Role Model Lyrics - I Am Chipmunk - Chipmunk

So you tell me who the kids are looking up to 

Chee, Superman chip, listen 

See they say that I'm a role model 

But I didn't ask to be 

You don't know what it's like 

Going college everyday in my hood 

When I know men are after me 

They wanna see me fall 'cause I'm on TV 

And all the little kids wanna be like me 

So I guess, I'm a role model 

So I guess, I'm a role model, listen 

Balls in the sutin' in the morn ain't me 

Human nature I grab what I see 

In fear of your life you'll grab what's insight 

And swing from the left to the right, a light 

Listen, me, I'm just like you 

My shit does stink, I'm human too 

So why should I make a man violate me 

If you don't ever make a man violate you? 

See it's more then a catch 22 

Yeah, I'm in the limelight but what can I do? 

If they choose to shut me out they will 

And so solid crew be the damn living proof 

See they need to promote, they promoted violence 

But did not provoke cry or broken silence 

But that's just the life of an artist 

The spotlight makes you a target 

See they say that I'm a role model 

But I didn't ask to be 

You don't know what it's like 

Going college everyday in my hood 

When I know men are after me 

They wanna see me fall 'cause I'm on TV 

And all the little kids wanna be like me 

So I guess, I'm a role model 

So I guess, I'm a role model, check it, listen 

I'm proof you ain't gotta be a nerd to get A's 

Proof you ain't gotta be a shark to get paid 

Comin' up I had some doors closed in my face 

But the road to success made me a lane 

Gave me a way just me and my team 

Kept seein' red but I move like it's green 

I couldn't find money but I'd find home 

Chasin' the dream with a blind fold 

Tryna find money with my eyes closed 

Well, I might as well have been 

Tryna get to heaven but it feels like hell I'm in 

And Gucci's got me blowin' my doe 

'Cause I just spend money whenever I feel low 

I feel like my minds in a mosh pit 

But that's just the life of an artist 

See the spotlight made me a target 

See they say that I'm a role model 

But I didn't ask to be 

You don't know what it's like 

Goin' college everyday in my hood 

When I know men are after me 

They wanna see me fall 'cause I'm on TV 

And all the little kids wanna be like me 

So I guess, I'm a role model 

So I guess, I'm a role model, cee's up, listen 

Growin' up with you where there's more hate then love 

I was lookin' up to men that made money off of drugs 

Being surrounded by chicks in a club 

Like who the hell said money can't but love? 

And school is where the attitude starts 

More city learners are relevant outta class 

Teach the kids to get A's and shit 

But don't tell a man to get mortgages 

Societies designed to contain us in 

But I know just what I'd be here for 

'Cause I give them everything but they still want more 

And 2Pac crew when they die they care more 

But I ain't tryna die to sell 

But i ain't tryna ask for help 

That's just the life of an artist 

Spotlight made me a target 

See they say that I'm a role model 

But I didn't ask to be 

You don;t know what it's like 

Going college everyday in my hood 

When I know men are after me 

They wanna see me fall 'cause I'm on TV 

And all the little kids wanna be like me 

So I guess, I'm a role model 

So I guess, I'm a role model 

See what people fail to understand 

Is that when you're an artist 

Even if you're in the right, you're in the wrong 

You can't win 

Lemme get some A's they won't put that in the paper 

But let me go mad and do a total madness 

Probably even get the front page, aging to see me fall 

It won't happen, I got some awards on me now
