lyrics

Yo, Yo listen!
I'm like a slugger when I put my mug up on the mic
There ain't no questionin' whether or not I'm gonna strike
That be a definite, deem me the precedent
Take a standard and settin' it, please don't fail to mention it
Don't even put a sentence in, I got you in a nutshell
Your girl punked you out and said you couldn't nut well
Try to conceal your shame with pretentious claims
But the fact remains, your name's in the same vain as lame
And that blame stems from you and whoever assembled your crew
If that doesn't render your view, you're probably due for a clue
See what I'm doin' is true. You're a mere fabrication
A compilation of degradation in consolidation
So call it hatin'. Nigga I'm a muhfuckin' statement
I made gold with a tape deck and a basement
To all you spoon-fed rappers being praised in the game
What's the point of "goin' in" if you gon' come out the same my nigga?

Chorus:
NO THEY CAN'T DO
No no they can't do
WHAT I CAN DO
Wh-what I can do
NO THEY CAN'T DO
They can't stand in my shoes
WHAT I CAN DO
They ain't got the right tools
NO THEY CAN'T DO
Belligerent fools
WHAT I CAN DO
They can't do what I do
NO THEY CAN'T DO
they can't do what I do
WHAT I CAN DO
uh yeah!

(continued)
NO THEY CAN'T DO
A yay yay yay yay yeah!
WHAT I CAN DO
A yay yay yay yay yeah!
NO THEY CAN'T DO
They can't do what I do
WHAT I CAN DO
They can't do what I do
NO THEY CAN'T DO
They can't stand in my shoes
WHAT I CAN DO
They ain't got the right tools
NO THEY CAN'T DO
No no no no
WHAT I CAN DO
Yeah, uh, woo

Trying to stump me, is like stabbin' a knife into concrete
That jab will vibrate and make ya hands-a-shake
Whan't that subtle? That's a metaphor for rebuttal
You niggas would have to huddle for a third of my brain muscle
Compared to my seas of thoughts, ya'll just swimmin' in a puddle
I can tell there ain't no room for intellect in your bubble
Pop! I fuckin' hate it, the culture is overrated
Full of imitators with sounds that are reiterated
But me, a coy boy with the pen as my toy
The kid at the lunch table that you try to avoid
'Cause he'll take a challenge and size it down to a false alarm
You ain't doin' him harm, just ignitin' the bomb
You punks need to reconsider
Either that or redeliver more correctly next time you step G
Inquisitive minds long to dwell in my psyche
I made this song so you can get a chance to sight see
Don't like it than bite me, at least you can try
But from the length of my eyes, your a faulty disguise
So I don't pay 'em no mind, nor give 'em the time
Poor excuses for rhymes, I need nooses to bind
Why bother to be consistent if your catalogue's weak
I swear people are just itchin' for a reason to speak
But at the end of the day, they just stuck in repeat
I'm calculated, but when I make it, you know that its heat, YEAH!

Chorus:
NO THEY CAN'T DO
No no they can't do
WHAT I CAN DO
Wh-what I can do
NO THEY CAN'T DO
They can't stand in my shoes
WHAT I CAN DO
They ain't got the right tools
NO THEY CAN'T DO
Belligerent fools
WHAT I CAN DO
They can't do what I do
NO THEY CAN'T DO
No no no no
WHAT I CAN DO
No no no no!


(continued)
NO THEY CAN'T DO
They can't do what I do
WHAT I CAN DO
They can't stand in my shoes
NO THEY CAN'T DO
They can't do what I do
WHAT I CAN DO
They can't do what I do
NO THEY CAN'T DO
They can't do what I do
WHAT I CAN DO
They can't stand in my shoes
NO THEY CAN'T DO
They can't do what I do
WHAT I CAN DO
No no no no

Ha! no no no no
Ha! they can't do what I do
Yo, they can't do it
Uh, c'mon!

Outro:
Yeah!
They can't do what I do (5x)
