No matter what you say or what you do
When I'm alone, I'd rather be with you

A wit-heavy page: 12 of the 30 lines carry that theme, with life (9) and confidence (9) behind it. 27 are lyrics, from Be Alone, Bonfire, All The Shine, This Is America and many others, with 6 credited to Because the Internet and 4 to Camp. The jokes are pop-culture punchlines (Tang, IKEA, Jeff Goldblum), while Bonfire and All The Shine argue for being yourself in rap. The three interview lines, from Complex and Interview magazine, are about music as a release valve and about taste.
I'm not tryna come hard, I'm tryna come me
Music was my side chick, but now we’re moving in together
Life's the biggest troll, but the joke is on us
This is America
Don't catch you slippin' now
Set the game ablaze, I’m an arcade fire
Laughed at my rise like my motion was funny
Yes, ashy to classy, my lotion is money
Stay woke
Niggas creepin'
They gon' find you
Gon' catch you sleepin'
I used to care what people thought, but now I care more
Man, nobody out here's got it figured out, so therefore
What's the point of rap if you can't be yourself, huh?
Rap's stepfather, yeah, you hate me but you will respect
Told me I should just quit "first of all, you talk white!
Second off, you talk like you haven't given up yet"
The music is a release valve for me, because in comedy you're not really allowed to put yourself into it.
I'm in love with you, but this is not tennis
And baby stay stacked like she bad at Tetris
Every day gets hotter than the one before
Running out of water, it's about to go down
Took the G out your waffle, all you got left is your ego
I am runnin' this bitch, you are just a dog walker
People think I’m pretentious. I can be a snob. But I think in entertainment or art it’s important to know the difference between things
Anthony Bourdain wasn’t pretentious, but he definitely knew the difference between a dry-aged wagyu and a smash burger. Neither is better or worse than the other.
Don't be mad 'cause I'm doing me better than you doing you
You faker than some Sweet'N Low (Why?)
She got ironic tattoos on her back
That ain't ironic bitch, I love Rugrats
I've seen it all, like I'm John Mayer's penis hole
Furniture custom, you shop at IKEA
Show Maserati, you whippin' a Kia
Spendin' this money, it's longer than Nia
More green than my Whole Foods
And I'm too fly, Jeff Goldblum
And I'm out of this world like Tang, nigga
That's a space bar (Yeah), man, I hate y'all
I got a package like a gangsta, G-mail
She on Hollywood and Vine (Vine), thinkin' that she Hollywood on Vine (Vine)
Makin' movies with her friends all the time
Showin' off her ass, that's a net twerk (Twerk)
But I saw through it like a wet shirt (Hol' up)
Nigga still hungry, black Kobayashi
Nah nigga, yeah, we never stop
No period like menopause
