lyrics

5. Be Somebody

Verse

Welcome to the first day of the rest of your life/ I’m still here building these beats demolishing Mics/ a lost soul that likes the loss of control/ a pessimist with optimistic dreams to hold/Gotta need somebody, but it’s hard to define the difference between love and lust some of the time/ Gotta want somebody, that’s where we gotta rewind and analyze and find the meaning of the last line/ Gotta love somebody that’s easier for me/ because of my true friends, my girl, my family/ and the insanity of a reality seems to deal/ when I sport lift injuries I head to home fields / Gotta hate somebody look get outta my face/ Gotta hate somebody, man I don’t wanna debate/ Gotta hate somebody, man I don’t believe this you must of confused my kindness as a sign of weakness/ you pushed me to hard and I’m able to break/ Gotta hurt somebody and you’ve taken first place/ I don’t discriminate when it comes to foe’s but a bad man, be a bad man I suppose/ Gotta find somebody, and a person I find be the same person lurking in the back of my mind/ Gotta be somebody, and that person I be, Simplex, Andrew, Simmo Ah me!

Chorus

Gotta need somebody, gotta want somebody, gotta love somebody, gotta hate somebody, gotta hurt somebody, gotta find somebody, gotta be somebody, gotta be somebody

Verse

And who I be far from perfect but far from worthless/ certain on a couple of things but always constantly searching/ I keep a curtain on feelings not keen revealing, alright/ probably the reason why I keep on needing to write/I’m a creature of night but need the light of the day/ to find a balance is a challenge but I manage to stay/ out of the red, maybe, mostly, well kinda, yeah sorta, sometimes the borders get blurry from every double I order/ and then its trouble I’m caught up a kind of bubble disorder/ and when I pop, stop! Man I should of got water/ no shit, the older I get the slower I seem to learn/ although the more I forget, the less I’m really concerned/ So what I need is my people some shelter air and some food/ and what I want is my freedom, happiness and the truth/ what I love are the things I seem to keep them all close/ what I hate I usually find is what hurts me the most/ and what I find I need to balance this time that I spend/ gotta be my own person, why even pretend?/ so all my needs and my wants and all my love and my hate/ and all the hurt that I find, it be on me to create/ so come on!/

Chorus
