Dumb It Down

[Intro]
Say it slow
Say it soft
Like I’m stupid
Spit it out
[Verse 1]
Talk stupid to my face
Make it real small words
Point at every little flaw
Like you rehearsed every curse
Spell it out like A B C
Treat me like I’m five
You the genius in the room
I’m just lucky I survived
You got big man theories
On that tiny little tongue
Go on break my whole life down
Like a checklist you just sung (yeah)
[Chorus]
(dumb it down)
Rap it like you think I’m brain-dead
Say it plain, say it slow, what you just said
If I’m trash, if I’m fake, put me in my place
Use the smallest little letters when you cut my face
(dumb it down)
All that venom in the simplest way
Tiny words for the hate that you spray
If I’m nothing, if I’m late, scream it in my face
Bitch, dumb it downnn
Bitch, dumb it downnn (hey!)
[Verse 2]
Tell me all the things you want
Like a picture book rant
Point and shout, “this you, that you”
‘Cause you think I can’t
Break my heart with a nursery rhyme
Sing along to my fall in time
Hold my hand while you drag me through
Every “should’ve,” every “never,” every “that’s on you”
You want yes or no
You want black or white
You want easy targets
You don’t want a fight
So you cut me to pieces
In the easiest speech
But you choke when the truth
Gets just outta reach (woah)
[Chorus]
(dumb it down)
Rap it like you think I’m brain-dead
Say it plain, say it slow, what you just said
If I’m trash, if I’m fake, put me in my place
Use the smallest little letters when you cut my face
(dumb it down)
All that venom in the simplest way
Tiny words for the hate that you spray
If I’m nothing, if I’m late, scream it in my face
Bitch, dumb it downnn
Bitch, dumb it downnn
[Bridge]
You want me broken?
Say it like a slogan (hey!)
Turn my whole life
To a cheap little joke and
Laugh for the crowd
While you’re dumbing it down
But I learn every syllable
Then I burn this house to the ground
[Chorus]
(dumb it down)
Rap it like you think I’m brain-dead
Say it plain, say it slow, what you just said
If I’m trash, if I’m fake, put me in my place
Use the smallest little letters when you cut my face
(dumb it down)
All that venom in the simplest way
Tiny words for the hate that you spray
You can write me off, carve it on my grave
But bitch, dumb it downnn
‘Cause I’m digging out… of this cave

rap, Aggressive trap-metal meets industrial hip hop: distorted 808s, chainsaw synths, and blown-out guitars. Male vocals scream-rapped in the hook, tight double-time in verses, with glitchy stutters and abrupt drops. Choruses hit like a wall of noise, verses carve out a pocket for the vocal, occasional pitch-shifted ad-libs and crowd chants on key lines., industrial, metal, hip hop, hardcore
