Fame Drifter Lyrics by T. Karras

2018

[Intro]
Yeah, I'm like John Wayne with the looks and sounds
Drifting the world until I find a place to settle down
But I don't know how to settle down, so I doomed to drift this world forever
Call me the fame drifter
[Verse 1]
I'm a self-destructive egotistical diva
I know nothing but fame, that's why I need the...
Affection and love that comes from other people
I take it like a drug and boy it's lethal
I get immersed in it all, become Hollywood famous
Lose track of myself and then I become brainless
Desire more and more until they send me to exile
And they make me out to look like someone who's vile
I admit it, I had second chances; I blew it
How the fuck does somebody even do shit?
To make the situation worse, more savage than before
And this was a time you should of never declared war
I'm a stupid moron playing the role of a cowboy
My mission, it's simple... Sit back and enjoy...
I do it over, and over, and over again
I have to wonder why I don't have many friends...
[Chorus]
Yeah I'm just a drifter...
A old-fashioned fame drifter...
I'm just a drifter...
Simple. Fame. Drifter
[Verse 2]
My parents screwed up, they thought it was cool
For a guy with autism to not attend middle school
I could of used those social skills... what the fuck?
Now the only thing I can rely on is blind luck
I've never learned the very definition of real
I'm awkward and desperate, that's how I feel
I get emotional over a thing called the internet
Cause that's the only thing I'm able to get
For social interaction of any kind...
But the social interaction makes me lose my mind
I can't help but to obsess and make mistakes
I used 9 lives and I don't know how much I can take
Everything about my life, they already know...
And there's only so many places that I can go
Before I reach the end... and I already know what's next
Take a gun to my head, pull the chamber till it clicks...
[Chorus]
Yeah I'm just a drifter...
A old-fashioned fame drifter...
I'm just a drifter...
Simple. Fame. Drifter
[Verse 3]
My number was 182, but I was too cocky
I became the wave, thought no one could stop me
I used my real name, thought they'd get to know me...
But all I got was a bunch of "blow me's"
I tried to hang with the nerds, I guess I wasn't nerdy
I tried to hang with the geeks, I guess that wasn't for me
I tried to become an edgy rapper, they all flipped the birdy
I was never more than a gimmick... and that just hurt me
I'm just another person looking for purpose in life
I'm always stuck in my four wall bedroom day and night
I don't enjoy this, you think my situation is right
I ain't laughing, I wish I could deal with the plight
But I'm doomed to seek fame that's never permanent
Cause I'm obsessive, needy and did I say autistic?
If only I could break the cycle and just... move on
Then all my fears and worry would just poof and be gone
[Chorus]
Yeah I'm just a drifter...
A old-fashioned fame drifter...
I'm just a drifter...
Simple. Fame. Drifter
Yeah I'm just a drifter...
A old-fashioned fame drifter...
I'm just a drifter...
Simple. Fame. Drifter
