Power On


[Verse]

Man, this GAMEBOY doesn’t play for a long time

First time I played the GAMEBOY was on the plane with my dad ( Thanks Dad )

He gave me a GAMEBOY, it was blue, like my grandmother’s Jaguar

In the lab like a science experiment, I’m a hamstar

Life’s a jungle, never knew until I watched Madagascar

Long—— wanna race like a NASCAR

Get too happy on the beat, like I’m a smiley face sticker

Like I’m a Dalmatian Dog, I don’t even know my spots

Man, I hope this DS has a new game, tirеd of Pokémon

Tryna find yo’ way, nigga I’m not where you belong

Don’t know if it’s a robot in my brain, or if it’s God

And if this a rеlay, I ain’t ever gon’ throw that lob

Growing in the grass, dig me out, like I’m a flower

Don’t know if it’s baking soda on the plate, or if it’s flour

(Hey you’re not into drugs right?)

No not really

I just ate a banana, so I hope you don’t peel me

This a fake knife, so I hope you don’t kill me

My slug, stopped me in the store, thought we were cooking

Now it’s infected with cake worms (Is that a butter knife?!)

Mama didn’t tell me these boo-boos would hurt

It’ll hurt yo’ family, if you put my son on a shirt

Thinking about black woman make my heart wanna stop

Thinking about all my black men make me so fuckin’ pissed off

I can’t even play my game no more

Hold on, Blink

I don’t fuck with therapy, I don’t need no damn shrink

How I’ma tell you everything if you don’t even love me

Remember I got broken up with, and I was like love stinks

Now my heart is a pixel, Mario, I’m peach

And I’m gettin all these coins, so you better watch out for Yogi

Driving in my car, and I’m on round three

And, if I win this race right now does it mean later I’m free? (Probably Not)

You was better off talking to me, about me

Where my charger at, wait IPhone 11’s

I’ma tell you why 6 8 7

8, 9, 10

I’m the Grinch

All these lights, so don’t flinch

I feel like Rudolph wasn’t happy, he just had to pretend

His nose was shiny

And he was the favorite

I hated being the favorite, all my whole life

My whole life, I always been like, “Why?”

Now I’m like, “Why not”

All the crazy props

Get me on the stage

Appropriation

Umm..

Wait, don’t say the next line, ‘cause I’m afraid I’ll get popped

Pop, pop, pop, pop, goes the weasel

And if I die today, I bet this movie will have a sequel

And I’m the good guy, so I’ma treat everybody equal

But I look too bad, Hook’s real name is lethal

And I haven’t switched the flow, but your still listening

Even with your eyes closed you can still see me

How you don’t look, but you sound pretty

How many time I’m gon’ tell you, I’ma bring my brothers with me

How many times I gotta tell you nobody fuckin’ with my kiddy

Don’t live in the stu, but this could get busy

Don’t live in the city, but we could get busy

Like traffic

Now we in arcade

You can’t drift past this

And the air hockey broke took me to get catfish

Now I’m at JJ’s

Came a long way, from shooting heat at the J’s

My nana gave me recipes

That’s why I’m so far, no one ahead of me

Until I look down

And that nigga still behind me, depending where I’m out in the town

My first black teacher name, was Ms. Brown

All these black families on TV, meet the browns

Or Family Matters

Now I got a thousand shadows

I guess I don’t need a GAMEBOY now
