Wicked
Lyrics
You see I've made my name
Mastered the art of fame
And it'd be wrong of you to underestimate
If you don't think I've got the audacity
You can try to hold me down but I'm defying gravity
I think imma do it for the bag
I think imma play it like a game
I think imma do it for the name
I think imma do it for the same reason most heathens reason with fame
Do I wanna be feared or respected
Well
Does it really matter anymore when everybody in the world that we're living in thinks they're the same
Thought I could've been a better man but the truth is
People are ruthless
Equally clueless
Need to be told what to do to believe they can do it
Don't mean to be rude
But you follow the lead of a dude
Who models his dreams and views of leadership
Off of his streams and views
So follow me until you acknowledge that
I can be evil too
The pen is mightier than the S-word
The pen is mightier than the S-word
Wait what
The pen is mightier than the S-word
I think you accidentally put a space
Ahhh Shoot
You heard the man
Shoot first then you hit em with a questionnaire
What a perfect plan
Don't need no seat at the table
Trust me
Everybody knows I prefer to stand
I'm a solo act
And I don't hold back when i throw stacks
But I still phone home after the show
Cuz I know that most cats wont check back with a loved one
Or remember just where they come from
Too busy pretending to be someone
Too wicked to ever become loved on
But they only wanna fight with the gloves on
So instead of a typical individual livin to do the minimal
Limited to the primitive images of a criminal
Consider me the arch enemy to the hero that you'll try to be
I am not antisocial
I'm just anti-society
So lie to me
Tell me you love this side of me
Sorry but Dr. Jekyll's been Hydin'
No need to waste my time cryin
Either commit to the villainy
Or be cowardly lyin
I think I made up my mind about what i do with my power
Do I wanna be feared or respected
When I'm all alone in my tower
Lookin down at the people who need to believe in me
To live peacefully
Thinking how do I lead when the beast in me
So easily
Make good folks seem like a feast to me
You see I've made my name
Mastered the art of fame
And it'd be wrong of you to underestimate
If you don't think I've got the audacity
You can try to hold me down but I'm defying gravity
I think imma do it for the bag
I think imma play it like a game
I think imma do it for the name
I think imma do it for the same reason most heathens reason with fame
Do I wanna be feared or respected
Well
Does it really matter anymore when everybody in the world that we're living in thinks they're the same
Thought I could've been a better man but the truth is
People are ruthless
Equally clueless
Need to be told what to do to believe they can do it
Don't mean to be rude
But you follow the lead of a dude
Who models his dreams and views of leadership
Off of his streams and views
So follow me until you acknowledge that
I can be evil too
The pen is mightier than the S-word
The pen is mightier than the S-word
Wait what
