Doin' Work
• Written by Arkane
I’m bout to go absurd like Amber Heard heard a slur
Bitch didn’t notice that it was her own words
She should put that bottle of vodka back into her purse
You mighta married a pirate but you didn’t have to be the curse
You’re bout to hear something new like when my boy Copern
told the world the sun don’t revolve round the Earth
What happens when the greatest verse ever birthed makes it to the ends of the earth
without ever bein heard?
Well I guess you’re bout to learn
It’s not a mystery why they call me the new misery
Even Stephen king couldn’t dream of these things that I scream when I defeat a beat (hobble)
See these streets only impede the peeps that are asleep or be like sheep
So if your feet aint marching to your own beat you can probably take a seat
You can never take away from me the way I take no heed cause outrage is cheap
and I don’t play unless the stakes favor me savor the flavor of being able to say whatever I may
Shout out to all who came before me that made it this way
stormed the beach endorsed free speech pulled swords faced lords met coroners
I guess I s-s-s-s-struck a nerve
It’s easy when they n-n-never learn
I just hit’em with the verses first (woo)
Then show’em how the chorus works (ye, ye)x2
Now they living on corners watching corner stores
get knocked up like Nadya cause everyone’s poor as dirt
How can it be America first when those who served can’t even afford a shirt?
Most of us don’t stop drinkin even though we don’t know the source of our own thirst
This worlds full of contradictors it makes me kinda sick ta
Hear them tell us how to live then they go get their fix on
They claim to be the winners and say you’re all born sinners
While the pope scrolls through more porn on his little flip phone
Take a sit homes my name’s Chris Hanson
I heard you like dancin’ to kids who insist you call’em lil hacks and
they couldn’t hack it if I gave’m a battleaxe and battle rapped’em with a hatchet
I’m not scared of fake I can see through plastic like 90s fashion
But like a fever dream everything I sing ends up like ICP strung out on pcp echoing through pvc
You can find my tape for free on tv if you shop at QVC or dollar tree
I don’t got a lotta dreams I just hope that nobody bothers me
You smoke a lotta lotta trees (for real)
But your songs gotta gotta breath (you feel?)
You got bottom dollar G’s cause your not on top of deez
(nuts)
You fuckin’ muts x2
I feel like I’m fathering more offspring than Holland
I promise I’m not the citizen you wanna model
But if I gotta hand you a motto fuck the lotto cause money aint power
Like a bear faced with mace they wanna see you run the human race away from fate
Urging you to keep up the pace with the paper chase cause the holler
of the almighty dollar rings louder when you place the latest craze that’s made to
take away your liberties higher than the status of your enemy
Tell’em to bend the knee when they ask for your privacy
I don’t fuck with anyone who lies to me
My vanilla sky aint a dream cause I already do as I please
That’s the only way to hold on to your sanity
Not bothered when I can’t appease and you’ll never have my sympathy
You have to earn respect and that don’t come from lists or greed
They try to act like Mr. Clean and wipe out our whole history
Maybe next time I’ll have to use my fist to sing
