If I was granted one wish
It would be for you to see me
For who i really am

Because these looks can be deceiving
And i sear to God
If you really listen closely

By the time this song is over
You will truly know me.


'Cause i am not a monster
I am just a man
And I'm $#&@ing tired of these fans

That expect me to be some perfect version of a $#&@ing person
And it's hurtful
I just wanna feel i'm worth it


And it's hard but i'm learning to be honest
And discerning

And i am gaining all my courage to be better
I am searching


But it's so damn hard
To keep it calm when everything i known
Is broken and scarred

And i'm not trying to complain
About my problems at all
Because my problems

Are the reason i have gotten this far
So i am thankful for adversity
And making me strong

I'm just trying to explain
How i feel in a song
It goes


I really can't believe that
I'm really here right now

I'm hanging on an airplane
Falling through the airwaves in the clouds


I never ever want to touch the ground
I'm walking on a thight rope
Searching for the right note

Right sound

Let's take it back to '92 when i was eight

My brother gave me a tape by mistake
Dr. Dre
It was december 15th to the date

The chronic on my birthday
Must have been a fate


Now let's flash forward to the first time in '99
When i heard Shady on the radio and to my surprise
That this is really happening

A white boy is rapping
From the bottom to the top
That mother$#&@er made it happen


So i grabbed a pen and pad
And started writing down madness

Later joined a band
And wrote my song around my sadness
formulated all my tragic moments into magic

Now I'm selling tickets to my show and have 'em packed it

You best believe it cause i'm telling the truth

I bought a mother$#&@ing caddy and a house with a view
Don't need to prove that i'm amazing and I'm keeping it true
So before you try and hate me try to walk in me shoes

It goes

I really can't believe that

I'm really here right now
I'm hanging on an airplane
Falling through the airwaves in the clouds


I never ever want to touch the ground
I'm walking on a thight rope
Searching for the right note
Right sound


And after all that i've been through
I can say i've made it
Through the $#&@ing bull%#@!
To the other side safely

I can truly sai i can feel myself changing
Into a better person
Don't give a $#&@ if you can hate me
Never gonna let you take me down
That math i'm used to taking

And i know that in my hearts of hearts
The problem that i'm facing
Is in hald the battle that i'm fighting
Energy i'm wasting
I'm so sick of these $#&@ing (*##$es

Alway changing what i'm saying
Into something that it's not
Man this %#@! has got to stop
%#@! i'll wear the clothes i want
And i'll do it just to prove
I'm a mother$#&@ing boss

And my music keeps me moving
And i will not slow or pause
I'd like to think that i'm a-okay
And all my worries are so foolish
And will fade away
One day i'd like to think that
I faced my fate

And my legacy lives on,
You'll remember my name
And it goes

I really can't believe that
I'm really here right now
I'm hanging on an airplane

Falling through the airwaves in the clouds

I never ever want to touch the ground
I'm walking on a tight rope
Searching for the right note
Right sound



I really can't believe that
I'm really here right now
I'm hanging on an airplane
Falling through the airwaves in the clouds

I never ever want to touch the ground

I'm walking on a tight rope
Searching for the right note
Right sound
