[Intro]
Uh, My Name Is My Name
My Name Is My Name
Yes, look
W-W-W-What is it?
[Verse]
Twenty-plus years of selling Johnson & Johnson
I started out as a baby-faced monster
No wonder there's diaper rash on my conscience
My teething ring was numbed by the nonsense
Gem Star razor and a dinner plate
Arm & Hammer and a Mason jar, that's my dinner date
Then crack the window in the kitchen, let it ventilate
'Cause I let it sizzle on the stove like a Minute Steak
N***a, I was crack in thе school zone
Two beepers on me, Startеr jacket that was two-toned
Four lockers, four different bitches got their mule on
Black Ferris Bueller, cutting school with his jewels on
Couldn't do wrong with a chest full of chains and a arm full of watches
What I sell for pain in the hood, I'm a doctor
Zhivago, tried to fight the urge
Like Ivan Drago, "If he dies, he dies"
Like Doughboy to Tre, if he rides, he rides
Throwing punches in his room, if he cries, he cries
We don't drink away the pain when a n***a die
We add a link to the chain, inscribe a n***a name in your flesh
We playin' on a higher game of chess
Once you delegate his bills, who gon' fuck his bitch the best?
A million megapixels of the Pyrex
Started on the scale, digital, my only Timex
N***a, this is timeless, simply 'cause it's honest
Pure as the fumes that be fuckin' with my sinus
N***a, this is Simon Says, Simon, red
Blood on your diamonds 'til you dying, dead, yugh
[Outro]
My Name Is My Name
You better change what comes out your speaker
My Name Is My Name
You better change, ch-ch-change
Yeah, album of the year
Dee-dee-dee, dah-dee, dah-dee, dee-dee, dah-dee, day-ah (What is it?)
