Jalapeño Cheese Lyrics

I don't sleep much anymore, but I stay dreamin

Name is Damon, it's Latin, I'm wicked, but I am no demon

Beowulf swingin' from chandeliers to a Sia song

Sing along like TV-theme credits for Nia Long

On the east side of Cleveland I was born and raised

But the southside is where I spend most of my days

I was a little bad kid, got into bad habits

No Tove Lo, but Toblerones was hidin' up in my jackets

Called faggot, gettin' hat tricks, devising other tactics

To be a cool kid, as if Mikey rocked back then

But back then, they didn't want me, I'm still the fuckin' same

And I swear on Grandma's grave that they'll all know my fuckin' name

It seems like everybody's tryin to be everything

Ooh

It seem like everybody's tryin to be everything

And I'm just tryin to be myself

I'm eatin' my mom's risotto but passin' on all the salmon

My cannon be snappin' candids of Candice out in Japan

And The Land has made me a man

Dammit, I'm no Sarandon

I'm Janet way back in 86

I am in control man

You better get with the program

It's funny as Seth Rogen

On Rogaine

Nirvana, but no Cobain

And it's all luck, like a Colts game

You think I'm amateur, you crazy as straight Jack

On the back porch of the house just stranglin' stray cats

Did you miss me (hah)

I'm back and I'm about to save rap

Cause see we undulating like hairs under a wave cap

It seems like everybody's tryin' to be everything

Ooh

It seem like everybody's tryin' to be everything

And I'm just tryin' to be myself

I'll rearrange your universe like Nicholas Copernicus

Marcus Smith in the building don't act like you ain't heard of us

When the party's over I'm giving daps and handshakes

Then fall asleep faster than my dude Govpancakes

Unpackin' all my adjectives to take 'em to school

Smith is the noun

I verb it all profound, dude

And I have such a proverbial sound (ooh)

Spittin' Bowser fireballs up inside the sound booth

I'm the bomb, like bleach and ammonia

Y'all some outcasts, I can smell the stank on ya

I'll scorpion your lady like "get over here, Sonya"

I'm reppin Cleveland hard

But bitch, I'm from Macedonia

It seems like everybody's tryin' to be everything

Ooh

It seem like everybody's tryin' to be everything

And I'm just tryin' to be myself

See, I've been tryin' to make a name for myself since I was 15

Get rich quick schemes

Stupid and not listening

History and science were subjects that I would get C's

Doodle every test and teacher would have a fit

She told me I was brilliant, astounding, that I'd do great things

And that really stuck with me as a college kid at 18

It may seem simple, to me, it was all amazing

Blazing paths I'd only seen up in my daydreams

But Day's dreams of playin' music throughout the day seemed

Too far-fetched, like there's a glitch upon my game screen

Today seems attainable, reachable, I can taste it

Like jalapeno cheese in the basement

It seems like everybody's tryin' to be everything

Ooh

It seem like everybody's tryin' to be everything

And I'm just tryin' to be myself

And I'm just tryin' to be myself
