Childish Gambino Pound Cake (freestyle)
[Verse]
Let him speak – I know I'm Meek, but the mills are louder
Watch the throne, kings kill when the prince feels power
It's the real deal, holy feel, holy shit, holy grail
Silver spoon coon, young buffoon, yeah, they know me well
I'm makin' moves, couldn't lose, doin' Parker Lewis
Hot on my own, self-immolate, I could be a Buddhist
Hot on my own, check your tone, check your stance, homie
You don't even like me, you just tryna get my fans, homie
So nerdy but the flow wordy – brain-freezing with the flow slurpy
Ice cold but you know I burn cash like I had herpes
Not true, but I'm that dirty
Niggas quit bein' hot, man, cold turkey
While I'm out in Kauai, man, soul searching
And these niggas be afraid, and I'm so certain
'Cause they don't know what to do when the world's berkin'
A lot of people try and go and talk shit
But your girl stopped me on the street like a stop-and-frisk
And a bunch of DDot's wanna talk a lot of shit
But that's cool, 'cause in the real world they really don't exist
It's all Because The Internet...
Chance made millions, Haim made millions
Dan made millions, Kendrick made millions
I would too if I wasn't in my feelings...
[Interlude]
You know, 'cause... the people say money's not everything
(But... you need money to do what you wanna do...
Money is power, honesty is power, truth is power
You know what I'm saying? That's what I'm saying
But at the same time they be tellin' you...
[Verse 2]
“There ain't nothin' more important than the moolah”
“You ain't really eatin', boy, you've got to get your food up”
We so steady eatin', baby, you already know that
The way I'm droppin' new shit like I'm sittin' on the toilet
Every night I tour, that moment – but we don't take pictures
'Cause when you're rich you just see it again
The only thing they really worry about is me in the pen
Wrote some shit on Instagram, I'm just being honest
They tried to give your boy pills like I'm being violent
They tried to give your boy pills just to keep him silent
Keep telling people the truth, you could be iconic
They tried to give your boy pills, like “he's scaring us”
Tried to stay inside, I don't really like appearances
I tried to stay inside, but I've still got something to say
Are you still on the show, are you dating Jhene?
...it's deeper than that
Calico inside a handbag, I'm keepin' a cat
I've got some niggas on reserve like I'm deep in Iraq
And I'm deep into rap and it's deeper than rap
This is deeper than rap...
[Outro]
Cash rules everything around me...
Cake, cake, cake, cake, birthday cake
Black and white, yo, that's a zebra cake
Pancakes... wedding cakes..
