Something 2 Believe

It’s a long way down
It’s a long way down

I used to give them reason to get hype for
Now they look at me like I’m an eye sore
Knowing that they haven’t seen what I saw
They’ve written me off as if I’ve lost
Curtains are closed, they took the lights off
Even if you take away my light source
Haters can’t take away my life force
Watch my stock price soar
Then they gon’ want me to write for’em
Cause I got the game and the high score
Ain’t talking Pac-Man or Galaga
None of you dudes are of my caliber
Not to be confused with Soul Calibur
Or Street Fighter II : New Challengers
None of you dudes are on my playing field
I can care less how you haters feel

Chorus:
I got to give’em something to believe in (8x)

Everyday that I wake I face fear
Greeted by reflection and gray hair
Whether its age or stress
I deserve a place here cause I paid my debt (It’s a long way down)
They say I’m not passionate
You don’t even know what my past has been (It’s a long way down)
Death, car crashes, and accidents
The fact that I’m here is miraculous
Next time you question my heart, b (in your heart)
Put your hand on my chest and feel my heartbeat (in your heart)
I still see my name on the marquee
I’m a take off like the Starfleet (It’s a long way down)
Even if you don’t see my vision clear
My head’s in the cloud, and I’m still an heir (It’s a long way down)
Inherited the stress of my village peers
So to pay it off, I’m a be a billionaire

I got to give’em something to believe in (8x)

I had friends that dreamt of rap stardom
They traded their dreams for mag jargon
Whether or not they admit it
I’ve done everything that they didn’t
Followed my dreams I’m still in it
While they watch from a distance as critics
Live vicariously through me
Write articles, I’m a choose new beats
It’s not that they settled for less
It’s the opposite, I expected the best
I’ll continue the profession you left
And in my interviews, I’m a rep you to death
Hope you don’t take this offensively
Even if you did, what it says to me
We were never friends but enemies
Now you know the truth and I’ve said my piece

I got to give’em something to believe in (8x)
