We'll be right back.
Me deaf, dumb, and blind
Wacky white, one writing rhyme
Chronically ill, never saw the sign
It was sublime
That's when I took my first kick in the behind
Hazy day, but it's all becoming clear to me now
Took a lot to see that you knew how to care
To crush what I rushed
To think someone else could feel like myself
But you did
I don't know how you did it, but you did
94, sitting on a bench in front of my classroom door
Gave a wink, I dropped my books on the concrete floor
Picked them up and stumbled on a 2C more
Yep, you were the one, the one that I adore
Three months passed and I can't keep you out of my dome
Couldn't dream about the idea of being alone
If it wasn't on my hip, it was over the phone
Nothing better than this, as far as I had known
One, two, three, hit it
She's dying
She's dying
She's dying
She's dying
Ooh, you always were somebody
I
I
I wanna be somebody too
This time
I'm gonna shine like the sun and
This time
I'm gonna take care of number one
This time
I'll test the water before I die
This time
And thank the lord that I'm still alive
This time
I'll be a gentleman and a thug
This time
Take the game beyond and above
This time
Carefully playing my steps out
This time
I'll take it all the way, no doubt
Showing, showing, showing that I could succeed
It takes a lot of will but I guess you planted that seed in my soul
And I'm grateful, thankful that you can sow
Paying back for the advice that I was told
We taking this to another level, way up, up
And I won't give up even when I'm stuck
Keep on moving the crowds and screaming out loud
That this is your * y'all so get up now
This time
This time
This time
This time
You
You always were somebody
I
You
Always were somebody
I
I wanna be somebody too
