[VERSE]
I find myself stuck in some foreign land
With record deals around me that I want to land
Sponsors calling me even the name brands
Tours fill my plans, the tropics to the sands
Interviews stacked, the topics and the fans
The love and the fame for what I do and who I am
It's all settled in place. Leave? No I can't
Self prophecy fulfilled, the art mastered
V.I.P. meet and greet, in comes the pack
The posters and t-shirts fill up the metal racks
Music pimp sample royalties fund the mack
From windows to mac there is no turning back
Off topic, almost lost it, now I'm back on track
It's showtime, the lights fade to pitch black
I step on stage and hope my mic is intact
The crowd cheers, sidetracked, I try to relax

This is it
The backstage coordinator gives me the que
I stand, peek out the curtains to a breathtaking view
Album of the year goes to Cla**ified Flow
Head over to the podium and say hello
Lost for words, but I gather all my thoughts together
Give thanks to my parents fans and supporters
Producers and managers, and then I proceed to the floor
Award show is over but the night has just begun
First Grammy in my hands, I walk over to my son
Kiss on the forehead, put him down and tell him run
To mommy and she saw me, off her chair she sprung
Celebrity family but the fame wouldn't change us
Through the red flames of the carpet we blushed
Black suits and dresses filled the room to the top
Longest walk of my life and then it all
Stopped
Wishful thinking, day dreaming, empty satisfaction
Procrastinating, work delaying, voluntary actions
Wake up to reality, unchanged pa**ion
Missing piece of the pie, slave ‘till I die, can't let that happen
