[Intro]

So you tell me who the kids are looking up to

Chee, Superman Chip, listen

[Hook]

See they say that I'm a role model

But I didn't ask to be

You don't know what it's like

Going college everyday in my hood

When I know men are after me

They wanna see me fall cause I'm on TV

And all the little kids wanna be like me

So I guess I'm a role model

So I guess I'm a role model, listen

[Verse 1]

Balls in the sutin in the morn ain't me

Human nature I grab what I see

In fear of your life you'll grab what's in sight

And swing from the left to the right, alie

Listen, me, I'm just like you

My shit does stink, I'm human too

So why should I make a man violate me

If you don't ever make a man violate you?

See it's more then a Catch 22

Yeah I'm in the limelight, but what can I do?

If they choose to shut me out they will

And So Solid Crew be the damn living proof

See they need to promote, they promoted violence

But did not provoke cry or broken silence

But that's just the life of an artist

The spotlight makes you a target

[Hook]

See they say that I'm a role model

But I didn't ask to be

You don't know what it's like

Going college everyday in my hood

When I know men are after me

They wanna see me fall cause I'm on TV

And all the little kids wanna be like me

So I guess I'm a role model

So I guess I'm a role model, listen

[Verse 2]

I'm living proof you ain't gotta be a nerd to get As

Proof you ain't gotta be a shotta to get paid

Coming up I had some doors closed in my face

But on the road to sucess, I made me a lane

Paved me a way, just me and my team

Kept seeing red but I move like it's green

I couldn't find money but I'd find hope

Chasing the dream with a blind fold

Tryna find money with my eyes closed

Well I might as well have been

Tryna get to heaven but it feels like hell I'm in

And Gucci's got me blowin my dough

Cause I just spend money whenever I feel low

I feel like my mind's in a mosh pit

But thats just the life of an artist

See the spotlight made me a target

[Hook]

See they say that I'm a role model

But I didn't ask to be

You don't know what it's like

Going college everyday in my hood

When I know men are after me

They wanna see me fall cause I'm on TV

And all the little kids wanna be like me

So I guess I'm a role model

So I guess I'm a role model, listen

[Verse 3]

Growing up in a place where there's more hate then love

I was lookin up to men that made money off of drugs

Being surrounded by chicks in a club

Like who the hell said money can't buy love

And school is where the attitude starts

Most of what you learn is irrelevant outta class

Teach the kids to get As and shit

But dont tell a man to get mortgages

Society's designed to contain us in

But I know just what I'd be here for

Cause I give them everything

But they still want more

And 2Pac proved when they die they care more

But I ain't tryna die to sell

But I ain't tryna ask for help

That's just the life of an artist

The spotlight made me a target

[Hook]

See they say that I'm a role model

But I didn't ask to be

You don't know what it's like

Going college everyday in my hood

When I know men are after me

They wanna see me fall cause I'm on TV

And all the little kids wanna be like me

So I guess I'm a role model

So I guess I'm a role model, listen

[Outro]

See what people fail to understand

Is that when your an artist

Even when your in the right, you're in the wrong

You can't win

Lemme get some a's they won't put that in the paper

But let me go mad

And do a total madness

Probly even get the front page

Ageing to see me fall, it won't happen

I got some awards on me now
