Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
Shakespeare said it already The world's already a stage We was just players Putting facades, cover up with the glamor Hoping to avoid all the naysayers Putting on a performance Hoping all these hits land Accumulate mass acres Killing the show, wasn't meek I want all the mills, I'm a dream chaser Breaking a leg, and also an arm I'm paying my cost To see an apostrophe What it really mean to be a boss Tossed to the side, I ain't what they like Certain things, wasn't trying to entertain Want to exit the stage I ain't here to complain Cause eventually this going to pay more than the bills How much attention till I feel like I'm filled I don't know but I got to kill Time, no I got to kill it every time in front of a mic Land a magazine in the future Wheels spinning like a bike Pedaling to the medal Wasn't too much in the gas tank Anything less than chasing my dream I consider that like a bad day Avoiding mistakes of those that came way before me I can't be that way Trying to add meaning to my last name Took off the mask, physical But metaphor was a task Accustomed to the costume They consume pizzazz We in a show, fear being broken down How do I heal with the cast? Leaving impressions that really last Help, I never ask Masquerade for the show I'm masking my feelings for sure No biggie, don't kick down my door Catch me on the floor Ask me if I'm ok I'mma just say that I'm ok Internally I was like no way Sometimes I feel like there's no way I ain't ghetto boy But my mind playing tricks on me I wonder who wish on me Remotely out my control Who going to switch on me? Not Ja's rule to hide tickets on me Keep it 50 cent, nah keep it a hundred Everything less equivalent, consider it nothing Back then you was fronting I ain't got to diss, or cuss In order to make a point for my discussion The pills that need to be swallowed In my hand yeah I'm thinking about flushing Thinking to myself How am I supposed flourish? A lot of on my plate but still I feel malnourished I need that food for the soul Food for my thoughts I need to eat the fruits of the spirit Praying to God like do you hear it? Trying to be like Jesus See how it turned the tables Maybe that's the reason I speak In the parables and the fables Breaking the fourth wall Labyrinth more than the place Really it was my mind Uncovering layers about myself Uncomfortable with what I was starting to find Perform for the people Performing in front of myself Weight of the world I feel on my delts Nowadays I need something else This not even a song no more This more like a soliloquy I went through the blues I could feel the breeze Heart cold like ice are you feeling me? Giving them something munch on Used to be the bag they punch on Now here's the kick Nowadays I'm staying equipped I got people I need to show up for Future kids they won't grow up poor Hope my momma won't cry no more I ain't even gotta lie no more Times I ain't feel like trying no more Feel like I ain't got that fire no more Feel like I ain't fly can't fly no more I ain't even touching the sky no more All those thoughts that I used to think I was more than at the brink Couldn't recognize myself in the mirror Washing with water from the sink Had to look deep in myself Infinity, trying to find the missing link So I could take off Trying to grow You'd love to see me shrink Crab in the bucket want to bring me down I can't let them cling I can't let them cut my wings Now I'm on to better things Window to my soul Tinted rarely let them see my pain Learned that getting it off of muscle Often times don't lead to gain Hoping to be in the book of life Right now, I'm just turning a page Y'all ain't got to love me But I'm leaving everything right on the stage I'm leaving it all on the stage
