Fame // Joe McCreary

Fame You wanna be famous Till it comes and breaks ya ankles Then you say you can take it But we both know you’re faking Like a chicken with its head cut off No you ain’t nowhere near a big top dawg You ain’t even got your own house You thinking that your sound Can come on around And knock me on the ground And leave ya thinking that ya found Your ticket to the crown But you’re only gonna drown In the waves of the fame coming to beat you down Put the fame on a stick Like a carrot to a pig Then lead you to your end Straight off a cliff I wonder how ya missed Cause there still ain’t a hit Unlike Dixon to a walker head You still doin the walking dead Boy you thinking that you’re slick Boy you ain’t even legit Boy you’re thinking that you’re clean But you told me your whole scheme You ain’t got any leverage Boy you got unloaded weapons There ain’t a thing you can sell That’s good for show and tell Every shot is a fail Boy you looking so dang pale Who did ya think you were messing with A bunch of folks wanna raid your place Nah me and you we ain’t the same There ain’t a thing in the game That could bring us to a common page Unless ya stop acting that way I know you ain’t supposed to change But when you only crave the fame Boy you better fix your brain Cause you’re driving me insane I’m just your average joe And you’re an average hoe And I think you orta know That you don’t wanna go! I’m feeling pissed off Cause I drank my last coke And you’re thinking you’re on top But you’re nothing but a joke Chasing fame Does a thang That fries your brain And brings you pain And causes change If you’re insane Chasing fame Does a thang That fries your brain And brings you pain And causes change If you’re insane Chase the fame if ya dare Don’t blame me it’s your idear If it haunts ya rips ya heart out all your problem try and solve it I tried to say it Don’t get famous To skip the pain Avoid the fame
