Limelight

Oh, what a marvelous thing my dear
To be among glorious stars in here
The limelight, the limelight
Say, ta ta, fading stars
Never wanna say it's over love
The limelight, the limelight

Excuse me, Niki, would you please, Minaj me?
And quickly, I promise not to bring Eric with me
Eric is respected, I am surprised, evidently
You've ever heard of Rakim, please, tell me how come?

I love it when you're rocking but my niggers say it's du du
Young money, old money, I get it true, true
The money then power respect, thanks Kimberley
Gotta make the money so somebody remembers me

Lyrics ain't gonna cut it, fuck it, I can just simply
Sell out to sell out crowds with a recipe
I see my destiny, star on a boardwalk
Grammy night, walkin' my family down the red carp

Simon Cowell, next American Idol is Reks, dog
I know you must think its utterly unjust, bla bla
Iata, iata, iata, I'm a rhymers rhymer
And I find the need to keep

Oh, what a marvelous thing my dear
To be among glorious stars in here
The limelight, the limelight
Say, ta ta, fading stars
Never wanna say it's over love
The limelight, the limelight

Pardon me, Taylor, but it's fairer for us to share the stage for a spell
So I can tell all the other beautiful people they are looking swell
New fashion fly as hell, the paparazzi get shots of my apparel
That's apparel for losers, apparently

You just ain't hip to the newest influences
Twitter, twitter, how I love my twit
I spit a little better
I go to TMZ, Vlad TV, gotta get the latest in beef
And fabulous gossip just to talk shit

When I text, watch as the LOL's add up
A nigga feel glad 'cause technology is sweet
Come follow me on facebook even if we never speak
Career, success, they meet
We popping show off barbeque to Boston
Awesome glamor and glits, I'm handling my shit so

Oh, what a marvelous thing my dear
To be among glorious stars in here
The limelight, the limelight
Say, ta ta, fading stars
Never wanna say it's over love
The limelight, the limelight

Lookin' at the XXL freshmen ten, oh well
Maybe next year when the showoff sell
A bunch of records off the shelf
I be on the cover with 'em
'Cause I give 'em something totally different

You know that, feel good rhythm
Used to hit 'em well, now they got the digital
Fuck a major, put it online it still sell
Homie on the twitter get the link

Cop a nigga tape on the itunes, you tuned to youtube
Improve my views, great
The hate even a blessing 'cause it give me a discussion
Will he make? It is the question

They say, Reks cool, but J Cole best reppin'
I like Cole, he cold fa show, check out the weapon
Tell Nas, Diddy, tell Dre, Reks, he a weapon
And I'm stepping in the limelight, sign the unsigned like

Oh, what a marvelous thing my dear
To be among glorious stars in here
The limelight, the limelight
Say, ta ta, fading stars
Never wanna say it's over love
The limelight, the limelight
