What's Up Fatlip? - FATLIP
Text Poem by Jake Butler
FEELING
Down
Trodden
Fresh
kid
turned
ROTTEN
I can't believe how
NAIVE
That I've gotten
OVER THE YEARS
SEEMS LIKE
I'M GETTING DUMBER
Reminiscing to a time when I was
YOUNGER
with a
HUNGER
FULL OF
DREAMS
DETERMINATION
Self Esteem
But now it seems
They hesitate to be
On my
TEAM
You know the routine
When You
Winnin'
They're
Grinnin'
All up in your face
like they was wit' you from the
BEGINNIN'
But on the
FLIPSIDE
When you washed up like a
Riptide
Fools clown 'bout how you slipped and let'
SHIT
SLIDE
Besides the fact my voice is wack
Clowns is runnin' 'round, talkin' 'bout I smoke
CRACK
Ain't got no homies that got my back
Yeah I'm a brother, but sometimes I don't
Feel Black
My girl is WHITE,
My game ain't TIGHT
Niggas who ain't seen me in a while be like
"DUDE, YOU AIGHT?"
