Do You Have The Stamina
(专辑: B.o.B Vs. Bobby Ray - 2009)
[Intro: sample from Kanye West's "Pinocchio Story"] "Do you really have the
stamina? For everybody that sees you that say, 'Where's my camera?' For everybody that sees you, to say sign a
autograph For everybody that sees you cry, and say you oughta laugh You oughta laugh!" [Chorus: Kanye West sample (B.o.B)] "Do you really have the
stamina?" (Do you have the
stamina) "For everybody that sees you that say, 'Where's my camera?'" (Where's my camera) "For everybody that sees you, to say sign a
autograph" (Sign an autograph) "For everybody that sees you cry, and say you oughta laugh" (You oughta laugh) "You oughta laugh!" [Verse 1: B.o.B.] Well, posing for pictures and living on a
poster The
hardest thing for me is to keep my compsure I
ain't always happy, and I
ain't always sad But when the
spotlight is on, you have to handle the
task And even the
people who swear they love so bad A
go and put your dirty laundry on the
cover of mags Then everyone sees it and gets a
good laugh And now your whole persona is just a
thing of the
past Now, when people see they ignore all the
pain They only think about the
rumors and mistakes you made So that's why I
don't read all the
comments on the
blogs Everybody's a
fan if you boo or applaud Now give me your energy, even if you're my enemy Or trying to be friends with me, aggressively or timidly Put my next to anyone in this industry You still will never find someone that's in my league [Chorus] [Verse 2: B.o.B.] Celebrity this, celeberity that Reality TV fiends addicted like crack and smack My business is rap, and my business is politicing with that And then my business is put on the
map Yeah, the
bigger I
get, the
better the
hat The
bttter the
slacks, the
better the
shirts, the
more I
adapt The
more you pay attention to my sentences The
more you'll realize why I'm a
lyrcist And why I
sacrifice my time for this experience And why my album still isn't in your speakers yet You think you know me now, and you ain't even seen me yet Well, except maybe on your TV set Bring the
bridge [Instrumental Break] [Scratched:] "Bring the
bridge" [Chorus]
