Somebody Lyrics

Just got home from work, waiting on this text from my ex

So I figure while I wait I'll do something to chase a check

I get bags for my Son lowkey, I don't flex

And if I ain't really feeling it, I ain't breaking my neck, I'm on the move

Rapping for this rent, money it's past due

But if I give a little extra, maybe they won't evict me

Strictly about my business, I don't play with y'all children

And I don't play bout my son, take care of him, I be chilling

I know in the world, it's easy to feel alone

Easy to feel resent, block it out, pick up the phone

Disassociate, never feel your thoughts

Never really contemplate priority

And that's why we all scared of the future

Cause if tomorrow you slip up & somebody shoot ya

There's lots of shit that's left unfinished and that don't really suit ya

So we give it all we got, cause we ain't got a lot

And that's why they say it's nothing more dangerous than a man with nothing to lose

You see em on the news, rotten and schemin, but I just stay in my zone

I be plottin and dreamin, I be, in the stu, by myself, all day

Never take a day off till the day I get pay

And after that I'm on the road, I be making my way

So how could I give a fuck what you say

I'm just trying to be somebody that all my people think of fondly

Ain't gotta be loved by everybody

But I wanna be somebody's somebody

Yeah

I know y'all felt that

I never had nothing except for the fam

I never had nothing except for my mom and dad

And we ain't never had nothing but the money in our hands

So yes we brash, when we counting these bands

We came from minivans

We came from sugar cubes & top

Ramen so, I don't care about the hate

You can't relate

You ain't been on my timing

You ain't been on my grind

You ain't had to walk my line

You ain't had to clock in at my job

You ain't only had a day to see your kid

Then you gotta take off no spaceship

You ain't had to look your kid in his face when you got a dip

Fuck

God damn, that's real shit

And if I'm being real, shit be harder than steel

I try my hardest, life without my son is taking my will

But I can't throw in the towel

I got too much to gain

I know it's value waiting for me at the end of the pain

Even if that's just knowledge, because the knowledge is power

And I feel my time is coming so I cannot waste a hour

Yeah, I got too much to learn

And I got too much to earn

So I punch in on a beat

And roll me two I can burn

I be up till one

And then I get the job done

And then I go to bed so I can get to work for my son in the morning

Hopefully next year I'll be performing

Hopefully next year I'll be somewhere near Portland

Be there whenever my prince need me

He ain't gotta wonder where I'm at when he wanna see me

I just wanna be somebody

I just wanna be somebody

I just wanna be somebody

It's like I've been a few somebody's body but I'm trying to be somebody's somebody

You feel me

I just wanna be somebody's somebody

You know?
