The Fame





[Verse 1]

I sit down and think about the dreams I have,
They aint about wealth or being the next big fad.
There about destroying on the mic writing like i do now,
Except infront of screaming fans and crowds
Telling the cold truth showing how i feel
I look at fake rappers today and ask whats the deal?
What ever happened to the style of tupac and biggie
Who not only rapped but asked the fans do you feel me?
Dont get me wrong, I dont hate mainstream and lil wayne,
I just wish they'd rap about something,
Besides the money, cars and cocain.
Think and actually rap with there brain,
Instead of sounding like idiots mentally insane.
If it was me i wouldn't but rap to shame
I wouldn't want money,
Only care to about expressing happyness or pain
Showing the world, man what would i do with fame.


[Chorus]


I want the fame.
It aint about money and cars,
Its about the name.
The respect from going so far,
To run the game.
Listen to the crowds aplaud,
Its so insane,
Just how much i would do to have fame.

I want the fame.
It aint about money and cars,
Its about the name.
The respect from going so far,
To run the game.
Listen to the crowds aplaud,
Its so insane,
Just how much i would do to have fame
Keep trying yo cause thats my dream.
Go agaisnt all odds,
No matter how impossible it seems.


[Verse 2]

Theres something about the feeling you get,
When people are feeling and liking your ***.
When they relate to every line you spit.
That it goes threw there souls and into there heart it hits.
The feeling is worth every hour you sit,
Writing it down making sure every word fits.
Its energetic and the feelings so great,
Almost transfering into a different mind state.
So many people like it,
You dont even notice the ones who hate.
I crave this so much,
I want it as my fate.


[Chorus]

I want the fame.
It aint about money and cars,
Its about the name.
The respect from going so far,
To run the game.
Listen to the crowds aplaud,
Its so insane,
Just how much i would do to have fame.

I want the fame.
It aint about money and cars,
Its about the name.
The respect from going so far,
To run the game.
Listen to the crowds aplaud,
Its so insane,
Just how much i would do to have fame
Keep trying yo cause thats my dream.
Go agaisnt all odds,
No matter how impossible it seems.


[Verse 3]

Sucess isnt how much money you got,
Its about how much you've changed.
I would change a lot.
and show nothing is outa range.
Tupac said threw art we can change the world,
Well i looked at mainstream rap and i almost hurled
See he was like me, it wasnt just for money,
Wasnt just for mansions, cars, or a playboy bunny.
What ever happened to staying true to yourself,
Seems all that disapears when you find wealth.
They say they had hard childhoods,
There citys where no good.
But with all those millions,
They never think to help there hood.
Saying they'll always be true to the ghetto,
Well knock on wood.
If it was me id only spit what was true,
If you helped me in life, id remeber you.
Money can change people i cant doubt it.
But id be the same inside with or without it,
Still have the same messages, write it, and shout it.
No matter how much success or what people say about it.
I'll be the same person no matter how much i gain.
Wishing that someday everyone knows my name.
This is my dream i can feel it inside my veins.
I want it so bad, But not for the reasons you want fame.


[Chorus]

I want the fame.
It aint about money and cars,
Its about the name.
The respect from going so far,
To run the game.
Listen to the crowds aplaud,
Its so insane,
Just how much i would do to have fame.

I want the fame.
It aint about money and cars,
Its about the name.
The respect from going so far,
To run the game.
Listen to the crowds aplaud,
Its so insane,
Just how much i would do to have fame
Keep trying yo cause thats my dream.
Go agaisnt all odds,
No matter how impossible it seems.
