[Intro] Uh, never good enough Baby nothin's ever good enough Uh, it's what? Uh [Interlude: Joe Budden] Nothin's ever good enough Hollywood, think he too good for us n***a's emo, he ain't in the hood enough How 'bout he's just misunderstood to us Vision is fine, I can still hear (So) So I pop one more 'til everything is unclear Cause why? (Cause why?) Nothin's ever good enough I'm just lookin for somethin, good enough [Joe Budden] Wonder where his mind is If everyone's impression is wrong then maybe mine is Jury's out, but the verdict's in Case ain't been heard, so how they murderin him? I appear to be arrogant, that's what they instilled in me Took it as a weakness when I showed 'em humility Insensitive, don't waste time tryin to tell me what emotions is - I'm emotionless I can't explain it, it comes from home Make me uncomfortable and you gon' put me in a comfort zone Double is me, feel what I feel and know he's strugglin Be tryin to get depression and sufferin from ME When your head's cluttered with noise you get lost Am I isolated by choice or by force? Listen, the fu*k y'all expect from me? Already given y'all the best of me But it seem like! [Chorus: Joe Budden] Nothin's ever good enough Hollywood, think he too good for us n***a's emo, he ain't in the hood enough How 'bout he's just misunderstood to us Vision is fine, I can still hear (So I) So I pop one more 'til everything is unclear Cause, just one wasn't good enough Crushin it in rum wasn't good enough The baddest girl wouldn't be good enough All the cash in the world ain't good enough (Why?) Cause you can go your hardest for your fans But like you they only human so they may not understand that I used to always try to be good enough And couldn't figure out why I wasn't good enough So instead of bein good enough I just wan' be better, than good enough [Joe Budden] The FRUCK's goin on around here? Contrivin and conformin is the norm around here It's tension, speak up and violence gets mentioned In the world where everybody gets by off silenced opinions And so I cut the red tape and the politics Know it's there, I'm just the only n***a to acknowledge it Learn from the acts that came before ya and retain the lawyer They told me, "Once you get the fame you get the paranoia" They say that he a has-been, irrelevant But e'ry word I say n***az get hella bent Tell you why I'm off of the charts, or on the bottom of your bracket I rap through the heart and some n***az lack it So I get why I'm greeted with spite Got nerve bein the truth, life's fine with them believin a lie! Even I no longer know what to expect from me But y'all have yet to see the best in me Still it seem like! [Chorus w/ minor variatons] [Joe Budden] Check it; I want it all, that's why I strive for it Diss me and you normally hear a reply for it But I'm startin my maturation and ignore 'em, let 'em continue they masturbation Say my actions don't match what I'm spittin So I tell 'em mind they business and let me stray They say that you becomin a walkin contradiction I tell 'em people change every day I tell 'em I've been makin my own decisions since a teen Tell me who the f** is y'all to intervene - here's a lesson I'm good enough for me, a n***a seem to be perfection Fifty grand, V.I.P., queens, imperfections Far from a beginner, n***a ain't a white belt Cry me a river, and I'll turn into Mike Phelps I'm just givin y'all the best of me And y'all just turn that into stress for me And so it seem like! [Chorus w/ minor variatons]
