You're on your own, and then, politics is in your life You have to ride the wave."

Hindu Ralph Ellison, yo you can't see me I'm in a silk robe at the bank copping CDs With guap that I made by selling these CDs And guap that I saved by having a great CV Yo yo yo yo yo, that's a Curriculum Vitae I could always say, "I did it my way." Got Vagabond shoes, and they stray all day The St. John's Way, to Bombay Project hallways If there ever is a problem Heems'll want to solve 'em My partner then'll solve him The jury'll absolve him The sentence of a mobster I can sense it, it's something like the Doppler Radar You're on my gay friend's gaydar Something like a leper, you can't touch me Never turn my brain off, it never get dusty Your chicks is busted, my chicks is busty Up late on Twitter, I talk to Salman Rushdie Like it's just me and him I got dirt on you, dog You like She & Him(?) Schemin' and All the biddies say to me, "You're swell."
