Sellout Lyrics

Sellout - Tom macdonald

I'm sick of hearing that I changed up

Everybody wanna keep me chained up

Check if this a race, if I'm running and you're walking, I can't wait up, straight up

I feel like I'm the same as when I came up

It's still fuck a record label, still fuck a manager

Still do it all with my girl from my home

Yeah, I bought some Gucci, but I hardly even wear it

I was stoked that after thirty years I finally wasn't broke

And I don't like that stuff, the vibe ain't tough

I should go and soak the clothes in gasoline and light that up

All these stupid little rappers popping Xanax, bad examples for our children

I will never write that, bruh

I'm the same man living like I used to

Do it for my fans, getting famous off of YouTube

Hope they understand I'm only human, didn't know that making music

Will be so fucking confusing, no excuses, that's the truth too

I will always be the person who I used to be

I ain't wearing diamonds, I ain't lying 'bout my jewelry

Every chain is fake, and all that Gucci isn't new to me

I bought it secondhand so I'd look cool on your computer screen

So I'm tired of being analyzed by fans like they're scientists

Who criticize for every single rhyme I spit

If you really think I changed, go ask my sister 'bout her wedding dress

My dad about Nepal or my mom 'bout her appliances

They say I sold out, love me poor

They don't fuck with me no more

Say I changed up, now they're bored

They miss the way I was before

I guess I sold out, they mad

Gold mouth, Louis bag

But everything I was

Made me everything I, everything I am

Look, I get it, all the criticism verified

Spent some years together, now we're going through a scary time

Trust me, if I witnessed my hero been acting different

It seemed like he might be switching, I'd be tripping, I'd be terrified

But picture this, roaches climbing out the cupboards

I was living in the ghetto, borrowed money from my mother

I just had a mental breakdown, my girlfriend in the struggle

Then I blew up overnight and we recovered

We went to Gucci and Louis, moved out the hood to a safe house

Started doing things that we dreamed when we laid down

Now everybody's saying that I changed and they hate loud

I was tryna show my girl like, "Hey, babe, we're okay now"

Still throw a brick through the window of the lobby

Of any record label who tryna stop me

Still be the voice of every single lonely person with a story

They can't tell because they never had nobody

Still fuck the system and pharma and every whack politician

And every triggered millennial too offended to listen

I got caught up in tryna show all the haters I did it

And I forgot that being Thomas was the promise I'd given

I understand why everybody lately saying I changed

But I get bored of everything that stays exactly the same

I promise that I'll burn it down with fuel and flames

Before I lose myself and become all the things that I hate

They say I sold out, love me poor

They don't fuck with me no more

Say I changed up, now they're bored

They miss the way I was before

I guess I sold out, they mad

Gold mouth, Louis bag

But everything I was

Made me everything I, everything I am

I learned from my mistakes, I grew up and I changed

But I swear I'm still the same

I fell along the way, took more than I could take

But I turned out okay

They say I sold out, love me poor

They don't fuck with me no more

Say I changed up, now they're bored

They miss the way I was before

I guess I sold out, they mad

Gold mouth, Louis bag

But everything I was

Made me everything I, everything I am

They say I sold out, love me poor

They don't fuck with me no more

Say I changed up, now they're bored

They miss the way I was before

I guess I sold out, they mad

Gold mouth, Louis bag

But everything I was

Made me everything I, everything I am
