Fame |
| ARF! |
| Uhh. |
| Take it for what it’s worth, my birth was a blessing |
| Sent to live and die, on earth as a lesson |
| We each have a star, all we have to do is find it |
| Once you do, everyone who sees it will be blinded (WHAT?) |
| They’ll tell you that you’re bright, and say you have a future |
| When you turn your back, same cats’ll try to shoot ya |
| Niggas ain’t shit, I can live on both sides of the fence |
| Forget what you do, when you talk, see what you really meant (aight?) |
| That’s what I thought, them niggas was bluffin (uh) |
| They talk all day but say, nothin (uh) |
| It gets so dark (what?) the pain’s so intense |
| Since this first rain it’s like it’s rained ever since (WHAT?) |
| Never got paid for a rhyme but I flow (whoo) |
| Never got a plate on time but I grow (whoo) |
| Live your life, STAY on the line but I go (UHH) |
| Went from doin crime to bein kind cause I know |
| Chorus: DMX (repeat 2X) |
| I’m gon' live forever, I’m never gon' die |
| Only thing I fear is that I’m never gon' fly |
| Carry my weight but I’m never gon' cry |
| Shit I tell y’all niggas straight cause I’m never gon' lie |
| What is about who I am that makes me unforgettable (HMM) |
| What it is about what I’ve done that makes it so incredible (uhh) |
| «More money, more problems» -- well the fame was worse (uh-huh) |
| I reached out for love and what came back was thirst (WHAT?) |
| Blessed with the curse (uh) niggas don’t hear me |
| Niggas don’t hear me, Y’ALL NIGGAZ, don’t hear me (uh) |
| What’d I just say? |
| «Niggas don’t hear you!» |
| See that? |
| You gots to FEEL ME to catch what I’m sayin, BELIEVE THAT (UHH!) |
| But leave that, alone (WHAT?) |
| We gon' make a nigga wanna be at, your home (WHAT?) |
| Oh you kinda quiet with the heat at, your dome (UHH!) |
| If the dog got he’s gonna bring back a bone |
| Cause we got the chrome (C'MON!) |
| This is what I live for, or die for |
| I’m the nigga with the high score, you try for |
| What you niggas wanna lie for? |
| It changes nothin |
| I’m true for cats, yet some strangers bluffin |
| Now if I take what he gave me and I, use it right (uh-huh) |
| In other words if I listen and, use the light (uh-huh) |
| Then what I say will remain here, after I’m gone |
| Still here, on the strength of a song, I live on (HMM) |
| No second-guessin on what I stood for, I was good for |
| Stoppin niggas from killin each other in the hood war (UHH) |
| Comin through showin love, throwin up (UHH) |
| Them cats not throwin love, you know whassup (WHAT?) |
| Dark Man baby, that’s my name |
| And I gots to be the realest nigga (UHH) up in this game |
| Cause ain’t no shame, they don’t make em like, this no more |
| Real to the core, big heart but built for war |
| I stand for what I believe in |
| Even if what I believe in stops me from breathin |
| Relatives grievin, but I ain’t went nowhere |
| Listen to the song (C'MON) I’m right there |
