[00:26.26]Come on, talk to em
[00:28.20]This is a story of them against us
[00:30.28]win or lose
[00:31.16]Forcing your feet into someone else's shoes
[00:33.68]Everybody's got something to say
[00:35.47]That we ought to live their way, what we're doing's not okay
[00:38.61]In this world, everybody's got a chip
[00:41.00]On both sides of the neck, got no respect, wait up a sec
[00:44.58]You ever feel like the pressure's too much to take? Too much weight?
[00:48.15]Ladies and gentlemen, if anybody can hear me right now, please shout back
[00:52.98]We're not the only ones feeling so trapped in the dream of somebody else
[00:57.06]In fact, they got their heads full of some overblown scheme
[01:00.20]Opportunity they missed back when they were sixteen
[01:02.53]And all they want to do is push you to be that
[01:04.95]And all you want to do is scream back
[01:07.29]Gonna be somebody
[01:09.53]For anybody telling me I can't, yeah

[01:18.97]I'm telling you the time has come, like that
[01:21.25]Gonna be someone
[01:23.56]And maybe you'll get it when I'm finally done
[01:25.72]We don't sleep to dream, we sleep to build stamina
[01:29.03]Energy to do our thing, get your camera
[01:31.67]Cause this ride is about to begin
[01:33.76]Sit down and buckle it in, let me say it again
[01:36.60]In this world, everybody's got a chip
[01:38.60]On both sides of the neck, got no respect, wait up a sec
[01:42.27]When I was young, they said the odds of making it were slim to none
[01:45.87]Ladies and--Fuck it, I'm tired of them saying the dream you have doesn't exist
[01:50.60]Telling you you're worthless, saying you should quit
[01:52.88]Basically telling you that you'll never be shit
[01:55.55]Really, they're pissed cause they'll never acheive
[01:57.36]Some opportunity they missed back when they were sixteen
[02:00.31]And all they want to do is push you to be that
[02:02.60]And all you want to do is scream back
[02:04.63]Uh, did God think you're crazy mumbling to yourself in the basement all day
[02:08.37]Uh, uh, uh and to yourself, my pops didn't dig it with shovelin it to myself
[02:12.16]My boys used to get it, they dug it because they felt
[02:14.69]My undertakin' took me, I was making in my stealth
[02:16.97]A wealth of rhymes of crazy, I would chuckle to myself
[02:19.42]Then they went into the mental rolodex
[02:21.77]See I'm 'bout heart like my brain in my chest
[02:24.31]And I took 'em to school where subjects were getting felt
[02:26.40]Books under my seat, notebook layin on my desk
[02:29.02]My teacher's like 'Mr. Jacko?', 'Yes?'
[02:31.53]'With all that knowledge, you ain't trying to college?
[02:33.62]Be a lawyer or a doctor, and get a whole lot of dollas?
[02:36.16]Rather degrade woman and glorify violence?'
[02:38.50]Well, work that works for me might not work for you
[02:41.11]No homework? I got work to do
[02:43.05]Gonna be somebody
[02:45.25]For anybody telling me I can't, yeah
[02:47.64]Gonna be someone
[02:50.06]For anyone who told me I had no chance
[02:52.29]Gonna be somebody
[02:55.12]I'm telling you the time has come, like that
[02:57.29]Gonna be someone
[02:59.63]And maybe you'll get it when I'm finally done
[03:01.69]I'm finally done
