Fame

Fame - DMX

Uh-huh (yknow )

Arf

Uhh

Take it for what its worth my birth was a blessing

Sent to live and die on earth as a lesson

We each have a star all we have to do is find it

Once you do everyone who sees it will be blinded (what )

They'll tell you that you're bright and say you have a future

When you turn your back same catsll try to shoot ya

Niggaz ain't sh*t I can live on both sides of the fence

Forget what you do when you talk see what you really meant (aight )

Thats what I thought them niggaz was bluffin (uh)

They talk all day but say nothin (uh)

It gets so dark (what ) haze so intense

Since this first rain its like its rained ever since (what )

Never got paid for a rhyme but I flow (whoo)

Never got a plate on time but I grow (whoo)

Live your life stay on the line but I go (uhh)

Went from doin crime to bein kind cause I know

I'm gon live forever I'm never gon die

Only thing I fear is that I'm never gon fly

Carry my weight but I'm never gon cry

Sh*t I tell yall niggaz straight cause I'm never gon lie

What is about who I am that makes me unforgettable (hmm)

What it is about what I've done that makes it so incredible (uhh)

More money more problems -- well the fame was worse (uh-huh)

I reached out for love and what came back was thirst (what )

Blessed with the curse (uh) niggaz don't hear me

Niggaz don't hear me yall niggaz don't hear me (uh)

Whatd I just say ni**a ghead - you see that

You gots to feel me to catch what I'm sayin believe that (uhh )

But leave that alone (what )

We gon make a ni**a wanna be at your home (what )

Oh you kinda quiet with the heat at your dome (uhh )

If the dog got hes gonna bring back a bone

Cause we got the chrome (cmon )

This is what I live for or die for

I'm the ni**a with the high score you try for

What you niggaz wanna lie for it changes nothin

I'm true for cats yet some strangers bluffin

Now if I take what he gave me and i use it right (uh-huh)

In other words if I listen and use the light (uh-huh)

Then what I say will remain here after I'm gone

Still here on the strength of a song I live on (hmm)

No second-guessin on what I stood for I was good for

Stoppin niggaz from killin each other in the hood war (uhh)

Comin through showin love throwin up (uhh)

Them cats not throwin love you know whassup (what )

Dark man baby thats my name

And I gots to be the realest ni**a (uhh) up in this game

Cause ain't no shame they don't make em like this no more

Real to the core big heart but built for war

I stand for what I believe in

Even if what I believe in stops me from breathin

Relatives grievin but I ain't went nowhere

Listen to the song (cmon) I'm right there

I'm gon' live forever I'm never gon' die

Only thing I fear is that I'm never gon' fly

Carry my weight but I'm never gon' cry

Sh*t I tell y'all niggaz straight cause I'm never gon' lie

I'm gon' live forever I'm never gon' die

Only thing I fear is that I'm never gon' fly

Carry my weight but I'm never gon' cry

Sh*t I tell y'all niggaz straight cause I'm never gon' lie
