I'm hollow to the core, yeah my bones are empty
2
No marrow, no mass, but heart I got plenty
3
Though no blood flows through these veins, somethin' is in me
4
Lyndon, Jimmy, Dolores, Jerry and Uncle Ricky
5
My whole family tree 'bout as normal as me
6
Everybody got they own story of what's supposed to be
7
And what could've been, what should've been
8
Should've been let on to the fact that I'm destined to never win
9
How come every record I'm on ends up in the 99 cent bin?
10
Pick it up if you need something to wipe while you're shittin'

Can't pipe down, more rappers need rippin'
12
I'll never be like Mike or even Scottie Pippen
13
Goofy A&R tell me the elements are missin'
14
Chippin' in his two cents, listen, nothin' is smitten
15
Sittin' on leavin' more brisk than Lipton
16
Nipped in the bud, how come your bomb record was a dud?

I should reap what I sow,
18
my life is just so ordinary, I'm a ordinary joe

23
On the contrary this a new all-time low
24

25
This plastic life that we fed intravenously
26
The tubes that we watch religiously
27
Not real, nothin' is, nothin' begins without an end
28
This is big business but back to the test again
29
Justice will fail us we must look from within
30
This is the truth, I got the blueprints right here in the booth
31
Is you in? Then jump in, the deadpool is now accepting applications
32
For the nameless and faceless
33
The has-beens and the almost famous
34
Fucked in our anus without a reach-around
35
Reach way down until you found that dark somethin' hidin' out
36
Smoke from my lungs and flush from my liver
37
'Til it slivers out my mouth hole
38
I remember how life was before my downfall
39
Before these walls closed in
40
Soaked in sweat, aka:
41
Hard work'll get you nowhere, don't forget
42
A working class hero's nothin' to be
43
Trust me, don't do it, I watched my old man go through it

Are you here to pay homage are you here to bear witness?

50
Smidgeons and digits and acres of paper
51
Negotiations and crunchin' numbers, contracts
52
A new savior has attached to this beat like a serial rapist
53
To girls with short skirts and high heels on they feet
54
You'll never defeat me, I'm a centipede
55
You cut off an end of me but I only grow back stronger
56
There's no remedy
57
Honestly, I never drank Hennessy, I can't afford it
58
I only drank forties, lordy lordy
59
No fuckin' bitches'll court me, distort the image of the world
60
But more importantly, there's more to me than meets the eye
61
I cordially invite you into the mind of a ordinary joe
62
with an ordinary name livin' in a ordinary house
63
never see things like fame, or money, bitches and champagne
64
Your cars are lame, beats are weak and your raps sound the same
65
Ain't a god damned game, stop sayin' it is
66
I break my ribs tryin' to fill in these ad-libs
67
Mad kids can't see with closed eyelids
68
Still, half these MCs don't know who I is
69
I should reap what I sow,
70
my life is just so ordinary, I'm a ordinary joe

On the contrary this a new all-time low
