Chasing Fame歌词

作曲 : Steven D Cooper
Told my momma I wuold pay the bills,one day
Told my family I'd make it real,one way
Now we're here they ask me how it feels,okay
But this reality it isn't real,no way
Cause with this hand that you are given
You're made to be a victim
you're changed to be a version of yourself that is envisioned
Man they play you like a show prop
What happens when the show stops
I swear I'm sick of hip-hop
Sometimes I wanna kick rocks
Cause I've been on the road since I was just under twenty
Sleeping on air mattresses and making no money
I've just been doing it for love
And hoping it would come back
But all I get is criticism cause I'm different in rap
And I know they don't understand me
They try to understand me
Not knowing this is all I have
I live without a plan B
It's more than just a track
But they don't give a crap
Gave my life to this music tell me what if give me back
I spent all my life chasing fame
All my nights turn to days
I feel like I've been wasting away
And I still can't find my way
I just spent all my life chasing fame
All my nights turn to days
I feel like I've been wasting away
And I still can't find my way
Keep chasing fame...
All I wanted was to show the world that they could become
Anything they ever dreamed of if they lifted a thumb
If they lifted a hand,if they got up and ran
If they came up with a plan
But maybe It's just a fantasy
See I'm losing my faith
been doing it too long running in the same place
Hoping for a breakthrough
But sadly it don't take two
It take million to really push it through the ceiling
And I don't have it
I'm rapping broke as a joke
And I'm just hoping someone out there
Here's the words that I've spoke
And maybe they'll appreciate this little glimmer of hope
And be inspired to go further than I could ever go
And yo,need reminded why I try it
Cause now I'm in my thirties
And it's hard to justify it
Gets harder to deny it
All my friends are getting silent
Canse they know the time is ticking if it's there you better find it
Spent all my life chasing fame
All my nights turn to days
I feel like I've been wasting away
And I still can't find my way
I just spent all my life chasing fame
All my nights turn to days
I feel like I've been wasting away
And I still can't find my way
Keep chasing fame...
They told me fame was fleeting
But I ignored the meaning
Cause I'd turn on the TV close my eyes and I could see me
Dreamed about it every day
I always pictured going
Cause I came from very little
And there wasn't much for showing
But now that I look back
I'd take a different path
I'd learn to be appreciative of what I've always had
Cause there's a chance I'll never see these dreams unfold
So the journey alone
Should be worth it's weight in gold that is
If you choose the right road
All my life chasing fame
All my nights turn to days
I feel like I've been wasting away
And I still can't find my way
I just spent all my life chasing fame
All my nights turn to days
I feel like I've been wasting away
And I still can't find my way
Keep chasing fame...
