Got Something To Prove Lyrics

Ladies and gentlemen

Please give a warm welcome for, The One and Only

I saw something just last weekend

This shit made me sick

Made my knees straight weak, man

I saw a wild child throwing a fit

Picking fights because they think

That they got something to prove

And they're shameless

Far from blameless

They're victims of a system that just won't save them

A system out of place and out of date

With all these kids who can't relate

Because they think that they got something to prove

And where do you think they learned it

Stranger danger in the screen

A thousand different voices saying this is what you need

Predatory promises

For people lacking confidence

Pretending to be prophets while they're selling you the providence

WHY?!

Because it's too damn easy

Kids are vulnerable, call it lemon squeezy

Without role models, man life's a maze

With every wrong turn promising the way, but

They don't care, they ain't there

They ain't gonna have your back

Bitch they wont answer your prayer

And when the times comes, and they turn your lights off

Because you couldn't pay the bills, man you know who's gonna care

The people that you feel with, the ones you're real with

The ones who got your back when you got shit to deal with

Not the ones who play games, using you to their advantage

Socio-pathetic fame from people that they damage

You wanna prove yourself? Bitch, go get a job

Make something of your life, clout is just a facade

Look inside yourself to earn your strength, you can't demand it

The only one you got to prove what you got, is you
