(feat. Gemstones, Graham Burris)
2
[Verse 1:]
3
I'm fearless
4
Now hear this
5
I'm earless
6
And I'm peerless
7
That means I'm eyeless
8
Which means I'm tearless
9
Which means my iris resides where my ears is
10
Which means I'm blinded
11
But I'mma find it I can feel it's nearness
12
But I'mma veer so I don't come near
13
Like a chicken or a deer
14
But I remember I'm not a listener or a seer so my windshield smear
15
Here, you steer, I really shouldn't be behind this, clearly cause my blindness
16
The windshield is minstrel, the whole grill is roadkill, so trill and so sincere. Yeah, I'm
17
Both them there
18
Took both pills, when a bloke in a trench coat and the locs in the chair had approached him
19
Here
20
And he clear as a ghost, so a biter of the throats in the mirror
21
The writer of the quotes for the ghosts who supplier of the notes to the living
22
Riveting is rosy, pockets full of posies, given to the mother of the deceased. Awaken at war,
23
'til I'm restin' in peace
24
[Chorus 1:]
25
You goin' over niggas' heads Lu (Dumb it down)
26
They tellin' me that they don't feel you (Dumb it down)
27
We ain't graduate from school nigga (Dumb it down)
28
Them big words ain't cool nigga (Dumb it down)
29
Yeah I heard Mean And Vicious nigga (Dumb it down)
30
Make a song for the bitches nigga (Dumb it down)
31
We don't care about the weather nigga (Dumb it down)
32
You'll sell more records if you (Dumb it down)
33
[Verse 2:]
34
And I'm mouthless
35
Which means I'm soundless
36
Now as far as the hearing, I've found it
37
It was as far as the distance from the earring to the ground is
38
But the doorknockers on the ear of a stewardess in a Lear
39
She fine and she flyin, I feel I'm flying by'em 'cause my mind's on cloud nine and I'm a mime
40
At the same time
41
Pimps see the wings on the underground king
42
Who's also Klingon
43
To infinity and beyond
44
Something really stinks, but I Sphinx like Leon
45
Or lying in the desert
46
I'm flying on pegasus you're flying on the pheasant
47
Rider of the white powder, picker of the fire flowers, spit hot fire like Dylon on Chappelle's
48
Skit
49
Yeah, smell it on my unicorn, snort the white horse, but toot my own horn (sleep)
50
[Chorus 2:]
51
You've been shedding too much light Lu (Dumb it down)
52
You make'em wanna do right Lu (Dumb it down)
53
They're getting self-esteem Lu (Dumb it down)
54
These girls are trying to be queens Lu (Dumb it down)
55
They're trying to graduate from school Lu (Dumb it down)
56
They're starting to think that smart is cool Lu (Dumb it down)
57
They're trying to get up out the hood Lu (Dumb it down)
58
I'll tell you what you should do (Dumb it down)
59
[Verse 3:]
60
And I'm brainless
61
Which means I'm headless
62
Like Ichabod Crane is
63
Or foreplay-less s** is
64
Which makes me stainless
65
With no neck left to hang the chain with
66
Which makes me necklace-less
67
Like a necklace theft
68
And I ain't used my headrest yet
69
They said they need proof like a vestless chest 'bout the best, fair F-F-jet in the nest
70
Who exudes confidence and excess depth
71
Even Scuba Steve would find it hard to breathe
72
Around these leagues
73
My snorkle is a tuba, Lu the ruler around these seas
74
Westside Poseidon, Westside beside'em, chest high and rising
75
Almost touching the knees of stewardess and the pilot
76
Lucky they make it flowered
77
Personal floating devices, tricks falling out of my sleeves
78
David Blaine
79
Make it rain
80
Make a boat
81
I make a plane
82
Then, I pull the plug and I make it drain
83
Until I feel like flowing and filling it up again..(Westside)
84
[Chorus 3:]
85
You putting me to sleep nigga (Dumb it down)
86
That's why you ain't popping in the streets nigga (Dumb it down)
87
You ain't winning no awards nigga (Dumb it down)
88
Robots and skateboards nigga? (Dumb it down)
89
Gq Man Of The Year G? (Dumb it down)
90
Shit ain't rocking over here B (Dumb it down)
91
Won't you talk about your cars nigga? (Dumb it down)
92
What the fuck is goyard nigga (Dumb it down)
93
Make it rain for the chicks (Dumb it down)
94
Pour champagne on a bitch (Dumb it down)
95
What the fuck is wrong with you? (Dumb it down)
96
How can I get on a song with you? (Dumb it down)
97
[Gemini: talking]
98
Look B, here's my man, my two way, (hey) uh, what should I - ah here take this (hey) that
99
Right there, fucking my voice all the time nigga, (hey) nigga you hot to me, I like you (Dumb
100

[Lupe:]
