The Lyrics

It's all well and good to show off your accomplishments. Just make sure you, you know, actually accomplished them.
An impressive-ass sight if I have to be honest
Walls caked with paper white
Ev'ry one of them signed to prove you have some knowledge
More than me, that's no lie

But something here is not quite right
I've found some eye-raising clues
That you have seen to feed me lies
Diplomas are not true

First off: you're twenty-two and I see seven Masters
Doesn't add up, you know?
And I noticed a few duplicates, can't repeat them
I'm pretty sure that's so

Don't mind me as I walk around
A record must be made
These signatures look a bit off
Are they from who you claim?
Whether they're cut and pasted on
Or forged, it's pretty strange

Kinda hurts me to find that you thought I'd believe this
At face value, true pain
Even if I did buy it, you know I'd look closely
And spot the cheap-ass frames

Just waiting for the ass-pull line
That you had planned me to
Give hints on how to better hide
Diplomas that aren't true

But even then, that's simply rude
You thought I'd help you out in crime?
Yes, fraud's a crime, you doof
I need to go, post this online
Diplomas are not true

Very good and well done. Maybe the subject person got the diplomas from Trump University, which has long been discredited.
