Cypress Hill- "rock Superstar" Lyrics - Wrestling

(Hook) 

A lot of er... sharks out there 

Turn up to take a bite of something 

What's hot 

A lot of comedians out there 

Try to change up 

Every time something new comes along 

Everybody wants to buy it 

Don't happen overnight 

(B-Real) 

So you wanna be a rock 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 

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

Looking in the mirror, dreamin about blowin up 

The rock crowds, make money, chill with the honeys 

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 you don't manifest for the wrong guy 

Egomaniac and the brainiac 

Don't know how to act 

Shits deep 48 tracks 

Studio gangster, mack, 

Sign the deal, thinks he's gonna make a mill 

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 to play 

Feel trapped in what you rapping 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 

Chours: 

So you wanna be a rock 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 

And be a rock 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 

(Hook) 

People see rock stars 

You know what I'm sayin 

But you still try to 

Get out'n work like, like... everybody else, you know 

You know, it is a fun job but it's still a job, you know 

Save your money, man... Save your money too 

Hit single don't last very long 

You know I'm sayin 

I mean I'm lucky in this game too 

There's gonna be another gat comin out 

Looking like me, soundin' like me next year 

I know this 

It'll be a flipside 

Of what you did 

Somebody's tryin to spinoff 

Like something serious 

(Sen Dog) 

You ever have big dreams of making big green 

Big shot, heavy hitter on the main 

And you wanna look shanty 

In the Bentley, be a snob and never act friendly 

You wanna have big fame, let me explain 

What happens to these stars and their big brains 

First they get played like all damn day 

Long as you sell everything will be OK 

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 a chrome raised high 

So you wanna roll far 

And live large 

It ain't all that goes with bein a rock star 

Chorus 

(B-Real) 

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 videos 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 Monie 

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 Palladium 

Who just wanna cling on, swing on, 

And so on 

Go on, fall off, 

The hoes roll on 

Till the next rock superstar 

With no shame 

Give him a year and 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 

They're fuckin' evil 

Assassins 

Assassins 

Chorus
