[00:06.12] Lupe
[00:07.86] Ya know, I'm a fan man, I'm a real fan
[00:09.37] (Gonna be somebody)
[00:12.18] Feel real honored to be up in here, ya know I'm sayin
[00:14.02] (Gonna be someone)
[00:16.44] They had to bring out the expensive mics for this one
[00:18.81] (Gonna be somebody)
[00:21.42] Ya know I'm sayin the seven thousand dolla headphones for this one here
[00:24.54] Yeah, ya know I'm sayin
[00:25.11] (Gonna be someone)
[00:26.63] Comeon, talk to em
[00:28.31]
[00:28.91] This is the story of them against us
[00:29.98] Win or lose
[00:31.06] Forcin your feet into someone else's shoes
[00:33.22] Everybody's got somein to say
[00:35.02] That we oughta live their way
[00:36.81] What were doin's not okay
[00:38.23] In this world
[00:39.60] Everybody's got a chip on
[00:40.88] Both sides of their neck
[00:42.21] Got no respect
[00:43.39] Wait up a sec
[00:44.53] You ever feel like the pressure's too much too take
[00:47.01] Too much weight
[00:48.01] Ladies, and, Gentlemen
[00:49.87] If anybody can hear me right now
[00:51.50] Please shout back
[00:52.79] Were not the only ones feelin so trapped
[00:54.59] In a dream of somebody else
[00:56.76] In fact
[00:57.57] They got their heads full of some overblown scheme
[01:00.00] Opportunity they missed
[01:01.22] Back when they were sixteen
[01:02.37] And all they want to do is push you to be that
[01:04.66] And all you wanna do is scream back
[01:06.29]
[01:06.82] Gonna be somebody
[01:09.37] For anybody tellin me I can't
[01:11.22] Gonna be someone
[01:13.89] For anyone who told me I had no chance
[01:16.21] Gonna be somebody
[01:18.86] I'm tellin you the time has come (Like that)
[01:21.34] Gonna be someone
[01:23.37] And maybe you'll get it when I'm finally done
[01:25.32]
[01:26.35] We don't sleep to dream
[01:26.89] We sleep to build stamina
[01:28.74] Energy to do our thing
[01:30.33] Get your camera
[01:31.24] Cuz this ride is about to begin
[01:33.21] Sit down, and buckle it in
[01:35.21] Let me say it again
[01:36.13] In this world
[01:37.14] Everybody's got a chip on
[01:38.47] Both sides of their neck
[01:39.70] Got no respect
[01:40.93] Wait up a sec
[01:41.42] When I was young
[01:42.53] They said the odds of makin it
[01:43.85] Were slim, to none
[01:45.13] Ladies, and, fuck it
[01:46.99] I'm tired of them sayin the dream you have
[01:48.53] Doesn't exist
[01:49.72] Tellin you you're worthless
[01:51.10] Sayin you should quit
[01:52.25] Basically tellin' you
[01:53.39] That you'll never be shit
[01:54.63] Really they're pissed
[01:55.91] Cuz they'll never achieve
[01:56.99] Some opportunity they missed
[01:58.27] Back when they were sixteen
[01:59.32] And all they want to do is push you to be that
[02:01.80] And all you wanna do is scream back
[02:03.23]
[02:05.04] Uh
[02:05.50] They gone think you're crazy
[02:05.96] Mumblin' to yourself
[02:06.74] In the basement all day
[02:07.72] Uh-uh-uhin to ya self
[02:09.01] My pops didn't dig it
[02:10.25] Was shovelin to myself
[02:11.26] My boys used to get it
[02:12.53] They dug it because they felt
[02:13.73] My undertakin took me
[02:14.89] I was makin in my stealth
[02:16.13] For wealth of rhymes, of crazy
[02:17.66] I was chuckin to myself
[02:18.74] Then they went into the mental rolodex
[02:20.55] See I'm knowin bout heart
[02:22.09] Like a brain in my chest
[02:23.30] And I took up a school
[02:24.58] Where subjects was gettin felt
[02:25.71] Books under my seat
[02:26.85] No book layin on my desk
[02:28.14] My teacher's like, Mr. Jacob
[02:29.28] Yes?
[02:30.68] With all that knowledge
[02:31.88] You aint tryin to go to college
[02:32.95] Be a lawyer or a doctor
[02:34.17] Get a whole lotta dollas
[02:35.37] Rather degrade women
[02:36.57] And glorify violence
[02:37.71] Well the work that works for me
[02:39.14] Might not work for you
[02:40.20] No homework, I got work to do
[02:41.71]
[02:43.06] Gonna be somebody
[02:44.73] For anybody tellin me I can't
[02:46.52] Gonna be someone
[02:50.25] For anyone who told me I had no chance
[02:51.65] Gonna be somebody
[02:54.23] I'm tellin you the time has come (Like that)
[02:56.70] Gonna be someone
[02:58.80] And maybe you'll get it when I'm finally done
[03:01.08]
[03:01.40] (Im finally done)
[03:03.65]
