9.Be Somebody
Joker Johnny was a lie teller
Cause he thought somebody might like him better
So he built it up and built it up till it all fell down
But he never thought the bitter truth was gonna find him out
He did it all to impress someone else
When all he had to do was stop and be himself
Oh everybody wants to be somebody
Oh yes its true, no telling what some people will do
Oh nobody wants to be a nobody
Cause its a far more bitter fate
To go through this life Caring the weight
When they shoot somebody for the clothes they wear
And theyll advertise it like its ordinary
They got territories and so they stand their ground
But what they dont know is what comes around
It comes right back around
What they really wanted is to be accepted
To find out in the end that the streets are self-correcting
Oh everybody wants to be somebody
Oh yes its true, no telling what some people will do
Oh nobody wants to be a nobody
Cause its a far more bitter fate
To go through this life Caring the weight
Far more worse then dying is living with a soul
Thats laden with the consequence of all the happiness you stole
Sometimes a guilty conscience and carrying the pain
Is harder than a bullet to the brain
Oh everybody wants to be somebody
Oh yes its true, no telling what some people will do
Oh nobody wants to be a nobody
Cause its a far more bitter fate
To go through this life Caring that
Oh everybody wants to be somebody
Oh yes its true, no telling what some people will do
Say nobody wants to be a nobody
Cause its a far more bitter fate
To go through life, always Caring that weight
Always carrying that weight, you got to let it go
Let it go, listen on more time,
I say always carrying that weight
Always carrying that weight,
Just let it go, and just put it down,
Let it carry in the way
