Lyrics
0:13Hotter than the border cooler than the corpse
0:16They call me Young Sole with that suicide voice
0:20I'm a workhorse rap is my glue
0:23In this ghost-town it's always high noon
0:26Bury my peers without wasting ammo
0:29And you don't wanna battle emulate my hustle
0:32I'm the Lawnmower Man fightn' asteroid turf
0:35And I don't mind at all my blade don't dull
0:39My name rings bells and burns bridges
0:42The industry hates me cuz I'm still eatin'
0:45An amateur chef f**king with rare spices
0:48Ain't had no fast food since I worked at McDonald's
0:52Self made man nobody gave me sh*t too
0:55Except my addict father thanks for the anger issues
0:58Keep your friends close and the hate at bay
1:00Don't be mad at me that bitterness will eat you alive
1:05In middle school I read Animal Farm
1:07And that's the real reason I had to pull out the card
1:11When those words leave my mouth it's like a cold dagger
1:14But this is my blood and no one else's labor
1:17Like a pig that can walk you are taller than me
1:20But I can run away or I can butcher you
1:23Like a pig who can talk you say I am a fool
1:26But I can eat you because you're just a pig
1:43I make the music that I wanna make
1:45Doin' this race you gotta break some legs you gotta your dues
1:48Stare in the mirror deep in them pupils beneath the lens lye the universe
1:53Hundred light-years and sinkin'
1:56On some space sh*t some base their music
1:58When all you hear is explosives put down your weapon
2:01Snuggle up to the cold shoulder cast your vote by the seed
2:05There's a quiet goin' on don't sleep
2:08My teacher said get a GED pull out my classes
2:11Except my art teacher said I would be famous
2:14Instead I'm infamous the underwater MC
2:17The microorganism stayin' alive by thermal vents under the sea
2:21Where light barely reaches where the preachers are slain
2:24Where curiosity dies cuz the teachers are lame
2:27I've picked my sides it's a loosing battle
2:30Like my mother's book it's that path less traveled
2:33No justice for the weak no president can save us
2:37No dying on our knees only our dreams can kill us
2:40At age 20 knowing everything it was my style
2:43I was older than that then I'm younger than that now
Hotter than the border cooler than the corpse They call me Young Sole with that suicide voice I'm a workhorse rap is my glue In this ghost-town it's always high noon Bury my peers without wasting ammo And you don't wanna battle emulate my hustle I'm the Lawnmower Man fightn' asteroid turf And I don't mind at all my blade don't dull My name rings bells and burns bridges The industry hates me cuz I'm still eatin' An amateur chef f**king with rare spices Ain't had no fast food since I worked at McDonald's Self made man nobody gave me sh*t too Except my addict father thanks for the anger issues Keep your friends close and the hate at bay Don't be mad at me that bitterness will eat you alive In middle school I read Animal Farm And that's the real reason I had to pull out the card When those words leave my mouth it's like a cold dagger But this is my blood and no one else's labor Like a pig that can walk you are taller than me But I can run away or I can butcher you Like a pig who can talk you say I am a fool But I can eat you because you're just a pig I make the music that I wanna make Doin' this race you gotta break some legs you gotta your dues Stare in the mirror deep in them pupils beneath the lens lye the universe Hundred light-years and sinkin' On some space sh*t some base their music When all you hear is explosives put down your weapon Snuggle up to the cold shoulder cast your vote by the seed There's a quiet goin' on don't sleep My teacher said get a GED pull out my classes Except my art teacher said I would be famous Instead I'm infamous the underwater MC The microorganism stayin' alive by thermal vents under the sea Where light barely reaches where the preachers are slain Where curiosity dies cuz the teachers are lame I've picked my sides it's a loosing battle Like my mother's book it's that path less traveled No justice for the weak no president can save us No dying on our knees only our dreams can kill us At age 20 knowing everything it was my style I was older than that then I'm younger than that now
