lyrics

Things might look okay from your end
But they’re not great over here

I shot myself in the foot, right in the foot
I promise I did it look, look
Right in the foot, in the…
Check it out

Don’t do what I do just follow your passion
Ever since I started dad jokes they don’t wanna see me rapping
I don’t make a dime though you’re home laughing and crying
Have a good time but I’m poorer than before showing that side
Dropping album after album IG put me in the shadows
Even though I spend a lot of time it’s still a constant battle
For the people that had followed me to see what I been posting
Because “follow God” and “don’t take shots” cause a commotion
Only when I’m joking do they ever really seem to bother
Every flow I drop streams show a fish dead in the water
No one going harder but I don’t have any visibility
So few music videos I’m literally killing me
I been feeling like Jiminy I’m kicking it with crickets
I thought things would turn around whenever I hit those 6 digits
But having a bunch of followers means that you have something followers
To look at ads and reels, commercials, what is trending all the worst

Look at me went and did it again
I’m the definition that insanity is
I made a song they said it was a hit
But I don’t ever promote it
Come and follow me kids
I’m about to go and jump right off a bridge
And the chance of making it is
The same as rapping when you rapping like this
This, like this, when you rap like this
This, this, is that what this…

I must want to be banned standing firm in my beliefs
When I drive I see STOP painted that’s word on the street
Maybe it’s a hint of my stint doing comic relief
That I should do it as underpants do it and make it brief
I’m no boxer either not tough these tattoos are camouflage
Bulba was my first starter I’m here to battle frogs
Had some pogs and logs Lincoln me back to catalogs
Acid wash jeans, Dr. Machino as a boss
Maybe I’m too dorky to get be accepted
And I confuse you by going this direction
Is he comedy, rap, his Pokémon collection?
Is he Christian, a science experiment dissected?
He’s a veteran too! I can’t believe I follow him
I do one thing you don’t like and then you can’t acknowledge him
Unfollow him, block, unblock, block why don’t we abolish him
And here I thought fitting in would be an accomplishment

Look at me went and did it again
I’m the definition that insanity is
I made a song they said it was a hit
But I don’t ever promote it
Come and follow me kids
I’m about to go and jump right off a bridge
And the chance of making it is
The same as rapping when you rapping like this
This, like this, when you rap like this
This, this, is that what…

Look at me went and did it again
I’m the definition that insanity is
I made a song they said it was a hit
But I don’t ever promote it
Come and follow me kids
I’m about to go and jump right off a bridge
And the chance of making it is
The same as rapping when you rapping like this
This, like this, when you rap like this
This, this, is that what this is?

Is that what this is?

Is that what this…
