This song is about how everyone perceives themselves as the definition of a good person. I have had Christian relatives and friends tell me I will go to hell for questioning the existence of god. I have been shunned by former friends for choosing to associate with my gay friends. I have been told I was wrong many times simply for having a differing set of beliefs. I have been told where I should shop, what I should listen to, who I should be and what my goals and focus moving forward should be. This song is about being yourself and I love rocking hip hop shows and throwing metal to the crowd, watching reruns, making obscure movie references, hanging out with those closest to me and writing songs most will misinterpet as cocky or blasphemous. What you put into the world is what you inevitably get back I am just Nicholas Grooms and all I can do is be the best me I can be.
lyrics
Good people, good people
Put them hands up high and get em evil
You wanna grab the sky until you start to fly
And those poltergeists will speak deeper
The name is nicholas, im doin it gimmickless
go by "Grooms" to the masses your approval is imminent
cuz im doing it limitless, fluid, soothing and wicked
Spider Man be damned, I aint doin this "Venom"-less
Eddie brock and a little bit "The Rock"
What the hell is this? You ain't fuckin with my head
leave you mentally celibate
All these rappers putting emphasis on "money and cars"
I got so much power, spitting protein "bars"
Check this irony...How stupid are smart cars?
Got heart palpitations after drinking a "Rock Star"
some "Monster", some "Red Bull", some energy drinks
"Drink a case that shit, boy and grow those wings"
Its consumerism bullshit polluting these people
They say I need to seek Christ, that's delusional lingo
I guess I'll gain no entry to your magical kingdom,
Man, if only there was a website where Christians could mingle.
Good people, good people
Put them hands up high and get em evil
You wanna grab the sky until you start to fly
And those poltergeists will speak deeper
I've never made it rain with a stack of singles
I don't do it for the hip hop or hipster people
Never catch me shopping at American Eagle
even if they made their clothes for plus sized people
Never catch me in a club straight dancing it up
I'd be the guy in the corner with a solo cup
sipping quietly, avoiding the frat boys
head full of beats, always bumping that rap noise
Look at me! I'm old school you see...
I'm "OG" like Fratelli's in an ORV
crotch chop to my former boss, i'm keeping this blunt
quit my job, walked out, and I called her a cu---AHHHHHHHHH
I cant say it! Cuz you know respect is limitless
You know i'd hold the door even if you're a feminist
or a man, or your trans or your gay full of pride
even Ringo is a Starr playing "Ticket to Ride"
Good people, good people
Put them hands up high and get em evil
You wanna grab the sky until you start to fly
And those poltergeists will speak deeper
"Good people", listen up, know i'm talking to you
I ain't no one special, I'm just Nicholas Grooms
Sarcastic type of dude with the future to offer
like i'm part Kyle Reese and part Darlene Conner
I'm anxious everyday just counting my scars
You can buy my new book out at "Nobel and Barnes"
Wait reverse it, "Plexing" on a verse, "Mr. Perfect"
Damn right, undisputed champ when I rap, makes you nervous
Yeah you fear me, you know who you are,
You got some hearts painted blacker than some opium tar
Got me wiping off the mirror so you can see who you are
Like Schmidt, put a dollar in the "Douchebag Jar"
and be better...Try to be the best you can be
You don't need a million dollars or another TV
You don't need a million "likes" or a handful of selfies
Its the people in your life, that's the meaning of wealthy
Good people, good people
Put them hands up high and get em evil
You wanna grab the sky until you start to fly
And those poltergeists will speak deeper
