lyrics
[intro] there it goes. yeah, you gotta adjust yourself. [indistinguishable] here... is it ok? here, say something. hello, hello? wait, you can hear yourself. good? good, ok. yeah, we're fine. oh... that's not bad! yeah I know! you just need [indistinguishable] that's pretty good. I'm gonna keep all this. it'll be interesting. just... take you on a trip into the mind of... Ash Kay. uhhh 2017, 2nd Street this is a rap I wrote, a few days before Halloween yeah
[1st verse] snowcone, flow as cold as a froyo coming out the spout I'm spouting out my cold flows with the bold quotes, and the old hopes and the told woes that make you go like "oh no!" rearrange the letters realize were in NoHo yeah, so SoHo is no more through my nose hole it’s going through a chokehold but still I’ve got it in a chokehold came to my brain with complacence it remained changed up my ways then I made it pave the way plane is delayed and it’s swaying so astray and this ain’t complaining but it’s taken triple-7 days I’ve got a show whether you show or you don’t show and I’m more at home if I go than if I don’t go but after it’s over I don’t wanna go home I’m feeling sober off all these folks that I don’t know like low key I’m lonely despite my homies got this fake weighted chain so I cry out poor me capable of great change I threw out my old me but he never knew me and the new me doesn’t know me they just wanna sue me and the other ones consume me and I don’t know (what to do see/it's a doozie) well whatever way the vote goes my soul has been sold, so you can read what I wrote I mean I’m basically exposed so- brrrrrah!
[interlude] aw man I ran out of breath... yeah. that was pretty good. ok... let me have another go at this. second time's the charm. ahem. yeah!
[2nd verse] topping up the cone is a fucking hemisphere covered up in colors that are looking really weird like with purple green and gold making up a rainbow but we’re more accepting of LGBTs and queers he and she and you and me are making up a we’re and this place date and time are making up a here now we’re here getting faded off of 27 beers tipsy only give a shit about whatever’s near and the things we hold dear I can barely hear how are they expecting me to tell 'em bout my year or what I’m doing in a year or what I’m doing up in here man I don’t know shit man I’m stupid up in here swear that I could really use a tutor up in here cause I was screwing up in here now I’m screwed up in here throw a party up in here act retarded up in here the last thing I wanna do is stay in a room up in here that’s a life over there that’s getting ruined out of fear time’s to you as a car in the dark is to a deer cause it tears you up and leaves you in tumultuous tears never good enough no matter how much we prepare shit is rare when we aren’t ever suiting up in gear even shooting at our peers so maybe it’s not so weird that we’re not so austere and we’re steering from the clear if life is a carnival we’re waiting for concessions cop a shiny Audi car cause it’s the new obsession drive it on the Autobahn or shit would be depressing bought myself an audemar now I’m feeling reckless it wouldn’t be so far fetched to call us all feckless better yet incompetent our acting’s ineffective my sense of defense is just being inoffensive and since my inception that’s an obvious confession and it’s to mixed reception but I hit up those receptions always make my best attempt to murder all my sessions craving for the excellence of all my predecessors well whatever man this nameless chase is getting so expensive I don’t even know where I go or where my thoughts go but they spin and dance and they prance when I’m all alone at first glance we’re at home go and get our 44's then we going po! po! at the poor po-po, woah! brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrah!
[outro] yeah deadmau5 got beats GAWN's got this heat GAWN's on these beats all eyes on me what'll I do? we'll see I don't know yet Beat Jacker. June 26. 2019. keep an eye out. yeah, I'm out. peace
