Going to preface my opinion with IMO because you are a bunch of sensitive pussies, but spoonful blows ass. Sounds like shit (to me) (IMO). Also, I'm not into the whole emo rap scene... Some dude in his late twenties singing "I'm a cubic zirconium" would in theory be something my essence would instantly reject. However, sadistiks flow, voice and rhyming makes up for the subject matter/lyricism. The man knows how to pick beats and put together an album. Spoonful, from what I've heard, is just awful. "You pretend to feel the muscles, pretend I can't feel the fat".... Who can relate to this? I just wasn't subjected to the same conditions (rape) as this obviously tortured individual because this is pathetic. incredibly whiney and repulsive. The day I find myself wearing a hoodie leaning against a tree relating to this nonsense will be the day I jump off a cliff and end it all. Not willy. Not ever shun.
or at least, who can't empathise with that, and see that it's good writing... as relating to it shouldn't rly matter at all if u are judging the quality.

I'm not tryin to be rude, but I sincerely wanna fuck the taste out of your mouth
That's just a normal thought conveyed in the least interesting way possible. Don't let your friends influence you in a negative way. Nothing to see here. The way he words it is actually alienating to me because he acts like its some profound insight. Common sense mun.
lol @ being reductionist. but i mainly like this line for relating to it anyway, as i was saying with the truism-ness of it.
it's ambiguous whether its negative tho m8 & he isn't being profound at all, lol. i dont see how that could be alienating at all.
i actually think the following part, 2 lines later is a bit over-dramatic tho "i don't give a fuck if u accept me". and that's my biggest spoonfull criticism in all of his music.

I was walking down the street one day And saw a woman in a car that was really environmentally friendly Small, too small for anyone to drive But the sun’s still hanging and the plants are alive Well, some of the plants She had a bumper sticker that said “make food but not war” With a headband on Singing to a dead man’s song Her eyes said where have all the good men gone Chewing on a whole grain pita with green sticking out the sides Smelling like weed and formaldehyde and patchouli And when she watches a movie, she doesn’t call it a movie She calls it a film Looking like a non-conformist is the ultimate sign of conformity So every now and then she dresses form fitting But today she’s got a Beatle shirt underneath the button up Her mum was a fan when they were coming up It’s so cliché, So predictable, So ridiculous, So kissable, The sickness that I caught is telling me to make you up a vegan dinner if you want So come here I really like the hippy in you No way, you’re a feminist too?

I don't think its ambiguous at all. "I don't give a fuck if you accept me". He's saying those lines sarcastically. Its alienating because its an extremely basic thought expressed in a pretentious, self pitying and as you say overly dramatic way.
I think that song describes your next love interest. Nah but I'm kinda toasted atm, let me reply in the morning.. but from what I read the lyrics were kinda cool making fun of a hipster lady.
