he doesnt need his name up in lights |

he just wants to be heard whether its the beat or the mic |
|
he feels so unlike every body else, alone |
|
in spite of the fact that some people still think that they know him |
|

|
its not about the salary, its all about reality |
|
and making some noise |
|
making the story |
|

that means when he puts it down, tak's pickin it up |
|
Who the hell is he anyway? |

|
never concerned with status |
|
but still leavin 'em starstruck |
|
humbled through oppurtunities |
|
givin despite the fact |
|
that many misjudge him |
|
because he makes a living from writing raps |
|
put it together himself |
|
and the picture connects |
|
never askin for someones help, or to get some respect |
|
hes only focused on what he wrote |
|
his will is beyond reach |
|
and now it all unfolds |
