Be Somebody lyrics
Songwriters: Dioguardi, Kara; Shanks, John; Stewart, David A;
Joker Johnny
Was a lie teller
Oh, 'cause he thought somebody
Might like him better
So he built it up and built it up
'Til it all fell down
But he never thought the bitter truth
Was gonna find him out
And he did it all
To impress someone else
When all he really had to do
Was stop and be himself
Oh, now everybody
Wants to be somebody
Oh, yes it's true
No telling what
Some people will do
Well, now nobody
Wants to be a nobody
'Cause it's a far more bitter fame
To go through this life
Carryin' that weight
When they shoot somebody
For the clothes they wear
Then they'll advertise it
Like it's ordinary
They got territory
And so they stand their ground
But what they don't know is
What comes around
Comes right back around
What they really wanted
Is to be accepted
What you'll find out in the end
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/d/danny-gokey-lyrics/be-somebody-lyrics.html ]
Is the street is self-correcting
Oh, yeah everybody
Wants to be somebody
Oh, yes it's true
No telling what
Some people will do
Well, now nobody
Wants to be a nobody
'Cause it's a far more bitter fame
To go through this life
Carryin' that weight
Far more worse than dying
Is living with a soul
That's laden with the consequence
Of all the happiness you stole
Sometimes a guilty conscience
And carrying the pain
Is harder than a bullet to the brain
Everybody
Wants to be a somebody
Oh, yes it's true
No telling what
Some people will do
Oh, now nobody
Wants to be a nobody
It's a far more bitter fame
Everybody
Wants to be somebody
Oh, yes it's true
No telling what
Some people will do
Well, now nobody
Wants to be a nobody
To go through this life
Carryin' that weight
