AfterTouch Beats Cypher Lyrics

Swagberg, Bagel Maf, rapping for the set, fam
Apologies, I don't know what happened to my webcam
Do it for the dollars--say about 25
Otherwise, it's like a mormon without a ton of wives
Wonder what the point is,
everybody's gonna die
Y'all can be 'bout being underground or all your guns and knives
But that's a fake war, say Saddam with me
I don't do it for them white boys hating on Nicki
I don't do it for the people or the art or la raza
I do the shit I want and give a shit about halakha

Yo, lately I've been making that wealth
And been lifting and just tryna be maintaining my health
Following the dream and I'm chasing it well
So why'd I spend another summer fucking hating myself
Plus some of y'all motherfuckers need to shut it
Nobody's saying "swag" so why the fuck you saying fuck it?
But fuck it
I just front like I'm above it,
but tell me why I suck
I might nut up and rebut it

Y'all just never cut it, poems are worth shidit
I just ain't too much of a drone to admit it

That ain't ego, either, listen, I'm my own worst critic
So if I say I'm better I will own what I spitted

Never been a Methodist, hella attention deficit
Never really been repping a set as if it isn't evident
Yalla, yalla, vote for the president
Even if that Jim Crow ID shizzle's an impediment
Wanna know where I've been?
Rocking a snappy tie in the Hasbro offices, talking about a tie in
Nah, shouts to the guys been
Watching the Olympics and crushing on Aly Raisman
Followup: wrote that before she could say "I win"
So you know this guy can pick em, ha ha ha stick em
Bagel Maf make a killing, I got Aftertouch Beats on the riddim
