Since I'm in the position to talk to these kids and they listen I ain't no politician but I kick it wit em a minute Cuz see they call me a menace and if the shoe fits I wear it But if it don't then y'all will swallow the truth, grin and bear it Now who's the king of these rude ludicrous lucrative lyrics Who could inherit the title with the youth and the spirits Using his music to steer it, sharing' his views and his merits But there's a huge interference, they're saying' you shouldn't hear it Maybe it's hatred I spew, maybe it's food for the spirit Maybe it's beautiful music I made for you to just cherish But I'm debated, disputed, hated, and viewed in America As a motherfucking' drug addict, like you didn't experiment That's when you start to stare at who's in the mirror And see yourself as a kid again, and you get embarrassed And I got nothin' to do but make you look stupid as parents You fuckin do-goobers too bad you couldn't do good at marriage And do you have any clue what I had to do to get here I don't think you do so stay tuned and keep your ears glued to the stereo Cuz here we go, these *gibberish*, and I'm the sinister, Mr. kiss my ass is just a...

Media scapegoat, they can be mad at today See it's as easy as cake, simple as whistling Dixie while I'm wavin the pistol at sixty Christians against me Go to war with the Mormons, take a bath with the Catholics in holy water no wonder they try to hold me under longer I'm a motherfuckin spiteful, delightful eyeful The new Ice Cube, motherfuckers hate to like you What did I do? (huh) I'm just a kid from the gutter makin this butter off these bloodsuckers, cause I'm a muh'fuckin
