StarPower/Rondo Lyrics

Yeah they know my name but they don't know the story

Yeah they know my story but can't feel my pain

I put pen to page, it wasn't written for me

I put pen to page and hope it doesn't fade

Gotta pay homage to the ones that paved the way,

Look in the mirror everyday and promise to be great

Before I leave the crib, I pray

That I seize the day

And I don't hesitate

Cause I've seen better days

And I know tomorrow isn't promised,

Follow my own advice, be kind and stay solid

To be honest, I struggle to be honest

I can't tell real from fake

I can't tell love from hate

It all just feels the same

Anyways, gotta get food on the plate

Can't be scared to fail

Sun, snow, sleet, rain and hail

Whether you like or not, the world keeps spinning

History is written by the winners

Cut some slack or pick it up

People don't really a fuck

Better stay sharp or you'll get sucked

Don't be shook

Don't be dumb, press your luck

Don't go crazy over crumbs

There's room for everyone to eat

You've gotta be about your bread

I wanna show them pepper right now

I'm tired of saying soon you'll see

Bro said if they're not to speed, then cut them off including me

Cut your own eye if it causes sin, bible ting

Grew up in that environment

Poverty, drugs and violence in it

I trained myself to not be fazed

I'm tryna make my great escape

I know sunshine follows rain

But I'm not tryna sit and wait

Gotta make sure that my parents straight

Gotta get them up out the hood

That's one thing I understood

Since young, I've been the one

That's a fact you can't refute

I stand tall and speak my truth

People pree like pay-per-view

They tryna see what that paper do

Tune in quick and don't be late

I've got more music to face, then I've got plans to orchestrate

You wouldn't know star power if it hit you in the face

I got what it takes and if you don't get it yet that's a shame

Before I leave the crib I pray that I seize the day and don't hesitate

I got what it takes and if you don't get it yet that's a shame

Before I leave the crib I pray that I seize the day and don't

Yeah they know my name but they don't know the story

Yeah they know my story but can't feel my pain

I put pen to page, it wasn't written for me

I put pen to page and hope it doesn't fade
