If I were a lame Only just for a week I'd look myself in the mirror And shoot the first

thing I seen No honestly I'd try to find someone else And I'd make it seem like it's his fault That I'm broke and can't get on And he's doin shit I can't do for myself. [Chorus:] If I were a lame I'd probably understand How it feels to hate myself so much I gotta hate anotha man Shit I'd say that I'd Should be right in his place And talk shit behind his back When I'm smilin while I'm in his face Cause I'm just a lame. If I were a lame I'd talk shit to the hoes Like you shouldn't fuck with that nigga He ain't rich I heard he really broke I would get on a song And talk as bad as I can Bout how I wish I'd catch him slippin' How his mixtapes don't be shit And how I'm gone end his career But I'm his numbah one fan. [Chorus:] If I were a lame I'd probably understand How it feels to hate myself so much I gotta hate anotha man Shit I'd say that I'd Should be right in his place And talk shit behind his back

When I'm smilin while I'm in his face Cause I'm just a lame. It's killin me how niggas act anytime I come around No matter how much I do for myself They wanna bring me down But I juss gotta do me at the end of the day Cause I'm not a lame So I can't understand How it feels to hate myself so much I gotta hate another man No it ain't my fault My shit flies off the shelf So stop tryna be somebody And worry about juss bein yourself If you could juss be yourself And don't be a lame (Lame ass negroe) No don't be a lame (Lame ass negroe)
