"Cancelled Culture"

#CounterCancelCulture

Man it’s a good thing that I’m flexible

If you been watching long enough you know my best move

Is to be reaching around painting black targets on my back

so that the next hack finds me accessible

An open book, if you’re looking for a thread to pull

You might find your free time finally eventful

But as you pull and pull just know that at the end of that thread

You might not like what you’ve exposed

All you children hiding in your parents’ attic

attacking the baddest. sad that your heroes all became “problematic”

Picking apart their every single word like it’s a habit

and happy to manufacture the truth just to push your status

it’s a passion for pain, a fashion of rage,

a lack of a shame that only makes you a flash in the pan

Can you Imagine a day with actual sane

And sober individuals? That’s pitiful.

Lets bash in their brains

Some men just like to watch the world burn

From Their safe space never learn

Never grow up. Save face Never show.

You will know them by the way they hide and fold up

And if they ever finally shoot me in the back

They’ll have to admit that they were always behind me

Firing blindly trying to find an attack

That would leave a mark

While admiring my scraps

The only thing you’ve ever made is people angry

Only human contribution is your silence

Kind of funny how you think that you’re a movement

Beating up your neighbor while you’re saying words are violence

I guess it’s not your fault the public school system failed you

You were trained for the jail or the military.

Still drinking the koolaid that you were raised to crave

I’m thinking for myself and I know that that that’s scary

All your mirrors are broken

You can’t see yourself

Since you just wanna be noticed

Take your shit to show and tell

I know you’re scared all the other

Kiddies in the class might laugh at you

Like you’ve been doin to everybody else

So you keep being soulless

I’ll keep being real

Yeah I’ll keep being real for the thrill of it.

Always the weird kid passed up in the line for kick ball

The difference is between you and me, I grew up and knew that

I needed to get some balls of my own

So you can call me the words you want

That’ll never change the way I see the world, ‘cause you’re of

Zero consequence to me, or my fam, or my wife,

Or my house, or my life, all the things that I am that you want.
