[Verse 1]
Been taunted, teased, mocked all my life,
Told I’ll never make it but I continue to write,
They grew up with wealth and fame,
While I was discovering my own name,
Never had anything handed to me,
Everything was earned in the honest degree,
Now they’re trying to extinguish my flame,
Bashing me on media playing dirty games,
[Pre-Chorus]
When did passion become a war,
Is this what I’m signing up for,
Honestly man I think I get it,
Start a fan cult just to make a profit,
[Chorus]
I’m just doing my best in a world full of hate,
Lost in corruption but it’s not too late,
Greediness doesn’t have to control or dictate,
I’ll start showing love won’t you reciprocate,
I’m just doing my best in a world full of hate,
“You’ll amount to nothing” look I changed fate,
Don’t need fame or money when I’m here to play,
Won’t you follow me and make the change,
[Verse 2]
Hey now don’t worry about what others say,
Do your best to show them you’re here to stay,
Got a few number ones now they wanna hang,
Yeah right, they only want to leach off you like their gang,
Remember to always stand your ground,
Never let others push you around,
Keep rising to the top and prove them wrong,
I hear something, haters are singing along,
[Pre-Chorus]
When did passion become a war,
Is this what I’m signing up for,
Honestly man I think I get it,
Start a fan cult just to make a profit,
[Chorus]
I’m just doing my best in a world full of hate,
Lost in corruption but it’s not too late,
Greediness doesn’t have to control or dictate,
I’ll start showing love won’t you reciprocate,
I’m just doing my best in a world full of hate,
“You’ll amount to nothing” look I changed fate,
Don’t need fame or money when I’m here to play,
Won’t you follow me and make the change,
[Bridge]
Oh look I’ve amounted to being greatness,
Manipulating everyone’s biggest weakness,
Sounds and rhymes of my preference,
Seek medical attention if you need a reference,
Went on a journey from loser to number one,
Proving them snobs you can start as a “bum,”
I’m ready to continue and be memorable,
Maybe I’ll sign with a real record label,
[Pre-Chorus]
When did passion become a war,
Is this what I’m signing up for,
Honestly man I think I get it,
Start a fan cult just to make a profit,
[Chorus]
I’m just doing my best in a world full of hate,
Lost in corruption but it’s not too late,
Greediness doesn’t have to control or dictate,
I’ll start showing love won’t you reciprocate,
I’m just doing my best in a world full of hate,
“You’ll amount to nothing” look I changed fate,
Don’t need fame or money when I’m here to play,
Won’t you follow me and make the change
