IAMe - Deaf Kid lyrics

It's Lame the deaf kid
I ain't even tryna hear you
Save your breath, it'll be a better look
Than your empty rhetoric
No, I ain't a hater maybe just a little bit
Lot of folks came and went and went
More bitter than when they enter, go figure
This biz that we're in means men
Will bends for the scratch
But, I'm no gymnast
Try to bend over backwards to
Get rid of this itch
Went broke in the process (Damn it)
Guess I should've stretched proper
I should have these labels
Making the best offer
Lame should be a household name
I should be the reigning champ
I should rock two rings
Like my man Illmac, homie what you think?
(Well, I mean) never mind what you think
This my grind time, shouts to Drect
Lame is the future and I won't relent
IAME, I'll always be my enemy
And my vice is BF-F
And the mic is my secret weapon
Cause on it I fight back
Only thing in my life that
I can sometimes control
Is the crowd and my deep breaths

So I take one and I make fun of myself
And the world around me try to make light
But I never take lightly the burden I proudly
Carry for my people that surround me
For the heaviness of the
Concepts that astound me
This is Heaven Noise and it sounds free
Cause, I don't compromise my integrity

In other words, they ain't raping me
And the shiny accolades don't define me
If a bullet-proof Escalade's where
You'll find me
I'm in a motorcade, First Lady beside me
And I don't mean Michelle
I mean if I ruled the world
Like Nas and Ms hill
Though I'm writing for strangers like Larry
They can feel this in their
Live souls like Mad
And what the rest of y'all tryna pass off
As dope ain't, I'm just making that call
(So) Back off, someone's probably said this
But my crew has more members
Than a House of Representatives
Sandpeople in the house, I'm representing it
Oldominion's in the building when
I step in it what you really want now? Huh?
You not getting it
See how fast a gang of motherfuckers
Made a mess of it

But even alone, I'll make one
Make fun of myself and the world around me
Try to make light
But I never take lightly the burden I proudly
Carry for my people that surround me
For the heaviness of the
Concepts that astound me
This is Heaven Noise and it sounds free
Cause, I don't compromise my integrity

So who wants to battle me?
There's no B-Rabbit in me
I'm no Energizer batter
I can't just keep going, it's the ADD
When I'm fully focused, I'm deadly with lines
But, I used to only
Focus after deadlier lines
What I put up my nose told me that I was fine
I've always been slow
It just sped up my mind
And I've said plenty of times
Yet it's too powerful
This the part in power dudes
That missed the power drill
References out of left field, obscure
Some undecipherable as God's word
Landed on this rock, third from the sun
Left crop circles
There's still work to be done
As far out as the cosmos is where I've gone
And I still come back to potholes in my lawn

I'll never escape them
So I make fun of myself
And the world around me try to make light
But I never take lightly the burden I proudly
Carry for my people that surround me
For the heaviness of the
Concepts that astound me
This is Heaven Noise and it sounds free
Cause, I don't compromise my integrity
