That's fantastic But everybody thought it was jokes though; they half right, the joke is I got flow so don't act like You ain't sittin there with your friends like, it can't be I know Donald Glover, he weak man, he campy I'm still knocked down, but I up the ante Me and hip-hop, that black Sid and Nancy [Chorus] [Childish Gambino] It's hard to make Hov' the footsteps you followin Especially when your niggaz look like Carlton The pretty girls usin skin so soft Only be likin black dudes with their hats broke off Nigga you act too soft; fuck you! I'm from the projects My mom was just workin to give me options No live shows, cause I can't find sponsors for the only black kid at a Sufjan concert Yeah so, what'cha gonna do man? You won't speak to the hood, man If I was given one chance I think I could, man These black kids want somethin new, I swear it Somethin they wanna say but couldn't cause they embarrassed All I do is make the stuff I woulda liked Reference things I wanna watch, reference girls I wanna bite Now I'm firefly like a burnin kite And youse a fake fuck like a fleshlight Even dudes who like me straight lookin at me crazy Like, "How the hell you drop a EP and meet Jay-Z?" Girls used to tell me I ain't cool enough Now text me pics sayin' "You could tear this up" I don't really like shades, big rims, or jewelry But gettin time of day from a model is new to me Bein me isn't as hard as it used to be Now everyone sing the chorus man, you do it so beautifully [Chorus] - repeat 2X minus "firefly" the second time
