Lyrics
Do you really wanna know
Expressing curiosity or challenging the listener's desire for knowledge.
What it took to be all alone at the top of the food chain?
Reflecting on the challenges faced to reach the top of the hierarchy.
When I'm up there standing in front of cameras
Describing the experience of being in the spotlight, possibly in a competitive environment.
A thousand eyes staring at you hoping you fall
Acknowledging the scrutiny and expectations, with a hint of anticipation for failure.
I was made for this, I know the sound of glory calling and I couldn't resist
Confidently asserting a sense of purpose and destiny in the face of challenges.
From what I've learned of the years of ups and downs
Sharing wisdom gained from life's highs and lows.
The whole game can change just when you figure it out
Highlighting the unpredictable nature of success and how understanding it can be fleeting.
So let me give you, a little piece of advice
Offering advice to be authentic and trust that things will fall into place.
Just be yourself kid, the rest will fall into place

When did it start? Let me begin

Chapter 1 page 1, are you listening?

I wanna bring you back to the streets
Expressing a desire to return to humble beginnings, the streets in this context.
Passing out my fucking demo for free

Passing fliers when it's 20 degrees
Highlighting the dedication to promotion, even in challenging conditions.
To promote my show
Connecting the effort to promote with the ultimate goal of showcasing talent in a live setting.
That's some shit you knew, just will never fucking know
