"Be Somebody" lyrics
(feat. Caskey)
Ain't nobody gave me shit, was broke as a dish
Family wasn't rich, we was immigrants
Pursuitin' like Will Smith, almost cut my wrist
Would lie to my bitch, embarrassed where I live
Then I signed my deal, was up out 10 bricks
Bought my mama crib, bought my pops some whips
Pandemic hit, label hopin' I die
Left me for dead, but I'm still alive
The family depend on me, drivin' with a tank on E
Gotta call for my big bro, start that label on your own
Born broke, ain't gon' die broke, that's some shit I'm gonna change
Born broke, ain't gon' die broke, that's some shit I'm gonna change
Born broke, ain't gon' die broke, that's some shit I'm gonna change
Born broke, ain't gon' die broke, that's some shit I'm gonna change
I did it by myself, don't need nobody
Fuck what they say, gon' be somebody
Did it by myself, don't need nobody
Fuck what they say, gon' be somebody
Broken wings, my pops left me in shambles
How he left the world, the reason why the suicide doors on the Lambo
Yeah, I strapped the Prada boots up like Rambo
I could walk on water with this flow if Jesus did it in a pair of sandals
I signed to the CEO that signed Lil' Wayne and put Drake and Nicki on the map
But he ain't do that for me and that's a shame (it's okay, though)
Before they put respect up on his name
He called me up once upon a time
And asked me if I beat up Charlamagne
Question, if Eminem signed Yelawolf
And he the one who gave me all the game
And told me all these other rappers lames
Then later told me we should do an album
Flew to Nashville, done in seven days
And gave me half the streaming revenue
Why would I stress buying me a chain?
(I did it by myself, don't need nobody)
See, the great ones recognize me as a prodigy
Overpaid and underrated, it's a cold dichotomy
(Fuck what they say, gon' be somebody)
But I did it by myself with no apologies
Man, they hate to see you when you up
But love it when you down, it's psychology
Born broke, ain't gon' die broke, that's some shit I'm gonna change
Born broke, ain't gon' die broke, that's some shit I'm gonna change
Born broke, ain't gon' die broke, that's some shit I'm gonna change
Born broke, ain't gon' die broke, that's some shit I'm gonna change
I did it by myself, don't need nobody
Fuck what they say, gon' be somebody
Did it by myself, don't need nobody
Fuck what they say, gon' be somebody
Did it by myself, don't need nobody
Fuck what they say, gon' be somebody
Family wasn't rich, we was immigrants
Pursuitin' like Will Smith, almost cut my wrist
Would lie to my bitch, embarrassed where I live
Then I signed my deal, was up out 10 bricks

Born broke, ain't gon' die broke, that's some shit I'm gonna change
Born broke, ain't gon' die broke, that's some shit I'm gonna change
Born broke, ain't gon' die broke, that's some shit I'm gonna change
Born broke, ain't gon' die broke, that's some shit I'm gonna change
I did it by myself, don't need nobody
