i was young i was dumb got a burn in the sun on the day when i
- i saw you
had a talk, took a walk, in the groove, made a move on you
-and you did too
if i could write you a letter back
then i would write you a letter babe, real talk its true
but my contract clearly states
i don't have time to do half the things that i want to
yeah i want to - do you
but when you're famous
everybody wants your name
you dont have time for miscellaneous thangs
that you used to do everyday
yeah when youre famous
everybody wants your name
but all i wanna do is complain
at the lack of time that i spend with youuuu
now let me break this whole thing down one sec
sorry who are you? i need a background check
my name is my game and im here to preach
to all the lovers suffering from a relationship breach
man, you know i can feel youre pain, there aint nothing worse than
standing outside in the rain
its a shame, it had to happen to you
but its not up to me, yeah its up to the dude
in the sky, have you ever heard of him?
jesus christ
was the ultimate lonely guy, no kids no life no wife
and what did he do? Sacrificed himself and acted as food
its a metaphor, you don't have to kill yourself
just chill yourself, like zooey deshanel in the movie elf
you need to look to your heart, if thou hast eyes to see
she has deceived her father and may well thee
cause when youre famous
everybody knows your game
everybody feels your pain
no pain no gain it takes a heartbreak or two to gain critical acclaim
