chris cave - no need to lyrics

[intro:]
my words are well chosen and they carry weight
but it’s oh so easy to get carried away (carried away)

[verse 1:]
my so called friends just call ‘cause they saw me in the fader
for them it’s voicemail or ‘sorry call me later’
it’s about d-mn time y’all start calling me greater
i’m so d-mn fine that i don’t need no debater
i’m a gang starr i got a full clip in my magazine
i’m a pop star ain’t you seen the magazine i’m in?
i’m so keen ‘cause i’m the latest in the scene
from what i’ve seen
i feel like i’m the greatest in the scene

i’m the emperor, the master, even the king
not married to the game
but f-ck waiting till after the ring
your sh-t is temporal, control’s left and right wing
just took a sit in the throne, and y’all pretend it’s a thing

whole pack of wolves claiming that they got an anderson flow
your eager i know
y’all lost me sentences ago

well, i don’t get tired
and i don’t need no sleep
so y’all please retire and let the lying dogs sleep

[interlude:]
‘cause mainly sleeping dogs lie
woke up from a dream, you should give it try
it was nice to meet you
but your plans were see through
then i realized that there’s no need to

[chorus 1:]
i don’t need no money
don’t need no fame
can’t understand why
y’all still playing this game

i don’t need no money
and really i don’t need no fame
that’s why i don’t understand why
y’all still playing this game

[verse 2:]
so i keep on searching’ but searching for what?
meaning and purpose it don’t mean a lot
when me on the surface ain’t the maximum
inside is deeper, go on ask a friend
and then ask him again just to get a clear view
he’ll tell you what i’m about unrelated to you
turns out you don’t know what the f-ck i’ve been through
then the way you relate says a lot about you

and that’s how i’ma separate the wheat from the chaff
write down all my circles, then split ’em in half
all the fake friends, spend my time on ’em less
in turn that will allow me to cherish the rest
i will finish the test then i’ma perish in jest

people think i’m kidding, but i’ma laugh last
ain’t no half -ss achievements
rapid success, don’t need it
for the rest who don’t see it

lay the egg and just bread it
all these external validations
fame, status, proliferation, you don’t need it
how come you don’t see it?

‘cause people will perceive you however they want to
so why bother trying to influence and control that?

[chorus 2:]
i don’t need no money
and i don’t need no fame
think i understand why
y’all still playing’ this game

yet i don’t think it’s funny
how y’all became
so i’ll just do me
while the rest is the same
