XV - Bad News (Nobody’s Somebody) lyrics

Didn't you know I was waiting on you
Waiting on a dream that'll never come true
Didn't you know I was waiting on you
My face turned to stone when I heard the news
When you decide to break the rules
Cause, I just heard some real bad news

I'm like one mess away from picking up a mop
And one question away from if my album drops
Will I make to the stage
But never get any props?
Niggas don't got time for me
So they don't watch places where I've been
I run into past friends
Say "You still do music?" and it
Makes me just want to stop
Niggas making top ten lists
And I've paid my dues like rent
So I deserve my spot
Yeah, my rap peers try to shun me
You sprinting in a marathon
Trying to outrun me
Mickey Factz charging for tracks
Like he outdone me when I said
"Let's do something" when he
Wasn't doing nothing
But, I get it, music business needs business
Bet if I was from New
York shit'll be different
But, I'm just a boy from Kansas just spitting
So I gotta take my crown cause
They wouldn't fucking give it
The fan base I got really means a lot
Fly Boy Club tees at every show I rock
But will I act like them when I pop?
Get Mistah FABs intern and
Start charging for drops?
Sometimes I ask how they don't know my name
Six years ago I was featured on hiphopgame
A few years after that I
Was fucking with Game onpoint, Whoo Kid
Who's The Kid In The Green?
Back Pack, that's rap through the eyes of me
The kid that nobody listens to
They aspire to be
I reached out to Herfection
Wasn't looking in my direction
So I guess my talent see
Ain't required to see
Nerdy kids being admiring me my mom said
"Just live for what you dying to be"
I'm dying to see the day
That I finally get on
Sometimes I think I wanna make it
Just to prove people wrong
I did this song on my own
And never asked for handouts
I think I don't fit in but I never stand out
Frustrated with the game in a
Room with no windows
So I turn on the track and
Decided to air it out
Am I saying something they
Don't really care about?
Cause me talking about clothes will
Probably just wear them out
Haha! How could the blogs say I'm not nice?
The only dude from Wichita
That's been on Nahright
'09 so time to show and prove
My flow better My show improved
The Kid With The Green Back
Pack is on the move
And if this sound don't do it
I don't know what to do
Cause, I'm dealing with real shit
In my real life cause when you left it all
How do you feel right?
The quiet type so I don't say much
So every girl I talked to I
Lost in them holiday months
Valentine's coming up
Patrick's Day around the corner
So they all fall in love cause
I don't got time for 'em
Then I lost my phone with
A few on my connects
Never expected that would bring me
Closer to my ex they say I'm just a W away
From putting the W in the game
And that statement make me
Wanna think different
Cause, I'm helping the niggas that
Was saying I was lame
I'm about my dollars but I will never change
If you obscure and I don't like you
I won't like you with the fame
I told Seven I'mma try to be the same
And never turn into these new
Niggas in the game
I don't wear chains or Bapes or tattoos
And to say I ain't nice you gotta be cashews
So when Everybody's Nobody is that dude
Tell them cats who ain't listen that
You got some bad news
