Esau

The first thing that I will write is white.

I’m white.

Like a white light in the bright night.

I’m a white knight.

I can write white, and I can write light.

And you can write left.

And I can lose you.

But this ain’t Blue’s Clues.

This is Whose News?

I’m a writer. I’m an all-nighter.

I’m a lover, not a fighter.

I get that money.

You think it’s funny.

I make my check do a flip, it’s like a bunny,

the way it’s hopping tummy.

I need that rummy tummy.

I need that funky monkey.

I need that stinky inky.

I need that pinky dinky.

And now, I’m in it now,

and I start grinning now.

It’s that percentage now,

it starts that trickle down.

That’s my man, man.

He’s the “man-man”

That’s ‘the man’, man.

I’m a manman.

That’s why I can’t stand a handstand.

If I stood up on my hands, I’d be upside down.

I don’t give a care, ’cause it’s my birthday now.

You stay on delay. I stay ándale.

You go to Jupiter, I stays there,

I don’t take no nothing from no noneornothing mayor.

If I was the mayor, I would pass a hear

that says I stays the mayor.

I’m stayer the mayor.

Stayer the mayor since befare my declare.

Before I said it like before: It’s befare.

That’s how it be. Befare the mayor was me.

Disagree?

See my name up in them records;

Don’t remember me,

Plus, I’m younger than them records.

But it never mattered,

Before you had it backwards

Because I’ve been mayor befare before bore bare

That’s just how I keep my money coming in.

And it’s ten thousand on my neck, so I start grinning.

It’s ten thousand dollars on my collar, and I pop it in Bahamas.

Yo mama, she calling mi llamo telling me kick-start her fundraiser.

Baby, I can’t give a care.

If I made mayor money,

I’d be the fucking mayor

Me’d be Edom E.

Major Money Mayor

Major Mayor Edom E.

Major Major Major Mayor

Talk about city laws, making moves, making frogs.

’Cause I been a prince, boy.

Ever since the switch, boy.

I just need the prints, boy.

If you ain’t gonna kiss me, then I’ma need a couple dollars for my Frog Town ballers.

Frog Tame Impala, ’cause it’s only me band from the game.

I don’t have no feelings.

I might be Spider-Man, I don’t read the newspaper.

That no use paper.

If I was Spider-Man, I’d be the mayor.

Then spiders’d be mayors.

If I was the Spider-Mayor,

I’d spy to may-hear singing John Deer.

To hunt or not to hunt?

To hear or not to hear?

I’d have singing John play a couple of singing John songs:

Singing John Deer,

Digging Don Dare,

Singing John Mayer

On guit-tair.

Dear John Deer,

John Mayer, John Dear,

All deer steer cleer of dear John Mare.

Don’t sound clear when the mayor ain’t there.

John Mayor, John Dear,

I am but a humble fear, a hunter raised without a spear Heel Me with your sing-song, healing magic tears.

John Mayer John Deer

John Mayor John Dear

Many naysayers sing a different song, calling on my phone, asking for the player.

Say his name is sing-a-ding something, can’t remember;

That’s way befare he was the mayor.

A cat on a table. This is my fable.

If I was a kitty, I would be in the stable.

But I is a cat with a baseball bat, and I like to eat where the food is at.

I was in the trap.

I was cooking with my brother.

He was calling out all the ingredients and other.

Motherfucker,

I’ma get the cover. I’ma get the heat stick, I’ma get the bluffer.

The way I move the work, yeah, the way I move the water.

The way I move the weight, yeah, the way I move the water.

And if you thank that I stank,

change your nose, boy.

It’s not my clothes, boy.

I was in the trap, yeah,

before you knows, boy.

Elbows and toes, boy,

’cause you don’t nose, boy.

I had the jet landing out in

Me no, yo soy.

Yeah, me no hablo,

yo nombre español.

Yo my name Pablo.

I get the peso.

