lyrics

[intro]
there it goes.
yeah, you gotta adjust yourself. [indistinguishable] here... is it ok? here, say something.
hello, hello?
wait, you can hear yourself. good?
good, ok.
yeah, we're fine.
oh... that's not bad!
yeah I know! you just need [indistinguishable]
that's pretty good. I'm gonna keep all this. it'll be interesting. just... take you on a trip into the mind of... Ash Kay.
uhhh
2017, 2nd Street
this is a rap I wrote, a few days before Halloween
yeah

[1st verse]
snowcone, flow as cold as a froyo
coming out the spout I'm spouting out my cold flows
with the bold quotes, and the old hopes
and the told woes that make you go like "oh no!"
rearrange the letters realize were in NoHo
yeah, so SoHo is no more
through my nose hole it’s going through a chokehold
but still I’ve got it in a chokehold
came to my brain with complacence it remained
changed up my ways then I made it pave the way
plane is delayed and it’s swaying so astray
and this ain’t complaining but it’s taken triple-7 days
I’ve got a show whether you show or you don’t show
and I’m more at home if I go than if I don’t go
but after it’s over I don’t wanna go home
I’m feeling sober off all these folks that I don’t know
like low key I’m lonely despite my homies
got this fake weighted chain so I cry out poor me
capable of great change I threw out my old me
but he never knew me and the new me doesn’t know me
they just wanna sue me and the other ones consume me
and I don’t know (what to do see/it's a doozie)
well whatever way the vote goes
my soul has been sold, so you can read what I wrote
I mean I’m basically exposed so-
brrrrrah!

[interlude]
aw man I ran out of breath... yeah.
that was pretty good. ok... let me have another go at this. second time's the charm. ahem. yeah!

[2nd verse]
topping up the cone is a fucking hemisphere
covered up in colors that are looking really weird
like with purple green and gold making up a rainbow
but we’re more accepting of LGBTs and queers
he and she and you and me are making up a we’re
and this place date and time are making up a here
now we’re here getting faded off of 27 beers
tipsy only give a shit about whatever’s near
and the things we hold dear
I can barely hear
how are they expecting me to tell 'em bout my year
or what I’m doing in a year or what I’m doing up in here
man I don’t know shit man I’m stupid up in here
swear that I could really use a tutor up in here
cause I was screwing up in here
now I’m screwed up in here
throw a party up in here act retarded up in here
the last thing I wanna do is stay in a room up in here
that’s a life over there that’s getting ruined out of fear
time’s to you as a car in the dark is to a deer
cause it tears you up and leaves you in tumultuous tears
never good enough no matter how much we prepare
shit is rare when we aren’t ever suiting up in gear
even shooting at our peers so maybe it’s not so weird
that we’re not so austere and we’re steering from the clear
if life is a carnival we’re waiting for concessions
cop a shiny Audi car cause it’s the new obsession
drive it on the Autobahn or shit would be depressing
bought myself an audemar now I’m feeling reckless
it wouldn’t be so far fetched to call us all feckless
better yet incompetent our acting’s ineffective
my sense of defense is just being inoffensive
and since my inception that’s an obvious confession
and it’s to mixed reception but I hit up those receptions
always make my best attempt to murder all my sessions
craving for the excellence of all my predecessors
well whatever man this nameless chase is getting so expensive
I don’t even know where I go or where my thoughts go
but they spin and dance and they prance when I’m all alone
at first glance we’re at home go and get our 44's
then we going po! po! at the poor po-po, woah!
brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrah!

[outro]
yeah
deadmau5 got beats
GAWN's got this heat
GAWN's on these beats
all eyes on me
what'll I do? we'll see
I don't know yet
Beat Jacker. June 26. 2019. keep an eye out. yeah, I'm out. peace

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME HAVE A NICE DAY
