"Eat Your Feelings" lyrics
(feat. Video Dave, Method Man)
(from "The New Negroes (Season 1)" soundtrack)
[Open Mike Eagle:]
I ain't never ate like this before
You don't understand
You don't know what I've been through
Nah' mean?
You 'bout to go above and beyond right now
Hungry
I grew up in a food desert
Ate dirt, I'ma do better
Y'all old school, I got new cheddar
I said fuck food, I'ma chew sweaters, yeah
I bought me a Rollie so I could eat the stones
I'm poppin' little bitty bottles 'cause I drink cologne
What that mean? It mean yesterday, I ain't have things
I was tired of having these black beans
So today I'm eatin' that flat screen, yeah
On my boulevard, we ain't got no cookie jar
For dessert we eatin' Michael Jordan rookie cards
That's big league
Money salad, that shit's green
And I'm home snackin' on comic books
Amazing Fantasy 15
Feed me fashion, I'm Galactus
Chewin' on your universe
Keep your sushi, I'm too bougie
Fry me up that Gucci purse
They said dinner's at 9, I pushed for earlier
I pushed the menus aside and said cook this furniture
[Video Dave:]
I got that brand new money, yeah, I just got paid
I'm tradin' macaroni for them gold rope chains
Now that I got mils, I'll eat grills, I'll eat hundred dollar bills
I'm feelin' like a million bucks, baby, I eat how I feel
[Method Man:]
I don't eat food, no, I eat the plates
All the forks and knives 'fore we speak the grace
Want the birthday candles, I don't need the cake
I bite the hand that feeds me 'fore I eat the grapes, yeah
Expensive taste, I eat Louis sandals and even Gucci
Groupies with edible drawers but we just eat the coochie
My ex, hah, if I eat the cookies, that's ex box
Little Playstation with some red hot
She got junk food and I'm Red Fox, yeah
If only Barbie knew, she'd bar me from the barbecue
After I eat the bar and grill, I might eat Barbie too
Yeah, that white girl, that tie laced too tight, girl
Whether snack or meal, she with the man of steel
So I'ma keep on feedin' her pipe, girl
Put that cracker on a cracker then I feed it to the birds
Make a rapper eat a wrapper, then I make him eat his words
Come gat these nouns and verbs, get what you now deserve
I sprinkle sugar on shh, and call it Brown 'N Serve, yeah
I ain't never ate like this before
You don't understand
You don't know what I've been through
Nah' mean?
You 'bout to go above and beyond right now
Hungry
I grew up in a food desert
Ate dirt, I'ma do better
Y'all old school, I got new cheddar
