[Tom MacDonald - Sellout lyrics]

I'm sick of hearin' that I changed up
Everybody wanna keep me chained up
Check if this a race, if I'm runnin' and
You're walkin', I can't wait up, straight up
I feel like I'm the same as when I came up
It's still fuck a record label
Still fuck a manager
Still do it all with my girl from my home
Yeah, I bought some Gucci
But I hardly even wear it
I was stoked that after thirty
Years I finally wasn't broke
And I don't like that stuff
The vibe ain't tough
I should go and soak the clothes
In gasoline and light that up
All these stupid little
Rappers poppin' Xanax
Bad examples for our children
I will never write that, bruh
I'm the same man livin' like I used to


Do it for my fans
Gettin' famous off of YouTube
Hope they understand I'm only human
Didn't know that makin' music
Will be so fuckin' confusin', no excuses
That's the truth too
I will always be the person who I used to be
I ain't wearing diamonds
I ain't lyin' 'bout my jewelry
Every chain is fake
And all that Gucci isn't new to me
I bought it secondhand so I'd look
Cool on your computer screen
So I'm tired of bein' analyzed
By fans like they're scientists
Who criticize for every single rhyme I spit
If you really think I changed
Go ask my sister 'bout her wedding dress
My dad about Nepal or my
Mom 'bout her appliances

They say I sold out, love me poor
They don't fuck with me no more
Say I changed up, now they're bored
They miss the way I was before
I guess I sold out, they mad
Gold mouth, Louis bag but everything I was
Made me everything I, everything I am

Look, I get it, all the criticism verified
Spent some years together
Now we're goin' through a scary time
Trust me
If I witnessed my hero been actin' different
It seemed like he might be
Switchin', I'd be trippin', i'd be terrified
But picture this
Roaches climbin' out the cupboards
I was livin' in the ghetto
Borrowed money from my mother
I just had a mental breakdown
My girlfriend in the struggle
Then I blew up overnight and we recovered
We went to Gucci and Louis
Moved out the hood to a safe house
Started doin' things that we dreamed
When we laid down
Now everybody's sayin' that I changed
And they hate loud
I was tryna show my girl like, "Hey, babe
We're okay now"
Still throw a brick through the
Window of the lobby
Of any record label who tryna stop me
Still be the voice of every single
Lonely person with a story
They can't tell because they never had nobody
Still fuck the system and pharma
And every whack politician
And every triggered millennial too
Offended to listen
I got caught up in tryna show
All the haters I did it
And I forgot that bein' Thomas
Was the promise I'd given
I understand why everybody lately
Sayin' I changed
But I get bored of everything
That stays exactly the same
I promise that I'll burn it
Down with fuel and flames
Before I lose myself and become all
The things that I hate

They say I sold out, love me poor
They don't fuck with me no more
Say I changed up, now they're bored
They miss the way I was before
I guess I sold out, they mad
Gold mouth, Louis bag but everything I was
Made me everything I, everything I am

I learned from my mistakes
I grew up and I changed
But I swear I'm still the same
I fell along the way
Took more than I could take
But I turned out okay

They say I sold out, love me poor
They don't fuck with me no more
Say I changed up, now they're bored
They miss the way I was before
I guess I sold out, they mad
Gold mouth, Louis bag but everything I was
Made me everything I, everything I am

They say I sold out, love me poor
They don't fuck with me no more
Say I changed up, now they're bored
They miss the way I was before
I guess I sold out, they mad
Gold mouth, Louis bag but everything I was
Made me everything I, everything I am
