[Intro: sample from Kanye West's "Pinocchio Story"]
|
"Do you really have the stamina?
|
For everybody that sees you that say, 'Where's my camera?'
|
For everybody that sees you, to say sign a autograph
|
For everybody that sees you cry, and say you oughta laugh
|
You oughta laugh!"
|
|
[Chorus: Kanye West sample (B.o.B)]
|
"Do you really have the stamina?"
|
(Do you have the stamina)
|
"For everybody that sees you that say, 'Where's my camera?'"
|
(Where's my camera)
|
"For everybody that sees you, to say sign a autograph"
|
(Sign an autograph)
|
"For everybody that sees you cry, and say you oughta laugh"
|
(You oughta laugh) "You oughta laugh!"
|
|
[Verse 1: B.o.B.]
|
Well, posing for pictures and living on a poster
|
The hardest thing for me is to keep my compsure
|
I ain't always happy, and I ain't always sad
|
But when the spotlight is on, you have to handle the task
|
And even the people who swear they love so bad
|
A go and put your dirty laundry on the cover of mags
|
Then everyone sees it and gets a good laugh
|
And now your whole persona is just a thing of the past
|
Now, when people see they ignore all the pain
|
They only think about the rumors and mistakes you made
|
So that's why I don't read all the comments on the blogs
|
Everybody's a fan if you boo or applaud
|
Now give me your energy, even if you're my enemy
|
Or trying to be friends with me, aggressively or timidly
|
Put my next to anyone in this industry
|
You still will never find someone that's in my league
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Verse 2: B.o.B.]
|
Celebrity this, celeberity that
|
Reality TV fiends addicted like crack and smack
|
My business is rap, and my business is politicing with that
|
And then my business is put on the map
|
Yeah, the bigger I get, the better the hat
|
The bttter the slacks, the better the shirts, the more I adapt
|
The more you pay attention to my sentences
|
The more you'll realize why I'm a lyrcist
|
And why I sacrifice my time for this experience
|
And why my album still isn't in your speakers yet
|
You think you know me now, and you ain't even seen me yet
|
Well, except maybe on your TV set
|
Bring the bridge
|
|
[Instrumental Break]
|
|
[Scratched:] "Bring the bridge"
|
|
[Chorus]
