​tpk - Rep & Fame lyrics

[Intro] Reputation... And Fame Both seperate But entirely related things One side, controls the other And the other, controls another You can't determine which is which [Hook 1] Reputation it's like a card To show motherf**ers you're entirely hard Treated like a star, know you'll go far Because you know exactly who the f** you are Reputation it's like a card To show motherf**ers you're entirely hard Treated like a star, know you'll go far Because you know exactly who the f** you are [Verse 1] Reputation tells them who you be The hardest motherf**er on them single streets Know for for doing the business, know for f**ing finishing-ing... Things with customers as if they were their lovers With reputation comes the trust of your peers And anything you could lust for a hundred years You're known for getting the job done, one hundred percent son So don't mess it up son or else you'll be reduced to none Reputation is hard to earn You have to do things in order to get the burn Driving around a moving truck for a single buck You'll be asking yourself, what the f**... Am I doing? You're earning the god damn respect Even though you don't get zeroes on that check What ever comes later on is what happens to you son When you get the respect and everything becomes done [Hook 2] Fame, it comes from above So that when you get it, you know you'll fly like a dove Everybody in the sky, taking the time to say hi Nobody wanting you to go goodbye Fame, it comes from above So that when you get it, you know you'll fly like a dove Everybody in the sky, taking the time to say hi Nobody wanting you to go goodbye [Verse 2] Fame is not a rank, it's a social status That makes other people wish that they had it You got to be prepared to be subserviant Or else the loss of fame will be permanent If you're found lying for the crime Then you won't be recognized for the time, you won't even get a dime You gotta balance it out between the good and bad Cause if you lose the fame then you'll find yourself mad But once you get the fame, it's unexplainiable Be prepared to be seen as more viable You get the stars, you know that you will go far With your bars and your cars, that's who you are Get a house in the hills, and have s** And look at those zeroes on them company checks Knowing you made it, but just this time Once you're done you'll go back to performing your rhymes [Hook 3] Reputation it's like a card To show motherf**ers you're entirely hard Treated like a star, know you'll go far Because you know exactly who the f** you are Fame, it comes from above So that when you get it, you know you'll fly like a dove Everybody in the sky, taking the time to say hi Nobody wanting you to go goodbye
