1996

[Chorus]
She said I'll never be someone
She said I'll never be someone
She said I'll never be someone
I'll never make it
To take my dreams, and never chase 'em
I'm going nowhere, and no one cares
I'm sure she'll want me when I'm a millionaire

[Verse 1]
Now hop up in the game like a fat kid did a cannonball
My music has evolved, the rest of y'all are still neanderthals
Fake ass people probably chilling out with Santa Clause
Me, I'm yelling Mazel Tov: L'Chaim!
It's just the kinda guy I am, and I'm not even lying
I'm a lion, you a zebra, I am faster than a cheetah
I'm the king of the jungle
Just wanna go rumble
I'm taking my tumbles, but I never fumble
I always stay humble
I block out the model like I got a muzzle
The bread and the butter
What's up?
I'm ballin'
Following my callin'
I'll do it to the death of me, and maybe in my coffin
I'm a college kid making music, getting drunk
Major Lazer eyes like Darth Vader's light sabers
Writing papers, so music's a lifesaver
Fuck a hater, evaporate 'em to a vapor like "see you later, alligator" I'm a chaser of my dreams
Dreaming with my eyes open 'til everyone believes
God bless me, I didn't even have to sneeze

[Chorus]
She said I'll never be someone
She said I'll never be someone
She said I'll never be someone
I'll never make it
To take my dreams, and never chase 'em
I'm going nowhere, and no one cares
I'm sure she'll want me when I'm a millionaire

[Verse 2]
Taking the dark, turning it light
Taking my wrongs, and making 'em right
Making a fight, making my name go down in history
Not in the flames
Goddamn it man, I love this life, and I am not ashamed
And I am working long nights, I think it's making me insane
Praying that it all pays off, gets me to where I want to go
Like Progressive insurance, you know I always got Flo
I've been writing hits and signing tits since I exist in '96
And I resist to be a bitch and flee and quit when I get pissed
I won't dismiss 'cause I insist on being bliss, on doing this
And making music for the kids who were told they won't be shit
'Cause I was there, but now I'm here
To those people, I made it clear
They used to tell me to quit and now they're bumping me up in their ears
Used to tell me I ain't shit, and now they wanna follow
Used to say I couldn't spit, and now the girls just wanna swallow
Man, I'm killing it, I got the damn sauce like soy
Small town in Virginia to worldwide, boy

[Chorus]
She said I'll never be someone
She said I'll never be someone
She said I'll never be someone
I'll never make it
To take my dreams, and never chase 'em
I'm going nowhere, and no one cares
I'm sure she'll want me when I'm a millionaire
