  • Yeah, yeah, sick
    (D.A. got that dope)

    They say these bars are like COVID (bars are like COVID)
    You get 'em right off the bat (you get 'em right off the bat)
    Infected with SARS and Corona (infected with SARS and Corona)
    Like you took a bite off of that (damn)
    Then it goes from Martian to human (yeah)
    That's how the virus attacks (that's how the virus attacks)
    They come at me with machine guns (brr)
    Like trying to fight off a gnat

    Still stackin' my chips, hoes, higher than Shaq on his tiptoes
    Atop the Empire State Buildin', this shit is like child's play, children
    I will not annihilate, kill them, I'll fuck around and pile eight million
    Dead little juveniles, wait, chill, then, I'll await my trial date 'til then
    Ain't nothin' you say can ever Trump (Nah), mic, pencil get killed (yeah)
    If you're hypersensitive, I wasn't referencin' the vice president, chill (chill)
    I mean my penmanship at times tends to get ill, violence but with skill
    That's why I hence when I write ends up with the mic and pencil gettin' killed (yeah, hold up)
    And I'm still ride or die for the squad (yeah)
    So you know which side that I'm on
    If a battle line's ever drawn, but if I get involved
    It'll be like K9's in a brawl
    But not similar to Mike Vick at all
    'Cause even if I don't have a dog in the fight
    They ain't never gonna get rid of the fight in the dog
    Got stripes like a tiger, so you might get mauled, a mic in the palms
    Like claws, I can swing right for your jaw and rip it off with one swipe of the paw
    Bitch, you still on my dick or naw? (Naw)
    If I suck, your wife is a straw (Straw)
    I'm sick and I'm not gonna cover my mouth next time that I cough

    They say these bars are like COVID (bars are like COVID)
    You get 'em right off the bat (you get 'em right off the bat)
    Infected with SARS and Corona (infected with SARS and Corona)
    Like you took a bite off of that (damn)
    Then it goes from Martian to human (yeah)
    That's how the virus attacks (that's how the virus attacks)
    They come at me with machine guns (brr)
    Like trying to fight off a gnat (yeah, yeah)

    And d.a. got that dope he sends to me (uh-huh)
    It's like pneumonia symptoms and contracting COVID instantly
    Which is what separates my flow from theirs
    So that no one gets even close to this to pose a risk to me
    So vocalistically (what), that's social distancing (yeah)
    Flow going viral, you best stay strapped
    With that Lysol and get way back
    Get that Pine-Sol and that Ajax
    'Cause this dry cough is just like football umpires callin' a playback
    Bitch, back the fuck up like fifteen yards, these rhymes call for a face mask (face mask)
    'Nother fourteen-day quarantine, they're cordoning off everything
    This shit lookin' like a horror scene, like me metaphorically (damn)
    'Cause them stay-at-home orders seem like they just keep getting more extreme
    Who knows when this nightmare will end? Like Monroe, Norma Jean
    Still got that heroin lyrical drip with that morphine and that Thorazine
    'Cause I'm so fuckin' dope (dope) and you're a fiend
    And that's the one thing that hasn't changed (nope), for some semblance of normalcy
    But I might need that Hydrochloroquine 'cause I got that (yeah)
    The Dark Horse, I'm a knight-mare
    Mom fed me Valium like air
    Thought that's why they called it a high chair (whoa)
    I got a contact like eyewear
    Whoa, wait a minute, bitch, let me lie here
    20/20 hindsight in my side mirror
    Every year, you drop the ball like Times Square
    My hair trigger whenever I get an idea
    Fuck, now my name rings out like a sponge mop
    And my drip was a drop
    In the bucket, so that gun shot
    You just heard just now in that one spot
    Just came from the nine mil' that I just got
    That's big bucks and I got a full money clip and I'm loaded
    I ain't even mean to go the fuck off
    I'm still totally inappropriate with an opiate
    Groping it while I'm holding it like a trophy
    I'm hoping a little codeine'll get me OD'in'
    Whoa, everything is slow, I begin to floating
    I know that I'm getting loaded, the pen exploded
    Hiroshima with the flows, a utopia
    With the dope, I'm an OG, I'm like the G.O.A.T
    Here to get your goat little bit of sodium, it's assault
    When I'm at the podium, at your throat, holy camoly
    I'm in the zone with the shit I'm on
    Get Imodium and a commode because nobody's even close
    You're petroleum to plutonium, you're a phony
    I'm at the crib with your ho, got her at the pole like voting with no clothing
    Stripped down to a toe ring and here we go with the gloating
    I've got my nose in the air like a Boeing
    Then I got into a little bit of an argument with her
    So I took a little lick of a Klonopin at dinner
    Then I hit her with the motherfuckin' ottoman and bit her
    Then I shot her in the liver, delivered her to the bottom of the river
    But I'm probably gon' jump in the water with her
    With a wad of money 'cause I got a lot of it
    And when it come to drippin', I be soppin' like a hundred mile an hour
    Never runnin' out of either one of 'em, I gotta get it 'cause

    They say these bars are like COVID (bars are like COVID)
    You get 'em right off the bat (you get 'em right off the bat)
    Infected with SARS and Corona (infected with SARS and Corona)
    Like you took a bite off of that (damn)
    Then it goes from Martian to human (yeah)
    That's how the virus attacks (that's how the virus attacks)
    They come at me with machine guns (brr)
    Like trying to fight off a gnat (fight off a gnat) Writer/s: Christopher S. Torpey, Danny T. Levin, David L. Doman, Ezemdi Chinecherem Chikwendu, Karl Martin Anders Olofsson, Kevin Joshua Mars, Marshall B. III Mathers
