Lyrics Illy – Swear Jar

Text:

Way back in adolescence, I learnt one simple lesson
First impressions last and showin’ love don’t take much effort
I fanned out on an Idol got brushed and still won’t forget it
So these days when I see artists on that too cool shit my message to em’s like

All due respect here there’s no respect due
So fuck you, fuck you man.

Some artists on that high horse like they just put «Thriller» out
Some artists care bout music less than Instagram accounts
They told me drink that Kool-Aid, oh hell nah, I spit that out
And as much as I would love to give the benefit of doubt
I’m sayin nah…

All due respect here, there’s no respect due
If you in this for the status I dedicate this to you
I’m sayin’,

Fuck you and you and you and you
You’re cool, fuck you and I’m outta here
Fuck you and you and you and you
You’re cool but fuck you and I’m outta here
All due respect here, there’s no respect due
So fuck you.

Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah…

Okay let’s flip that to the wild shit people say to get attention,
You know the reason mama said don’t read no comment sections.
I hit back but whenever I tell em kiss my bare ass,
My two cents got me emptying my wallet in my swear jar.
Still all due respect here, there’s no respect due
So fuck you.

Oh my bad…

Pardon my french, putain, big no-no, wash my mouth out with soap
Oh you don’t like it, by all means yo hit my socials, let me know so

Hold breath till I reply then die waitin’ and have your folks post
Funeral details online so I can come take Snapchat photos man…

All due respect here, there’s no respect due
If you spend all day online just cuttin’ down what people do
My words to you are,

Fuck you and you and you and you
You’re cool but fuck you and I’m outta here
Fuck you and you and you and you
You’re cool nah fuck you and I’m outta here
All due respect here, there’s no respect due
So fuck you

One-two, one-two
Now ladies and gentleman I know I’m not perfect, hell
I’m probably guilty of this shit myself
But I’ve tried, oh I try not to put myself above nobody
Or get my kicks kicking someone else, yeah
But if you’re tired of the bullshit people throw your way
I’ve got this one little phrase that helps
It goes…

Fuck you and you and you and you
You’re cool, fuck you and I’m outta here
Fuck you and you and you and you
You’re cool, fuck you and I’m outta here
All due respect here, there’s no respect due
So fuck you.
