Pretender Lyrics

Got a type of energy inside of me

Not everyone is gonna vibe with

Both friends and enemies

So do you know what time it is

Time for the Martian to hop on a beat

And spit like I'm part of the elite

Go insane like I'm half-human, half-beast

Out of this earth since I was a kid standing up for myself

Listening to music, lip-syncing in the mirror

Can you imagine the way I felt

And I haven't changed, so much energy like I'm juiced up, minute maid

Bars so sweet like a jello cake

Got so much pent-up rage

Need to unload like a twelve gauge

Drop the bomb on 'em

Level this landscape, down with the Kings and the Queens

To the level of the pawns

There is a civil war going on (hell yea), I'm missing out on all the fun (yep)

I'm ready with the pen in my palm (yea)

I'm born for this, grew my competence

Working on my confidence, got way too much love for this

Put my soul in this

My everything

But there is something I miss

The crown of the king

Call me a pretender

One who is getting better

Forever, and ever

I created my personality in a small town

Far from a city boy

But I got big dreams, no doubt

Using my voice, that's what I'm about

Do you get the point

Yeah motherfucker, listen right now

I've always been plagued by inner doubts

Gimme a beat and I will wreck it

While wearing my black leather boots and jacket

In love with the craft my precious

This is who I am my message

The alien from the clouds, I may be from a small town

Alienated from the crowd, feet missing from the ground

In reach for the crown, my rightful beloning

Being a Baron, fuck that shit sounds so boring

Listen, don't start bitching about my ambitions

What do you expect from a guy who sounds so different

Exotic maybe, so foreign

I represent the diasporic

Put my soul in this

My everything

But there is something I miss

The crown of the king

Call me a pretender

One who is getting better

Forever, and ever
