## Lyrics

My brain's so confused 'bout all the shit you say

And I don't understand why you've been badmouthing me

If you got something to say, gotta step up the other way

If you wanna roll with me, go with me, then you gotta follow my lead

I've been doing my thing, doing my thing, living my life

You've been using my name, threw me under the bus, but it ain't no surprise

So you're making me weak, making me weak with those eyes

But I'm better, I deserve better, shoulda known better

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool

Well, you ain't cooler than me, no

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool

Well, you ain't cooler than me, no

Yeah, kinda sad, oh, how I let you in my life

You was tryna act cute so I wouldn't see you with your noise

You really think I will let you in my gang

But baby, here's a new flash for ya, backstabbers ain't my thing

I've been doing my thing, doing my thing, living my life

You've been using my name, threw me under the bus, but it ain't no surprise

So you're making me weak, making me weak with those eyes

But I'm better, I deserve better, shoulda known better

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool

Well, you ain't cooler than me, no

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool

Well, you ain't cooler than me, no

Hey

I ain’t got no back, I just rock that way

I run it, I rule it, I made it, got through it

Baby rock rock rock, how he got that way?

Might be rumors made by losers

But I’m hottest and the coolest

Get stronger by the hater

I’m like, see ya later

I'mma jump, jump and lock in my sundeck

Put my shades on, I was born that way

And there ain’t nothing wrong with it

I'mma make ya fall in love wit’ it

So you do the talk, be what you’re not

Play how ya done, and don't say that I'm wrong

Because

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool

Well, you ain't cooler than me, no

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool

Well, you ain't cooler than me, no

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool

Well, you ain't cooler than me, no

*[Nash Yamin:]*

My brain's so confused 'bout all the shit you say

If you wanna roll with me, go with me, then you gotta follow my lead

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool

Well, you ain't cooler than me, no

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool

Well, you ain't cooler than me, no

*[Humble The Poet:]*

If you ever knock me down, I'm back up

Tell a hater he could back up

My myself and I

You the type to call for backup

I did a show on the road

Shit that you rap, man, I'm living it

What's a limit to the limitless?

Wavin' my watch like a hypnotist

Hypocrite when I spit simple shit

Your shit repetitive, sedative

Put it to bed like I get it in

Then again new to the game like a Pelican (ship)

*[Nash Yamin:]*

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool

Well, you ain't cooler than me, no

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool

Well, you ain't cooler than me, no

Hey

I ain’t got no back, I just rock that way

I run it, I rule it, I made it, got through it

Baby rock rock rock, how he got that way?

Might be rumors made by losers

But I’m hottest and the coolest

Get stronger by the hater

I'mma jump, jump and lock in my sundeck

Put my shades on, I was born that way

And there ain’t nothing wrong with it

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool

Well, you ain't cooler than me, no

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool

Well, you ain't cooler than me, no

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool (you're not)

You think you're real cool

Well, you ain't cooler than me, no
