Lyric

I'm a double-sided felony

And a single entity, stereotypes don't try to label me

I've got yellow skin and a redneck

A set of black hair and I confess

That it's killin' me when I don't know my identity

I've got blood of my heritage

Heirlooms passed down from my lineage

I've lived life like a pilgrimage

Let me rewind, travel through time

'95, I was born outside the borderlines of Tokyo

'99, Hopped on a plane and the story goes

To the Lone Star State where the cowboys are

Sun pierced my skin like a cactus

17 Summers ago, I recall the ice cream trucks

On the cul-de-sac playin' JIBBs through the speakers

Playin' PlayStation, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater

Ridin' freestyle and a couple of lip tricks

Full 360, back doing lip tricks with the rhymes I wrote

Don't mean to be romantic like Romeo

Times used to be simple back then

Hidin' behind my ignorance, my biggest defense

But now I'm left straddlin' a fence

Hopin' that by tomorrow it'll make more sense

Lookin' out from the center of this circle (Red, White)

Red for my blood, white for my innocence

Lookin' in but I end up in circles

Left wanderin' in my mind, left right to the start

Lookin' out from the center of the circle (Red, White)

Red for my blood, white for my innocence

Lookin' in but I end up in circles

Left wanderin' in my mind, left right to the start

Back in this city, this place the epitome

Of fast-paced lives, never thought to think twice

Down the fast lane, passin' all the neon lights

Cruisin' by the flashing signs, stayin' up all night

Got a rooftop party, metaphor for the thinkin'

That I'm doin' from the top of my dome

3 a.m. catch me drinkin' at home, being sober ain't an option

When the land that was home transformed to a tourist destination

NoooooooooW I'm facin' the face of a phased and faded out Japanese kid

Complexion it's a complex when mirrors

Only reflect and detract from my inner qualities

These feelin's that I'm feelin' are as raw as sashimi

Dual identity duality is killin' me, a parallel universe version of me

As awkward as a dubbed anime character

Split in the center with a samurai sword

Arms crossed in a morgue don't have to pay a mortgage cause I lost my home

Times used to be simple back then

Hidin' behind my ignorance, my biggest defense

But now I'm left straddlin' a fence

Hopin' that by tomorrow it'll make more sense

Make a little sense, blow incense, get bent, fuck what the govern ever meant

You know it's all mind control, do what you're told, die when you're old

And work, work, work, work for the gold

Got us goin' crazy for the likes and the maybes

Maneuver through life like it's heiki

All over the world it's kakuheiki

Why they tryna put a weapon in my hand, Goddamn

Bam

Shhh

'86 Baby born on the map, mouth learned how to flap

Lear-Learned how to rap, experienced life indeed then we plant the seeds

Smoke weed till your eyes bleed

Yes, gotta get through the stress test Hai, Soudesu

Forever chasin' loot, swear I'm about to shoot

But I always be shootin' for the stars

Everybody wanna bite, Alligator gar

Don't be left behind, see you later

Flyin' like a birdie, but we stayin' reachin' par

Li-Life's a loop and we ain't going far

What's your vices, starin' at devices

Are we really livin' righteous?

What's your vices, starin' at devices

GuRu GuRu GuRu, are we livin' righteous?

Lookin' out from the center of this circle (Red, White)

Red for my blood, white for my innocence

Lookin' in but I end up in circles

Left wanderin' in my mind, left right to the start

Lookin' out from the center of the circle (Red, White)

Red for my blood, white for my innocence

Lookin' in but I end up in circles

Left wanderin' in my mind, left right to the start

I feel like an outcast in my own house and I'm locked out

I feel like that my energy and my sanity is fadin' now

I feel like an outcast in my own house and I'm locked out

I feel like that my energy and my sanity is fadin' now
