Like Me a Lot

[Chorus]

You might not like me a lot

You might not like me a lot

But you gon’ love me when I tell you shit get real

You might not like me a lot

You might not like me a lot

But you gon’ love me when I tell you shit get real

Might say shit that you don't like like like

Might tell you a joke not a lie lie lie

Get real

You might not like me a lot

You might not like me a lot

But you gon’ love me when I tell you shit that's real

Well I guess I started somеthing

Too soon to be triumphant

Cause the livеs I've changed is humbling

If you give them something it's not hustling

[Verse 1: B.o.B]

Shit that's real

Tell me how it feel when you gotta pimp your own race

If I was worried back the backlash

I woulda never said half of the shit I say

On the mic I'm Tyson

Boy you should kneel and your nephew should be ashamed

Were you really tryna educate?

Or tear another brother down on the world stage

I heard I need protection, from who?

Only thing I shoulda been shielded from was you

But a lesson well learned in how predators think

"Someone will take advantage of you might as well be me"

Be glad when you know who the vampires is

Be more worried about the niggas that you don't know yet

'Cause a system cannot fail those individuals

That it was never meant to protect

You might say I'm paranoid

Might not like the way that I talk

But why so many blogs?

Why I keep getting stalked?

Why do I get harassed?

Why I keep getting calls?

[Chorus]

You might not like me a lot

You might not like me a lot

But you gon’ love me when I tell you shit get real

You might not like me a lot

You might not like me a lot

But you gon’ love me when I tell you shit get real

Might say shit that you don't like like like

Might tell you a joke not a lie lie lie

Get real

You might not like me a lot

You might not like me a lot

But you gon love me when I tell you shit that's real

Well I guess I started something

Too soon to be triumphant

Cause the lives I've changed is humbling

If you give them something it's not hustling

[Interlude: Roderick Usher]

“When Iife hands you lemons…”

“Make lemonade?”

“No. First you roll out a multimedia campaign to convince people lemons are incredibly scarce

Which only works if you stockpile lemons, control the supply

Then, you write a line of genetic code that makes lemons look just a little more like tits

And you get a gene patent for the tit-lemon DNA sequence

You cross pollinate, you get those seeds circulating in the wild

And then you sue the farmers for copyright infringement when that genetic code shows up on their land

Sit back, rake in the millions

And then when you're done and you've sold your Lempire for a few billion dollars, then, and only then

You make some fucking lemonade”

[Outro]

Lemons don't make lemonade

Lemons make grenades

Lemons don't make lemonade

Lemons make grenades

Lemons don't make lemonade

Lemons make grenades

Lemons don't make lemonade

Lemons make grenades
