9th Wonder
ThNks I get?
[Intro]
Maan, this is the thanks I get?

[Verse 1]
For lovin’ you?
You’re welcome for the late nights, early mornings
GarageBand recording through earphones most important
Constant positions meant to offend
Never chose you over them
My multitasking’s on 10
Convinced
You were ready, wasn’t pretending
And I’ve
Had the tendency to read between the lines
Of a rainbow
Refraction at it’s best
Reflection and dispersion of light in water droplets
Too weak (too weak,)
Too dense (too dense,)
(plus flimsy.)
You plus Lindsay can get the Fendi on go
But, we hug pennies
Gon put the Fendi on hold
I’m focused on the penmanship that led Kanye to Hov
(TIME FROZE.)
My show sold crickets
Zero tickets
‘All Time Low,’ no alternative living
(WHOA.)
Sippin’ to head like Robin Givens
Here’s a 5ive finger discount instead
Just f*cking listen
I done made a vision bed dependent of my intentions
Instead of bucking heads and winning
My prior vision was to let myself over the ledge
Define rhythm
Hit ‘em on the head with that 9-life Wisdom
5th Mission Impossible ties to politicians
My wisdom, possibly ties to my kitchen when
Under momma’s bosom she would feel her cherry blossom but
Sexuality to brothers and fathers in common
In 2019 I like chicks
What’s the problem?
We’re all norm-ventional, no more cons
Here’s the pros: professional bonds and longevity
Long distance calls is wrong
They get the best of me
Don’t take it personal
If life was worth it, to
You
Would be the first to know
That destinies are flexibles
No matter first to blow-
Jobs come and go
Two week notice
It was bogus locking doors
Giving tours for apartments that I could hardly afford
I was hardly ignoring the inclination toward
Lyrics sweeping the floor
Only touring the world
Supportive of my girl the closer we grew apart
The thanks I get for growing up, showing up, taking charge?
Destructive world order, my inspiration in scars
Hesitation to blowing up, pressure to keep it going
But it’s better late, than never showing up I suppose
(fast,) and Frivolous
Curious, Chivalrous
(furious, assed out)
Asked a fat amount about:
Keeping it real, appeal, mass murdering
Fox News ain’t the only PrimeTime squeals
Or vice versa
I’m certain
Hurting to get the word out
No matter credibility
“Surely We’ll Be The First Out!”
That’s how it felt watching XXL Freshman Class-
Mates run of the mill
And this the thanks I feel?
(for loving Hip-Hop)
But it’s my fault
Not having a résumé
Expecting a time vault would rewind me ahead today
Missing second chances
Advancements as heavyweights
Barely skipping classes
Reprimand my second place!
