Be Somebody (feat. Lupe Fiasco, Holly Brook & Tak of S.O.B)
Green Lantern [echo] Uh MS Lupe Ya know, I'm a fan man, I'm a real fan (Gonna be somebody) Feel real honored to be up in here, ya know I'm sayin (Gonna be someone) They had to bring out the expensive mics for this one (Gonna be somebody) Ya know I'm sayin the seven thousand dolla headphones for this one here Yeah, ya know I'm sayin (Gonna be someone) Comeon, talk to em
[Mike Shinoda] This is the story of them against us Win or lose Forcin your feet into someone else's shoes Everybody's got somein to say That we oughta live their way What were doin's not okay In this world Everybody's got a chip on Both sides of their neck Got no respect Wait up a sec You ever feel like the pressure's too much too take Too much weight Ladies, and, Gentlemen If anybody can hear me right now Please shout back Were not the only ones feelin so trapped In a dream of somebody else In fact They got their heads full of some overblown scheme Opportunity they missed Back when they were sixteen And all they want to do is push you to be that And all you wanna do is scream back
[Chorus] Gonna be somebody For anybody tellin me I can't Gonna be someone For anyone who told me I had no chance Gonna be somebody I'm tellin you the time has come (Like that) Gonna be someone And maybe you'll get it when I'm finally done
[Mike Shinoda] We don't sleep to dream We sleep to build stamina Energy to do our thing Get your camera Cuz this ride is about to begin Sit down, and buckle it in Let me say it again In this world Everybody's got a chip on Both sides of their neck Got no respect Wait up a sec When I was young They said the odds of makin it Were slim, to none Ladies, and, fuck it I'm tired of them sayin the dream you have Doesn't exist Tellin you you're worthless Sayin you should quit Basically tellin' you That you'll never be shit Really they're pissed Cuz they'll never achieve Some opportunity they missed Back when they were sixteen And all they want to do is push you to be that And all you wanna do is scream back
[Lupe Fiasco] Uh They gone think you're crazy Mumblin' to yourself In the basement all day Uh-uh-uhin to ya self My pops didn't dig it Was shovelin to myself My boys used to get it They dug it because they felt My undertakin took me I was makin in my stealth For wealth of rhymes, of crazy I was chuckin to myself Then they went into the mental rolodex See I'm knowin bout heart Like a brain in my chest And I took up a school Where subjects was gettin felt Books under my seat No book layin on my desk My teacher's like, Mr. Jacob Yes? With all that knowledge You aint tryin to go to college Be a lawyer or a doctor Get a whole lotta dollas Rather degrade women And glorify violence Well the work that works for me Might not work for you No homework, I got work to do
[Chorus] Gonna be somebody For anybody tellin me I can't Gonna be someone For anyone who told me I had no chance Gonna be somebody I'm tellin you the time has come (Like that) Gonna be someone And maybe you'll get it when I'm finally done
(Im finally done)
