Last Man Standing

I'm always double-dippin', gulpin' while they're sippin'

Got shit to do no time to lose

Gotta sell out just to buy in, shit the bed you're gonna die in

And the destiny is yours to lose

Be the part of the solution, don't be part of the problem

Gotta know you're alone, climb on their shoulders and rob 'em

Time to turn on the heat, it's gettin' cold on the street

And man this shit'll get you down

It's fuck-all-of-y'all season, don't give me a reason

To watch your house burn to the ground

And light my new joint off the flames

I never learned how to play, so I broke the game

Now, I'm flipping the board with the ink and the sword

Walkin' 'round crossin' off names

I'm gonna ride off into the sunset

While it all burns to hell behind me

Somewhere I haven't been yet

Somewhere they can't even see

Well, you know daddy likes his alone time

It's why he doesn't have any friends

Yeah, but want you to see, you'll be looking at me

The last man standing in the end

Folks gettin' sticky, got no time for gettin' picky

'Bout the who, what, the when, or the where

You selling tugs on a pickle with a back door tickle

'Fore you even know how you got there

Well, I'm not gonna say what you want me to say

Plenty people pandering already anyway

Don't even try because I already did it

Bullshit sells, don't you ever forget it

Going full speed is the greatest escape

Slamming on the gas, I can't find the brake

I don't know how much more I can take

Well, I'm gonna keep going 'til I find out

Well, mama didn't raise nobody's dumb dog

No time to win a medal for being the most ...

Well, I know daddy needs his alone time

That's why he doesn't have any friends

Yeah, but I want you to see, you'll be looking at me

The last man standing in the end

(Hey)
