Mick Jenkins - Animated Ambition lyrics

[Intro] Can you turn the beat up a little bit more in my headphones? Yeah... Runnit' [Chorus] When I was young Thought I'd grow up, be a cartoon (cartoon) Used to be Rugrat Now I'm black Tommy Pickles Trapped up in the costume (costume) Trying to get out of that part of my reach But I need to change the channel Non eyes I have seen my battle These scenes ain't made for children Lord help me, I've been feelin' grown [Verse 1 : Mick Jenkins] All I ever wanted was a young Patti Mayonnaise Thinking we can make some cold cuts Like planters we go nuts and plant seeds And grow us and take naps No, you can't comb us Never met Wilder Young T.J. Detweiler I mean what I'm trying to say is I'm an advocate for recess To prevent a rapid regress Trying make it last forever Young Keith Sweat going beast mode n***as feel so close still far away And I'm only one yard away So I can't be in it for the pennies Other n***as learn the harder way I see nothing godly 'bout Charlamagne It's either hot tea or it's water out the flutes like a Chardonnay So pardon me for coming at a jagged edge With a grill like Cardi B But I will hardly be Just a Gerald to some football head n***a, hardly me No Tom and Jerry cons f** a hit, I'm not Barry Bonds That's on my soul til' they bury me [Chorus] When I was young Thought I'd grow up, be a cartoon (cartoon) Used to be Rugrat Now I'm black Tommy Pickles Trapped up in the costume (costume) Trying to get out of that part of my reach But I need to change the channel Now I have seen my battle These scenes ain't made for children Lord help me, I've been feelin' grown [Verse 2: Noname] And you can really think that the money don't matter when the d** come in All my raps are for sale and my cigarette bleeding like the hallelujah catalogs of lungs I'm in I've been drifting for a minute With my body in the water of slaughter Like they really might give it to the Donald playing the Trump card I know White America dreams in all black Dark conundrum for genocide happy as Kodak Smile for the picture like you safe and they love you Smile for the picture like they love you, lonely Nina Simone, envision her like Zoey History would die in the empty of a shadow A battle in the war zone on the forefront of the news Blues, blackberry tragic and tragic I know I'm getting money when the d** come in And I know my mama safe for a minute, a minute [Chorus] When I was young Thought I'd grow up, be a cartoon (cartoon) Used to be Rugrat Now I'm black Tommy Pickles Trapped up in the costume (costume) [Bridge: Jesse Boykins III] The money never make no man like me, man like me Lately the money is all I see The money never make no man like me, man like me Lately the money is all I see
