"take the bait" lyrics

I don't got the time, or the patience, or bank slips
Money from the grind, when you die though it ain't shit
Slipping' on ice, would you like a crisis?
Whining over fuck nothing drama when all life is
Stuck on a spinning rock, middle of the void
Losin' marbles over Twitter talk, 'cause you got annoyed
That I got a voice
That I made a dumb fucking choice
Thumb-sucking little boys gettin' bored with their toys
No, I am not your daughter
Your wife or your role model
You aren't my boss, or my mom, or my dad
And you've gotta reassess if the shit make you sad
Why they gotta beat on us? Just 'cause they be bored?
Wipe the Dorito dust off that keyboard
Give it a thought or two, 'cause I am as odd as you
I cannot deliver even half what they promise you

"No don't get angry, listen, that's what they want!"
They sniff out those who react to their bitchin', isn't that how they hunt?
This is the internet, may I snap back and call you a -?
(Don't say that)
Miss so cool and untouchable "I don't give a fuck"-able
Better than you any day front
Is a dumb stunt
And damn, I got tired
The chains of fame have my brain flying much higher than desired but
"No shot? She's gonna bitch and whine about being famous!"
You do not get to turn around and deflect half where the blame is
Listen

I tell myself that (Tell myself)
Life is good (Life is good)
Life is good (Life is so good)
Oh, yeah
(Turn the noise down, drown it out)
Life is good... (Life is good)
Life is good...
(Keep your voice down, never shout though)
(So good)
Shut up and eat your food, girl

I'm an android mumbling, got no swag
I see sad boys stumbling, I take a jab
The tabloid ruffians plunge daggers in
Your obsession with professionalism is staggerin'
What kinda lifestyle you imaginin'?
What kinda stress do you think I'm managin'?
What has the algorithm handed them?
Rules, and we cannot abandon them
We gotta shut the hell up, and not say a God damn word
While the rest of the world gets to be heard
Shit is absurd, I'm done
(Cringe)
... but I'm still learning
Gotta have a little fun while shit's burning, though
I am hurting
As I go off, shit, I feel dirty
Wanna turn around, say I'm sorry
Reversing just isn't working
And a third thing, saying
LA LA LA
Closing your ears and ignoring is not a
Sure thing, sure-fire way to deflect hate
Back in the day, I was like you
Screaming "don't take the bait!"
... Wait
I better re-state
Or out of context, the wrong flex
Says I don't appreciate!
The shit is great, get to create
But that don't take away a bitch right to complain! We straight?
Look, everybody wants clout
Everybody wants to live forever in the cloud, but
We talk big, then we ditch the joint
Cancel every little wrong for the "PC" points
This song never gonna change a thing, what people do
All the same, words on a screen to you
Climb a mountain, or skydive, or seize the day
I wanna get away
I wanna get the fuck away now

I tell myself that (Tell myself)
Life is good (Life is good)
Life is good (Life is so good)
Oh, yeah
(Turn the noise down, drown it out)
Life is good... (Life is good)
Life is good...
(Keep your voice down, never shout though)
(So good)
Shut up and eat your food, girl

"This bitch hate her own fans."
But I didn't say that?
"Hates your guts if you're a man."
Nope, didn't say that
"Sayin' mainstream rap's all club shit" stance
Tell you for the last time that I never fuckin' said that!
If this is the only time
That I can ever snap back, imma cross the line
And I don't mind that the mainstream's got its shape
But y'all daydreaming thinking dat make my shit fake
Y'all gonna stay screaming thinking we don't make mistakes
We as in me and the other idols our fans take
Ain't no recital, it's real from the A.M
Vital opinions? Better not say them
This is the business of contents and mayhem
'Fore we keep dancing just like monkeys, can I get an amen?

Can I get an amen?
Can I get an amen?

I tell myself that
Life is good
Life is good
Oh, yeah
Life is good
Life is good
So good
(Hahahahaha!)
