Umm, yeah

[Chorus]
Everybody gotta be something (Uh)
Everybody wanna be something
Be something, don't be nothing (Uh)
Everybody gotta be something (Yeah)

Everybody gotta fuck somebody (Yeah)
Love somebody, don't fuck anybody (Uh)
Everybody gotta be something

[Verse 1]
Look, it's like quiet as kept, I been the sickest for a sec (Uh)
I never been pressed for all the cameras and the press (Uh)
I'm not the type of guy that be wildin' for respect (Uh)
I'd rather be wildin' for a check (Yeah)
I'm doing that now to manifest, (Uh) I got my head right and it's blessed (Blessed, blessed)
Yeah, the rap game like checkers and chess
And tryna make a monopoly, (Uh) I got a lot of mess
But it's cool, I'ma test it (Yeah)
Got my choice route, I'm destined for greatness (Yeah, yeah)
Patience is cool, I had to learn that too (Yeah, yeah)
I had got kicked out of school like, "N***a, fuck y'all rules" (Yeah, yeah)
And them n***as that snitched on me, yeah, it's fuck y'all too
My momma hit a n***a (Yeah) phone like "What the fuck y'all do?" Nothing (Nun)
I just finesse, I'll give 'em back all they little money (They little money, but)
But everybody gotta juug somebody, (Yeah) huh

Everybody gotta be something (Yuh)
Everybody wanna be something
Be something, don't be nothing (Yeah)
Everybody gotta be something (Uh)

Everybody gotta fuck somebody (Fuck somebody)
Love somebody, don't fuck anybody (Anybody)
Everybody gotta be something

[Verse 2]
Look, they asked me (Yeah) "What's my sound"? I tell 'em nothing particular
I'm blowing this purple 'til I feel perpendicular
My flow crash like homicide vehicular
Leave a n***a's brain at the scene, sign for signature (Yeah)
Kicking rhymes as I'm flipping through the pages of literature (Uh)
Literally, I'm the shit, what you having for dinner?
Born to win but born a sinner, and that's word to Jermaine
Cold flow, Cole World, but we living the same
I was standing in the hall, we was listening to Dame
He was schooling some n***as, putting them up on some game
I'm ear hustling, hoping my n***as doing the same
Shit, that he saying, my brain strain, combust into flames
He dropped gems 'bout life and getting up in the game
Or getting fucked in the game and how it's really kinda tough to complain (Yeah, yeah, woah)
When you can be what you want, it not really much to explain (Yeah, uh)
So fuck that, hustle for cream and go for the dream (Yeah, yeah, uh)
[Chorus]
Everybody gotta be something
Everybody wanna be something (Yeah)
Be something, don't be nothing (Uh)
Everybody gotta be something (Yeah)
Everybody gotta love somebody (Love somebody)
Everybody gotta fuck somebody (Yeah, fuck somebody)
Love somebody, don't fuck anybody
Everybody gotta be something (Yeah)

[Outro]
There were so many people comin' outta that mall and we were tired
I said, "We can just go on and sit down in the car and just wait for everybody."
I had the window like halfway down because you just had your little chin just lookin'
Then your dad came- Your daddy came to the car and he sat down
Then, so, we were sitting out there and you were just look- You were turning and lookin', turnin' your head way out the window
All of a sudden you looked over and you saw a whole group of people comin' your way and you said "Look at all them mothafuckas."
"What did you say?" I looked at your dad and he looked at me
You said it again the same- same way you said it before like it wasn't- I thought it was a mistake or maybe I misunderstood you. C'mon "Look at all them mothafuckas."
