Lyrics Who I Am - Tom MacDonald

Who I Am

I 'on't even know where I’m headed
I just wanna get there
I don’t wanna live how I’m livin'
«Dope"on my t-shirt
I just wanna do my thing
True to the mood I’m in
I’mma be who I am
Sell it to the kids and the crew they rep and they fuck with it
I don’t wanna be another rapper with a gimmick
I just wanna keep it real with the people who’ll listen
I ain’t gonna follow a trend 'cause I’m a leader
I ain’t gonna pray to a god I don’t believe it, Jesus!
I 'on't even know where I’m at
But, I know where I been
Yeah, I know where I been and I’m not goin' back
'Cause the shit that I got into was some hella bad thangs
Strippers and bikers and pistols and psychics
And flippin' the white shit, the bitches
I hope I’m forgiven, I hope my mama don’t hear this one
She thought that I was at work I was dealin' out blow
I would take it back if I could
Then again, prob’ly not
You ain’t gonna change how I feel
This is who I am
I 'on't even know where I’m headed
I just wanna get there
I don’t wanna live how I’m livin'
«Dope"on my t-shirt
I just wanna do my thing
True to the mood I’m in
I’mma be who I am
Sell it to the kids and the crew they rep and they fuck with it
I 'on't even know where I’m headed
I just wanna get there
I don’t wanna live how I’m livin'
«Dope"on my t-shirt
I just wanna do my thing
True to the mood I’m in
I’mma be who I am
Sell it to the kids and the crew they rep and they fuck with it
Don’t wanna be another white rapper with a habit
Eminem did it already, just let 'im have it
I wanna be an artist with opinions;
Picasso or da Vinci
With a sprinkle o' politics 'n' whiskey
I’mma do me
Made it out the gutter with a brand new dream
Make it up to everyone who still ain’t free
Everywhere I go like, «Free those mothafuckas!»
I don’t wanna limit my potential with a genre
Took a couple bullets and made it home to my mama
I don’t wanna measure what I’m worth by some dollars
Gold on my teeth, though!
(Heh!)
They want me to fit in a package
So my demographic will purchase the album
It’s not that I don’t understand it
I know it’s a business
I’m stuck in the middle like Malcolm
I’m realer than that, though
Go deeper than that, though
I realize that our agreement contractual
I don’t think that how I’m bein’s irrational
Maybe we should just try keepin' it casual
Y’all don’t gotta feel my thoughts
Y’all don’t gotta hold my hand
Y’all don’t gotta be my boss, now
This is who I am
I 'on't even know where I’m headed
I just wanna get there
I don’t wanna live how I’m livin'
«Dope"on my t-shirt
I just wanna do my thing
True to the mood I’m in
I’mma be who I am
Sell it to the kids and the crew they rep and they fuck with it
I 'on't even know where I’m headed
I just wanna get there
I don’t wanna live how I’m livin'
«Dope"on my t-shirt
I just wanna do my thing
True to the mood I’m in
I’mma be who I am
Sell it to the kids and the crew they rep and they fuck with it
(They-they-they want me to fit in a package)
I 'on't even know where I’m headed
(So my demographic will purchase the album)
I just wanna get there
I don’t wanna live how I’m livin'
«Dope"on my t-shirt
(Strippers and bikers and pistols and psychics)
I just wanna do my thing
(And flippin' the white shit, the bitches)
True to the mood I’m in
I’mma be who I am
(I hope I’m forgiven, I hope my mama don’t hear this one)
Sell it to the kids and the crew they rep and they fuck with it
(She thought that I was at work I was dealin' out blow)
