You never say that I
can’t do what I want to
I just got to believe it
and it will be
I think that’s crazy
it’s gotta take
more to be adored
like you’re legitimate
the crude and shallow
act like such royalty
’cause all I hear them say is
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah
look at me, I’ve got self-esteem
I’m sick of all the fakin’
that it takes to make it big
’cause all I hear them say is
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah
look at me, I belong on a widescreen
forget the talent
it’s so insignificant
What’s so wrong with
wantin’ to sing a song ’bout my
inner frustrations?
Maybe you could identify…
We’re not perfect
so why should we pretend?
I just want to end
your need for me to be ostentatious
You just want somebody with attitude
a strong persona you’d
like to aspire to
and I can understand that
but it’s not germane
forget the art
you just want an accessory
I believe ego-trippin’ don’t flatter you
Every time I see them strut it
something in me’s gotta shut it
down, down, down
’cause all I hear them say is
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah
look at me, I’ve got self-esteem
I’m sick of all the fakin’
that it takes to make it big
’cause all I hear them say is
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah
look at me, I belong on a widescreen
forget the talent
it’s so insignificant
I look around
all I see is unchecked vanity
and a desperate need to believe
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah
look at me, I’ve got self-esteem
I’m sick of all the fakin’
that it takes to make it big
’cause all I hear them say is
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah
look at me, I belong on a widescreen
forget the talent
it’s so insignificant
