Testo Superstar - Edit - Cypress Hill
Testo della canzone Superstar - Edit (Cypress Hill), tratta dall'album (Rap) Superstar
A lots of, ah, sharks out there, tryna take a bite of something
What's hot
Lot of chameleons out there, tryna change up
Anytime somethin' new comes along, everybody wants a bite
Don't happen overnight
So you wanna be a rap superstar and live large
A big house, five cars, you're in charge
Comin' up in the world, don't trust nobody
Gotta look over your shoulder constantly
I remember the days when I was a young kid growin' up
Lookin' in the mirror dreamin' about blowin' up
To rock crowds, make money, chill wit' the honeys
Sign autographs and whatever the people want from me
-s funny, how impossible dreams manifest
In the games that be comin' with it
Nevertheless you gotta go for the gusto
But you don't know about the blood sweat and tears
And losin' some of your peers and losin' some of yourself to the years past gone by
Hopefully you don't manifest for the wrong guy
Egomaniac in the brainiac, don't know how to act
-s deep, 48 tracks, studio gangsta mack
Sign a deal, Emcees wanna make a mill
But never will, 'til he crosses over still feelin' no hate
But fantasies come wit' these just to sacrifice the taste of makin' cheese
You wanna be a rap superstar in the biz
And take - from people who don't know what it is
I wish it was all fun and games but the price of fame is high
And some can't pay to play, trapped in what you rappin' about
Tell me what happened when you lost clout
The rout you took started collapsing
No fans, no fame, no respect, no change
No women and everybody -s on your name
So you wanna be a rap superstar and live large
A big house, five cars, you're in charge
Comin' up in the world, don't trust nobody
Gotta look over your shoulder constantly
People see rock stars, youna what I'm saying?
But you still, tryna get out more like, like everybody else
You know? It's a fun job, but it's still a job, you know
Save your money man, save your money too
Being single don't last very long, youna what I'm saying?
I mean, you're lucky in this game too
There's gon' be another cat comin' out
Lookin' like me, soundin' like me, next year I know this
They'll be a flipside, do whatchu you do
Somebody'll try to spin off like some serious
You ever have big dreams of makin' big cream?
Big shot, heavy hitter on the mainstream
You wanna look trendy in the Bentley
Be a snob and never act friendly
You wanna have big fame, let me explain
What happened to these stars and their big brains
First they get played like all damn day
Long as you sell everything will be okay
Then you get dissed by the media and fans
Things never stay the same way they began
I heard that some never give full to the fullest
That's while fools end up dinning on the bullet
Think everything's fine in the big time
See me in my lex' with the chrome raised high
So you wanna roll far and live large?
It ain't all that goes with bein' a rock star
So you wanna be a rap superstar and live large
A big house, five cars, you're in charge
Comin' up in the world, don't trust nobody
Gotta look over your shoulder constantly
To be a rap superstar and live large
A big house, five cars, you're in charge
Comin' up in the world, don't trust nobody
Gotta look over your shoulder constantly
My own son don't know me, I'm chillin' in a hotel room lonely
But I thank God I'm wit' my homies but sometimes
I wish I was back home but only no radio or videos
'Cause they show me no love
The phony gotta hit the road slowly
So the record gets pushed by Sony
I'm in the middle like monie and the press say that
My own people disowned me
And the best way back is to keep your head straight
Never inflate the cranium
Your crew worried about them honeys at the palladium
Who just wanna cling on swing on and so on and go on and fall off
The -s fall off to the next rap superstar
Wit' no shame give him a year and they'll be right out the game
The same as the last one who came before him
Gained fame started gettin' ignored
I warned him, assured him this ain't easy take it from Weezy
Sleazy people wanna be cheesy, they talkin' lethal (assassin, assassin)
So you wanna be a rap superstar and live large
A big house, five cars, you're in charge
Comin' up in the world, don't trust nobody
Gotta look over your shoulder constantly
To be a rap superstar and live large
A big house, five cars, you're in charge
Comin' up in the world, don't trust nobody
Gotta look over your shoulder constantly
