I'm out to be the best me [A] that I can be, working on my craft day in and out, you know that's [D] what I'm about, no
I'm not aiming to become famous, I just wanna play and [F#m] sing this
The only competition I [A] see is myself, I got a tunnel vision, kinda like [D] a telescope
And I'm looking at, and I'm picking at, everything that I could do to become [F#m] better
I see a lot of people, I [A] hear a lot of things, they're talking about diamond rings, [D] money things
I guess that happens when you hit the top, become unsatisfied with everything that you [F#m] already got
You say it's all about the [A] music, but mess around with girls who [D] do it
Yeah you lie to your fans, I'm singing from my shadow, you can call that [F#m] shade
My verse is straight and my [A] flow is hard, I paint my songs like a [D] work of art
I never grew up listening to other stuff, you can say I'm kinda different, [F#m] maybe just a bluff
But let me tell you I am 100 [A]% reality, I feel like I ain't dancing around a [D] film casino
Only see that I'll be dancing in, is a sea of fans in a [F#m] sold out MSG
Maybe a year or two, [A] maybe a year or three, it doesn't phase me [D] honestly
Even if I don't make it by then, I'll still be doing [Bm] shows so I'll make it in the [F#m] end, yeah
And if you think I'm irrelevant, [A] well then I must be [D] relevant
Cause you took the time to listen to my song that I wrote on my bed in my [F#m] bedroom
I don't sing war [A] backtrack, I write songs in my [D] snapback
I don't care what they say, keeping it real, kinda like an [F#m] acapella
I don't hook up with [A] strangers, I've got less than [D] respect
I don't care what they say, keeping it real, kinda like an acapella
Acapella, a-acapella, acapella, a-acapella, acapella, a-acapella
Keeping it [F#] real, kinda like an [E] acapella
[F#m]
Sometimes I need to focus on myself [A] and what I need
Sometimes I feel like my mind is on [D] its own kind of speed
But I guess the way that goes, you try to [E] write like a beast
This is my feast
Don't ever classify me as a [A] rapper
I spit a little bit and I can talk fast but [D] that's it
I ain't about the gold chains, ain't about the fake girls
Ain't about the high life, [A] ain't about the money
See my lyrics are different, they come alive the minute I start to see [A] them
I would say that I put my soul all up in them
But I am a ginger, you know how that [F#m] goes
My world comes together the moment my pen hits the paper
Like I'm a [D] jailbreaker, but I have committed no crime to be charged for
You see me in bars but don't know what I [F#m] stand for
I don't sing for a [A] backtrack, I write songs in my [D] snapback
I don't care what they say, keeping it real, kinda like an [F#m] acapella
I don't hook up with [A] strangers, I've got less in [D] respect
I don't care what they say, keeping it real, kinda like an acapella
Acapella, a-acapella
Acapella, a-acapella
Acapella, a-acapella
Keeping it [F#] real, kinda like an acapella [G] Wait
[F#m] My fingers bleed when I pluck strings
I was never raised to play this guitar with a big thing
At times people say I sound British when I say things
When I say things, say things
Now they coming to me asking if I wanna be the next big thing
I'm the next best thing, but hey, you better get your facts straight
I don't need a record label to show them my talent great
Cause if the people like it, then the people buy it
Why would I wanna hire another writer just to take it higher?
Foolish, like the gold that you place in my hands
That school's gold and I'm not fooled by this fame game
This Twitter game, it's so lame
Cause I'm verified on the inside
I don't need a blue check to be satisfied
