Meghan taught me 'bout boundaries, I'm astounded
I was running 'round, running myself into grounded
Take my shoes off in the backyard to rebound
And get back to feeling like Ash Roth!
Harder than imagined, distractions lead to inaction
I just happen to rap, ain't ask for this, pessimistic activist
'Bout to have a kid, feel the magic in the asterisks
There's a risk of something bad happening, that's happiness
If happy is just an illusion, revert to childish
If all of this is all so confusing then don't acknowledge it
Products that your bodies are using are used to tarnish
All the beauty that is outside computers pursuit of knowledge
If you was in your second year too when "I Love College" dropped
Then you would understand what we used to do down in Hotlanta
Didn't go to Mardi Gras, stayed home, had a party, bruh
Had an out-of-body experience out at Margaret's bar
Fell in love with an Indian girl but never talked to her
Then became the victim of a narcissistic marketer
Flipped my entire existence into a harbinger
These bars are the antithesis, best become a carpenter
Or the most consistent lyricist this side of Mississipp'
Not a miss or skip, shouts to K.R.I.T
Shouts to little kids who wish to spit like this
I wish it is, was as simple as
But it isn't, it's some talent Mr. Ripley-ness
Valiant accepting the challenge to try to channel it
Wrote a hit by using Grimes voice, it was a ballad, is
Anonymity a real win for my serenity?
While the internet sucks you into the infinity
Vanity can only lend itself to the insanity
Man at peace shop for antiques when it's Grammy week
Believing what another man speaks, man, I can't agree
Gotta read, do my own seek understanding
But who are you?
(Learn how to live)
But who are you?
(Need another, hope you don't need another life to learn how to live)
But who are you?
But who are you?
(Need another life)
But who are you?
But who are you?
(Hope you don't need another life to learn how to live)
Ash Roth
