Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
People have been following not leading Well I've been leading not following I'm an example I’ve been a leader my entire life I know because I’ve seen it in plain sight From the beats I’ve made to the songs I’ve done To everything I do under the sun I don’t follow, I lead. I’m an example Of what happens when your ambition is ample And you want to stand out in the best possible way But you don’t want to stay on the familiar path I did the math, studied rap albums, that’s all I’ve done Now I produce and rap, proving I ain’t dumb But I do it to show the show the world it ain’t impossible For a rapper to be autistic, it is possible Just listen to the words I’m spitting on this track It’s not lax, it’s complex and that’s a fact I may not be who I’m supposed to be But I am me, and that’s who I am Lead, don’t follow, that’s my definition If you’re a follower then you’ve got to listen To my advice, I’m trying to make you think twice About the direction you’re in, it’s not very nice And if you lead by example, you’re number one This is more fun than trying to conform Society wants you this way since the day you were born So go ahead, go out and do what you need to do "Lead don’t follow" is an example I have set So what if I get a lot of disrespect I make the music I want and that makes me happy But I won’t be happy until they all gets a taste Of the T. Karras flow, the T. Karras show My ambition isn’t to make dough but to let you know That I have skills as an artist and I go the hardest On any track that they provide, I go the farthest Provide you with deep meaning everywhere that I go With the simplicity that’ll help you get more Out of life, I may be complex sometimes But there are a lot of rhymes I need to get off my mind So I set this example in hopes that others will follow Not wallow around as if they’re work isn’t good For the masses, because those people are classless They may be popular but they don’t make classics Lead, don’t follow, that’s my definition If you’re a follower then you’ve got to listen To my advice, I’m trying to make you think twice About the direction you’re in, it’s not very nice And if you lead by example, you’re number one This is more fun than trying to conform Society wants you this way since the day you were born So go ahead, go out and do what you need to do Now I’ve had it with what they shove down our throats People being followers and it just truly hurts To see a lack of creativity going around Hearing the same sound can make a person insane It’s so lame when there’s only one style of music Why can’t rappers take their skills and just choose to Go outside the box, think a little here and there What are you scared of? Your music being denied? I provide the unique tunes that music’s been missin’ While all the other people have been butt-kissin’ I’ve been following my own path, being independent Some people are too “in shock” to even comprehend it How I lead by example, not follow everybody else All that following can lead to a lack of self Individuality is what you need if you want to make it Success is out there, you just gotta reach and take it Lead, don’t follow, that’s my definition If you’re a follower then you’ve got to listen To my advice, I’m trying to make you think twice About the direction you’re in, it’s not very nice And if you lead by example, you’re number one This is more fun than trying to conform Society wants you this way since the day you were born So go ahead, go out and do what you need to do Lead, don’t follow, that’s my definition If you’re a follower then you’ve got to listen To my advice, I’m trying to make you think twice About the direction you’re in, it’s not very nice And if you lead by example, you’re number one This is more fun than trying to conform Society wants you this way since the day you were born So go ahead, go out and do what you need to do
