BE YOURSELF lyrics

DMX intro..

Verse 1
I can be who i wanna I'm better as myself
Thoughts that take me back to when i needed someone's help
Ima live forever through my records not my flesh
I used to think I'm Pac , Nas , mixed with DMX
Made more sense, eventually a n*gga found himselves
Study goats, jot it down and then i follow steps
But i won't, imitate n*ggas just to get on shelves
My sh*t will sell ,triple platinum , n*gga by being myself

Trust no human but i trust em just to be themself
Can keep your kudos i know n*gga's hatе to wish you well
I make it happen i dont throw no coins in wishing wеll
I keep on making magic lord i can't unbreak the spell

Hook

I can be who i wanna I'm better as myself
Thoughts that take me back to when i needed someone's help [woah]
Ima live forever through my records not my flesh
I used to think I'm Pac , Nas , mixed with DMX [bark]
Made more sense, eventually a n*gga found himselves
Study goats, jot it down and then i follow steps
But i won't, imitate n*ggas just to get on shelves
My sh*t will sell ,triple platinum , n*gga by being myself
Verse 2
I've witness poverty
n*ggas on my di*k bout when I'm blowing up get off me
If i dont make it doing what i love then life's a mockery
The type of sh*t that makes n*ggas resort to robberies
Hitting licks , don't play the lottery
Honestly , i got one life to do it properly
Moms been renting all her life i gotta buy us property ... Facts

Willingly by myself , no need to be compelled
By yall underwhelmed we can never be parallel
Law of attraction , everything i attract i once repeled
All the sh*t i used to struggle with , n*gga i now excell
Knew rhat im above your average when i chose to be myslef
n*gga i killed AYAEAZY as soon as i broke out my shell

Outro


I can be who i wanna I'm better as myself

Made more sense, eventually a n*gga found himselves
Study goats, jot it down and then i follow steps
But i won't, imitate n*ggas just to get on shelves
My sh*t will sell ,triple platinum , n*gga by being myself
