good enough
Singer: joe budden
uh
never good enough
baby nothin's ever good enough
uh
it's what? uh
nothin's ever good enough
hollywood
think he too good for us
nigga's emo
he ain't in the hood enough
how 'bout he's just misunderstood to us
vision is fine
i can still hear
so i pop one more 'til everything is unclear
cause why? nothin's ever good enough
i'm just lookin for somethin
good enough
wonder where his mind is
if everyone's impression is wrong then maybe mine is
jury's out
but the verdict's in
case ain't been heard
so how they murderin him?
i appear to be arrogant
that's what they instilled in me
took it as a weakness when i showed 'em humility
insensitive
don't waste time tryin to tell me
what emotions is - i'm emotionless
i can't explain it
it comes from home
make me uncomfortable and you gon' put me in a comfort zone
double is me
feel what i feel and know he's strugglin
be tryin to get depression and sufferin from me
when your head's cluttered with noise you get lost
am i isolated by choice or by force?
listen
the fuck y'all expect from me?
already given y'all the best of me
but it seem like!
nothin's ever good enough
hollywood
think he too good for us
nigga's emo
he ain't in the hood enough
how 'bout he's just misunderstood to us
vision is fine
i can still hear
so i pop one more 'til everything is unclear
cause
just one wasn't good enough
crushin it in rum wasn't good enough
the baddest girl wouldn't be good enough
all the cash in the world ain't good enough
cause you can go your hardest for your fans
but like you they only human so they may not understand that
i used to always try to be good enough
and couldn't figure out why i wasn't good enough
so instead of bein good enough
i just wan' be better
than good enough
the fruck's goin on around here?
contrivin and conformin is the norm around here
it's tension
speak up and violence gets mentioned
in the world where everybody gets by off silenced opinions
and so i cut the red tape and the politics
know it's there
i'm just the only nigga to acknowledge it
learn from the acts that came before ya and retain the lawyer
they told me
once you get the fame you get the paranoia"
