rumor – broke and famous lyrics
verse 1
i was with a fellow musician the other day, name withheld
we were trying to eat, walked into the restaurant of this hotel
a few patrons recognized us. we started going through the pricelist
the looks on our faces: priceless. we didn’t need no one to advise us
i faked a phone call and walked out
he caught the rouse; he followed suit
we went outside and laughed out loud
next stop was at my house
hook
they see me on t.v they say i be celeb
it’s funny man no money man no ref i dey use my legs
and charlie trust me i still dey wey troski
small small e go be i will be where i must be (2x)
[lifestyle of the broke and a little famous]
[sometimes i have dreams of chilling in vegas]
verse 2
look in my eyes i’m sleep deprived i stay up all night and dream
imagination helps escape reality and as it seems
from a.m to p.m put my frustrations on the pen
cos a brother still don’t even own a pot to pee in
i’m starting to feel the pressure
i swore to never say “yes sir” to any boss in any office
a nine to five could be a real stressor
so i’m working twice as hard to make it and maybe then
i wouldn’t have to go back on my words like arabians
i know it may be grim
your light just may be dim
turn that sad face upside down
light your life up with a smile
you see the old folk stay hopeful
you can tell it by the hymns they hum
i’m in the stu cooking som’in cos sam cooke said “change gone come”
[repeat hook]
verse 3
next week i got a show; put my homey on the phone
tell am say i dey need some clothes
i dey come do la-borrow
i’m on stage looking like a boss
only thing i own my drawers
meanwhile a fan wondering how much my wardrobe cost
appreciate you putting me on that pedastal but truly
i’m but a man with a gift and usually i rock no jewelry
i’d much rather rock the stage and work the crowd into fury
leave’em debating my sentences like a jury
[hook]
