Just Like Us

If life was a movie, would I be the plot
Would I be the focus of every single shot
Would I be the lead who comes out on top
Would I be the extra and told not to talk
I should keep quiet
I don't need to try
Just do what I'm told yeah and just walk by
Don't be an eyesore
Don't stick out
Just hide in the shadows of everyone else
Not much will change
If I don't get the chance
I just wanna prove that I'm more than they planned
So when they light up the scene
I don't care what you see
I know what I'm made of
I know what I can be

Go and let 'em know that I'm not here to play around
Drown 'em out with all of my progress, I'm here to break ground
Bow down to the crown, while the alarm sounds
Go inform the crowd I'm taking over now
Your negativity increase my dopamine, it's dope of me
Cause I'm a wave in the open sea, you'd oversee
Forget the shit talk a bit and sit I left you an open seat
Cause time is money, karma's free

If hell is burning down, I can't wait around
To count the days till I make it out
Guided by a shooting star, all the ones who made it far
Were just like us at the very start

This lonely street I walk, it cracks under my feet
Every step I make can't take the weight of me
Take the weight
Take the weight
Take the weight away from me

All eyes around me are on me
Watching every inch of my skin like a movie
Wait for me to mess it all up so they can walk up
And straight up hock up a loogie and spit it on my feet
They don't
Give a shit about me
Till someone famous has something to say about me
Then all they really want's a fountain to feed their greed
And give 'em the green
And even then I'd still be dirt at their feet
Cause I'm
Just a rock that they kick on the street
A piece of gum stuck under their seat
Another annoying childish wanna be freak
That everyone just wants to critique
So feel free to grit your teeth and nibble my teat then bend a knee and suck me clean
Cause only then will you get a reaction from me
Only then will you get it from me

If hell is burning down, I can't wait around
To count the days till I make it out
Guided by a shooting star, all the ones who made it far
Were just like us at the very start
