Lyrics

Yeah, uh It's comin' up, right? Yeah Yo, yeah, yeah Y'all some drugs testers My guess is, I won't be on your guest list I'm unimpressed with doin' press kits I'm good on lookin' desperate I'm on the intersection exit, just missed a pedestrian Been etched in stone for years and still I got room for perfection Sometimes I random check it Just to see if I still got it, to see it is still shockin', I'm- Was lost for words I be lost for words Still sellin' out arenas and of course some merch Got my Emmy nomination, I directed my first Docu-series, the EGOT is near me Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony, this is not no theory Pourin' bottles of Hennessy, got me talkin' choppy Over sample chops from Chauncey, I'm- I'm lost for words (word) Was lost for words My mom told me, "Clean the room, never shop with savings, son" Great to have it now but when it triples, shop to death I had a key around my neck on a string, a curfew, yes A time to be back at my rest, and my peers, I will protect There was pee all on the steps, slipped when our sneakers got wet Scared to grab that TEC, but I had to get my respect, I was- Wow, was lost for words My guess is someone'll replace your soul A.I. is only here to replicate and control Imitatin' the original then grabbed them a mold Of the binary code, it's your patterns they stole This my tactical flow, the one they can't redesign You can redo the voice, but you can never read my mind, I'm- Was lost for words These times got me lost for words, that says a lot for a wordsmith From the free cheese line to Prezi watch since my first shit My old Earth left, and she was here since my first steps Therefore, my first words, I asked her where was my work desk To put rulers to paper, draw measurements, use 'em later Punch numbers in calculators, I'm happy to say I made it, I'm- Lost for words, I'm speechless I'm lost for words at the state of my nation's consciousness Either you woke or nationalist is the politics I'm lost for words for Black babies with low confidence "You could do it too if I win," says the optimist You ever see a wordless book? That does not exist Say no more, I move letters like Don Cornelius Rest in peace Lost for words, I'm speechless (Lost for words)
