If it wasn't for the bass, 
I wouldn't need these hearing aids.
If it wasn't for mistakes, 
I probably wouldn't be here today.10 years ago 
I was 22.20 years ago 
I was 12.30 years ago 
I was 2.But when 
I came out my momma 
I was zero.
When I came out my momma 
I was zero. (x3)
I was zero when 
I came out my momma, and now everybody knows.
In the before life, 
I was undead.
I was home schooled, there were no rules.
But I gave it all up, just for the chance to go public.
A celestial scarecrow dancing with the puppets.
A tug in my gut, 
I'm carrying the world in my stomach.
I'm a surrogate mother-fucker the girls love it.
Birth the suffix and cut the visible string.
Controls much more than a physical thing.
I was born into it, and before 
I knew it.
I saw the students of poor gettin' hauled off to war.
The law of 
Judas in the land of the king's tax.
Partaking the 
Eucharist, then demand your kick-backs.
Spiritual wrist slap, please pass the sacrament.
Ask if big bad black 
Jesus was 
African.Selling a click track, call it a soul-clap.
It's all in how you package it.
The power of a magic trick.
Immaculate concepts, lost in the land of the cross.
I'm standing off with a man of the cloth.he knows the ins and out's and all 
I wants the outs.hes selling real estate for some place in the clouds.
But I'm not investing in intellectual property.
Inventing gender-bending technology.
Because maybe everybody needs to just become a sexual oddity.
Leaving birth to the test tubes and death to the lottery.
There's no one stopping me, 
I've gotta be self-regulating.
Wealth is escalating, but my poverty was entertaining.
I'm debating, the value of a caste system.
I'm cash backed for wars and wars funded by my tax income.
I find my part of the problem in part of me.
There's always been a difference between what 
I am and what 
I wanna be.
It's either 
Jihadist freak or 
Jesus seamster.
I heard god is cumming and shes a screamer.
I couldn't understand what she was telling me.
Why everyone thinks that they're their own worst enemy.
I followed the manual and 
I swallowed the skeleton key.
And it unlocked the hell in me.(So this is my gift to god!) 
Rippin' at my dick like a tourniquet, syphilis!(This is my gift to god!) 
I'm jumpin' out the cake, naked with a shank.(This is my gift to god!) 
Unwrap the package confetti made of maggots.(This is my gift)
