Bars over Max Martin and Celine Dion's 90s collab with a nod to Run DMC

lyrics

Don’t cut you no slack like no stock in the app
I’m rocking Celine, ain’t talking the track
I’m talking Alpaca, cabrito cashmere
New from Buenos Aires, won’t settle for last year
Been maverick and cavlier
Call me Brendan Haywood
cuz I used to have convictions for a world that was tre good
Sentiments waivered
Like Haywood by Blazers
That was a callback, do your Googles a favor
Get my crypto to raise up, digital pay offs
you got fucked like cruises by waystar
Hey Ma – they say I’m rotten and rich
Not an optimist just an optimum bitch

I tried to care for a while but I didn’t have the energy
Selfish is my nature, no habitat for humanity
Hanging in the canopy, herbs in the spliff
I know one things for sure, I’m not working again
Pigs broke my homie’s limbs
They was out for the cause
For a better place to live
Got met with batons
I bounced from the block
Sped on my bike
Road out like a privileged thief in the night
Too complacent to fight, for what I know’s right
Cuz I got every streaming service in sight
Chat groups to write, DoorDash to order
AC in summer, heat starting autumn
Plus way to caught up, talking my shit
It's tougher to care but it’s simple to flex
