Ayo This a song about My, my stepdad Let's see if this ever happened to you I, I hate My, my stepdad One thing that sticks in my craw When I was six and I saw my stepfather hittin' my mom Socked her right in her eyeball I'm startin' to think I'm psychotic With all the pictures that I draw of Shit that I've already witnessed, this probably twisted my thoughts All I can hear is drama with mom and him I can always hear 'em arguin' down the hallways The walls are thin so the noise is startin' to feel like the norm My dog pissed on the carpet, he stomped it so hard Doctors had to put it down He killed my chihuahua, this motherfucker I, I, hate My, my stepdad (stepdad) So tonight I'm sayin' "Bye-bye stepdad" (stepdad) Outside, I look like I'm calm Inside, I'm a tickin' time bomb 'Cause of this motherfucker, who sticks his dick in my mom (my mom) Last night, he said I left the kitchen light on But he walked in there this morning and purposely flipped it, I saw him Hickory switch to my bottom, I counted sixty-nine times He swatted me with it, I'd cry He just started hittin' me harder God, I just wish I could jaw him If I could get my weight up But I'm just a second grader This prick is bigger than I am But I've been readin' at school about this shit called liquid cyanide I'm fantasizin' at night when he's sleepin' at just the right time Sneak up with a lethal injection and put him down like they did to my dog I'm talkin' euthanasia (euthanasia), like kids in Taiwan This fuckin' shit's like Saigon (Saigon) Neighbors called police on him So many battery charges, this dude's like lithium ion Then mom and him let bygones (bygones), just be bygones So on eggshells, I walk and just try not to piss this guy off But this why I I, I, hate My, my stepdad (stepdad) So tonight I'm sayin' "Bye-bye stepdad" (stepdad) So this year, I'm goin' to the fifth and I'm tall I'm five foot six on my block, I'm the toughest kid but I got Way bigger fish to fry, which is why I'm tryna get this bitch to fly off The handle and wait for the fist to fly to put this guy in a pine box He's always lookin' for chaos but tonight I've cooked up a plan So this Christmas, I got some color books and some crayons I'm layin' on the floor, in the living room with some friends colorin' He walks by, kicks my arm and goes "Whoops" and just laughs I yelled for mom (mom) and as she's rushin' to my defense I stood up and said, "Fuck you punk" and I took off and ran To my bedroom, as I fled Knowin' shit would hit the fan Slammed the door and hid behind it with an aluminum bat He kicked it in I swung it hard as I could at his head His noodle went splat, he fell right at the foot of my bed I'm a little bit scared but my anger's overtooken the fear I threw down the bat and just started whoopin' his ass Beat him with my bare hands, the big bad wolf ain't so bad "Ding-dong," the pussy is dead, the bully finally gets his Stomped him until he pissed enough to fill a two liter with Then buried him next to my dog And if I go to juvie for this, I'ma tell 'em I, I, hate My, my stepdad (stepdad) So tonight I'm sayin' "Bye-bye stepdad" (stepdad) 'Cause I, I, hate My, my stepdad (stepdad) So tonight I'm sayin' "Bye-bye stepdad" (stepdad)
