Rap Superstar Lyrics - Skull & Bones - Cypress Hill

(Eminem Speaking) 

Most people don't see how much work is really involved 

in this rap shit 

I didn't know it 

I didn't see it 

I never saw it until i was actually in it 

You really gotta be in it 

To understand what its like 

But you always gotta 

People always gotta see your smile 

You always gotta put on that fake 

You know what i'm sayin 

No matter what u just been through 

(B-Real) 

So you wanna be a rap superstar 

And live large a big house 

5 cars, you're in charge 

Comin up in the world 

Don't trust nobody 

Gotta look over your shoulder constantly

(B-Real) 

I remember the days when i was a young kid growin up 

Lookin in the mirror dreamin about blowin up 

To rock crowds make money 

Chill wit the honies 

Sign autographs and whatever the people want from me 

Shits funny 

How impossible cream manifest in the games that be comin with it 

Never the less you gotta go for the gusto 

But you don't know about the blood sweat and tears 

and losin some of your peers 

And losin some of your self 

Music has past gone by 

Hopefully you don't manifest for the wrong guy 

Egomaniac in the brainiac 

Don't know how to act 

Shits deep 

48 tracks 

Studio gangsta mack 

Sign a deal emcees wanna make a mill 

But never will 

Till he crosses over still 

Feelin no hate 

But fantasies come wit these 

Just to sacrifice the taste of makin cheese 

You wanna be a rap superstar in the biz 

And take shit from people who don't know what it is 

I wish it was all fun and games 

But the price of fame is high 

And some can't pay to play 

Trapped in what you rappin about 

Tell me what happened when you lost clout 

The rout you took started collapsing 

No fans 

No fame 

No respect 

No change 

No women 

And everyone shits on your name 

Photos 

(Chorus) 

So you wanna be a rap superstar 

And live large 

A big house 

5 cars 

The rent charged 

Comin up in the world don't trust nobody 

Gotta look over your shoulder constantly 

To be a rap superstar 

And live large 

A big house 

5 cars 

The rent charged 

Comin up in the world don't trust nobody 

Gotta look over your shoulder constantly 

(Noreaga Speaking) 

When you sign to a record label 

You don't know you sign your life over 

And these whiteboys don't care about you 

'cause the minute you fall off 

They'll find another Noreaga 

And they'll find another Capone-n-Noreaga 

And they'll find another B-Real 

So you need to just keep 

Stack your chips up 

Do what you gotta do while your hot 

And maf**kin get out the game 

Stick to the drug game 

And the drug game is even worse 

Because if someone jerks you 

You can shoot em and kill me 

But in this game if someone jerks you 

You gotta be humble 

(Eminem Speaking) 

No matter what you just been through 

Shit has gotta be right 

You gotta approach people 

You gotta be on the up and up 

And everything gotta be all good 

When you see someone slap hands with em 

You know what i'm sayin give em a pound 

Or whatever it is 

But you always gotta act like it ain't shit 

(Chorus) 

(B-Real) 

My own son don't know me 

Sittin up in the hotel room lonley 

But I thank god I'm wit my homies 

But sometimes I wish I was back home 

But only no radio or videos 

'cause they show me no love 

The phony gotta hit the road slowly 

So the record gets pushed by sony 

I'm in the middle like monie 

And the press say that 

My own people disowned me 

And the best way back 

Is to keep your head straight 

Never inflate the cranium 

Your crew worried about them honies at the paladium 

Who just wanna cling on swing on 

And so on and go on and fall off 

The hoes fall off 

To the next rap superstar 

Wit no shame give him a year 

And they'll be right out the game 

The same as the last one 

Who came before him 

Gained fame 

Started gettin ignored 

I warned him 

Assured him 

This ain't easy take it from weezy 

Sleezy people wanna be cheesey 

They talkin evil 

(Chorus)
