knowmads – smile for the camera lyrics

sittin’ at the airport, waitin’ on a flight
thinkin’ to myself, don’t the future look bright
whatchu think about this? it ain’t really that tight
whatchu think about that? i don’t know, it’s a-ight
water on the wrist, buy somethin’ nice
d-mn yall cute, i don’t buy into the hype
smile for the camera, pain(t) on ice
the world is a bad b-tch you wanna be like
the world is a sad-boy sippin’ on sprite
livin’ in a trap house, flippin’ that white
don’t tell me that’s all you could do with your life
imma keep it real i don’t need you to like me

while we’re makin’ ends meet
had me payin’ off debts
i done been around the world
and i made it back west
talkin’ ‘bout your dreams boy
say it with yo chest
feelin’ so blessed on my way to success
don’t be afraid to go change your address
the worlds so big can’t just stay in the nest
keep your feet grounded, but what for?
with a bird’s eye view seein’ so much more
first you gotta make it past your front door
fall in love with the knowns and the one to explore
the feelin’ in my heart, im too young to ignore
come to terms with the fact that nothin’s for sure
so imma do me, keep writin’ songs nightly
in love with myself, i don’t need you to like me
crowd getting hype[hyphae?] this is my anthem
step into the limelight, smile for the camera

walkin’ off stage, just the other night
thinkin’ ‘bout the world man somethin’ ain’t right
tryna tell the kids that ain’t really what it’s like
life ain’t a fairytale stereotype
water on the wrist, buy somethin’ nice
d-mn yall cute, i don’t buy into the hype
smile for the camera, pain[t] on ice
the world is a bad b-tch you wanna be like
the world is a sad-boy sippin’ on sprite
livin’ in a trap house, flippin’ that white
don’t tell me that’s all you could do with your life
imma keep it real i don’t need you to like me

say what i feel for the ones just like me
see you on da ‘gram sayin’ “please just like me”
actin’ like hoes, wannabe hype beasts
yall do you, there ain’t nothin’ quite like me

what could i do to make ‘em notice me?
in a world don’t give a f-ck about poetry
phones change, now we interact socially
lotta people say they woke, now hopefully
i don’t wanna have to take drugs to go to sleep
shouldn’t be like this, not how it’s s’posed to be
think smaller, make a dollar, buy groceries
say dat “life ain’t fair, so pray to rosary”
think men wrote the books, guess i’m blasphemous
that’s just how my brain works, i didn’t ask for this
and if i ever met god i would ask him this
“was it part of your plan to make us capitalists?”
while we struggle every day to make a b-st-rd rich
i think the bible need to add a couple asterisks
‘cause we destroying the planet, and baby that’s the risk
so when i smile hope the camera could snap to this

[smile don’t talk, paint you in spite.]
stick to the facts, they was never that tight
forget about your clicks[cliques?] and the media lights
and all that other shit you don’t need in your life
water on the wrist, buy somethin’ nice
d-mn yall cute, i don’t buy into the hype
smile for the camera, pain(t) on ice
the world is a bad b-tch you wanna be like
the world is a sad-boy sippin’ on sprite
livin’ in a trap house, flippin’ that white
don’t tell me that’s all you could do with your life
imma keep it real i don’t need you to like me

say what i feel for the ones just like me
see you on da ‘gram sayin’ “please just like me”
actin’ like hoes, wannabe hype beasts
yall do you, there ain’t nothin’ quite like me
(no)
