Tired of watching my heroes fall…


Don’t be like me… Be Better
I’m sick of watching all my heroes fall
Mirror on the wall saying - Do Better



I got a message from a fan he told me he going through it
Lost his love and a loved one and said my music pulled em through it
Told me lines from songs he loved, what they meant to him, he still in school,
raps n wanna be like me... Whatever You do...
-DON’T BE LIKE ME-

Which is to say dont put me on pedestal
im watching heroes falling that I thought Id never Measure to
Another fan told me that he finally got his GED
I never did- we switched roles in turn he inspired me to
-DO BETTER-


Fashion Bummy, Had me Actin funny-
half the countries in my passport stamped for rappin for fans that love me, but I’m
Still chasing that high I felt as a teen buying a new washer & dryer for my Dads’ house w battle money

Might not mean much to you, but if u only knew
Them clean clothes felt like a mansion that had the ocean view
If only one outfit was clean, I might not go to school,
Wear it monday, skip til friday, wear it n hope no one knew
Whoo somethings are too real,
I’m in my bed like Dru Hill thinkin u dont speak how u feel then who will?
...Just trynna be better everyday
So Its not self deprecating when i say



Don’t be like me… Be Better
I’m sick of watching all my heroes fall
Mirror on the wall saying - Do Better
Don’t be like me… You can be better
I’m sick of watching all my heroes fall
Mirror on the wall saying - “Do Better”



I can’t be your hero, I can’t even save myself
I can’t be your hero, I can’t even save myself

I use to idolize rappers like super heroes, since day one
I would put my mask on and play them
Pac was like Clark Kent, Biggie was Bruce Wayne
We watched beef amongst A-1’s
The death of Super Man- I was way young
But where I came from
Being broke was a super power… I put my cape on
Watching my heroes fall…
Tired of watching my heroes fall
Now all I see’s their power weakening and chinks in their armor
Either that or I’m even stronger
Shit, I guess I finally became one
I guess it’s on me to save em
My bad that’s the villain Ego speaking, I can’t escape em
As Gotham falls, design a wall just to hide my flaws
Suit up like Kung Fu Kenny, T’Challa, Wakanda calls
Double R - X the professor to guide em all
Falling off, now he back on that kryptonite, It’s not his fault
Cause all that pressure busts pipes, addicted by default
Marshall locked in Arkham Asylum, outside is Martial Law
Donald like Dr. Claw or Thanos w the gauntlet on
Kanye dropped the ball cosigning a monster at comic con
Watchin my heroes fall… tired of watching my heroes fall
Before the rise and fall…
Don’t idolize me, not at all, I ain’t shit, signing off
P.S. …

Don’t be like me… Be Better
I’m sick of watching all my heroes fall
Mirror on the wall saying - Do Better
Don’t be like me… You can be better
I’m sick of watching all my heroes fall
Mirror on the wall saying - “Do Better”


Wish I could put Big L, in the Lazarus pit
Jakka’s handstyle in my blackbook brings me back to that trip
Cried when Bender died, Alexander Buchanan is missed
Wish I could turn this tat on my skin back into him

Tired of watching all my heroes fall….
Watching all my heroes fall…


Rest in peace to the fallen heroes
