Be Somebody Lyrics by KING SOL

Be Somebody

2016

[Chorus: June B]
All my life I been
Tryna make it no fakin' and I always had haters tell me that I wouldn't ever win, no
But I did it yeah I did it tell my mama imma be somebody, yeah, eh
Tell my mama imma be somebody (tell my mama)
Ooh-ooh
Now I'm here, can't nobody tell me nothing no (nothing)

[Verse 1: KING SOL]
Can’t nobody tell me nothing, I was on the bottom floor and now I’m up to something
I started quickly and I saw how all these things were coming
All I want is an identity it’s that or nothing

I had to stop and check myself as I would go reflect
Do they like me for my music or is it respect?
Or do they really hate the music how could I neglect?
They think I might get famous then someday we’ll reconnect

But I took it and ignored all of my worries
I really understand that I am not part of the story
They told me KING SOL can I be witnessing the glory?
But I feel lost and if I’m Nemo that means you’re Dory

And since I was a kid I always thought that it was funny
That I had no identity, no character to study
I thought my journey would get better that’s why it was muddy
Cause all I really want inside is just to be somebody, yeah

[Chorus]

[Verse 2: KING SOL]
But really on the low, I’m struggling I think that I might not make it alone
My friends are like remember this and look how much you’ve grown
I actually like your music now I put it on my phone

And check it out I like your message look at what you’ve shown
You know your lyrics come to life when they put them in stone
I feel the words I feel the meaning right down to the bone
And when they wanna chill I say I'll just be on my own

And now I'm stuck questioning everything that I said cause I'm a fool
The only thing I ever wanted was to feel that I was cool
But now I’m doing something stupid, I could tear away the scars
Or maybe they don't really like me they just like my bars

Or maybe I should go, who cares about their motivation?
I’d prefer some messages instead of sports notifications
I been on the come up but I paid a fee
God look at me, I just need somebody to be

[Chorus]
