Tantrums
[NOM Chorus]
I throw tantrums in tandem with this tantalizing music
See, I vandalize the booth & make you analyze your blueprint
The way a n***a do it make you wanna join the movement
All the while I got your girlfriend fantasizing to it


[NOM verse 1]
Incredible mind, blessed with impeccable rhyme
My professional lines keep me from the federal time
I’m spitting heat when I rip a beat, I leave Ripley in disbelief
To cut a nookie rookie have him falling like he missing feet
With 20 annuals and no manuals, I’m mechanical with my mandible
A motherfucking animal
Look down, see how we living, got them livid
Looking like Jimmy Hendrix, hot boxing a Honda Civic
In the end, they'll either throw pedals or they'll throw pebbles
Bronze skin n***as hate to see me winning gold medals
But either way, I shine in the nighttime
Feeling like life is red bones and white wine
And I’m quite fine ‘cause I..

[NOM Chorus]
I throw tantrums in tandem with this tantalizing music
See, I vandalize the booth & make you analyze your blueprint
The way a n***a do it make you wanna join the movement
All the while I got your girlfriend fantasizing to it

[NOM verse 2]

‘Cause I’m the number one thing that’s on the hating man’s mind
‘Cause my whole rap rhetoric is greater than the sign
And my conglomerate spread from here to Atlanta
You see they call us bamas, cocking hammers, ‘cause you fed us propaganda
And my appearance probably hinders me from Augustana
Shocking people with my use of penmanship and proper grammar
It’s God given, descended from Zion, I rode in on a lion and took the belt from Orion
As I blackout and listen to A Tribe Called Quest
With some dirty ass vans and an IZOD vest
My best friends always telling me that I got next
And then we go and blow a zone just to fight off stress
We high off ses and this is all in the nighttime
Feeling like life is red bones and white wine
Really I’m quite fine ‘cause I


[NOM Chorus]
I throw tantrums in tandem with this tantalizing music
See, I vandalize the booth & make you analyze your blueprint
The way a n***a do it make you wanna join the movement
All the while I got your girlfriend fantasizing to it
