This exercise came from no one offering deals
And all night listening, going through beats I feel
And long drives in pre-owned automobiles
Spitting bars like this all over my steering wheel
I'm so far out of character, I swear
But it feels as good as any extramarital affair
I may or may not be temporarily impaired
So pretend these words are just experiments with air
You know this era lost its principles
When love is fictional and hatred's unconditional
They made envy and entitlement invincible
And all the winners are the targets of the miserable
Well, I am no performer, musical or visual
So if you hear other voices here, don't be cynical
Make sure you remember this before you get critical
That is still my penmanship behind every syllable
Ten thousand reps down, ten million more to go
In the lab right now, I think I found the antidote
Ten thousand hours in, ten million more to go
In the lab's where I've been, doing this all on my own
Ten thousand reps down, ten million more to go
In the lab right now, I think I found the antidote
Ten thousand hours in, ten million more to go
In the lab's where I've been, doing this all on my own
I had to be a businessman unexpectedly, suddenly
With no big advance, this is really me funding me
With no middle man, pay me what's agreed plus a fee
To my limited liability company
I went back and I studied just to see how business is
Haven't asked anyone for a feature ever since
Kept my masters and publishing to reap the benefits
Not bad for the son of an illegal immigrant
No one taught me how to write as much as half a bar
No one taught me how to read a contract at all
Twice the effort and the time to get me half as far
So if I give it up, I absolutely have to charge
Now I got some techniques with the flow
It only took two hundred eight weeks in a row
It only took a thirty-three thousand dollar loss
To see that one mistake can mean it's over for the boss
Ten thousand reps down, ten million more to go
In the lab right now, I think I found the antidote
Ten thousand hours in, ten million more to go
In the lab's where I've been, doing this all on my own
Ten thousand reps down, ten million more to go
In the lab right now, I think I found the antidote
Ten thousand hours in, ten million more to go
In the lab's where I've been, doing this all on my own
