Don Trip - Allen Iverson lyrics

[Verse 1] When you come from nothing and turn it into a fortune The people around you all want their portion A couple Mercedes, a couple of Porsches The b**hes are shiesty so a couple abortions Hoes gets slimey, they all like oysters The media picking at you they all like vultures And you on the pedestal, you gotta stay focused Every move you make, it represents your culture You wanna be normal, but that life's over Now you on TV, magazines and posters Your represent gangstas, you represent soldiers And they can't stand you, why cause you not Oprah And you got tattoos, your hair corn rolled up And they like "oh my" and you like "so what" The world is cool but one thing it showed us Whatever don't k** us only makes us more tough [Verse 2] In search of fame, at sanity's cost You a household name, but all privacy lost You make a mistake, they hang you up on a cross All of a sudden they forgot who you are They forgot about all the times you hustled and fall Please show me a king thats never suffered a loss Or show me a man that never suffered a scar And I'll show you a man thats never given his all I'll show you man thats never given his heart From becoming a monster, it's all ya fault You can't be a gentleman when you swimming with sharks sh**, when you wanna be Superman, who gonna be Clarke Kent Pour out my heart until I wind up heartless Tryna become a father without having a father They here when you ride then celebrate when you fall But throughout it all, I just ball
