Join in on the Masquerade?
No....I won\'t let my future fade.
I intend to survive?
No...I intend to thrive.
Imma win this game
Walk away with the crown.
I\'m almost there
I jus\' figured I\'d share
For all those who care.
Prove ya lame?
Nah, no need.
I\'m here for du fame
So Imma plant this seed
I only care about this moment
Not tomorrow
Not yesta\' day
No, jus today
Am I blessed or am I lucky?
Maybe it was that jade monkey?
I made my wish
Got my dish
But where\'s the bad, the regret?
Am I a fad, or did I let
All the fame, all the money
Reach my head, now I feel funny.
I don\'t wanna go straight up
Cuz what goes up must come down
And it don\'t hurt going up
But it\'ll hurt falling down
Yeah, it\'ll hurt y\'all
Gotta learn to walk once I can fly
And, man, if I should die
I wanna go in the middle
Not on the bottom, on the griddle
Not on the top
As a flop.
I was nice to as many on my way up.
Didn\'t step on no heads,
No, jus shakin\' hands.
But will they catch me...
When I fall down
Man, I dunno y\'all....but
It pains me so
But I gotta let go
This notion
In my head
Just emotion
Thoughts are dead
And, while it hurts...
It\'ll have to do
So I\'ll try to....
