Lyrics

Bootstrap Paradox

[Chorus]

Yea yea yea

Oh 'cause what you had said?

Oh yea

What you had said?

'Cause why? What?

'Cause what you had said?

[Verse 1]

What-What-

What you had said

Thought I was faking

Thought I was fed

Thought I was sent here

'Cause I wasn't dead

Thought I was pandering

'Cause that's what you said

Strangers was pulling up

To my address

Like how the fuck did I get into this mess

I'm no entertainer I said what I said

Bitch I oblige

I can't decide

Who cut the bigger check

Alabama or the Tide

I ain't picking sides

[Pre-Chorus]

Why you delete all yo Instagram posts?

Shit a nigga was tired

You act like the king of the jungle

But see cheetahs they always bе lying

I'm bout to roll up a cone

Smoke me somе weed that's never been grown

I'm high a bitch goddammit I'm gone

Shit I'm higher than no man has gone

[Verse 2]

They say the real ones are dead or in jail

That's so disrespectful I'm standing right here

You smoking synthetic you bozo as hell

She soda the vibe I'm so to the left

I go ape

I go monkey

Catalog big as One Piece

Bogart the weed Humphrey

Who that bitch wit the dumpy?

Wait, I can't get distracted by the dumplings

I got a task that I'm accomplishing

I don't really brag bout my accomplishments

But it's time I establish my dominance

[Bridge]

Sup fool

Sup fool

Sup fool

Sup fool

Sup fool

Sup fool

[Verse 3]

Hundred of nigga is waiting

Hundred of nigga is waiting

Hundred of nigga is waiting

Hundred of nigga is waiting for yo motherfucking call and they all talking shit about you right now

Hundred of nigga is waiting

Hundred of nigga be patient

Nigga be talking bout demon

Shit I promise you nigga I'm Satan

I promise you

I promise you

I promise you

[Verse 4]

Why would I come on yo show

For that bullshit I promise I ain't wit debating

Stacking Ciabatta

Um scrabble ya omelet

I ain't no amateur

Don't need no compliments

Don't sweat the consequence

My enemies cuddle

I'm like why all the hate I'm befuddled

Fuck fuck fuck

Fuck fuck fuck

Buff nigga

Trust anything but nigga

Who can see me ain't a such nigga

Pass the Jay Electron nigga

Bitch I got properties in Decatur

I get under they skin exfoliator

I landed on earth

Explosions craters

Wit explosive anger

An outspoken nature

Um

I'm the original Him

My flows are like biblical hymns

You my identical twin

I went so far in the future

I'm back where creation begins

[Outro]

It's about time

I piss the whole world off again

But what is time but a construct

I come back around like nunchucks
