What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
I never won the spelling bee
2
I could read people's energy
3
Listen to what have been said to me
4
Heard the voices in elementary
5
That I wouldn't amount to anything
6
Oh girl, she used to vent to me
7
Like, if we just had a nice house and a mortgage
8
And a front lawn, and a fuckin' wedding ring
9
I danced in paris
10
I swam in oceans, felt the scales
11
Put my cd in starbucks, it did not sell
12
Get the cd out my car, turned it into myself
13
These piano keys hold some weight
14
In a bolo tie I escort my date
15
She ordered shrimp scampi on a porcelain plate
16
The accordion played, I put my fork in a steak
17
Afternoons need a coffee boost
18
Attitude needs a confidence boost
19
Yeah, I'm sort of the dude
20
But where's the self-esteem when the costumes removed?
21
Thanks for the invite, can't make it
22
I could blame it on a flight to vegas
23
But, truth be told, rather not socialize
24
And go and waste my time with an acquaintance
25
These relationships need maintenance
26
Everybody got expectations
27
Text back, so impatient
28
Where were you when I was in in-patient?
29
Motherfucker you ain't my accountant
30
You don't know what I'm doing
31
Focusing on what I'm giving back
32
Man, make better music
33
Fuck preaching on top of the mountain, people can see through it
34
Keeping my name in your mouth, just don't bite your tongue while you chew it
35
Exactly I got the man of the year
36
Source magazine was like our vanity fair
37
In a mansion, picking out a chandelier
38
But got a bone to pick with the man in the mirror
39
Questioning the purchase while I'm standing there
40
Questioning the purpose of my rap career
41
Thinking "man, what the hell happened here?"
42
Fells like yesterday in a van packing gear
43
What am I gonna go and give back this year?
44
There's a whole lot of struggling rappers here
45
Want a co-sign and a whole track this year
46
If you know motherfuckers start acing weird
47
Lot of backstabbers and some actors here
48
Lot of has-beens and over-reactors here
49
I remember laughing and cracking beers
50
Now I climbed the ladder and you're mad I'm here
51
Motherfucker you ain't my accountant
52
You don't know what I'm doing
53
Focusing on what I'm giving back
54
Man, make better music
55
Fuck preaching on top of the mountain, people can see through it
56
Keeping my name in your mouth, just don't bite your tongue while you chew it
57
(400)
58
Motherfucker, I'm gone
59
Judging me off of my past, you don't see what I'm doing
60
When I got shot that was headline news
61
You used me for views, I ain't stupid
62
Cause what about all the good?
63
The non-profit for the kids in the hood
64
That ain't got no option in them shelter homes plottin' shit
65
I'm just doing what I should
66
They must want no one to know
67
Cause they don't put that on the news bro
68
They entertained by the culture, they vultures
69
They suck us like leaches 'til we broke
70
But I know the game so I play it like chess
71
Act like a square but really be the threat
72
The next time my name in the press
73
Talk about how yg gave them kids christmas
74
Motherfucker you ain't my accountant
75
You don't know what I'm doing
76
Focused on what I'm giving back make good music
77
Preaching on top of the mountain, people can't see through it
78
Keeping my name in your mouth, just don't bite your tongue while you chewing
79
Motherfucker, I'm gone
80
Fuck, hey, woo
81
Motherfucker, I'm gone
82
(Four, four, four)
83
Hey where'd he go though?
84
(400)
85
Motherfucker, I'm gone
86
(I am the victim not the motherfuckin' suspect)
87
And he's gone, gone
