(Ve'Quell)
Lights. Camera. Action
I don't like being in the spotlight, simply because it's too much pressure
Everybody never asks me about my feelings, it's just do this, do that
I'm tired of living up to everyone's standards, I'm ready to live for me
I want people to like me for who I am, not for what I am
These girls throw themselves at me, I'm a man so I have no choice but to catch it
I like filling my needs to, but still I want to find a girl whi doesn't even know me
Then maybe I can be me?
Truth be told, back at home, nobody cares, my parents are always at work
They don't have time for me, just as long as they cop the new pair of jay's
They feel like it's alright, I've been raised by name brands
People only see the flashy Q, not the real me
I just want to go a day without being noticed
But here goes one more year of high school, the social media stage
Once I open these doors, another year of the true me being incognito
Another year of fake smiles and fake laughs and fake people
Then bam, I just walked straight into my destiny,
Kalifa James
