Famous Famous

Oowee backwards is weeoo weeoo
And weeoo weeoo the sound of a cop car
She was used to those
Being on back roads
Hot boxing with dope boys
Singing daydreaming of being a pop star
Never knew bout toasting champagne
Just a toaster and pop tarts
Lotta shoulda woulda dialog
And coulda got far
Tired of strangers laying her down
In these hotels making her rounds
To feel wanted for 15 minutes
Then it's back to breaking down
Phone full of cell phone numbers
But none of em friends
Closest connection she had was that makeup bag
To help her blend in
That mascara was the mask that didn't scare away men
16 but you can get away 21 you getting in
Made enough money last run
To get that one way ticket to Cali
Survival skills kicked in
Gettin back home she ain't worried about it
Just find a nearest starbucks to charge that cell phone up
She been in worst situations so she didn't feel stuck
Headphones in hand
Duffle bag on the floor
That's when a man walks up
Head down she noticed his shoes first
He said you not from around here huh?
Her head high enough to make eye contact now
He stood there smiling wit his hand out
Said I wouldn't mind showin you around town
She looked at her bag then looked around
Looked back at her bag then looked back around
Gimme one second she said
Approaching the bathroom
Contemplating turning the offer down
Put her duffle bag on the bathroom floor
Starting fixing her hair
Took a deep breath and then said wow
What's the worst that can happen
A kidnapping won't be the first time it happened
Quartz crystal in her jeans for protective magic
A mans attention was essential
Cuz she didn't know her daddy
Walked out the bathroom
She said I'm ready
He said here lemme grab dis
Kind gesture she ain't second guess it
She just started laughing
He said today I'm your tour guide
Anything you want to happen can happen
And by the way my name is
I got lots of connections wit people in high places
So if you want it just name it
I always wanted to be a
She stopped and paused
He said say it
She said I always wanted to be famous
He said how famous
You know famous
Like famous like pop star singers
Wit background singers
He said that's funny
I figured you was chasing a dream
She said I dreamed of being in the studio
Making a single everyone can sing
He said I know exactly where you need to be
He said before we stop there
You need something to eat
Soul food Thai food Chinese
She said I'm straight
How bout we just go to the studio first
And order something online when it's bout that time
Sounds great he replied
I introduced myself
But I didn't tell you that
I was a music producer on the side
She looked at him smiled and said that's live
Watch imma get in the studio and be like Beyonce all night
He nodded his head laughed and agreed and said
One song can change yo life
Arrived at the studio she humming something in her head
He said I like it
Put on a slow beat he said you like this vibe
She said I like that
Here's a pen and pad he said I'll be right back
Happy to be there she ain't look back once
15 minutes had passed
Another 5 minutes later
2 new faces walked in
She said hi my name is
I'm just waiting on
To come back
No reply one locked the door
One turned off the lights
One said I can make you famous
One said this the way to get there
The music got louder the screams got lower
One said all the really famous people been here
If dis is what they go thru I don't want it
If dis is what they gotta do I don't want it
I rather have nothin then be nothin
I rather have nothin then be nothin
I rather have nothin then be nothin
I rather have nothin then be nothin
Silence is deadly
Deadly
Silence is deadly
Deadly
If I don't get to know my soul
Look at me
Forget it
I won't be victim of things I can control
Like my soul
Like my soul
Like my soul
My soul
