Success in One Song - Craig Xen

Aye, look

And in my 23 years I made it farther than they thought that I would

I say, «them» cause to them I had something to prove

But to me, I was just sharing my thoughts

I never shot for the stars, I just poured out my heart

(look) so now I’m stuck in this predicament, and everywhere I go they wanna

take a picture with me

And it’s crazy, they hated me and called me lame

Now the same ones who said that, saying congratulations

I ain’t move

I never set out to do this, or made music to seek anyone’s approval

I did this, and still do it for the same reason to help the corrupted youth

going through bullshit

And if you can’t feel me, then we cool with it

Cause ain’t nobody begging you to come and fuck with us

Matter fact, we do better off alone in the comfort of our world with headphones

on

See, I believe I wasn’t built for this world

I said that cause everywhere I went I never seem to fit in

Wanted me to sit in class or work a dead-end

And that ain’t set in well I had to go and get it

And by gettin' it, I mean I had to go and do the

Exact same thing they told me not to

They told me to follow rules and be responsible

I looked at each and every one of them as obstacles

Now it’s obvious, my audience contain the same people sayin' that I wouldn’t

never gone amount to shit

As a matter of fact, we both right

Cause I still ain’t shit but I’m inspiration to somebody

So yeah, you can sit around and cry about it

But when somebody ask about me you can’t lie about me

You gotta tell 'em that I made it where I got today and that’s a lot further

than you could ever dream of

I need love, (bitch) I’m a human being too

You might as well love me because the hate is fuel

And you don’t wanna keep fueling, this feeling that I get when somebody tells

me I can’t do somethin'
