[Intro]
Fame...
Fortune...
All of that I want...
And all of that I need...
[Verse 1]
I got the fame, but it's not enough
I got a brain but I want that bentley truck
I want everybody to like me, so I spend bucks
But I end up giving them to complete total s**ups
The reward I got was everlasting fame
But I was constantly broke, I couldn't play the game
Pay to play is the only term that I'd use
Especially when the people in power always abuse
I conflict with the police because f** them...
They have bias towards everybody, they're not my friends
It's not my fault so stop blaming it on me
And stop telling them lies, they're imaginary
I knew people couldn't stand me, they can't tell it to my face?
Do they think they themselves will be disgraced?
I let the fame get to my head, don't let it get to you
Because once you lose it, you're back to paying dues
[Chorus]
I got the fame...
I got the fame...
This ain't no game...
This ain't no game...
I got the fame...
I got the fame...
This ain't no game...
This ain't no game...
[Verse 2]
It's mysterious, having all of this fame
Almost makes you twisted and deranged
As if it's a virus infecting your brain
Trying to keep up the fa**ad leaves me drained
I got an ego now, I need even more affection
Ignoring the signs that are headed my direction
I'm floating higher, I'm getting fatter
I'm losing all emotion, I don't know what matters
I'm like a mentally retarted man who doesn't have a life
Never could get one, never could think twice
Money is the root of all evil, but we live off it
Because our society is f**ed up crazy legit
$600 a month for an apartment, how do I get groceries?
I'm living in my dads house, why should I be boasting?
It's a f**ed up situation I'm in, living spoiled
It's a shame that my plans for fame have been foiled
[Chorus]
I got the fame...
I got the fame...
This ain't no game...
This ain't no game...
I got the fame...
I got the fame...
This ain't no game...
This ain't no game...
