Ab-soul Fame lyrics

Fame by Ab-soul

[Intro: Ab-Soul]
The fame
The fortune
The need to be important
Will exist as long as the Earth is in orbit

[Verse 1: Ab-Soul]
Far from a Frankie Lymon but I'm feelin' the scrutiny
The fame
The bitches in they visions is screwin' me
Cause they don't see Soul
They see commerce
{Boy you finna be the biggest}
Get her a pre-sale ticket
I used to sit and stare at my phone and wait for rings
Like professional athletes or any wife to be
Now it's ringin' off the hook cause I wrote a tight 
hook
The list goes on man
I could write a book
But you know the popular sayin'
"Be careful what you wish for"
I just wanted to move people
I didn't know it'd come with this whore
Got me steppin' outside like menthols
Well sellin' your soul's the end all be all
I'm just tellin' the truth people
But you could prolly only feel me if you're involved
Just know what you in for

[Hook: Ab-Soul]
Some people wonder why I wear shades at night
I say "Cause in the dark, they're still that bright."
I see my enemies
They see me too
You wish you was me like something's wrong with you
They say I'm becomin' such a household name
That everywhere I go I'm sure to feel the
{Fame}
Some people wonder why I wear shades at night

[Verse 2: Ab-Soul]
Tell me how you supposed to feel when you walk in a 
room
Everybody swellin' your head 'til it's as big as the 
room
You still ain't made it
But it appears to be comin' true
At a time you tryna find what the world is comin' to
And don't forget about your family
You would think it was all love
They waitin' for you to fuck up to blame it on your 
moms
Like "She did a horrible job
He don't look too good in the eyes of God."
But you know the popular sayin' "Be careful what you 
wish for."
It just might happen
I never thought I'd make it this far
When I was young I used to wanna ball like Chris Paul
Hoop dreams converted to writin' hit songs
To some of y'all it's just rappin'
