Verse 1:
Look at me
Carefully
You'll see that I am being
Someone that I've been meaning to put down
It astounds me profoundly
I'm sounding like a fool
Having a duel
With dual personalities
My thoughts project a man
My actions present childish things
While it seems like I'm the future
Next my dreams have all been butchered
Chorus
And all cause I
Always become some other guy
The minute I'm in the spotlight
But inside I can't even seem
To master peace
Verse 2:
Here I am
Just a ham
I swear that all I'm showing
Is that I do not know when to get real
Like my feelings aren't appealing
It's building a facade
That I'm hard
Without a heart moved by reality
Fantasy's not worth keeping up
If it just holds me back
Knowing that, I make my move then
Go straight back to what I moved from
Chorus
Verse 3:
You've been greatly misled, I'm not that guy you heard on your stereo
Making moves without the cussing but busting your radio
Typical rappers guess just lyrical actors
Giving performances without the happily ever afters
But that chapter is read in my book, it's time to stop it
Restart the program, back to the top like a rocket
And Houston won't have no problem; balling ain't an option
To be talking about cause I'm calling off the false in mouth
No fibbing, I'ma still be illing
No remission just eliminating some of my symptoms
Cause my immune system recognizes I got a virus
And I just hope I never have to recite this
Chorus
Outro:
And it's so ironic to me
That this album I just released
Happens to encompa** everything
That's not me
A masterpiece
That's the farthest thing it could be
s**s that now it's time that I see
The image you see with this CD
The monster is me
