JustLetMeCook. Lyrics

I'm in the belly of the beast

But life's still licking me

Life hits where it hurts

When I get to kicking it

The plot thickens it sickens me

Like the dickens time's ticking

While bigots bicker about who's bricking

Invisible walls stuck between us

So people sticking weapons in faces

Like problems go away easy and quick

And that's why I'm putting the work in

To quicken my wit and problem solve

I'll be picking the locks of my mind

Know I won't be easy Pickens

I'm cutting out fat picking up the pieces

Like I'm cooking chicken

Do you detect what I'm depicting?

I'm sipping drink eating good

Dipping in sauce 'til it's all over me dripping

I'm satisfied up til I'm practically flipping

But before this know that I'm mixing the pot

Like elixir

It was boiling hot bubbling like a blister

But I got to fixing a plate and a place to eat

It aches when I keep away

From fruits of life with no label

I must move hands and feet

And work for food to arrive at my table

I must be stable and able I can't skip a beat

Am I setting the scene at the right angle?

Before I take a seat I must set the table

It's eat or be eaten

Life wants to eat me

And it's time to eat

I'm in the belly of the beast

But life's still licking me

Life hits where it hurts

When I get to kicking it

The plot thickens it sickens me

Like the dickens time's ticking

While bigots bicker about who's bricking

Invisible walls stuck between us

So people sticking weapons in faces

Like problems go away easy and quick

And that's why I'm putting the work in

To quicken my wit and problem solve

I'll be picking the locks of my mind

Know I won't be easy Pickens

I'm cutting out fat picking up the pieces

Like I'm cooking chicken

Do you detect what I'm depicting?

Putting my own flavor in the recipe

My parents gave me

Call it addition

I've got mom's dad's and my own mix

Of admirable traits and addictions

I been itching to trash traditions

And make decisions that will bring

A new menu into my children's vision

And I can't be letting them taste the same tastes

That I thought rotten when I was a kid

I'm not kidding

But we also not fixing to eat out every day

Because I isn't

About to have spoiled rotten kids

That's always throwing fits

And got me gritting my teeth

I got to cook for me and mine

Even if all we got is some beef

And I'm still sizzling

I'm in the belly of the beast

But life's still licking me

Life hits where it hurts

When I get to kicking it

The plot thickens it sickens me

Like the dickens time's ticking

While bigots bicker about who's bricking

Invisible walls stuck between us

So people sticking weapons in faces

Like problems go away easy and quick

And that's why I'm putting the work in

To quicken my wit and problem solve

I'll be picking the locks of my mind

Know I won't be easy Pickens

I'm cutting out fat picking up the pieces

Like I'm cooking chicken

Do you detect what I'm depicting?

Are you getting what I'm spitting?

Sometimes it's getting so hot

That the kitchen burns down but listen

Long as I'm still walking around

Above the ground

I could build it back up from the ground

And hear the clicking sound of the grill

When I'm about to cook up

Like meat by the pound

I'm saying nice to meet nice to meet

Nice to meet in different towns

Like I am driving a food truck around

I'm saying nice to meet

Nice to meet in different towns

Like what I'm cooking up they looking up

Like what's that smell

And what's that sound?

I'm in the belly of the beast

But life's still licking me

Life hits where it hurts

When I get to kicking it

The plot thickens it sickens me

Like the dickens time's ticking

While bigots bicker about who's bricking

Invisible walls stuck between us

So people sticking weapons in faces

Like problems go away easy and quick

And that's why I'm putting the work in

To quicken my wit and problem solve

I'll be picking the locks of my mind

Know I won't be easy Pickens

I'm cutting out fat picking up the pieces

Like I'm cooking chicken

Do you detect what I'm depicting?
