In the world of BET, I'm looked at as 'Too Rock 'N' Roll'

In the world of MTV, my name is 'Too Gangsta'

Man, Strange Music, we got this, baby, this year we got this one, baby

Red hair, red everything, it's Tech N9ne, baby, like it or not

Never been a harder rhymer in my region globally

That's holding me I'm totally hard and bossed up

Why you think that the majority of the rap musical authority

Sword me and barred and crossed up?

'Cause they don't wanna let the crazy kid in then

Spit his hymns speakin' a grim religion

Of rhyme, forbiddin' my isms are hidden

My mind, to written then spittin' the kid in

The N9ne is playin' you, slayin' you, sprayin' you

Permanently delayin' you, swayin' through, it's the gay in you

That's hatin' who somethin' that hella beyond does

I love Kanye, his shit is bombay but I'm rough

And you can see it in my retina that I won't be lettin' ya

Threaten us, better respect Tech, the messenga

Too dope on 'em for this to be history, listen it's a mystery

While they spittin' and dissin' me

This is me, this is me, I'm a king, I'm a clown

I'm a G, I'm a G, I believe what I want

Got you singin' my song but you're seein' me wrong

So what's the matter with me?

This is the belief, the belief

The religion has arisen from the deep, from the deep

Darkest prison, if you listen, you will see, you will see

If collision's your decision, you will reap what you sow

So forget what you know, this is me

This is Tech, brah, for years I've been the next

To collect a plethora of checks, let's get extra

Is what I set to, Travis let's go select the baddest

Rappers, infect the planet, leave 'em in extra

See I'm a vet, the powers don't really wanna let the best

Come and wreck your sets and test your sector

Instead of rawness like Inspecta Deckta

Eldest rather set they specs on Mason Betha

Slept on my records, if you knew my music's Hannibal Lecter

What the hell you callin' for Masta Flex for?

Don't pester me, I won't sweat, you be on a quest to

Investigate your tech ma, respect the

Shockra, tease in hop to these

Hot degrees, me and Mr. O apostrophe

Never listen to these pop pussies 'cause they suck

I love 50 Cent, he gritty when he vent but I'm rough

And you can see it in my demeanor

The Tech Nina will blast arenas, the grass is greena

Made it ma on top of the world, kiss me, miss me

This is me, can't you see?

This is me, this is me, I'm a king, I'm a clown

I'm a G, I'm a G, I believe what I want

Got you singin' my song but you're seein' me wrong

So what's the matter with me?

This is the belief, the belief

The religion has arisen from the deep, from the deep

Darkest prison, if you listen, you will see, you will see

If collision's your decision, you will reap what you sow

So forget what you know, this is me

The industry treat me like a ride on the short bus

That's why I'm tellin' the youngstas when you retort, cuss

And make your fort fuss 'cause you went up to Sam Goody

On F Y E with they money and you support us

Strangas, Shadys, psychopaths and Juggalos

Losers, shootas, college women and ghetto hoes

Rock it from precious dough, drop it, just lets it flow

Cop it, don't knock it, you blockers, stop at the record store

This is Aaron Yates, this Aliyah and Reign

This is for Little Donnie, this is for all Akoya's pain

This is for the sickness of Marty Sue

This is for all the love of Sara, Suzie, Aramay and Izeda Lou

This is for Ike and Ricky, Rufus, Rhonda, Barbra and Marla really

This is for B'zle and I know that rest of my family is with me

This is my friends, this is the end, this is a G

This is life, this is wrong, this is right, this is me

This is me, this is me, I'm a king, I'm a clown

I'm a G, I'm a G, I believe what I want

Got you singin' my song but you're seein' me wrong

So what's the matter with me?

This is the belief, the belief

The religion has arisen from the deep, from the deep

Darkest prison, if you listen, you will see, you will see

If collision's your decision, you will reap what you sow

So forget what you know, this is me

This is me, this is me, I'm a king, I'm a clown

I'm a G, I'm a G, I believe what I want

Got you singin' my song but you're seein' me wrong

So what's the matter with me?

This is the belief, the belief

The religion has arisen from the deep, from the deep

Darkest prison, if you listen, you will see, you will see

If collision's your decision, you will reap what you sow

So forget what you know, this is me
