FAME. by POETIK Lyrics
[Intro: Raggadat Cris]
I don't want the fame but I want the life
Shootin' for the stars, you gon' see me shine
I'ma play the game runnin' from the fame
Drivin' me insane, runnin' from the fame
I don't want the fame but I want the life (life)
Shootin' for the stars, you gon' see me shine (shine)
I'ma play the game runnin' from the fame (yeah)
Drivin' me insane (yeah), runnin' from the fame
[Verse 1: POETIK]
Hate to breathe, the pang hurtin'
As long as I got mouths to feed, I stay workin'
I ain't built for that sucka shit, I'm sucka-free
You really want a Poet verse? Then run a fee
And preachers ask for money right after the sermon
But it's clear to me my kind's the kind you not concerned with
This fast life we livin' has no guarantees
Except we pour our liquor for the casualties
Mama gave me purpose, scratch the surface, I'm a young chief
Tulafale ulavale uso mo le aso vale, flag up on the [?]
I been on the streets daily; big facts, gettin' money
Haters never do nothin' real, killers gunnin' for me
[Intro: Raggadat Cris & POETIK]
I don't want the fame but I want the life (life)
Shootin' for the stars, you gon' see me shine (shine)
I'ma play the game runnin' from the fame (fame)
Drivin' me insane (sane), runnin' from the fame (yeah)
I don't want the fame but I want the life (life)
Shootin' for the stars, you gon' see me shine (shine)
I'ma play the game runnin' from the fame (fame)
Drivin' me insane (sane), runnin' from the fame
[Verse 2: POETIK]
I don't need the bar time, I pay the price
When they say Poetik, recognize the sacrifice
Hustle to the afterlife, fuck, a fool ain't half as nice
I bet you heard about the uso, a beast on the beat
Poly sumo number uno, now let's get this paper
Shoot at the stars like a block boy, gimme the paper
[?] where we [?], but now these bad bitches want it from me
Police is at my do', I'm like, "woah, I'm rappin' now"
We ain't trappin' for the dough
Swiggin' with my [?]
Top shelf, old age
Stack now, ball later, smokin' finer soleis
Pardon me but I'm pro-lace
Don't make me have to catch a vic
Me and Chris, we gettin' paid
While they sit around and hate, haha
[Chorus: Raggadat Cris & POETIK]
I don't want the fame but I want the life (life)
Shootin' for the stars, you gon' see me shine (bright)
I'ma play the game runnin' from the fame (woah)
Drivin' me insane (woo), runnin' from the fame (yeah)
I don't want the fame but I want the life (life)
Shootin' for the stars (yaa-ah), you gon' see me shine (shine)
I'ma play the game runnin' from the fame (fame)
Drivin' me insane (yeah), runnin' from the fame (yeeeah-eah-eah)
I don't want the fame but I want the life (life)
Shootin' for the stars, you gon' see me shine (bright)
I'ma play the game runnin' from the fame (woah)
Drivin' me insane (woo), runnin' from the fame (yeah)
