Ungrateful
Deji Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Let me show you how itβ²s done
Listen here now
I'm tired of this shit
You fabricate lies to seem sick
But youβ²re just a little prick
Your mother should have swallowed you
Despicable Me? Nah, despicable you
Rackin' up lines with Wroetoshaw too
The charity match was just a gimmick
How the fuck have you not ended up in a clinic?
Using that YouTube money for drugs?
How the fuck do you keep all your subs?
Using that YouTube money for fame?
How the fuck do you stay so lame?
I looked online for you
Turns out you're the blandest motherfucker too
No one records the shit that you do
Watching your vids is like Deja Vu
(Woo!)
Youβ²re a snake
Youβ²re tryna call me out on views
But I see right through you
You're irrelevant when itβ²s just you
Didn't think you would get a lyricist (yeah)
I know you got a ghostwriter bitch (yeah)
Snakes on a plane, snakes on the roof
Snakes chattinβ² shit in the Sidemen booth
None of these bitches are talkin' the truth
Yeah my brother gave me the boost
But he gave everything to you
Brand, clothing, house too
And you diss the Olatunji crew?
We bred and fed you
But I know something about you
You went to Berkhamsted, thatβ²s a private school
Couldn't follow up on that Uni degree
He had to beg JJ for help, didn't he?
Youβ²re JJβ²s bitch
Anyway I'm done, this werenβ²t for fun
You know that girl Stella? I went Interstellar
I don't give a fuck man, I shit in a urinal
I donβ²t give a shit man, I fuck in the cubicle
In other words I'm saying I donβ²t care
And Harry, you're next
Next time don't try getting drugs at a charity match
You fucking pleb
Iβ²m out of this piece
