about
When I first started going to Mel's in the summer of 2018, some of the regulars looked at me skeptical. I would get off work dressed business casual so I stuck out like a soar thumb. I swore they thought I was undercover because a lot of shady shit goes down at that bar.
I was taking a piss one evening at a happy hour dinner at Creekside in Santa Barbara and the chorus just came to me. Took a couple takes to dial in the lyrics but eventually it all came together. Dev and I knew that TOPR would rip it. And did he ever. The beat is also heavily influenced by GLP out of the Fillmore district, SF.
lyrics
aye yo check this out
your criminal behavior I can give a shit about
you're concerned with my career what the hell is that about
I'm only here for a couple of beers and then I'm out
what gave you the impression that I was a fed bro
some you degenerates are so judgemental
youre an unarmed male whos trying to sell some D
if anyones going to jail it's going to be me
If I was under cover why the fuck would I play
fuck the police from NWA
inside this dark ass bar I know you're thinking I'm sketch
but my name aint jake and it sure aint fletch
calling me a cop is a bit of a stretch
matter of fact you kinda look like the compository sketch
I dont give a damn about your scam bro
and who I am, you dont need to know
whats the over under
you think I'm undercover?
you're so wrong I'm over weight
no wait I'm under weight
If I was a fed I'd be in shape
my names not jake
the wait is over I'm not over weight
I drink all day hella bent outta shape
can't be a fed had L's since twelve
so if I was a cop I'd hate myself
illegal business controls the bay
ask all the macs, mall shawn and dre
dev nicer than pete the prime minister
I aint your serpico and this aint no cinema
doing bumps off a maxed out credit card
talk a good one but can't play dan lebatard
hit the undercover with an uppercut
my defense on trial I was drunk as fuck
nah dev you got it all wrong
I'm in too deep too far gone
navy wind breaker with the all white kicks
riot pump in the trunk of the crown vic
that sounds sick look at who the fuck I'm down with
say somethin slick and you'll get clowned quick
your paranoia is fucking off my buzz
cuz I'm drinking alone you must think I'm the fuzz
deep in gambling debt I bet you lost a fortune
I aint law enforcement I don't watch my portions
or stay in shape to chase a clown like you
stay the fuck out my face and let me down my brew
it goes one for the money two for good credit
tree for al my rellies who go out a get it
my flow is kinetic and yall so pathetic
for calling me a cop is not copesthetic
its too obsurburd I'm guttenberg on the block pimpin
nah more like goldthwait cause I talk different
any dude in a shirt that says stop snitchin
is the first one to talk if he gets caught slippin
I gotta grip of war stories I don't dare to tell
cuz Im a neerdowell out here looking square as hell
life got it ups and downs thats a carosel
but my nose stay frozen like Im arondale
you think I'm talking through the wire like Kanye
till I drink 119 like andre
I get chicken breaded up for the entre
catch a hot one no hable picante
voice like a crown vic when it downshifts
got a tattoo on your face but aint about shit
bad leutentant pull up and flash on ya
cuz you were never there like a bad father
or a draft dodger and I'm a war machine
sick in the head cabeza on quarantine
that means a felony a day since I was fourteen
so what the fuck I look like trying to infiltrate your scene

This is not like the rest out there. G-Pek with the filthy beats and Luke Sick with that flow that’ll shock your system. That Sweet Prince of Darkness is the cut and that Civil War Beat is so ill, Feudal Mules too. YallDontHearMe
