GATEKEEPER Lyrics by Pertinence

CHPT. 11: S.i.A

2024

Stop gatekeeping me please
Lead the generation of kids who don't give a shit
Time to lift the curtain, let's see what's under the sheets
Husky little fucker with a couple crooked teeth
Fam in Arizona so it's colder where I be
Buddy started beef and he end up command-z
LOLOL, who the fuck I'm supposed to be?
This is not a drill, running out of energy

Another hook, another verse, another fucking melody
Tryna break the trauma my father passed on to me
LOLOLOL, got hella еnemies tryna dim my light
But they can't ovеrshadow me
You can't join the club, you don't know the password
Goofy motherfucker, I'm a pro last-laugher
Industry standard, so ass-backward
Half the game chasing ghosts
Oh, so Casper

Stop gatekeeping me please
I got bills to pay, and plus, my homies gotta eat
Girls across the world that be talking in Japanese
Don't know what they saying, but they looking good to me
Saw you at the party, huh, sorry, gotta sneeze
Excuse me for a second, I got fuckboy allergies

Most of y'all still kiddos, L.A. is a jungle gym
Full of make believe, it's the shit you wouldn't believe
Where people pay an arm and a leg just to reach they peak
Fall off of the mountaintop and end up amputees
Never been in balance, but recently I'm intrigued
Saw an angel number, had to act like I agree
Come up on my family, the metric is loyalty
Couple thousand difference ain't no difference to me

Where the inspiration, huh?
Look at how they live
Hating on another making triple what they did
In fact, behind the aura there's another troubled kid
Separated from reality, as long as he logged in
Probably off the marijuana, smoking at his mama crib
Sitting, soaking in the darkness, probably longing to get rich
Couple stains atop his collar, having trouble with his chick
Working 9 to 5 up at the diner, tired of clocking in

Me, I keep on chasing commas, can't possibly comprehend
Track my progress, I'm a dominos
Vámonos, get the bread
Where I'm from, you see all kind of clowns, kinda like Simon Says
Had to dip, I yelled "Geronimo", catapult off the ledge
Ever since it's been green rooms and sleepless nights
Shit, I should probably eat, but the beat's too nice
Oh, you need some advice, bro? Lose your vice
Charcuterie and cheese, white vino on ice
Damn, all this off a dream, manifested this life
It came with a price, spent a lot on devilish plights
The luck of the dice, ate a lot of ramen and rice
Made a couple tough decisions but the kid alright

It's like you can't sell out a show, ain't never grip no mic
How you gonna establish love? You only in it for likes
How the fuck you giving up? Only attempted it twice
They only love you in the club until they dim those lights
And that just couldn't be me
