Been sick with the pen since I was
ten inches tall
I'm relentless, you guessed it,
back with the vengeance
In the set list, every sentence
so raw you can sense it
No question, tryna be the best that
Ever walked this Earth, if I'm not,
then I'm next up
Dressed up like I'm 'bout
to hit a bank or somethin'
Yeah, I am not the one you
wanna mess with, no!
When I come into the room,
put your heads down
I'm a little bit TØP, Stressed Out
What does that mean?
I'm a rap fiend with a bad lead
You could run if you want,
but you'll never catch me
So cold with it, y'all don't get it
Let you put me in a cage just
so I can open it
Handcuffed, hands up,
this is dope to me
Oh, you thought you had me
captured? So funny
Better run from me
I don't think you really understand
what this does for me
I dress bummy, but I clean up nice
They ain't never seen this side of me
Long T- shirt, they eyein' me
Rules don't apply to me
You better give me my privacy
I got the fans I got because I'm takin'
them behind the scenes
You played hide- and- seek,
I played hide- from- me, agh!
Yeah, look at all that we
accomplished
Quittin' for me's not an option
I wanna look at my kids in the
face when I'm older
And say I've been something admirable
Fast checks, fast women,
that don't inspire me, no!
You don't wanna know what's goin'
on inside my personal life?
Then get out my diary, yeah
I wanna know what it's like to be happy
I wanna know what it's like
to wake up in the morning
And feel like it's real when I'm
laughin' (yeah!)
I wanna know what it's like
to sit down with my friends
And feel like they might
understand me (woo!)
I wanna know that the people around me care
less about Grammys and more about family
I wanna know, I wanna know,
I wanna know (Yeah, yeah!)
I wanna know, I wanna know
I wanna know,
I wanna know (Yeah, I wanna know)
I wanna know, I wanna know
Yeah, record labels'
signin' artists
They ain't got a clue what to do with
Why would I put my career in the hands
Of someone that don't even
know what they doin'?
Why would I sit in a room full of people
That don't even care about me
Or my future and tell me they ain't
really feelin' the vision
Then hop on the wagon the moment it's movin',
huh?
Heard you tellin' people you don't really
like the content
Whatchu wanna hear me rap about?
How I'm on a roll gettin'
side chicks?
You should treat your mouth like
your phone in a movie theater
Put that on si lence
I don't care what everybody
else is doin'
I'm just bein' me
and that's not how I live
Oh my, oh my, yeah,
I'm in the zone now
Zoned out, come to my show
with they phones out
Whole crowd, oh wow,
that's wild, tone down, no!
I have created my own style
I have created my own sound
Oh, you didn't know?
Well, you know it now
Slowin' down
Livin' happy, this is what I was made for
They say you get what you paid for
Grandpa told me, "Always look to Heaven
Try to pay attention when you
talkin' to God," yeah
I wish I'd paid more,
I shoulda prayed more
Everybody's out here shoppin'
Tryna find a different product
in the same stores
Everybody wants they
dream to fall in they lap
But don't wanna work for it
I've been doin' this
since I was just a kid
And mama bought me 8 Mile
at the movie store
Hopin' someday maybe
I could do what I love
For a livin' with people I care for
People that care more about
me as person
Than money I make for 'em, yeah!
I wanna know what it's like to be happy
I wanna know what it's like
to wake up in the morning
And feel like it's real when
I'm laughin' (yeah!)
I wanna know what it's like
to sit down with my friends
And feel like they might
understand me (woo!)
I wanna know that the people
around me care less
About Grammys and more about family
I wanna know, I wanna know,
I wanna know (Woo! Yo!)
I wanna know,
I wanna know (Yeah, I wanna know)
I wanna know, I wanna know
I wanna know, I wanna know (Woo!)
