Lyrics
They don't know me like they think they do, I ain't one for Hollywood A lotta shoulda-wouldas walk around you when the money's good And to me I ain't famous, I just made it 'cause I'm from the woods If papa ain't used to my kind to me I think it's understood I already made [?] for every girl barrel racing Every boy slidin' across the hood, landing on the pavement Got nothing to do with races unless it's racin' against myself To dedicate my life to feelin' good and not the void of wealth Go ahead, chase, the paper, I'll take a walk to see the source Take a field of flowers over camera flashes on board But these snapshots are timeless like an Iris that don't die So I smile and wave like flowers waving on edges of roadsides Don't worry 'bout me, I'll be alright Still doin' my thing as the cops fly All night, that's right I'll get where I'm going with no hitchhike And don't worry 'bout me when the sun goes down I'll be somewhere whistlin' to my own sound In my hometown, by my own self I'll get there, same shoes, no thumb out It's not an everyday occurrence that I get to feel normal People treat me like I'm royal, talk my head off with the courage They done filled my tank so much they just started overflowin' I'm good at rappin', good at singin', thank you, thank you, yeah I know it And my ego still the same but my anxiety is potent 'Cause I just wanna chill and be somebody nobody knows And I'm so high, I'm steady floatin', flickin' ashes down below me Thinkin' 'bout the road I'm on, the speed limit's still wide open How long can I drive without plowin' in a tree? Knockin' my face off like my friend Charlene Tell me how I'm 'posed to be sane when the world is makin' me crazy? The cities are set ablaze and the hatred is on the pavement And every time you make a statement, motherf**kers wanna take it There's another rapper like you being made at record labels Don't worry 'bout me, I'll be alright Still doin' my thing as the cops fly All night, that's right I'll get where I'm going with no hitchhike And don't worry 'bout me when the sun goes down I'll be somewhere whistlin' to my own sound In my hometown, by my own self I'll get there, same shoes, no thumb out I'm the one they didn't get, I'm the one they couldn't catch I'm the one they couldn't bribe with cars, groupies, and stacks Yeah, I'm that motherf**ker, ha, King Kong of my own castle With an army behind me ready to smack who's walking past me I done been down in the dumps, now I'm restless on a mountain Got the youth that people die for, yeah, my face is everlastin' But my music will outlast me, the outcast that kept their traction When the tires went bald I got out with my country ass Leave a laugh for the past, now as for the rest Sleeping good these days 'cause I made my bed Where I lay my head there's plenty paper and lead And they story ain't over 'til I got no blank pages left Don't worry 'bout me, I'll be alright Still doin' my thing as the cops fly All night, that's right I'll get where I'm going with no hitchhike And don't worry 'bout me when the sun goes down I'll be somewhere whistlin' to my own sound In my hometown, by my own self I'll get there, same shoes, no thumb out
