I'm the man on the mountain, come on up. I'm the plowman in the valley with a face full of mud. Yes, I'm fumbling and I know my car don't start.

One day your story will be told. One of the lucky one's who made his name. One day they'll make you glorious. Beneath the lights of you deserved fame.

I don't like the drugs but the drugs like me. I don't like the drugs, the drugs, the drugs. Norm life baby. We're white and oh so hetero.

Try to tell me what I shouldn't do. You should know by now, I won't listen to you. Walk around with my hands up in the air. Cause I don't care.

When you're lost in the moment. You can't see where you goin'. I didn’t know who I could trust. So I put all my faith in us. Oh, you tore me to pieces.

If you close the door. The night could last forever. Keep the sunshine out. And say hello to never. All the people are laughing. And they're havin such fun.

Are you a man of peace. Or man of holy war? Too many sides to you. Don't know which anymore. So many full of life. But also filled with pain.

(He who makes a beast out of himself). (Gets rid of the pain of being a man). Caught here in a fiery blaze, won't lose my will to stay.

Why you wanna tell me how to live my life? Who are you to tell me if it's black or white? Mama, can you hear me? Try to understand.

Wake up in the morning feeling like P Diddy. Grab my glasses, I'm out the door - I'm gonna hit this city.

If I could stick my pen in my heart. And spill it all over the stage. Would it satisfy ya, would it slide on by ya.

Cold as steel the darkness waits it's hour will come. A cry of fear from our children worshipping the sun.

A ballad of dark queen echoes through night. As he flees the curse of gods, the pharaoh's wrath. 1001 nights unseen. The philosopher and the queen.

Dum-da-dee-da. Do-do-do-do-do-do. (Comin' down, drippin' candy on the ground). It's that Yoncé, your Yoncé. In that lingerie, on that chardonnay.

Lost in the fog, these hollow hills. Blood running hot, night chills. Without your love, I'll be. So long and lost, are you missing me?

Ayy, yo. Look like I'm goin' for a swim. Dunked on 'em, now I'm swingin' off the rim. Bitch ain't comin' off the bench.

You say you need someone. But everybody does. I'm no different than you. I just believe what I do. You point your finger at. Everyone but yourself.

Come to me. In all your glamour and cruelty. Just do that thing that you do. And I'll undress you. Keep it tight. Sometimes the simplest move is right.

I count the ways I let you down. On my fingers and toes but I'm runnin’ out. Clever words can’t help me now. I keep you tight but you're slipping out.

Can't read my. Can't read my. No he can't read my poker face. Amidst all of these flashing lights. I pray that fame won't take my life.
