Lazerbeak - Rushmore lyrics

He Had a dream it would rise up and elevate Pictured a day that we all got to celebrate And by creating a term, he was spawning a movement of rappers who waited their turn To speak about being outcasts and coding and things Rather than controlling a lane The flow was insane My homies a**umed it wasn't real Then they were blown away by the brothers sk** This wasn't parody And every word was emoted with an astounding level on clarity And then the documentary- It wasn't all complimentary I felt a kindred kinda energy So Colorful and lovable Made our own skin feel so comfortable Nerdcore rose up, and that's wonderful We all owe it to the MC who Fronts the most CHORUS I want it all.. Put my name up on the wall in the hall of fame But the time I'm done here The whole world gone know the name Rushmore... Put me up on Rushmore... Till I'm up on Rushmore With the ones who changed the game Verse 2 A chance meeting with an animator Would turn a mild mannered comic to a major player Yeah, Quick witted with a distinctive voice Now the networks have made him their choice A recurring character on a hit show No more struggle now it's time to get dough Took on the road, to sold out shows Fanbase grows, highs then lows He read a negative tweet Kicked the kid out the club instead of letting it be This could've k**ed his career But thanks to dedicated audiences he still here Respect Deserves a lot more than he gets He brought a certain former teacher on tour when he quit For the talent and overcoming the challenge, mc, you hall of fame, first ballot No doubt about it CHORUS I want it all.. Put my name up on the wall in the hall of fame But the time I'm done here The whole world gone know the name Rushmore... Put me up on Rushmore... Till I'm up on Rushmore With the ones who changed the game Verse 3 Stanford grad with a gift of gab Bred in Punk rock but decided to hit the lab And spit some raps-- about literature cla**ics With commercial appeal When it hit it was ma**ive A bundle of energy on or off stage And it isn't an act, he's on one all day Complex with mad flows and concepts Nerd rap was making some progress We even rocked a world tour 50 dates, but I'm unsure which one of us learned more Picked up my freestyle bit But everybody does it, who could call a freestyle bit True Player for real, no doubt he got hits And it wouldn't surprise me a bit if he got rich Post punk laptop to lit hop it's hip hop Unquestionably He earned his spot CHORUS I want it all.. Put my name up on the wall in the hall of fame But the time I'm done here The whole world gone know the name Rushmore... Put me up on Rushmore... Till I'm up on Rushmore With the ones who changed the game
