Lapiz
Lyrics
I don't even know how to write this It's 4am my mic is on the night shift My eyes packing bags like they're righteous Self-righteous bout to get me some sleep Some shut eye with the woman in the white dress She nice but my flow is the nicest I don't have to think so I just am I don't have to try just know I can I'm just kidding it's my attempt at being cocky I'm not flashy no need for paparazzi Too over-exposed they try to copy But the pen's mightier than the sword son Yeah peep the lapiz Yeah peep the lapiz That's Spanish for pen Yeah that's Spanish for pen But it's not though it's Spanish for pencil It's Spanish for pencil Damn I had it written yo I had it written right here "Spanish for pencil" And I know that Spanish Why'd I say Spanish for pencil Oh shit I've got family members that don't even like my songs I got other ones they don't even know that I spit I got fake fans they fake 'cause they think I'm legit Well they think I'm legit so eh People smell fame then they try to milk you for it But I'm lactose intolerant I don't give shit I don't give a damn honestly I ain't got no plans I just flow like water You can call me the Thames I might even unite a kingdom like Puffy for bands While the bands make 'em dance with cheesecake in their hands Fresh off the Brooklyn Bridge with the Sandman No footsteps behind me 'cause we're on concrete This is modern day America can't get too deep Gotta seem surface like emerging islands Gotta stay sur - faced like bottles smiling Go from Puerto Rico like US Virgin Islands Can't believe I did that Pencil - it's supposed to be lapiz is (Just do the chorus) Yo it's the lapiz thing it's just bothering the hell out of me Lapiz I said it's not boligrafo Album got pushed like five times Back to the future no Delorean No release date no Gregorian calendar to change, huh What was meant to Car crash now I'm driving up in a rental Life shaping up yeah grab a stencil Grab a pencil Grab a utensil I eat you eat we all break bread Break dance homie now we all Club Med Separate hotel rooms we all got beds No sleeping on the tour bus Window shopping in the mall like we're tourists It feels good that we can afford us Basic necessities like a mortgage Got a house with a crib Got my son a dollhouse with a baby crib (You got your son a dollhouse?) Shit, can I live? I just want I just want to apologize for all my fans Because see I actually speak Spanish I went to in Puerto Rico So I know that lapiz is pencil and boligrafo is pen But I mean Not many people say boligrafo You know what I mean It's too many syllables So that's why I said lapiz in the beginning But you know I meant it's Spanish for pencil You know my grandmothers last name is Delgado I used to live right in the center of Puerto- I speak Spanish I'm bilingual I don't want you to discredit me My name is Decora De Corazon you know from the heart I know that lapiz I know that lapiz is pencil Lapiz
