about
Originally composed on piano, Right Above It is the rap song of a generation. Inspired by Lil Wayne, the master of rhyming the same word twice and lifting music from other artists. We love you Lil Wayne!
lyrics
It’s not the end of the world
It’s just a sign of the times
The machine that makes the vehicle
That drives all the bad things in my mind
I drink to kill the pain
I drink to live again
I drink to fuel the rage that leads to shame
And turns to pain again
I’ve broke my share of hearts
Been thinking ‘bout regret,
But I ain’t found a use
For feeling guilty yet
Good times they come, they go
And then there’s times alone
I just press rewind play it on slo-mo
And I let those tears go
I ain’t the only one
I know I’m not alone
To have been to hell and back
And come out of the flames with scars to show
We all have a past
But the future’s ours
It’s up to us to break those windows
Kill those cops, tear down those prison walls
Oh, I’m tired of this shit, been thinking bout myself
Been drinking by myself while you’re off with somebody else
Oh, I’m tired of this shit, been in a living hell
Climbing out of that coffin made of lies I told myself
You know I stay up late
Play Pokemon all night
With my dog Charlee Murphy
And my 40 of St. Ides
I find it hard to believe
The way I fly at night
That anything’s above me
Bitch, I get so fucking high
When my eyes are closed
My right hand’s on my machete
And when I’m wide awake
It’s on my Chevy’s standard tranny
They’re ballin’ on blu-rays
I’m reppin’ VHS
At least I can still watch Jedi
Before they remastered it
I can play banjo, I can play guitar
I play ukulele and I play the saw
On the keyboard, I’m your fearless leader
If I’m frontin’, call me Cassiopeia
You can call me the American Yolandi
But my ancestors are out in the Middle East
Where I come from, they’re speaking Spanish
Watch yourself or you just might vanish
Oh, I’m tired of this shit, been thinking ‘bout myself
Been drinking by myself while you’re off with somebody else
Oh, I’m tired of this shit, been in a living hell
Climbing out of that coffin made of lies I told myself
¿Quiero amor o quiero muerto?
Fuck it I just want somebody to hold
Dame tu corazon o dame la sol
Let’s play ten thousand cause I’m on a roll
Tomorrow’s top-charters are last year’s hits
Recycled bullshit, like, ‘now I’m on the remix’
Y’all motherfuckers can’t get with this
I’m an OG nerd, like Carlton on Fresh Prince
The government and news just spew lies
Hide it under our eyes in disguise and advertise
The politicians and the cops are crooks
I’ll say it deadpan like I’m fuckin’ Mel Brooks
They’ll tap your phones and ban your script
Turning economic agriculture into politics
Our culture’s run by capitalists
They sell you death and you buy it
Not just another girl, no I’m the main event
Center-stage in this circus like it’s fucking intense
If you want a dream girl, go back to sleep
Cause I steal hearts and play for keeps
Oh, I’m tired of this shit, been thinking ‘bout myself
Been drinking by myself while you’re off with somebody else
Oh, I’m tired of this shit, been in a living hell
Climbing out of that coffin made of lies I told myself
