歌词
作词 : Brian Maffie
作曲 : Brian Maffie,Jon Decatur,Adam Becherer,Tim Dorsey
It don’t stop when you reach the top,
‘cause it’s a long drop from a lonely spot
No one owns rap so get the bozack
I do whatever I want on my own track
You ain’t all that so put the mic back
I’ll keep droppin’ these hits so you know that
It don’t stop when you reach the top,
‘cause it’s a long drop from a lonely spot
Do you gotta go to jail or shot to be in Hip Hop?
Do some heavy drugs just to make it in Rock?
Be built like a jock just to make it in Pop?
Is it true you become famous only when your heart stops?
See perception is reality and reality bites,
I just want to do shows, performing under these lights.
I’m just trying to make it happen, I’ve been on Plan B for years,
Plan A was rappin’, but ‘yo,
Now here I am, 20-some-odd years watchin’ this game,
Switchin’ gears, being ran by kids who can’t drink beer
Yo, I laugh. I keep my foot on the gas knowin’ Im’a shine,
‘cause the rain never lasts.
Chorus
Some people in this life got some huge balls,
Cat’s think they so large that they don’t return your phone calls
Clown, I’ll see you at the top while lookin’ down,
This diamond in the rough cuts throats from all around
You see? You don’t know me, I’m that rap cat who gets charged listenin’ to Ani D,
Life, like you, I wanna make it through it,
One day you’ll see I’ma gonna run for office
‘cause seems anyone can do it.
Yo, haters hit my website daily,
Yo, it kills me “I heard from so-and-so, yo CL’s about to blow!”
C’mon man, you should know, I’m a go-getter,
The funny thing is, I bet you still think you’re better.
It don’t stop when you reach the top,
‘cause it’s a long drop from a lonely spot.
No one owns rap so get the bozack
I do whatever I want on my own track
It never stops
Chorus
It don’t stop when you reach the top,
‘cause it’s a long drop from a lonely spot.
No one owns rap so get the bozack
I do whatever I want on my own track
Do you gotta go to jail or shot to be in Hip Hop?
Do some heavy drugs just to make it in Rock?
Be built like a jock just to make it in Pop?
Is it true you become famous only when your heart stops?
See not everything is always what it seems,
I’m not tryin’ to be mean, if it’s your dream, be your dream,
or it’s just a dream.
Or wake up with it half over, many years older, world on your shoulders.
You see I told ya’ ‘cause the clock waits for no-one to get the job done
That’s what I tell my son, ‘cause he sees his father on the run.
I ain’t seventeen, you feel what I mean?
You gave up years ago, and I’m still on the scene.
