lyrics

{Verse 1}

I was warned of celebrity
Once it's born? Ya innocence dies
Its a war for integrity
Performing'll be the end of me
Im ignoring anymore befriending me
How you know me when i Barely remember me
Broads on all fours when they mention me
anything to get to me
Im an idea
but a person i cent forget to be, I fear
personal decay but not due to my character flaws or own faults
cuz the light sis brighter than time square
more bulbs more volts more camera lenses
ya last pose look something like Hammer's exit
So my entrance is humble as Fiasco's
No trumpet playing no brass blows
Assholes don't need telepathy you forewarned of celebrity

[Chorus]

Its the sound of the ages, markings on my miiiiiiiind


{Verse 2}

Famous, synonymous with shameless
Cant contain this you're number 2 from the anus
not just insane it's in vain since none of them dame you came with
will remain with
they just came for kicks make it rain bitch
but whats the rain quits then the games quit
and it back to the same shit
no gang to return to
you treated them the lamest (dang)
That when the pain hits
remembering the stars you used to hang with
they might be dealing with the same beast but tamed it
the whole road like photo ingrained in ya brain (shit)
wanna frame it but in the same sense
its the bane of your existence you cant change this
watching from a distance
long range from the ranges
Face it, its a sign of the ages


[Chorus]

Its the sound of the ages, markings on my miiiiiiiind


{Verse 3}

One for the money, two for the show
Three for the bunnies be-four ya know
5-0 rolling up 6 shooter in ya coat
ya done 7 deadly sins the eight wonder of the globe
no regard for law like ya got nine lives
you might get a few (life sentences) the wrong nigga dropped Chaka Khan
ya going through the fire
hood star good Lord
This aint the Wire
real beef never cheap see this aint Papayas
Niggas got priors aint tryna be lifers
You facing three strikes but you still wearing diapers
fallign for the hype might get the wrong Stripes (NICE)
now a good father you could never be
departed or behind bars you'll forever be
"You don't need to check the weather B"
I'll give you the forecast for celebrity
