SKILL ISSUE - Intellectual

[Verse 1: Askari]

Hey

I'm in Silverlake with the sauce-biters...

...but I'm smilin' good, money multipyin'

With the wave-riders off of Wilshire

Claiming rockstar, now you caught lyin'

I could call you out, but it's not dire

Bitch, I'll really die over them 6 wires

I can't be rockstar if I ain't self righteous

I could melt minds with a simple mel' of mine, baby

Drop D in her and then I riff away

Shorty black and brown, she be rottweilin'

Ask for black or white, you just give me gray

Baby pick a side, don't be indecisive

Ask for bla—, you just give me—

Ask for black or—, you just give me (gray)

Ask for black or white, you just give me gray

Baby pick a side, don't be indecisive

Came to LA for a paycheck

Came to LA, still ain't payed yet

Came to LA, still ain't pay off

Now you let go from your day job

Now you LO, nigga, laid off

Came to LA for a paycheck

Came to LA, still ain't payed yet

Came to LA, still ain't pay off

Put your money where your mouth is

Watch what you say

If your money where your mouth is...

...I bet you'd watch what you say

He wear his name like makeup base

He got the counterfeited taste

He told some lies for better views

Surrounded by curated crews

These niggas weird

I caught you lyin' through veneers, these niggas weird

You not as fye as you appear, these niggas weird

Atop it's quiet, cold, and thin, can't breath

A glass-walled cage, they'll call a win, no way back down

No way back down without a fall, no soul left strong

No soul left strong enough to crawl, someone behind

Eyes just as hungry just as blind, these niggas
