lirik lagu not poetry – deadpan

[intro]
still deciding where i came from
still deciding what my last name was
still deciding my genetic
listen

[verse]
i said, still deciding where this skinny -ss, oversized-closed-wearing five-eight boy came from
but i know i’m not a poet
i’m a motherf-cking rapper
just trying to prove it to my habitually-lying paystubs
oversell myself short, no go-telling-12 sorts
could quell or fend off my scorn
edgar allen poe, my pen is better though
wrote broken spells you fell for
shut the f-ck up about d-ckens, homer, and shakespeare
running my mouth, and only tripping over the greats here
legend early but living past my twenty-eighth year
i’m not even calling them out, jim joyce
armando gallarraga, hardest guy to follow
but the books won’t even remember my lines
safe to say they’re peddling lies
dostoyevsky won’t best me
brothers grimm on some other sh-t
1-9-8-4 spells “bored h-ll” orwell’s a big joke
calling him brandon wardell
making legends read like animorphs and goosebumps
acting like we’re only rapping for a few bucks
and profanity prevails, we’re the tragedy in tales
only listen to what that hack reported to ya
spitting this p-ssed off to nicholas kristoff
who’s written this sh-t off as frivolous sh-t talking
more impactful than a novel and a short story
don’t know an author that would hop into a war for me
only writing for the ruling cl-ss, literature’s lil dogs
drooling fools sitting in rich halls
knowing well war’s gory
telling me the sh-t i’ve written k!lls while they build walls

- deadpan
