Lyrics: Layzie Bone: Lost & Found: Be Somebody
What’s happenin’ y’all? It’s your boy, L-Burna. Hey hey. Just sendin’ a shout out to all the happy people. What’s up, happy people? Yeah. (And we ain’t worried about a damn thang, uh uh) I know it’s hard out there, but keep your head up, you know what I mean? (And we ain’t worried about a damn thang, uh uh) Real talk. Let’s get it.
Chorus
I ain’t lookin’ for nobody that can hook me up or put me on (put me on)
I’m the truth and I’m authentic
I’ma do it on my own (my own)
I ain’t waitin’ on nobody (nobody)
Ain’t countin’ on nobody (nobody)
I’m out to be somebody
I’ma be somebody (somebody)
I ain’t waitin’ on nobody (nobody)
Ain’t countin’ on nobody (nobody)
I’m out to be somebody
I’ma be somebody (somebody)
Woke up this morning like it’s the first day of school again
Will I dress up like a hoooligan
Go there and act a fool again
How many lives can one man ruin
When it’s one lifetime to do it in
Don’t they kinda make you wonder
Pick a number but include him in
Now that I’m older I got people I’m influencin’
I’m tryin’ to build a better rapport with them
‘Cause I was true within
Let me start new again
And it means I would be cool with them
‘Cause I know now all the corruption would perish into the new system
This rhythm knowledge playa
My melody-ologies
Since I can’t go back where I been
Ain’t no apologies
As long as we live and learn
We all gon’ make mistakes
It’s just like Kurtis Blow said
“These are the breaks”
And don’t forget to pray
Do that like everyday now
Don’t fall astray
Just keep your head up high
Stand tall and stay now
Don’t play now
You say you with me
Then you with me
Split that hundred fifty-fifty
Independent
Sing with me
C’mon
Chorus
I ain’t lookin’ for nobody that can hook me up or put me on (put me on)
I’m the truth and I’m authentic
I’ma do it on my own (my own)
I ain’t waitin’ on nobody (nobody)
Ain’t countin’ on nobody (nobody)
I’m out to be somebody
I’ma be somebody (somebody)
I ain’t waitin’ on nobody (nobody)
Ain’t countin’ on nobody (nobody)
I’m out to be somebody
I’ma be somebody (somebody)
This song is dedicated to Trill Will. We love you, man. I know you lookin’ down on us.
I done been in the trenches for a minute
How the hell did I get in it
Like I was born with strikes against me
With this next bitch let me finish
Let me hurry up get to the business
‘Cause the game ain’t waitin’ on Layzie Bone
Time is steadily tickin’
Like I entered into the danger zone
So what did I mean is war
Me against the world
Oh boy
You better stay clear of my path
I’m sweepin’ the room and moppin’ the floor
Dottin’ my I’s
Crossin’ my T’s
Leavin’ these niggas no air to breathe
Come around ’cause they notice the cheese
Don’t stick out your hand ’cause that ain’t Steve
And y’all ain’t G’s if you worried about what the next man doin’
Do your thang
What you pursuin’
Always talkin’
Who you foolin’
Ruin this
They wish they could
Niggas is not gon’ stop the grind
Be doin’ this shit ’til the day I die
Makin’ that doubler multiply
And don’t forget to pray
Do that like everyday now
Don’t fall astray
Just keep your head up high
Stand tall and stay now
Don’t play now
You say you with me
Then you with me
Split that hundred fifty-fifty
Independent
Sing with me
C’mon
Chorus

Ain’t countin’ on nobody (nobody)
I’m out to be somebody

I ain’t waitin’ on nobody (nobody)
Ain’t countin’ on nobody (nobody)
I’m out to be somebody
I’ma be somebody (somebody)
