[00:08.137]Don't idolize your heroes, you should try stay awake
[00:14.354]Superman got kryptonite, and you can't fly with a cape
[00:19.814]See everybody got problems, don't know how much they can take
[00:26.527]Ghosts ain't real, and Santa Claus is fake
[00:30.655]When I was five, my sister played me all of Motown
[00:33.894]Bebe & Cece, Whitney, Stevie, Smokey Robinson
[00:36.741]I fell in love, I never felt nothing so beautiful
[00:40.215]Felt like a hit of ****, I'm smoking in the cubicle
[00:42.357]She played me Stan by Eminem, I felt the rain pouring
[00:46.302]I saw the movie but I listened to the film scoring
[00:49.358]That was the visual soundtrack to my life
[00:51.605]Just like Cudi said before he tried to take his life
[00:55.157]Now I'm living good
[00:56.098]I'm listening to Hov, then Piano Man by Billy Joel
[00:58.919]All these colors and my palette start to shine
[01:01.688]But it got darker over time, the 27 club divine
[01:04.927]I start to see that all these stars one day run dry
[01:07.487]Later on she played me Amy sipping wine
[01:09.499]Showed me Jimmy, Elton John
[01:11.014]Freddie Mercury like Hercules, the greatest of all time
[01:14.148]The list goes on and on
[01:14.566]But when she played me Chaka Khan
[01:17.335]And then she played me Through the Wire
[01:18.851]That was when I came alive
[01:20.340]I hear this industry is ****ed
[01:21.985]That's why they all ran out of luck
[01:23.396]They take your music, then you're stuck
[01:24.885]You're just supply
[01:26.478]But still I never let it go, that one moment
[01:28.960]When she showed me Mr. West
[01:30.423]I felt like he would always fly
[01:31.886]*He got a big ego* but he never lied
[01:35.726]He really is the greatest I can see it in his eyes
[01:38.390]Everytime I think about Good Life, feel like I'm high
[01:41.708]How he cut PYT, man that **** just make me smile
[01:44.660]Now they got me thinking why do all my heroes always die?
[01:48.970]Is all the beauty in their music just a lie?
[01:51.451]See Mr. West ain't never been shy
[01:54.403]But when he went away that **** really made me cry
[01:57.590]I been looking for heroes in some other men
[02:00.934]And when they fall I pick 'em up 'cause I can't understand
[02:03.964]They drop the ball, I pick it up, I'm what you call a stan
[02:07.020]I'm broken, feel like I'll never trust again
[02:09.972]That's why they say
[02:10.730]Life's a ***** and then you die
[02:12.611]And when the real ones die, all the fake ones multiply
[02:16.921]I look at heaven still trying to touch the sky
[02:19.298]But the only question I'm asking is why
[02:23.007]I trust myself to look the devil in his eyes
[02:25.149]And stick to my guns and follow what was prophesied
[02:28.780]I trust myself to face the pitfalls when I try, and I fail
[02:32.385]And to face the music when I come outside
[02:34.997]You see it's north south east west, it's sinners and it's saints
[02:38.420]You pray for your idols but what you want is what they ain't
[02:41.424]Sometimes I feel like music is the only medicine
[02:44.428]So why the **** we drugged up on all this medicine?
[02:47.615]Believe in yourself, if they can't do it hope you can
[02:50.566]They're gone too soon, but don't give up, just go again
[02:53.623]Believe in yourself, show love to all your friends
[02:56.810]Keep your fam close, the only love that he demands
[02:59.892]Don't work your life away, take a break
[03:03.079]Call your mama, hug your daddy
[03:04.150]Take your shorty on a date
[03:05.900]Sister, brother, son and daughter it's all you got
[03:07.912]For God's sake, and don't dehumanize your heroes
[03:10.367]You'll be crying at their wake
[03:12.614]Heroes and ******es
[03:14.024]
