Know the boy D-Double do it all day Get the messing with his tracks, no foreplay Seems simple now but it wasn't always Used to sit up in the Pap High hallways Teacher put me there saying that I talk to much I thought I knew it all but I never knew much I come to school late because my form room sucked And we hang out by the canteen all through lunch Young teen with a pac(men)tality No dream I can make reality All I care about is popularity Trying to pass Jessica trying to get a touch And a Mufti day try them with some new Chucks Try them with some new Nikes or something They didn't give a fuck about assignments or nothing Didn't make music even though I loved it Scared to try , high to shy get busted(?)

So I sit on the sideline Despite in my time If I could be in their shoes The things that id do But wishing won't get you know where Dont be scared to go there If you sit in my wake Do it the right way (yeah ya)
[Verse 2: David Dallas]
No I wasn't in the first fifteen Wasn't in the choir, Never learned to sing Couldn't play an instrument or pluck a string Or the little rich kid whos dad bought him a car A regular dude fading in to the background Never took center stage, didn't really stand out I remember school TalentQuest We would hang out see this other dude rap Then he'd be the man around E block For like the next two weeks, scoring all of the chicks While these Diggas my mom bought, are falling to bits And I'm off in detention, for ignoring Mr. Smitts And this bitch mocked me in class for having big lips It was a hard knock life for a kid Till I realized that a life isn't lived If you're worrying about what other people might think of it Don't sleep on this little boy's raps because he might be a hit

[Hook Extra: Che Fu]
Dont let it go by There ain't no reason known why Youre waiting around You could be a star Just watch from a far Just stop waiting around
[Verse 3: David Dallas]
School finished did a little bit of growing up But it wasn't like music was blowin' up Shy as ever figured out I had to grow some nuts And put my self out there, so they know whats up And yeah I was pretty scared what they might say They FENZ at it and say its bad in a nice way Or I wasn't doing it the right way But there ain't no right or wrong Got one life to live and it ain't that long So you gotta stay strong, gotta stay on Another day sittin', wishin is another day gone Another day doing dishes, or just mowing up the lawn Coludve been another day that another star was born
[Hook]
[Outro: David Dallas]
Dont be scared man Dont worry too much about what people are going to say Because at the end of the day The only person who still thinks about that stuff is you Ya know?
