The Incomparable Shakespeare - Something 2 Believe lyrics

It's a long way down It's a long way down I used to give them reason to get hype for Now they look at me like I'm an eye sore Knowing that they haven't seen what I saw They've written me off as if I've lost Curtains are closed, they took the lights off Even if you take away my light source Haters can't take away my life force Watch my stock price soar Then they gon' want me to write for'em Cause I got the game and the high score Ain't talking Pac-Man or Galaga None of you dudes are of my caliber Not to be confused with Soul Calibur Or Street Fighter II : New Challengers None of you dudes are on my playing field I can care less how you haters feel Chorus: I got to give'em something to believe in (8x) Everyday that I wake I face fear Greeted by reflection and gray hair Whether its age or stress I deserve a place here cause I paid my debt (It's a long way down) They say I'm not pa**ionate You don't even know what my past has been (It's a long way down) d**h, car crashes, and accidents The fact that I'm here is miraculous Next time you question my heart, b (in your heart) Put your hand on my chest and feel my heartbeat (in your heart) I still see my name on the marquee I'm a take off like the Starfleet (It's a long way down) Even if you don't see my vision clear My head's in the cloud, and I'm still an heir (It's a long way down) Inherited the stress of my village peers So to pay it off, I'm a be a billionaire I got to give'em something to believe in (8x) I had friends that dreamt of rap stardom They traded their dreams for mag jargon Whether or not they admit it I've done everything that they didn't Followed my dreams I'm still in it While they watch from a distance as critics Live vicariously through me Write articles, I'm a choose new beats It's not that they settled for less It's the opposite, I expected the best I'll continue the profession you left And in my interviews, I'm a rep you to d**h Hope you don't take this offensively Even if you did, what it says to me We were never friends but enemies Now you know the truth and I've said my piece I got to give'em something to believe in (8x)
