Album: The Checkup
Song: Superhuman

Lyrics:

I always wanted to be a superhero man
Have my own super power and shit
Well, now I do

I grew up an only child, young Webby in the playpen
Just me and my giant imagination
Playin' with my ninja turtles and my spacemen
And readin' books instead of going out to make friends

Other kids liked girls and they played sports
I was in my own world on a strange course
Everywhere, I had a pen in my hand
It's like being a rapper was already the plan

But nah, I was writin' short stories and drawin' pictures
My creative energy was off the Richter
Lookin' up to superheroes in my comics
The love and respect that they got's what I wanted

But how could I do it, my skills seem useless
Up until I got introduced to rap music
I fell in love that day, and I knew
That just maybe I could have a superpower too

I'm going crazy
That's what they said but I kept it movin'
Cause this dream's all I got
Even if they all said I could never do it

But I never slowed down
I just kept my head straight
'Til I made a movement
And now, I'm feelin' superhuman

Years went by and I kept on practicin'
Even when it seemed the shit was never happenin'
Freestyle cyphers on a blunt ride after them
High school parties, writin' songs, rap battlin'

Had me thinkin' that my super powers were buildin'
Startin' feelin' I could really change the world with what I'd written
Still continued to write, made a conscious decision
To keep it real on the mic and give em my life

Through the good bad and ugly, my fans still rock with me
Fuck a gimmick, my gimmick is brutal honesty
And they respect that, so I show respect back
Since that first time at school that I took off my pen cap

Wrote my first bars, scribbled lyrics at my desk
In a five subject notebook and I filled every section
Page after page as my skills kept channelin'
Young Anakin, now the force can't handle him

I'm going crazy
That's what they said but I kept it movin'
Cause this dream's all I got
Even if they all said I could never do it

But I never slowed down
I just kept my head straight
'Til I made a movement
And now, I'm feelin' superhuman

My superpowers have evolved, better look out
Shit, I'm Gambit with a full house
Magneto in a metal room
Imhotep when he left the tomb

Superman in the air now
I'm Scott Summers in a stare down
No one's steppin' to the shit I'm doing
I'm here and I'm superhuman

I-I-I got an S on my chest
I-I got an S on my chest
I-I-I-I got an S on my chest
I-I-I-I got an S on my chest
