歌词

I came from nothing but I'm nothing like nothing
Nobody thought I was something
Called every name in the book
For every second guess I never gave a second look, look
I tell myself don't let it get to me
If the best they got is not impressing me
Then there's no resignation get the best of me
While you were aiming at my words
You missed the rest of me, like
How can I stop all these critics from their talking?
The more I do, the more they say, yeah
There's no way I'm stopping
So they just keep on talking
Who do you think I think I am?
I see there's more like me
Born in Babylon but you just got to be free
Shackles on your feet that you and me can't see
But you can feel them and they're heavy
And you need that key, like
Now you're looking at your hands, saying
Man, if I ditch the system, these could be mine
Then your hear a voice coming from behind
Don't even think about stepping out of line
How can I stop all these critics from your talking?
The more I do, the more they say, yeah
There's no way I'm stopping
So they just keep on talking
Who do you think I think I am?
♪
And now all I've got
They stand up behind me if you like it or not
I'm telling you, you that the fire's hot
Did you see that smoke?
And did you hear that shot?
'Cuz it's a war and in the middle I am
Judge me now with your pen in hand
I'm too busy to judge another man
I'm not trying to break the blueprint
That make the world understand
How can I stop all these critics from their talking?
The more I do, the more they say, yeah
There's no way I'm stopping
So they just keep on talking
Who do you think I think I am? yeah
How can I
How can I
Who do you think I think I am? yeah
Maybe I should go back to school
But any more education and it will make me feel like a fool
Guess I got to lecture this time
Cause I am in style

Alright
