Текст песни

People just don't see how much work is really involved

In this rap shit

I didn't know it

I didn't see it

I never saw it until I was actually in it

You really gotta be in it

To understand what it's like

But you always gotta

People always gotta see you smile

You always gotta put on that fake

You know what I'm saying?

Like, no matter what you just been through

So you wanna be a rap superstar

And live large, a big house

Five cars, you're in charge

Comin' up in the world

Don't trust nobody

Gotta look over your shoulder constantly

I remember the days when I was a young kid growing up

Looking in the mirror, dreaming about blowing up

To rock crowds, make money

Chill with the honeys

Sign autographs and whatever the people want from me

Shit's funny

How impossible dreams manifest and the games that be coming with it

Never the less you gotta go for the gusto

But you don't know about the blood sweat and tears

And losing some of your peers

And losing some of your self

Through the years past, gone by

Hopefully you don't manifest for the wrong guy

Egomaniac in the brainiac

Don't know how to act

Shit's deep

Forty-eight tracks

Studio gangsta Mack

Sign a deal, think's he's gonna make a mil', but never will

'Til he crosses over still

Fillin' your head

With fantasies, come with me

Just to sacrifice the taste of makin' cheese

You want to be a rap superstar in the biz

And take shit from people who don't know what it is

I wish it was all fun and games

But the price of fame is high

And some can't pay to play

Feel trapped in what you rapping about

Tell me what happened when you lost clout

The rout you took started collapsing

No fans

And everybody shits on your name

So you wanna be a rap superstar

And live large, a big house

Five cars, you're in charge

Comin' up in the world

Gotta look over your shoulder constantly

To be a rap superstar

And live large, a big house

Five cars, you're in charge

Comin' up in the world

Gotta look over your shoulder constantly

When you sign to a record label

You don't know you sign your life over

And these white boys don't care about you

'Cause the minute you fall off

They'll find another Noreaga

And they'll find another Capone-n-Noreaga

And they'll find another B-Real

So you need to just keep

Do what you gotta do while your hot

And motherfuckin' get out the game

Just stick to the drug game

It's even worse because in the drug game

You can shoot 'em and kill 'em

In this game, if somebody jerk you

No matter what you just been through

Shit has gotta be right

You gotta approach people

You gotta be on the up and up

And everything gotta be all good

When you see someone, slap hands with 'em

You know what I'm sayin'? Give 'em a pound

Or whatever it is, you know?

But you always gotta act like it ain't shit

So you wanna be a rap superstar

And live large, a big house

Five cars, you're in charge

Comin' up in the world

Gotta look over your shoulder constantly

To be a rap superstar

And live large, a big house

Five cars, you're in charge

Comin' up in the world

Gotta look over your shoulder constantly

My own son don't know me

I'm chillin' in the hotel room, lonely

But I thank God I'm with my homies

But sometimes I wish I was back home

But only no radio or videos

'cause they show me no love

The phony gotta hit the road slowly

So the record gets pushed by Sony

I'm in the middle like Monie

And the press say that

My own people disowned me

And the best way back

Is to keep your head straight

Never inflate the cranium

Your crew worried about them honeys at The Palladium

Who just want to cling on, swing on

And so on, go on, fall off

To the next rap superstar

With no shame (shame), give him a year

And they'll be right out the game

The same as the last one

Started getting ignored

This ain't easy take it from Weezy

Sleezy people want to be cheesey

So you wanna be a rap superstar

And live large, a big house

Five cars, you're in charge

Comin' up in the world

Gotta look over your shoulder constantly

To be a rap superstar

And live large, a big house

Five cars, you're in charge

Comin' up in the world

Gotta look over your shoulder constantly
