| [Hook] Now when they see us on the streets
 All they wanna do is take pics
 And I'm like, okay (yeah, okay)
 And when they hear us on the beat
 All they wanna do is make hits
 And I'm like, okay (yeah, okay)
 And if you're feelin' like I'm feelin'
 How the world should be: perfectly
 Fire like I’m third degree, and suddenly
 Shawty, we got so high
 Fire Fly
 
 [Verse 1]
 Skateboardin' down at Washington Square
 Lookin' for quarters
 Maybe afford a falafel for dinner, ugh
 I’m so broke man
 Scholarship apology
 Facebook messages from college kids who hollerin'
 Girls like, "we love you, we go to LSU
 You gotta do a show so we can come and molest you"
 This rap stuff is magic
 I used to get called "Oreo" and "Faggot"
 I used to get more laughs when I got laughed at
 Oh you got a mixtape? That's fantastic
 But everybody thought it was jokes though
 They half right, the joke is
 I got flow so don't act like
 You ain't sittin' there with your friends like, it can't be
 I know Donald Glover, he weak man, he can't be
 I'm still knocked down, but I up the ante
 Me and hip-hop, that black Sid and Nancy
 
 [Hook]
 
 [Verse 2]
 It's hard to make HOV the footsteps you followin'
 Especially when your niggas look like Carlton
 The pretty girls usin' skin so soft
 Only be likin' black dudes with their hats broke off
 Man you act too soft
 Fuck you! I'm from the projects
 My mom was just workin' to give me options
 No live shows, cause I can't find sponsors
 For the only black kid at a Sufjan concert
 Yeah so, whatcha gonna do man?
 You won't speak to the hood, man
 If I was given one chance I think I could, man
 These black kids want somethin' new, I swear it
 Somethin' they wanna say but couldn't cause they embarrassed
 All I do is make the stuff I wanna write
 Reference things I wanna watch, reference girls I wanna bite
 Now I'm firefly like a burning kite
 And yousa fake fuck like a fleshlight
 Even dudes who like me straight lookin' at me crazy
 Like, how the hell he drop a EP and meet Jay-Z?
 Girls used to tell me I ain't cool enough
 Now text me pics sayin', "You could tear this up"
 I don't really like shades, big rims, or jewelry
 But gettin' time of day from a model is new to me
 Bein' me isn't as hard as it used to be
 Now everyone sing the chorus man, you do it so beautifully
 
 [Hook x2].
