The Detour

Lyrics

Yo
 See every once in a while you gotta switch it up
 Do a little somethin' different from the norm
 We'll be back on track soon, don't worry
 But for now?
 This is The Detour
 Yeah
 This shit is simple when you think about it
 I'm writin' my life but everytime I rap they seem astounded
 So here I got a new album for you to fight for
 I don't think they understand that this the shit that I would die for
 Better start the cipher 'cause I'm shittin' on these MCs everyday
 They're stoppin' your record halfway through
 And my shit is still getting replayed
 And yeah I've been listenin'
 And gettin' real sick when everything sounds the same
 I rip some beats that knock your brain around
 They talkin' Dr. Dre
 Fame
 That shit is made up
 When I came up
 On the scene, they
 Really hate us
 Then I realized
 They afraid I'm
 Gonna stay up writin' all this shit
 They off in the club so lit
 They gone to impress some chicks
 And I'm off on a mushroom trip
 Like so sick
 Flippin' delivery
 Everyone trynna to stop and to limit me
 Catchin' a buzz and I had an epiphany
 Fuck everybody that's up in the industry
 I just be goin' off into infinity
 Yeah I'm above and beyond
 And the only white dude doper than me
 His hair was blonde (damn fuckin' right)
 Y'all still starin' huh
 Yeah I don't blame it's natural
 They all said fuck an emo rapper
 I said fuck you back so
 I'll just keep talkin' 'bout my life and struggles with depression
 You can talk about the block and how you garnished all your weapons
 You ain't pulled no trigger homie
 And I ain't no gangster either
 I'm just dope enough that I never had to lie to be here
 Y'all don't see clear
 I got this 20-20 vision
 This comic nerd is kind of absurd
 They're turnin' me into a villain
 But I got no ceilin'
 When you think that you got me cornered, nah
 I'll take the story flip the fuckin' script like M. Night Shyamalan
 See I'm an atom bomb with every song right when I drop it
 It's the equivalent of Wakanda when Thor stops in
 A Stormbreaker for born haters with sore pockets
 You store play-doh, I'm tornadoes with more hot shit
 And they be talkin' but you're all silent so insecure
 Thinkin' you're dope but you were graded on a wicked curve
 There ain't nobody else poppin' with credit that's deserved
 I had to stop along the way to school y'all, The Detour
 Yeah
 So you can hate, that's what a hater do
 No wonder why my Spotify still got way more plays than you
