Be Somebody

歌詞

Joker Johnny was a lie teller 'Cause he thought somebody might like him better So he built it up, 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 But all he had to do was stop and be himself Now everybody wants to be somebody Yes, it's true No tellin' what some people will do, oh Nobody wants to be a nobody 'Cause it's a far more bitter fate To go through this life Carrying the weight When they shoot somebody For the clothes they wear And they'll advertise it like it's ordinary They got territories so they stand their ground What they really know is what comes around It comes right back around What they really wanted Is to be accepted And find out in the end That the streets are self-correcting Everybody wants to be somebody Yes, it's true No tellin' what some people will do, oh Nobody wants to be a nobody 'Cause it's a far more bitter fate To go through this life Carrying the weight Far more worse than dying Is living with a soul That's laden with the consequence Of all the happiness you stole Sometimes a guilty conscience and carrying the weight Is harder than a bullet to the brain Yeah, yeah, yeah C'mon oh, oh, oh, oh Everybody wants to be somebody Yes it's true No tellin' what some people will do, oh Nobody wants to be a nobody 'Cause it's a far more bitter fate Yes, it is, yes, it is Everybody wants to be somebody Yes it's true No tellin' what some people will do Nobody wants to be a nobody 'Cause it's a far more bitter fate To go through this life carrying Never carrying the weight Never carrying the weight You gotta let it down, let it go Listen to me as I say Never carrying that weight Never carrying that weight You gotta let it go
