Lyrics

[Intro]

Aye, aye, aye, yo

[Verse 1]

Man, I just love noise

Weren't long ago when we had no voice

One magazine back then called 'Voice'

Now they wanna try tell man about choice

Aye, yo, fuck your choice

Your opinion's void

I might just smile and destroy

Handle all with the grace and poise

[Verse 2]

Uh, yo, keep your toys

I do not play, I'm Freud

Late night, catch me fried

Way too deep in my mind, I'm tired

Tell no lies

Uh, well, I try

No one's perfect, I just do mine

Some people can pretend for careers

But I did this for years, I'm just not that guy

Fly off the handle, nah, that's dry

Hope might leave, but I'm never gonna cry

I was like eleven and I dead 'em in my sight

Felons on my side, venom on the mic

Lucky seven on the dice

Gonna die sometime

That's relevant advice if you're older and wise

If you're not that size

No exchanging my time like Bryce, hmm, yo

[Chorus]

Man, I just love noise

Weren't long ago when we had no voice

One magazine back then called 'Voice'

Now they wanna try tell man about choice

Yo, fuck your choice

Uh, your opinion's void

I might just smile and destroy

Handle all with the grace and poise

[Verse 3]

Don't get involved for sake of nonsense

Nowadays politics has no function, uh

Yo, has no conscience

Too much chat, bullshit in abundance

But no real heart in the conference

Just financial assumptions

Fresh, independent fundings

So many zeros on new-age punkin', ah

Everyone's got morals, but really everyone's stunting (Trust)

And it don't look pretty

Tell a bad B she can suck my Johnson (Boris)

Yo, we're at the junction

We're at the start of something

Uh, we're at the end of something

Can you feel that crumbling?

[Chorus]

Mmm, man, I just love noise

Weren't long ago when we had no voice

One magazine back then called 'Voice'

Now they wanna try tell man about choice

Yo, fuck your choice

Yeah?

Your opinion's void

I might just smile and destroy

Handle all with the grace and poise

[Verse 4]

Last year they offered eighty thou

Ooh, wow, I turned it down

I need more, I need it now

Ask him why, I'll break it down

That ain't even a pound for every stone we sold in town

For every phone call I took from a pay phone

My phone rang loud

And I linked up, swore my soul right now

I need enough to invest in the ends

In my pursuit for the best new trends

Made light of wrongs

Now I'm tryna right those wrongs

It's deeper than writing songs

I found my voice, then I made a choice

I'ma speak up, burn down Babylon

Don't do it for the post and caption

Me and Jelani, two powerful black men, ooh

[Chorus]

Mmm, man, I just love noise

Weren't long ago when we had no voice

One magazine back then called 'Voice'

Now they wanna try tell man about choice

Oh, fuck your choice

Your opinion's void

I might just smile and destroy

Handle all with the grace and poise

[Chorus]

Hmm, man, I just love noise

Weren't long ago when we had no voice

One magazine back then called 'Voice'

Now they wanna try tell man about choice

Yo, fuck your choice

Your opinion's void

I might just smile and destroy

Handle all with the grace and poise

[Outro]

Hmm, ah, your choice

There can be no true option when it's dictated by other people

Uhm, has to be in the hands of yourself

Mmm, so fuck their choice
