‘Round here wheels don’t turn unless ya steal’em
It’s the best in show, brand new, and appealin’
Brought the house music down along with the ceilin’
Good press, bad press hate alike
Whatever ya do, just make sure you get my name right
You’re A&R couldn’t see me in plain sight
Spelled it out and still couldn’t get my name right

T-O-U-S-S-A-I-N-T
M-O-R-R-I-S-O-N
The emcee that ain’t so emcee
One fifth The Blend to represent
The front man of this punk rock band
I don’t drop grands.
Homie, I drop rent
Collections been callin’ me
So I’m collectin’- gimme all the beats.

It’s the too deep thinkin’, blitzin’ pre-drinkin’
Fashionably always late a free-speakin’
Heart-stopper, dream-killer, the ship-sinker
Crewed up with flame-throwers and hip-swingers
I’m givin’ it as much as I can take it,
And smilin’ as hard as you can fake it
Swingin’ first before aimin’
And I’m takin’ off without the spaceship

Can’t float if ya can’t lift the anchor
Ditch the ball and chain and ya just might make it
Can’t sing it if ya ain’ gone bring it
Posin’ like a pendulum, but ya ain’t swingin’
I pull it off without the pliers
I’m comin’ for the title with the eye of a liger
Ya got alotta gusto comin’ back here
So drink it slow, homie that’s your last beer

I’ll settle this one how I see it
Your goon pound’s thru- goin’ down like GM
The style flexes AM to PM
9 to 5 slaves lookin’ at me like freedom
Yeah, it’s just another day above pavement
For the piece of the puzzle that wouldn’t fit where it’s vacant
The name stays but the face differs
Yesterday was yesterday, ma. I’m a shape shifter

Identity thief for good reason
You’re a fan of the mask, but ya hate what’s beneath it
First-Class Academy of the Chameleons
I dig you too, but your style ain’t worth stealin’
Most’a y’all done lost the cause
Now I’m aimin’ at you and your bosses boss
Who done it? Colonel Mustard
From the clock tower with the sniper rifle, cousin.

Back for the first time ‘cos I never left
I was kickin’ it with Jay-Z and Brett Favre
You can quit the game, but the game don’t rest
And I put that on a MarioKart Star and headstart
Chill. Your name never got brought up
You’re just the antacid. I’m the whole enchilada.
The dream continues, ya can’t stop it
I’m walkin’ with the ghost of Malcolm X and Steve Rogers

Ma, while ya can- enjoy it
And what ya tone. I ain’t ya boyfriend.
Got my name out ya mouth like a rough drink
Sweatin’ me like wedding-day groom cufflinks
Now, while I’m waitin’ for the caffeine to wear off
I got a few moral dilemmas to take care of
Evil and easy, I got’em paired up
And poppin’ like Oxycontin and snare drums
