N.E.R.D. - Preservation lyrics

[N.E.R.D. - Preservation lyrics]

Hate when they call me superstar
Do I look like a superstar?
Yet unreachable and very far
Ever noticed I'm right here wit' y'all?
I cover my face because
They do not need to see
I ain't no gangsta or no thug
I am just being me the world smells of drama
So I cover up my nose
The faces like film leavin' out too long
Gets overexposed
Getting praised by magazines
From the girlfriends in my clothes
I hope they still love me when I shun away
Cause, I am afraid to blow

WANT WAR?! (Well) WAR WE'LL GIVE!
(We'll be rocking this) BANDANA!
(Well) So you cAN'T SEE SHIT!

Now the fear of blowing up


Definitely takes it's toll
It sends it's demons down to
Your mind to take control
If it thinks it's got my mind
It-it better think again
I got the pleasure of the
Piano and this powerful pen but, you (You)
You want fifteen minutes to shine
What's your concept?
What's so interesting? What's your desire?
Soon as you get your cover story
And your precious headlines
So sorry, so sorry, so sorry
They'll just fuck you from behind

WANT WAR?! Well! WAR WE'LL GIVE!
We'll be rocking this BANDANNA!
(Well! You) So You cAN'T SEE SHIT!

I don't wanna blow up
I'm smiling cause I know
All the pieces that make me me
Will glisten from my soul
My self-esteem is not a fake
It comes from within come and take a picture
I'll sign whatever you want my friend
Still (Still) , Still (Still)

Yeah! War

WANT WAR?! Well! WAR WE'LL GIVE!
We'll be rocking this BANDANA!
(Well! You) So You cAN'T SEE SHIT!

WANT WAR!?!
