[Intro] Can't believe these people, man Gah [Verse 1] You can imagine how I felt when I heard the news They said I can't rap and sing but I had to choose, what? I just looked at 'em and started laughin' I don't think y'all understand, just call me Bo Jackson If Dion could play two sports at the same time I'm pretty sure that I can sing and can rhyme I'm quite confident in my competence I'm not too concerned with your compliments If I gotta work twice as hard then so be it But I'mma make this happen whether you believe it or not Jokers can't even see what I got Type of killer combo that will make you breathe and stop Still critics wanna doubt my skill Stare me down sizin' me up like a value meal I'm tested and approved dog, value's real And still I save my best moves like Zoolander saved Blue Steel [Hook] So tired of trying to please everyone A million different opinions I'm just going to be myself whether they like it or not I'm giving it all that I got [Verse 2] They said, "Keep on doin' what you do, B And maybe one day you'll end up in the movies" Maybe I can play Shaggy in Scooby Doo 3 And co-star with Angelina Julie Oops, I meant Jolie, okie-dokie I didn't come just to mess around and make jokes see I got a mission an agenda and an antidote peep A contradiction to the message of Oprah Winfrey Whoops, did I just say that out loud? Well, there you go now it's out I won't be in her magazine or on her TV show now But I refused to be duped into believin' The truth is whatever you choose to believe in Oh boy, here come the protesters Get out your helmets and your bullet proof vests Cause they're comin' for you if you rock the boat But I'm gonna go against the flow or the status quo cause I'm [Hook] [Verse 3] You can't put me in a box or put me in a genre I'm gonna work it out like my name was Jane Fonda I came from the same city as Jeffrey Dahmer That don't make me crazy, you can ask my momma She raised me to behave and not to cause drama Sorry for this one I had to let 'em have it The flow's still automatic I told you I'm back at it, oh Just call me O.J. I had to take a stab at it Woah, there's some tongue in cheek Want beats here you go I make one a week Put some hot sauce on the top be careful they're spicy Plus I'm nice with the mic see they like it like Mikey More flavorful than Hi-C, cooler than Icees Was born two weeks early or I would have been a Pisces Couldn't have been said more precisely Better book me now before I get too pricey [Outro] I know you are entitled to your own opinion But that don't mean that you now how to run my business See I'm a work in progress that is still not finished I'm still not finished
