Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Say Brain, what do you wanna do tonight?
They same thing we do every night Pinky
Try to take over the world
Who the fuck this Joey Bada$$ ****, son?
[Verse 2]
Ayo, who the fuck passed you the mic
And said that you could flow?
Point 'em out, bitch, I wanna know
Who the fuck passed you the mic?
(You the mic) Check
[Verse 3]
Puffin' on stramonium
Underground like potholes
But golden fly so
These bars like art in the Smithsonian
These flows is for custodians
Homeless men, horny, old virgin dudes
Browsing my laptop lookin' at red Fallopian tube
They like, ""Yo Joey, you rude"
I'm like, "If only you knew"
I'm only in school for cosmology
That's why I just lonely as you
You see, I'm wise beyond my years and my peers
So my voice over the snares is the only way they hear
[Verse 4]
What I got behind my membrane
But I've been smokin' chem strains
So lately I've been havin' hard times with rememberin'
But be patient, my studies prove Egyptians ain't shit
'Cause I believe that we could be like Neo in the Matrix
But fuck it, I'm erratic
Momma locked me in the attic please
Till I draw enough static in my somatic anatomy
And come out imputed with fusions of Blueprints and Illmatics
I've been goin' raw, this just how I feel rappin'
We gave y'all certain tactics
So y'all can't even gas us
We taught you how to be prepared
But still attackin' the masses
Y'all better get your caskets 'cause we 'bout to annihilate
(The New Babylon Era)
My empire gates in the Empire State
I'm on the higher platform
Look at the way they clap for 'em
Never fucked with phony men
'Cause I don't like my back torn
****, ask Quan
This that top ramen you ain't used to
Keep it neutral to scruple and tell 'em old beef like noodles
[Verse 5]
Keep it neutral
Just to you could scruple
I tell 'em no beef like noodles
[Verse 6]
It's world domination (Nation)
You're tune into my station
Always got the doobie in the motherfuckin' eighth lit
Always got the trees, so what the fuck you mean?
I ain't about to rise to the top with my fuckin' team
It's world domination (Nation)
You're tune into my station
Always got the doobie in the motherfuckin' eighth lit
Always got the trees, so what the fuck you mean?
I ain't about to rise to the top with my fuckin' team
[Verse 7]
Ayo, who the fuck passed you the mic
And said that you could flow?
Point 'em out, bitch, I wanna know
Who the fuck passed you the mic? (You the mic)
[Verse 8]
Ayo, who the fuck passed you the mic
And said that you could flow?
Point 'em out, bitch, I wanna know
Who the fuck passed you the mic? (You the mic)
