Superstar(rock) Lyrics - Cypress Hill

So you wanna be a rock superstar? 

And live large, a big house, 5 cars, you're in change 

Comin' up in the world don't trust no body 

Gotta look over your shoulder constantly 

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

Looking in the mirror dreamin' about blowin' up 

The rock crowd, make money, chill with the honey's 

Sign autographs or whatever the people want from me 

Shit's funny how impossible dreams manifest 

And the games that be comin' with it, nevertheless 

You got to go for the gusto but you don't know 

About the blood, sweat and tears and losing some of your peers 

And losing some of yourself to the years past gone by 

Hopefully it don't manifest for the wrong guy 

Egomaniac and the brainiac don't know how to act 

Shit's deep, 48 tracks 

Studio gangster mack signed the deal, thinks he's gonna make a mil' 

But never will 'til he crosses over 

Still filling your head with fantasies 

Come with me, show the sacrifice it takes to make the cheese 

You wanna be a rock 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 the way 

Still trapped in what you rappin' about 

Tell me what happened when you lost clout 

The route you took started collapsing 

No fans, no fame, no respect, no change, no women 

And everybody shits on your name

So you wanna be a rock superstar? 

And live large, a big house, 5 cars, you're in change 

Comin' up in the world don't trust no body 

Gotta look over your shoulder constantly 

So you wanna be a rock superstar? 

And live large, a big house, 5 cars, you're in change 

Comin' up in the world don't trust no body 

Gotta look over your shoulder constantly 

You ever have big dreams of makin' big cream? 

Big shot, heavy hitter on the mainstream 

You wanna look shanty in the Bentley 

Be a snob and never act friendly 

You wanna have big fame, let me explain 

What happends to these stars and their big brains 

First they get played like all damn day 

Long as you sell everything will be O.K 

Then you get dissed by the media and fans 

Things never stay the same way they began 

I heard that some never give full to the fullest 

That's while fools end up dining on the bullet 

Think everything's fine in the big time 

See me in my Lex' with the chrome raised high 

So you wanna roll far and live large? 

It ain't all that goes with bein' a rockstar 

Photos 

So you wanna be a rock superstar? 

And live large, a big house, 5 cars, you're in change 

Comin' up in the world don't trust no body 

Gotta look over your shoulder constantly 

So you wanna be a rock superstar? 

And live large, a big house, 5 cars, you're in change 

Comin' up in the world don't trust no body 

Gotta look over your shoulder constantly 

My own son don't know me 

I'm chillin' in the hotel room lonely 

But I thank God I'm with my homies 

But sometimes I wish I was back home 

But only no radio or video didn't show me 

No love, the phony, gotta hit the road slowly 

So the record gets pushed by Sony 

I'm in the middle like mony 

And the press say that my own people disown me 

And the best way back is to keep your head straight 

Never inflate the cranium 

They're too worried about them honies at the Paladium 

Who just wanna cling on, swing on, and so on 

Go on, fall off, the hoes roll on 

'Til the next rock superstar with no shame 

Give him a year, he'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 so cheesy, the fuckin' lethal 

"Assassins, assassins" 

So you wanna be a rock superstar? 

And live large, a big house, 5 cars, you're in change 

Comin' up in the world don't trust no body 

Gotta look over your shoulder constantly 

So you wanna be a rock superstar? 

And live large, a big house, 5 cars, you're in change 

Comin' up in the world don't trust no body 

Gotta look over your shoulder constantly