Make you say so.

It’s like toe may toe.

I’m red as hell, boy.

You cannot tell, boy,

I take my blood pressure medication when I go on vacation.

You know what I’m saying.

I was in line at the DMV.

I was saying,

“Who gonna die for me?”

Don’t bleed everything that you read

Talk about my net, five thousand dollars, yeah, I put it on a bet, put it on the Jets.

I don’t even check.

I don’t even cay-yurr.

That’s why I’m stayer, how I move with the work, move with the water, yeah, just like my father.

He always said

that he wish he had a daughter, but I’m stepping out the house, moving like my brother.

When he called my mother just to tell her that he love her.

I keep walking around this beat-up town.

I stay underground, ’cause my beats too loud.

And my swag is too tight.

If I was a writer,

I would write white.

If I was a white lighter,

I would make it night.

So I shine bright in the skylight.

Move like I ain’t never had legs.

Move like it was your bed for my breakfast.

Move like I was waking up up in Texas, way bigger than my brothers in the Lexus.

They ask about my T-shirt.

I said my feet hurt.

I got no meat up on my sneakers

I need a feature right beside the bleachers

that says when the team work, I’ma get seen first.

I feel like Kurt Cobain, drinking green Gatorade, calling babies different names.

And I got my wedding chain.

Same size, different game.

Different day, but the same way I did it yesterday.

I’m going ándale

I go by Hunter

I am the thing you put the tree under.

I do my tap dance.

That make you clap hands.

I got my rap friends, but got nothing on my back ends.

I stay patient

Say it like a waiter moving with the paper, times ten, times your face.

It feels great.

If I was a Zuckerberg, I would get my buttons turned. I would drop the face first,

I don’t do no book burns.

If I was a critic, I’d be paid for shoes to fit in

If I was a pair of actors, I’d be cheered on black words

I run real fast.

Fast like a dash.

Pop a couple tags just to show you where I’m at.

Make the broke hater mad, how I’m stepping in my swag.

I’ve been a calculator since 2000 and 8er

Right now or write later.

It’s whenever you say that I’m a hater

I made my bands, now I’m there.

John Mayer, your tahmayter.

And my baby is a prayer.

Wake up in the morning and forget to say her.

Where’d you get this big-ass tahmayter?

I just called up the mayor.

I’m living in an L.A.-uh underground lair.

But I know the mayor; There’s no tax there.

And my cat is kinda fat, but he sleep when he nap, that’s okay, cuz he lay where he stay.

He’s a baby boy. He’s a little cat.

She’s a girly girl. She’s a black fur.

I’m a millionurr. I’m successful. I wear watches off my dresser.

I look in the mirror. Yeah, I really do.

I would tell you about it, but I gotta tie my shoe. I’d miss me too.

If I had a million dollars,

I would be a million-dollar baller. If I was million-dollar baller, I would wish I was a little bit taller.

A little bit taller, yeah, that’s what we all want.

But I stays so small, and I’ve been above the law.

I look at my shoes, and I see twos of yous, watching YouTube while I hit snooze on Blue’s Clues.

I look in the sky, and I see two guys in white ties, playing sideswipe.

And it’s alright.

I read my name, and I see the same thing as yesterday.

So I change saying.

I’m in America.

But I wouldn’t marry, cuh, unless I was a merry cuh.

So I got a skateboard.

Already paid for.

Say I had it way before—

Way before I was the may-or.

The mayor.

Was he before or befare?

No matter which way you stare, he’s already there.

Been the mayor since way back where.

That’s what I’m trying to say, man

The mayor in the way,

Taking off my raybands

Taking off my pain meds

Taking off my latex

Feeling like the dayman

Taking off in plein-air

Arigato nay

Stayer on delay

California caveman

I’ll be okay

Everything I say

For another day

Everything I said,

Read as red.

Before I was scared.

Red as a prayer:

Like gloves in a sweater
