To all you fake ass thugs out there talkin 'bout
You got this and you got that
And you gon' murder this one and murder that one
Talkin' all that bullshit
Imma put it like this yo
[Chorus]
This is for the nerds
This is for the brainiacs
This what we deserve
Go ahead and play it back
You ain't gonna touch me
You not gon' do nothing
You are not above me
I bet you wish you was me
I know it, I know
This is for the nerds
This is for the brainiacs
This what we deserve
Go ahead and play it back
You ain't gonna touch me
You not gon' do nothing
You are not above me
I bet you wish you was me
I know it, I know
[Verse 1]
Fuck them & their hating crussade
Never had the new J's
But you be thinking new ways
Might not be on that new wave
But trust me homie, you straight
What you got on your mind is truth and they all wearing toupees
Keep doing ya thing
I bet one day they tell you "touche"
You don't need that Future, go head listen to your Lupe
Let them say that you gay or you corny or your shoes lame
They talk 'bout boots on your legs
But they whole swagga bootleg
And you gon' find ya style in a lane that you proud of
You gon' make a smile from this pain, move a mountain
A lot of dudes talk a lot of game, but I doubt 'em
I know real tough guys and trust me they ain't with the shoutin' so
Speak through your actions
Don't you ever be too passive
Your potential be too massive
Fight that ignorance with passion
But I know this shit is taxin'
When you've had a long day
Go and let this song play
Let me hear you all say
[Chorus]
This is for the nerds
This is for the brainiacs
This what we deserve
Go ahead and play it back
You ain't gonna touch me
You not gon' do nothing
You are not above me
I bet you wish you was me
I know it, I know
This is for the nerds
This is for the brainiacs
This what we deserve
Go ahead and play it back
You ain't gonna touch me
You not gon' do nothing
You are not above me
I bet you wish you was me
I know it, I know
[Verse 2]
I know it, man I know it
The dopest rapper out, but all white folks they call me poet
Don't you put me in that box
You know the one that make you comfortable
I know what my cause be, but don't call me no Huxtable
The OGs they done taught me that ain't no one untouchable
You don't need no appraisals
Shit as long as you fuck with you
And that's why I won't pretend for a buck or two
When I heard that shit that they was bangin' and I wasn't moved
What it do? what it do? tell me how it's lookin' now
Member when you wasn't you, you was feelin' crooked now
You be yellin' fuck it too, no list up in the bucket
You too busy now becoming you
You livin' now you livin' now, yeah yeah
Got a vision now beyond when you would live in doubt
Decisions now decisions now
We don't do the divisions now
And they'll always hate, shit but you no longer care
So throw me all of your despair
Throw ya hands up in the air
[Chorus]
This is for the nerds
This is for the brainiacs
This what we deserve
Go ahead and play it back
You ain't gonna touch me
You not gon' do nothing
You are not above me
I bet you wish you was me
I know it, I know
This is for the nerds
This is for the brainiacs
This what we deserve
Go ahead and play it back
You ain't gonna touch me
You not gon' do nothing
You are not above me
I bet you wish you was me
I know it, I know
