Fuck An Emcee Name Lyrics - Singles - George Watsky

Intro 

First of all, there's already a popular reggae artist named Elephant Man 

Second, as my mother always said, there's nothing cooler than being yourself. 

And third, and most importantly 

(clears throat) 

Chorus (2X) 

F-F-F-F-Fuck an MC Name 

I don't need a god damn MC Name 

I got nothing to hide, you got something to say 

(George Watsky doesn't need a fucking MC Name) 

Verse 1 

If I go spit a poem 

If I go kick a flow 

Doesn't really matter man cause the jam is a Watsky 

When I get a mic and I go rip a rhythm ain't a name in the whole damn gonna stop me 

Probably gonna rip it too 

Cause the city wants a hippy with a bit to prove 

I got shit to do 

I got the sickest crew 

And so what the fuck is it to you, dude 

If I got no stage name 

I got stage game out the ass 

And a masterplan 

It's an avalanche 

When I spit a little bit of slam 

And I hit you with the battleram 

Got a cattle brand "GW bar none" so what do you park man? 

Got money and cars? I study the stars 

and I couldn't care less who you rep in your set show respect 

I'll be rapping I bet 

Lean to the left flow right Oh my god! 

A rose by any name got thorns as sharp 

Yo, stage names are for porno stars 

And Watskeet skeet skeet skeet is far 

From what I'm trying to do ,Who I'm trying to be 

Mother f f f fuck this industry 

If I gotta be MC U to do MC Me 

(George Watsky MP3) 

F-F-F-F-Fuck the limit I got a keep it coming if I wanna make it to the top 

Cause I be giving you what I been doing during the minutes that other rappers have been napping on the clock 

Cause if I walk the walk and I talk the talk and I'm popping off cause my flow is hot 

Then I'm pretty motherfucking positive I never gonna try to be somebody I'm not 

Chorus 

Verse 2 

What's in a name man, flow comes first 

I'm never gonna curse - that I got it worst when I roam the earth 

It's a ridiculous coincidence that shows my worth 

You know my parents went and chose my emcee name at birth 

(what?) I don't need a mask 

to cover my ass 

So why would you ask? 

Go put me on blast 

I'll take you to task 

This name is my last 

(gasp) so put it on my tombstone when I pass 

(Here lies a fine emcee, the kind who grasps the fact 

that these aren't circus acts to make you clap, it's rap to make you think and act) 

I think you understand by now the thought involved 

That if I wanted to be called another name I would have scrawled it on the bathroom wall 

I'm not apologizing for a policy that makes a college kid go call himself Thugdog and not expect assault 

I'm marching on and calling all dissenters who 

Would like to be included in this emcee designation coup 

I'm set to get a crew 

we're gonna get a clue and then we'll put it up for you to view 

coo coo ca choo 

i am the "insert you" 

come on everybody do it too 

Chorus 

Bridge 

I invoke the spirits of the great nameless emcees who came before me: 

tupac shakur 

ali shaheed muhammad 

sean price 

saul williams 

dahlak brathwaite 

michael franti 

gabriel teodros 

joell ortiz 

mike jones 

mike shinoda from Linkin Park 

I invoke the spirits of the great nameless professional athletes turned rappers who came before me: 

Deion Sanders 

roy jones, jr. 

shaquille o'neal 

I invoke the spirits of the great nameless white emcees who came before me: 

fred durst 

aaron carter 

kevin federline 

ommm
