We've all heard the saying "Just be yourself". But what does that really mean? The hip hop rush hour team, Yangsta & Vadell explains what they think about that phrase in this track.
lyrics
[Hook]
How should I live life? (Do You)
Will I be Liked? (Do You)
Am I too nice? (Do You)
How do I know what’s right? (Do You)
How should I live life? (Do You)
Will I be Liked? (Do You)
Am I too nice? (Do You)
How do I know what’s right? (Do You)
[Verse 1]
Gotta keep it one trill every single day
Alotta people ill cuz I’m true to my ways.
I say what I mean yo I got a big mouth,
Keep it real my motto yo that’s what I’m about.
Haters gonna hate, and lovers gonna love.
I stand my ground when push comes the shove.
On the social media, I go hard like a rock.
My tagged game crazy, call me xBox.
Thankful for the talent and the skills cultivated,
These past 5 years got me feelin’ like I made it.
Every song is a message, every fan is a present.
Every day is a blessin’, every loss is a lesson.
I try to keep my life cool and drama free,
But I still got a couple people hating on me.
IDGAF I live my life true,
I’m just doing me, so you, do you.
[Hook]
[Vadell Verse]
Back in junior high people hated me with a passion,
Because I liked Michael Jackson.
I got bullied ‘cause I was the only fan in school,
But I kept my head up, and managed, to make it through.
But now that I’m done school I see things are still the same.
People will always hate on you for everything.
Even folks in your family, will envy your success.
But don’t let it bring ya down keep rising above the rest,
Of the nay sayers. They can say you’re a joke,
But pass the mic to them and just watch em choke.
They all hope to see your downfall, huh
But in the end you’re the one on the bottom standing tall.
Stay true to yourself don’t compromise your style.
Cuz they ain’t doing nothing worthwhile,
Just do you. Don’t become a carbon copy.
Cuz an original will always outlast the wannabes.
[Hook]
Verse 3:
Gotta keep it one trill every single day,
Wanna stack pay and maintain my ways.
Succeed with my rapping everybody show me love.
Chasing my passion, but man it’s so hard.
Critics on my back, say I’m tryna be black.
But they get real quiet when I kill every track.
Stack my bread, yo I ain’t no sucka.
Make my name spread, call me peanut butter.
They say I can’t spit but I brush it off quick,
Suckas talking mad –ish but my skin mad thick.
They’re tryna throw shade but my future too bright,
Young fella so fly, so lemme take flight.
[Hook]
[Outro]
Vadell: Yo Yangsta man, how did you know rap music was gonna be cool?
Yangsta: Hahaha, I didn’t know rap music was gonna be cool. I like that stuff just ‘cause I like that stuff. Vadell, why do you play video games?
Vadell: I just like doing it man, it’s what I do.
Yangsta: There you go bro, there you go.
