## Lyrics

**Lyrics**
[Verse 1]

I'm not a Turtle , I'm a turbo

Haters pray to god that I turn slow

Like I'm sipping on purple

But I ain't on your glow

I'm in a whole 'nother circle

Trying to keep it clean like church clothes

Said that respect was something had to work for

But that ain't gonna work though

Get your respect, but lose all my worth, no

You can dead that, get a hearse, go

Don't need 48 you'll find a killer in the first floor

It was me boy, to commercials

Feeling out of place like PETA at a fur store

So I left with a couple dozen fur coats

Said I could never break away from your hold

Watch me, turn though

Said that I blew it like Turquoise

Just mad hear it all in your word choice

Know it hurts but I really don't care though

Let me rub it in, get it all up in that ho

[Hook]

I can see the morning creeping up on us

It's like the world's in my hands now

I'm feeling so rebellious from all of the envy crowding around me

I don't wanna care right now

I don't wanna care right now

No I really don't, really don't, wanna care right now

[Verse 2]

Oh-oh Go-Go-God over everything-thing

You fly but stars over everything-thing

And I'm one of them, yeah one of th-the-them

Oh I'm not o-o-one? Well I'm a hundred th-the-then

I'm a hundred mother loving stars

You're no lights, you're an undercover car

I'm an ambulance, and a fire truck, and some strobe lights, tied up!

Shining all in your eyes, all out of yours and all into mine

Lights and stars is all intertwined

And I'm feeling like Malcolm looking all out the blinds

Any means any means, and you can do anything anything

And the flow tight, skinny jeans skinny jeans

Hit you like Pacquiao, Philippines Philippines

[Hook]

I can see the morning creeping up on us

It's like the world's in my hands now

I'm feeling so rebellious from all of the envy crowding around me

I don't wanna care right now

I don't wanna care right now

No I really don't, really don't, wanna care right now

[Verse 3]

Ya'll know what I'm a let on

I'm Lupe, yes sir, who they

They yester, and I'm today, and tomorrow, hooray

Can I get a hip-hip for the new K-I-N-G, n\*\*\*a I-AM-HE

Got the game in the clutch like Iron Sheik

You ball little boy, But I N-B-A

With a hand for the world, you a boy band with a dance and a twirl

I'm a rockstar with a band so thorough

Big ass tour bus that's jammed full of girls

T-t-tell em what it do, holla from the bottom, yell it from the roof

T-t-tell em what it do, I don't care about your curfew

I'll tell you when I'm through boy

[Hook]

I can see the morning creeping up on us

It's like the world's in my hands now

I'm feeling so rebellious from all of the envy crowding around me

I don't wanna care right now

I don't wanna care right now

No I really don't, really don't, wanna care right now

[Outro]

Tell em what it do, yell it from the bottom, yell it from the roof boy

Tell em what it do, holla from the bottom, yell it from the roof boy

Tell em what it do, holla from the bottom, yell it from the roof boy

Tell em what it do, holla from the bottom, yell it from the roof boy

I don't wanna, I-I don't wanna, I-I-I don't wanna

C-c-c-care right, c-c-care right now

I don't wanna, I-I don't wanna, I-I-I don't wanna

C-c-c-care right, c-c-care right now
