Ted Talk

[Intro]

The Hang Dynasty

[Verse]

B.o.B, why the fuck you say the earth was flat?

I mean you threw your whole career away and than just fade to black?

You just gon' disappear and not address the elephant?

Man get back to the elements, this new shit irrelevant

I mean you ain't even gotta ask, you already know

I came across some information and I wanted to show

I went to Twitter with a picture thinking niggas would get it

And then Complex wrote a article to try to embarrass us

If I knew this shit was gon' blow up and ruffle these feathеrs

I would've kept it to myself, gavе Eric Dubay the credit

Astronauts was talking shit like they was tryna pull up

I took a step than looked around the world was angry as fuck

I mean bro, we could've played it off like it was all just a joke

When Stephen Colbert invited us should've went there and spoke

CBS hold all the traction, try to give us a show

But no you turned all of that down 'cause you was tryna be woke

First of all, don't call me woke, I seen the shit that was plotting

They put Neil Tyson on TV to put a mockery of it, yo

These shows be owned by Viacom and they friends

Why would I walk into the lion's den, sit and pretend

Like they ain't threatened by my mind 'cause I ain't gon' comply

I mean if I said the sky was purple would've that been such a crime

Charlamagne tha God and Lil Duval tried to tarnish my image, could've just gave me a call

The whole music industry was rooting for me to fall

Nigga couldn't even go on tour the venues wouldn't let me perform

I mean you could've quit while you're ahead you ain't have to make Flatline

And a part two? You're just asking for a bad time

You probably shouldn't said all that shit about the holocaust

Well ok, and now the label is conspiracy theorist, comma, antisemitic

Well they protesting shows, colleges canceling shows

Radio stations boycotting and then they just pulled all my songs

I ain't mean to 'fend my fans I was just asking questions

So many people in my ear, under all types of pressure

Even bla- niggas was mad at me for questioning slavery

The Root Magazine told lies on me flagrantly

Bill Nye, Tucker Carlson said you don't even science

How the fuck you gon' smack me built like Joe Byron

Tiff, all I asked was why I never seen the slave ship

And they turned it into "B.o.B said slavery don't exist"

Yo, they had NASA in my shows, passing out flyers

CNN sent undercover cops just to inquire

[Outro]

That's that TED talk

Oompa loompa gobledy goop

I pulled up and then I just left with your Swoope

Oompa loompa gobledy goop

This is what happen when you try to name, snort cocaine
