George Monastiriakos So Put Me Down
[Verse 1]
6 am, out of service
On a plane on the way to Zurich
My teachers said I'd never make it
Motherfucker, I graduated
Failed a grade, been rejected
Been neglected and disrespected
Made mistakes, turned the page
Ivy League, and I went on exchange
Smiling, look at the look on my face
How many people did I put in their place
How many mouths did I shut
Good luck just keeping up
I'm like a glitch in the software, no, bitch, this is not fair
I'm like a glitch in the software, no, bitch, this is not fair
I do not care, I'm a soldier still
Better know the skill, this is overkill
I don't give a f..ck, know the GOAT is here
I'll grow the moustache and the pony tail
The quarterback's not the wide-receiver
I'm the leader, I'm the leader
I'm not Lumidee, you know I'll leave ya
Pack my bags and move to Geneva
'cause I'm building my health away from the nastiness
All that I know is money and happiness
I'm a businessman, got a different plan
Go and follow on Instagram
The vision's grand, crystal clear
Listen dear, I won't disappear
There's no distant fears, I just persevere
I'll turn 100 grand to 100 mil
I'll never quit, I said it before
I'll rap 'til my dad isn't dead any more
Out in Lisbon, I thought about it
I'd be iconic, if I wanted
For 8 months, sat and waited
Strategizing, pontificating
But I gotta change the way I portray it
‘cause the underdog is now the favourite
So Put Me Down
[Chorus]
So Put Me Down
So Put Me Down
So Put Me Down
[Verse 2]
Behind my back, talking greezy
But shake my hand when they see me
Take it easy and watch your tv
A bunch of cowards like Mussolini
Bullshit talks, it's always wrong
Integrity walks and it runs marathons
I'll change the world with the words I sing
When I open up like Deng Xiaoping
My voice is godly like Pavarotti
My heart is out there, you cannot stop me
I'm Pierre Trudeau; just watch me
20 years I'll be running the country
Xenophobes get too aggressive
Sense the tension, it's never ending
Brexit, Brexit, Trump gets elected
Look at the mess that we're left with
A white man, but I'm out of place
Dark features, and a brown face
Remember, you racists, you cannot f..ck with me
Go outside, and jump off the balcony
I look like a monkey but roll like an elephant
Over Republicans trying to be relevant
I'm a Canadian, if I was president
Blow up the wall, and marry a Mexican
Honestly, this is democracy
Mr. President is tweeting his policy
Climate denial, f..ckin' mockery
Fake news, f..ckin' mockery
Deflect the questions, repeat a sentence
It's not impressive, it's just Apprentice
I'm the scribe at the edge of the road
Standing in Rome, as it implodes
I'll never quit, I said it before
Rap 'til my dad isn't dead any more
Out in Lisbon, I thought about it
I'd be iconic, if I wanted
For 8 months, I sat and waited
Strategizing, pontificating
Gotta change the way I portray it
‘cause the underdog is now the favourite
So Put Me Down
[Chorus]
So Put Me Down
So Put Me Down
So Put Me Down
