Some say that I got an ego Who me But they really don't know me though Don't say that I got an ego But they really don't know me though At war with the curse of vanity Threatening extension, born of my personality Balancing talents adorned with a verbal tapestry Traveling the planet armed with the forces after me Naturally, it's a common consensus Since I be so def that I be seen as pretentious That my ego tremendous Sometimes get the best of me Tough times when your rhymes stick to minds like telepathy I transcend it with empathy and a sense of astonishment At the depth and complexity of existence acknowledging all of it It ain't modest when we fishing for compliments for the smallest accomplishment Itching for recognition got you weighing what you're missing Playing your position creating competition You turn a friend to a foe feel like everybody lifting But you staying below victim of the ego The shadow within us schizophrenically led us to fits of jealousy Get us to drop guap we don't got for a thick gold link So we can walk around the block like our shit don't stink ya heard Some say that I got an ego Who me But they really don't know me though Don't say that I got an ego But they really don't know me though I try staying aware of it I'm conceited and proud and that's just the way of Americans I need to be loud repeat and tweet like a parrot And get completely surrounded by those who feeding my arrogance I'm making sweeping comparisons and to keep from embarrassment I reject any evidence that competes with my narrative But I kept an imperative to consider that possibly We get off being triggered by those with different philosophies In the name of religion we've committed atrocities Enslaved in a imprisoned those who don't share our mythologies Now a nation of Karens with overbearing entitlement Complaining and swearing they own the air and environment See we can't be right unless someone is wrong We need something to fight so we can feel like we're strong Someone gotta have less to make us feel we got more Can't feel like we're rich without another who's poor That's the core, the ego the shadow within us That go to battle and war convinced they rally against us Keeping tally and score of every thorn that had pricked us Schizophrenically torn between form and the witness, bitches Some say that I got an ego Who me But they really don't know me though Don't say that I got an ego But they really don't know me though
