A TALE Lyrics by ​​kid c.

the prEP

2016

[Verse]
I've been working on this shit, 24/7
I ain't ever going heaven and I know it, yeah
Thinking 'bout this bitch
Who tried to fuck me over, give a taste of her own medicine, yeah
Drinking, getting pissed
Honestly that shit ain't for me and I know it, almost made me quit music
Really, fuck that shit
Focusing on all the stuff I can make, maybe make a top 10 hit
Honestly, I wanna be your top 3
Kid c., Corey, everybody loving me
I rarely brag about some shit, it's cheesy
But when I think about it, man, I'm really glad I joined the scene
I dunno if I'm cracking really lyrically
But if the flow's on point, I guess that's all I fucking need
Cause if I'm acting like I'm fucking trendy
Promoting smoking kush and trees, I guarantee I'll get money, yeah
And you know it, man, you working out my flaws
You're laughing to the bank, I'm countin' mine, not yours
I'm living off a bit of P, I'm close to poor
But I won't fuck around, you see, I'm what you saw
Every other time you looked at who inspired you
Never take the credit but c'mon, quit lying
You lousy motherfuckers who be "fine", you dining?
Acting like you're fucking diamond when you barely put the time in
WHAT the actual motherfuck is up with you? I swear
Don't you bother giving me a shit excuse, WHAT?
Charlie, where's the fire in the fucking booth? (Perfect)
Nerf it, waiting for the truth, boy
What the fuck you doing though?
Complaining to the wishing well, you waiting for that visual, ha
Impatient, will you listen though?
I'm thinking when you get the dough, you sharing it between us all, huh?
Maybe not but I dunno what you asking me to listen to, it don't rock
Praying lots, who the fuck's gonna listen, motherfucker? Go and rot
I'm sorry if I talk my mind a bit, you know
I'm worried that you all will leave if I don't ever f-low
About the dumbest shit and make it hot, let's fucking go
And cop the hook from J. Cole, you know
So put your hands in the air now, hands in the air (fuck it)
Hands in the air now, hands in the-
I don't need to put my hands anywhere, I don't care, living life, amazing, yeah
Looking there, should I spare a moment, should I be prepared?
To declare everything that's on my mind, oh, then and there?
Acting square, oh, beware, trusting me is far from fair, ha
Honestly, I do consider myself a fool
Falling in love, what a pain, I kept it cool
I never said a thing to anyone at all
But I need to let it out before I lose my cool
Like, it fucking hurts, dude
Wondering if I'm just feeling down when that's my fucking mood
Yeah, that shit's the worst, dude
But anyway, let's get all hype again, just fuck the truth and put your
Hands in the air now, hands in the air, fuck it
Hands in the air now, hands in the air, fuck it
Hands in the air now, hands in the air (in the air)
Hands in the air now, hands in the air (fucking air)
And I'll let the beat play for a bit (for a bit, motherfucker)
It's a hit, it's not Friday, never is (everybody loving K, motherfucker)
And I hoping somebody respects the kid (won't hold my breath, motherfucker)
Cause this the tale of an up-and-comer, bitch (yeah, it's about me, motherfucker)

[Outro]
Yeah, it's about me, motherfucker
Living 'till I'm free, motherfucker, uh
