ls [atd] - 11. tryna b like u lyrics
i used to listen to your mixtape everyday, on my paper round
each and every word like bullets of knowledge in my mind
you gave my power just like nas gave you
i know you really wanted to match the level of his debut
and felt you let him down, but you got somebody tryna honour you
you laid the blueprint for me, sorta like jay+z
i could relate to the story
didn’t even want the glory
and though some say you made ’em sleep, you didn’t bore me
the father to my style, you ain’t gotta ask maury
destined to be born out of yours & lamar’s class
needn’t repeat what you did, as you did it for me
they already know you, i’m writing my own allegory
since they don’t know lew
they think it’s all fun and games like balamory
no, lew is the truth, don’t wanna loose the truth
lying in the pudding is the proof
and if i’m the true article, then this my point of view
this just a gratitude letter to you
i supposedly had all the brains in the world
yet contained no plan for what was next but your life seemed to mirror mine
that fear of uncertainty
where you didn’t make the team and wanted to be somebody
i saw the spark not only in you, but the stars on tv too
but nowadays, i don’t think it’s all it’s cracked up to be
though it could still be me
forever writing since my ink’s spiration goes beyond infinity
i just had an affinity for the things you i saw those people do
superstar, i tell myself that’s what you are
not from the ghetto, maybe
but i could be superhero for the kids and ones who need it and feel defeated and depleted like i was, that for me would be mission completed
as for me, personally, i had to strive to survive next to likes of iv
been behind since i was born five days later, but now feel free to be me
no longer emptiness inside
still consumed and occupied hollow tips from clips neating away at me, swallow me alive in dy where i reside and leave no residue behind
that’d drive me insane, writhing in pain
tired of living with my parents
how long before i can finally jump the hurdles
i had to move
could i be the star i think i am
i gotta prove to myself, ’cause i know i can
cuz once said to me on bebo, i was tryna be socially acceptable to people
and though he said it when we were beefing in secondary school
it was partially true
he had charisma, the popular pupil, girls liked him
but wouldn’t pay any mind to me so i outperformed in sport
and then got my hues
show you me in my year 11 photo got my basketball patch on my blazer
i was cut+throat, obsessed and set on being the goat
erasing the me who had no shine, quiet
all i waned was a beam an ultra lazer light
no ulterior motives, just a dream
that’s how it’s supposed to be
so they could see blue didn’t wanna be anybody but himself, just treated like you
but i’m me, and once i realized my talents and qualities that others secretly admire and desire too
decided to set myself free
i’m the lightning, check my scar
the dy harry potter
i used to wanna be like you
now i just stick to myself like glue
the number+one, not number+two
only one of me, i wanna be like lew
