Be Yourself

(альбом: The Great Expanse - 2019)

Feeling good, in fact, I'm feeling mighty fine
Another year, another grind, another smile line
Dead star type of light shine, why you taking up my time
If you ain't of a like mind?
Forget what you and who say
It's the future that moves my mood today
I could be toothless and grey, lose my toupee
And still feel bullet-proof like Luke Cage
I've never been concerned with a beef
Just learning to be the best version of me
They say that we can learn from defeat
Why are they looking for adversity permanently?
They're missing the mark, still in rut
Need a little bit of dip in their strut, living it up
The enlightening feeling of not giving a fuck
While they're putting me down I've been picking it up so

Don't let no one tell you who you are, be yourself
Don't let no one tell you who you are, be yourself
'Cause they fill you with rage
You're like 'Why are you breaking my heart?'
It's like they build you to break you
Just wanted to take you apart-part-part

Looking good, looking better than I ever have
Feeling good, feeling that 'til I remember that
I have to interact with the world, game on
Put my human face on like Patrick Bateman
My game face, same face that my mum kiss
So, you don't love this, it don't mean bupkis
White boy rapper, frat boy man
He probably have a drug problem like a grown child actor
Fat boy, have to get in those reps, get an
App boy have to get in those steps
Looking long in the tooth but the truth is
I'm strong and I'm stronger than you in the booth kid, c'mon
I'm so pretty, make 'em all stare at me
Blow my own horn, call me Ron Jeremey
How I take these hits, man I'm convinced
I deserve a purple heart like Prince, my god

Don't let no one tell you who you are, be yourself
Don't let no one tell you who you are, be yourself
'Cause they fill you with rage
You're like 'Why are you breaking my heart?'
It's like they build you to break you
Just wanted to take you apart-part-part

Don't let no one tell you who you are, be yourself
Don't let no one tell you who you are, be yourself
'Cause they fill you with rage
You're like 'Why are you breaking my heart?'
It's like they build you to break you
Just wanted to take you apart-part-part

You know you scratch
You know you scratch
You know you scratch
You know you scratch
Be yourself
