[Verse 1: Johnny Venus] Spent a hundred twenty G's for a piece of paper And a piece of mind I swore I could have found and I find that These institutions designed for the uplifting But got me caged up Mama bragging to her friends, yeah my baby's on the way now Too behind to get some a, turned into some pay, any day, now But I play, now that I ain't got fact checked in years Never had to learn much, but ain't gripped the wheels in years And for that, I take a quiz on, kind of hard to study facts When you know exactly how it is at home Only job is keep kids who gon' be jobless in a couple years With some loans up to their ears So I got to split time between mastermind And doing these itty-bitty medial assignments Call home like, "What the time is?" I've been working for three, almost four How much longer can y'all go? Plus my mans just passed so this can't be life I'm looking at my hand like, "Yo this can't be right" But, we on fire at night like the sun in the dark Flipped the sheet, loose leafed to a future that be way too bright You done ran into some niggas who be way too, way too right [Chorus: Johnny Venus] And where I'm from, yeah, they ask me I tell them Westside like Gatsby And where I'm from, yeah, they ask me I tell them Westside like Gatsby [Verse 2: Doctur Dot] Uh Underneath the moon, 2002, I think it was June I'm riding around, spitting lyrics 'till my Billy's just a kid But even then, authenticated my spirit to designated And then, Angels told me they were coming I'm under the assumption most niggas on stage in black face So I keep mine as clean as I can muster I must have seen the same act a hundred times Circums ruin punch lines and similar album covers Don't call us conscious, 'cause we'll knock the fuck out Try to lock us up i boxes 'cause they worried about our sound And the word around town, the doctor's on medication And that nigga Johnny Venus only fucking with caucasians Crazy how these rumors only make us more crazy And these shady ass niggas only make us more amazing Jason, like nanny nanny blew twice, the future looking too bright Might need to buy some new eyes 'cause if I continue, blind You fools gon' need some new minds, I'll eat your girl in two bites You cupped her like some blue lights, time wasted in thee She on your couch, telling you her dreams She in my bed, struggling to breathe And that's the difference between You rap ducks and the dragon with some wings I never have to worry about a thing when I function [Refrain: Doctur Dot] Now all of them do music, humping and drug consumption Consumption, consumption, consumption Now all of them do music, humping and drug consumption Consumption, consumption, consumption [Chorus: Johnny Venus] And where I'm from, yeah, they ask me I tell them Westside like Gatsby And where I'm from, yeah, they ask me I tell them Westside like Gatsby
