Gym Class Heroes, Cool and Dre   (This is)   You silly for this one, it's Travie   (Why you doin' this to me?)      I started rappin' back in the class, scribbling tracks   In hopes that one of my jokes, I had the pretty young things laughin'   The chubby little bastard with a knack for little Debbie snacks   But what I lacked in looks I made up for it in passion      No advance and plus we make it happen   In your conscience more obnoxious   Then that laughy Taffy snappin'   Goodbye yesterday's rags, hello, high fashion   Hands before you's a man that built a castle with sand      With no regards for tidal waves and finally established   Till the water comes in gallon drums and wipes away my palace   But now I'm sittin' lovely off in wonderland with Alice   With purple people passin' me at the caterpillar's chalice      Ha, ha, you probably thinking   I'm wrong, right? Like I should quit   Writing these songs, right?   Tell you what do it better, I just might   Take it back to eighty six, you wanna lick, sike      Don't let the TV mislead you   Me and you, dude, we are not equal   Fuck you, this is for my people   Fuck you, this is for my people      Don't try to hide like I can't see you   Your parents must've been trans and so see through   Fuck you, this is for my people   Fuck you, this is for my people      Put up your peace sign, put your index down   Put up your peace sign, put your index down   Put up your peace sign, put your index down   Put up your peace sign, put your index down      Before I utter words and before I start to begin   Let me make sure you clear I'm about securing the wind   I puzzle up my words while I piece another concoction   'Cause I'm stubborn with the thought that failure was never an option      I grinds like a carpenter until my caleceous's bleed   With the passion from my heart to the many mouths that I feed   That's why I look at most of you stupid I know it's odd   Because you can't really do nuttin' to me unless you God      But bein' that none of you ain't him   You can't fuck with me, now watch me erase them   Now trust me, see, I'm so determined   I'm walkin' through the heap of gauntlets while the fire is burnin'      Or how the tires turning on the rim of the V   I laugh and shake it off the shit they be doin' to me   With all the yappin' and talking and so and so   Think that you can ever stop the kid, oh no      So if you get in my way, you know you're done, son   You best believe what I say, you better run, son   Fuck you because I do this for my loved ones   Fuck you because I do this for my loved ones      You better kneel down and pray 'cause where I come from   We goin' hard everyday, that's how the fight's won   Fuck you because I do this for my loved ones   Fuck you because I do this for my loved ones      Put up the peace sign, put the index down   Put up the peace sign, put the index down   Put up the peace sign, put the index down   Put up the peace sign, put the index down      Look, mom, no hands   Yer little boy's a man   (Yeah, damn)   Everything you said is finally settin' in   Trainin' wheels fell off and I kept peddling      Now I'm ridin' wheelies on this industry   Say the word, I'll ghost ride this bitch instantly   Good lookin' pop on the strength that you givin' me   Wasn't for you Gym Class would be history      I'm on my upstate shit   I was Brooklyn broke but now I'm upstate rich   Gettin' brains from two dames with French accents   Now I mess with local chicks, I get 'em upstate shit      You prob'ly thinking I'm wrong, right?   Like I should quit writin' these songs, right?   Tell you what, do it better I just might   Take it back to eighty six, you want a lick, sike      Now it's a lot of y'all that can't stand me   'Cause my resemblance to Prince is uncanny   But fuck you, this is for my family   Fuck you, this is for my family      Upstate New York to Miami   Up late recording in my jammies   I do it for my family   Fuck you, this is for my family      Put up your peace sign, put your index down   Put up your peace sign, put your index down   Put up your peace sign, put your index down   Put up your peace sign, put your index down      Put up your peace sign, put your index down   Put up your peace sign, put your index down   Put up your peace sign, put your index down   Put up your peace sign, put your index down
