Cover art for Yonkers lyrics by Tyler, the Creator

This song is about him arguing with the person inside is head, who he wants to be. Look up the definition of paradox, it means contradiction. The whole song is a contradictions of itself.

"I'm a fuckin walkin paradox 'no I'm not'" (contradiction)

"Green paper, gold teeth and pregnant gold retrievers, all I want. Fuck money, diamonds and bitches don't need em" (green paper= money, gold teether=jewels/diamonds, pregnant gold retrievers=bitches so yet another contradiction)

Everyone has a voice inside there head telling them to do bad things, to be the cool person they want to be. For him this is that person.

He says in a interview explaining this song all this. He doesn't just rap about stupid things, sure he's inappropriate but he's young, joking around and a lot of his songs have a deeper meaning. So don't judge a book by it's cover because you're obviously not complex enough to look past the cover.
