Lyrics
[Hook: MC Chris] I am the awesome You see me flossin', watch me walk upon your face Make that incision I leave you itchin' just to join my monster race Say I'm just messin' Yea well I'm pissed and I can keep an even key You think you know me But you can blow me cause you don't know how I feel [Verse 1: Childish Gambino] It's Childish Gambino, ho What you know about that? Niggas 'fraid to go outside, they some house cats Cause if they see me, they might have to act right I'm livin' life right, like I got a past life Boy I got a flashlight Check my fuckin' hoodie skin Like God was makin' light and threw my hoodie in Bambi, naw nigga that's my pseudonym Call me Elroy Nigga we some hooligans And just in case, I keep a million in the glove box Blast this shit from in your car to make the hood rock Ice cold, bright colors, like a juice pop And if you try to touch my shit I'll make your juice pop Yes I get a two spot just for fuckin' showin' up Boy it's me, T.N.T., boy I'm blowin' up Nigga throw it up Boy, I am the awesome Call me Elroy Or Mr. "Hey, how much it cost him" [Hook: MC Chris] I am the awesome You see me flossin', watch me walk upon your face Make that incision I leave you itchin' just to join my monster race Say I'm just messin' Yea well I'm pissed and I can keep an even key You think you know me But you can blow me cause you don't know how I feel [Verse 2: MC Chris] Okay! Rackin' 'em, stackin' 'em, packin' these ballers Bleedin' These hoes I carve ‘em with a big carver Stiff Like Barbara's I pack a punch like a bunch of starbursts Back up ma, let me celebrate your suit Like five toes cuz you gonna get the boot Like five guys cuz you're gonna get the boot Underground sound I reiterate “Roots” what the minute men lose, what the little man grew, his crew while they wrestle in the nude, can’t handle the truth, I prefer my own coop With my hand on the mic and my mind on the move Cryin’-on-The-View, Ridin' the wave, I'ma take a step that you bothered to save I can get crunk in a couple of ways [Hook: MC Chris] I am the awesome You see me flossin', watch me walk upon your face Make that incision I leave you itchin' just to join my monster race Say I'm just messin' Yea well I'm pissed and I can keep an even key You think you know me But you can blow me cause you don't know how I feel
