George Monastiriakos 400
Yo, I'm batting 4 hundred, people been talking
They said that I couldn't, came up from nothing
Single parent homes, struggles no one knows
Friends turn to foes, oh, you're one of those
Last of a dying breed, so,cI say it loud
People always find something to complain about
So what am I singing for, keep giving them more
Been around the world from Costa Rica to Singapore
I'll be here forever, ain't like my daddy
I've been dirty for a decade but you still don't understand me
Very serious, lesser men will belittle this
I'll die from reaching too high like Icarus
Never giving up, you should probably call the cops
I've still got the biggest dick on the block
No mistakes, they kiss the shoe when I show my face
I walk in the middle of the road like I own the place
Used to be the class clown, no chance now
I stand out like a black cloud
Troublemaker turned role model for the kids
People talking shit, that's water under the bridge
Street smart, educated, I'm no one's fool
In high school, I did the hard knocks, I didn't go to school
Young & rich, won't accept crumbs from your bowl of shit
Only put work in if I share ownership
You walked through the door, and already lost
I hear the cracks in your voice, and you're crossing your arms
Know-nothings told me intangibles were irrelevant
Got a whale's heart and the memory of an elephant
Bombs go off from Baghdad to Brussels
Academic, so I know the Every day struggle
Take the long way, avoiding all your shortcuts
Seen great seeds turn to weak trees ‘cause they grow soft
Success, blessings, always stay true
I can't be happy for me, if I'm not happy for you
I can't be happy for me, if I'm not happy for you
I can't be happy for me, if I'm not happy for you
I can't be happy for me, if I'm not happy for you
