WOO!
Yeah, yeah, YEAAAH!!!
I'm spittin' bars

In my new car
I'm spittin' bars
Hardy hardy har!
Hardy hardy har, IKR
There's a chance this song might break your arm
I'm drinkin' Aquafina from a jar
Watch out, your front door is a bit ajar
This song sounds just like James Bay, "Chasing Stars"
This song sounds just like James Bay, "Chasing Stars"
Do not be lazy, come on dude, work hard
I got my music video on WorldStar
I'm driving a Jaguar, writing a memoir
I kick the soccer ball right off the crossbar
I am a worldwide screaming superstar
I always spit bars!
Bars
Bars
Bars
Bars (Oh-woah)
My fists are the size of cars
When I throw you, I send you to Mars
Up there, you can see the stars
But you will still have better Wi-Fi than me
'Cause I don't have any bars
I don't have any barsI don't have any bars
I always spit bars!
Bars

Bars (Oh-woah)
Yeah!
The song "Bars" by K.A.A.N. is a humorous take on modern rap music, with the artist boasting about his wealth, fame, and lyrical ability. The song begins with an introduction by MC Ethan, who is producing the beat for the song. K.A.A.N. then begins his rap, repeating the phrase "I'm spittin' bars" and declaring that he has a car and is going far. He also makes a joke about the beat being "bizarre" and says "hardy hardy har" several times, seemingly poking fun at the cliches of rap music.
As the song progresses, K.A.A.N. continues to boast about his success, claiming that his music video is on WorldStar and he is driving a Jaguar. He also plays with the homophonic possibilities of the word "bars," referring both to his lyrical skills and to cell phone reception. In the final verse, he jokes about his physical strength, claiming that his fists are the size of cars and that he can throw people all the way to Mars.
Overall, "Bars" is a lighthearted and tongue-in-cheek take on the themes of modern rap music, with K.A.A.N. poking fun at his own success and the genre as a whole. The song's repetitive and catchy beat makes it a fun addition to any playlist.

I have been learning this song, and you did a great job! I had a few issues with the lyrics, I read in the description you want lyric corrections in comments, so here are my thoughts:
1) At 0:43 you wrote "It's insane the fuckin' monotony", but I believe it is "It's insane and fuckin' monotonous".
2) 1:14 Not sure about this one; you could be right. But at 1:14 I'm not completely convinced he is saying "blew my mental". I have heard the phrase before, and it's quite possible that is what he is saying but it just doesn't sound quite right. "Blew my mental" "No more mental" "Lose momentum" "Low momentum" "Lose memento" ...I almost hear an L sound at the begining and the last word sounds a lot like memento, mental, and momentum to me. Just ideas, no concrete ideas from me.
3) At 1:25 You say he says "meddling with adrenaline pedaling on the past". I think he says "meddling with adrenaline pedaling try'na" pass (trying to pass).
4) At 2:00 you wrote "anyone that gon' listen". I think it is "anyone that'll listen". Just a small nit pick
5) At 2:09 you wrote "the fact I'm a fucking alcoholic who was never involved or took an interest in their children never helped to create" I believe he says "the fact I'm a fucking alcoholic who was never involved or took an interest in the children that I helped to create" He's speaking from his dad's point of view.
6) At 2:33 you wrote "now I think I'm defective". I believe he says "now I think I'm defecting"
7) At 2:41 I'm not sure if he says 'To" or "Then", but you wrote "To document my pride". I prefer saying "Then document my pride". Listen to it again, it sounds like it could be either, so I'm not quite sure.
8) At 2:54 you said "but invested that in a craving I broke it down to explain it you'll see by this simple math". I think it says "but invested that in a craft if I broke it down to explain it you'll see that it's simple math".
9) At 3:06 you said "tenant attendance" This sound about right, but I believe there are a few other options it sounds like. "tentative tendence" (uncertain tendencies) and "ten'tive attendance" (shortening tentative) It means his attendance is spotty. I don't know what tenant attendance would mean, unless I am missing something.
10) At 3:29 you said "Create a flawless skull". I believe it said "Create a flawless flow" He goes on to rap with an F alliteration, so this only makes sense and goes with the rhyme scheme.
11) At 3:39 you said "Yaaaa! mastered the flow". I believe he says "I mastered the flow". He just stretches out the word I.
12) At 3:40 I am not convince he says "I bettered the kid as you knee" But to be honest I don't know what he says and that sounds about right...maybe "as you need" I don't know.
13) At 3:43 you said "that nigga was never let clean". I believe he says "that nigga is definitely clean". He could be referring to his rhymes being clean, or him not having anything illegal on him.
14) At 3:47 you said "I guess I done struggled with everything". I'm not sure if it says that or if it says "I guess that I struggle with everything".
15) At 3:53 you said "I live in the stands". He says "I live in the stanzas" He lives in his poetry.
What do you think? Does anyone agree/disagree?
