[Verse 1]
03 - 05 - 97 Man a King was born
Francis and Hellen were glad to have a baby boy
Bought him dope shoes, dope clothes and hella toys
Spoiled lil brat
Coolest baby on the block
Age 5 seated on the porch
Porridge boiling in the pot
Lips looking chap
And my pops bumping Pac
Rocking them Calvin Klein top - bottom jeans
My mom loved prints and she used to bump Prince
Kindergarten I was a weirdo
Already had a ego
I ain’t listen to the teachers cause I thought that they were feeble
As we know, that’s me dawg
My 2nd Grade teacher couldn’t have it so she used to pull my earlobe
3rd Grade I broke my tooth and pops said we gotta fix it
Went back to school, my crush told me that she digs it
Went back home and told pops
“We gotta keep it”
Oops!
That’s a secret... Damn
High School, Biology class a N***a never passed it
I was writing raps with Maliez in the backseat
“Man this class stink”
So I cut it
Cause I knew deep down my heart I was born to make classics
[Chorus]
Never!
Dumb Down for an Ignorant mind
Never!
Dumb Down for an ignorant mind
I’m just doing my thing
I’m just tryna get mine
Never!
Dumb Down for an ignorant mind
Never!
Dumb Down for an Ignorant mind
Never!
Dumb Down for an ignorant mind
I’m just doing my thing
I’m just tryna get mine
Never!
Dumb Down for an ignorant mind
Hah!
[Verse 2]
Never
Mix my great name with some bullshit
I’ma cuss you’re out while I’m standing at the pulpit
These ‘yeezy wearing ass n***s really on some bullshit
Well not all of you
But wear it if the shoe fits
Truth is, I’m too sick
Saying you can murder me is like saying you can murder Cupid
Don’t be stupid
I live in the spirit, my lyrics were written down by a burning tree
I’m the illest rapper I know!
And this Goodope is so bad news
Like a n***a died off bad dope
I’m from the bottomless pit
And with the way that I spit
It’s only right that a n***a should get himself some mad cash
Cop myself some fast cars
You already know there’s a million rappers out there that I surpass
These wack ass rappers is just ass
Cracked ass
Flat ass
Oh Lord I’m such a jackass
[Chorus]
Never!
Dumb Down for an Ignorant mind
Never!
Dumb Down for an ignorant mind
I’m just doing my thing
I’m just tryna get mine
Never!
Dumb Down for an ignorant mind
Never!
Dumb Down for an Ignorant mind
Never!
Dumb Down for an ignorant mind
(I’m just doing my thing
I’m just tryna get mine
Never!
Dumb Down for an ignorant mind)
Hah!
