Dummies
[Intro]
We in a different time now, bro
Man, we all gotta do our part, man
One of the most valuable things you can offer is your words
We gotta feed the old, the young and everybody in between
(Woooooo!)

[Chorus]
Uh, these n***as be hatin' on the low
I just play it cool and confident, they would never know
My intelligence is the weapon I use on ’em first
It take a smart man to the play the fool and the rules don't reverse, mmh

[Verse]
Dummies could never play me (never)
One of the best of my generation but media hate me
N***a we grew up on Weezy F. Baby, Lupe and Jay-Z
That mean I shoot you, say miss, excuse me
Get her in tune and off The Cool, kick push to your old lady, yeah (heheh)
Abi, don't call ’em what they isn't
They move the goal post for certain n***as, they not official
I know some snorters and sugar daddies that's politicians
I know some corner boys that could die tryna pay tuition
Now is you mad 'cause my wallet, my woman, or complexion?
Life could be easy, but it's never simple
And it take a real live real n***a to tell the difference
Uh, what do it take be a gangsta?
'Cause young boys on opioids never felt much, yeah
They chasin' money 'til they taste blood
Now ten year old Makyiah dead ’cause y’all ain't think enough
Now the city is prayin’, postin' her picture up
And every time I see 'em, I shed a tear and get really numb
'Cause y’all dare rumble, and y'all don't wanna squash it
And now we here, it's two parents buryin' their only daughter
Uh, how could you kill a child when
One of the codes of the streets was keepin' 'em from that violence?
It's deeper than y'all beefin', them people be out for us
If we killin' our people then we become powerless
Uh, excuse me, I got too deep
I just signed a contract and now my conscience only think free
And you can save your props for somebody that care what you think
I been skatin' a while, why you try to Kerrigan? Please
I'm 'bout to embarrass n***as, I feel that have carried me
This industry very cold but it look to you very sweet
Put n***as on big stages, put n***as in little beefs
You put too much faith in it, it puts you in therapy
