We Ain't Them - Childish Gambino

Picking out my fro with my fist comb

I got a tab at the Stone baby this long

My little brother was having a little trouble

I hope that he doesn't care that it's in this song

Korean town lunchin' talking 'bout how to run things

He said Atlanta wanted something

Waka Jeezy and Future got the streets locked down

Copycats making sure Tip keep that crown

You f**king 'round with the truth went to see The Roots

Quest brought me back on stage in a suit

I wear it hard cause niggas say that I'm soft

Even Black Thought thought I made it a little hard I gotta be honest

Feeling like the other stuff is kinda behind us

Making jokes here and there done got us some dollars

I'm tryna show the whole world what it is and it ain't a game

He said homie stay the course ain't sh*t changed

Weird night and everybody was tipsy

Hanging out with Questlove reminiscing 'bout Whitney

He like “Man we can't even make it to 50 ”

That reminds me – I sent a long text message to my mom and pop

I got the same speech when I left 30 Rock

My mom like “Why you wanna leave a good job ”

My dad said “Do your thing boy don't stop”

Shout out to my ni**a Lud shout out to my ni**a Sway

For hanging out at the crib and telling me what you think

Speak from your heart and never compromise what you feel is real

And never let these white people tell you how to feel

Never let anybody tell you how to feel

I want what they had back in the fourth grade

Family vacates you know I did it all

Just to see my little sis by a waterfall

My great granddad bought his own freedom

Walk barefoot to Virginia to start his own peanut farm

So don't be alarmed – man I'm royalty

Jam of the week V103

No cosign no bovine

More swag pull back on the punchlines

Starving every track means lunch time

I'm a star how could I not shine

F**k boys chase hyper rap chicks

And niggas who stopped texting after 1 6

DG Lover ain't nothing to f**k wit'

D Money ain't nothing to f**k wit'

And what's a leader if he isn't reluctant

Too bad for y'all I'm blasting off

I'm not Asher Roth I don't sleep on my bread

Dick riders stay close I might flash a ball

Sometimes all this sh*t make a ni**a feel guilty

I used to sleep with them roaches

Back of my mind though I hope the show gets cancelled

Maybe then I can focus

Hawaii touch down go ahead baby put your shades on

East Side East Side to the gravestone

Brown liquor but my girl in Bed-Stuy

Ni**a you got Drive like a sale at Best Buy

Hold up hold up we can do better

Put my voice on the track man that sh*t is much wetter

At the studio at 8 AM

Hit the booth then eat ni**a we ain't them ni**a we ain't them

Drop a line at your Facebook status

Said that sh*t about a week ago you still mad at us

If there's something on your chest ni**a let it out

Cause I'm the best – da da da
