Everybody Raps

Ain't it angst and hate that makes us famous
Either relate of make them think you're dangerous
Say you serve weight and bust at strangers
Getting laid and wasted daily, can't contain us
Making bank in crazy paper-chases
Three decades, walk a mile at my cadence
'Til the souls are smooth on both shoes
And you frayed the laces
Faces changing, jokers, aces
Some stick around like Puff or Mase's
Others leave no traces, never made it, didn't get writ to pages
Went from amazing and lazy and
Fans in your base just moved on to the latest and greatest
And now you're aimless, can't get a gist
Your music ageless, but you're not the favorite cuz

Everybody raps, everybody sings, everybody gonna be the next big thing
Everybody thinks they're gonna be living their dreams
Everybody wants everybody on their team
But nobody helps, nobody plans, nobody wanna go to work for the man
Nobody does everything they can
Nobody's gonna really know who I am cuz
Everybody raps, everybody sings, everybody gonna be the next big thing
Everybody thinks they're gonna be living their dreams
Everybody wants everybody on their team
But nobody helps, nobody plans, nobody wanna go to work for the man
Nobody does everything they can
Nobody's gonna really know who I am

Copy sounds of somebody else and chalk it up to influences
And if you decide to be yourself, you get hated on just for doin it
True I blew fuses abusing the music
Refuse to let follows and views be my muse cuz
That's nothing but nuisance. I choose this for more than amusement
I prove it through constant improvement
Green eyes looking for a blue-eyed view
Watch what happens when you sound new
One success after failing a few, and then
Other people think, "I can do that too"
Took what you found and then passed it around
Until the whole meaning got lost in a sound
What started profound is now ran in the ground
End up broke when you're broken down

End up broke when you're broken down
End up broke when you're broken down
End up broke when you're broken down
When you're broken down
When you're broken down
End up broke when you're broken down
End up broke when you're broken down
End up broke when you're broken down
Broken down, broken down

Everybody raps, everybody sings, everybody gonna be the next big thing
Everybody thinks they're gonna be living their dreams
Everybody wants everybody on their team

Everybody raps, everybody sings, everybody gonna be the next big thing
Everybody thinks they're gonna be living their dreams
Everybody wants everybody on their team
But nobody helps, nobody plans, nobody wanna go to work for the man
Nobody does everything they can
Nobody's gonna really know who I am cuz
Everybody raps, everybody sings, everybody gonna be the next big thing
Everybody thinks they're gonna be living their dreams
Everybody wants everybody on their team
But nobody helps, nobody plans, nobody wanna go to work for the man
Nobody does everything they can
Nobody's gonna really know who I am

Nobody helps
Nobody plans
Nobody wanna go to work for the man
Nobody does everything they can
Nobody's gonna really know who i am
