Doesn't mean I didn't get what I deserved No better and no worse
I just got lost
Every river that I tried to cross
Every door I ever tried was locked
Oh and I'm just waiting 'til the shine wears off
You might be a big fish
In a little pond
Doesn't mean you've won
'Cause a long may come A bigger one
And you'll be lost
Every river that you tried to cross
Every gun you ever held went off
Oh and I'm just waiting until the firing stopped
Oh and I'm just waiting 'til the shine wears off Aha, I gotcha, uh
With the same sword they knight you They gon' good night you with ****, that's only half if they like you
That ain't even the half what they might do
Don't believe me, ask Michael See Martin, see Malcolm See Biggie, see Pac, see success and its outcome See Jesus, see Judas
See Caesar, see Brutus, see success is like suicide
Suicide, it's a suicide If you succeed, prepare to be crucified
Media meddles, ****** sue you, you settle Every step you take, they remind you you're ghetto
So it's tough being Bobby Brown To be Bobby then, you have to be Bobby now And the question is, "Is to have had and lost Better than not having at all?" Because I'm Oh and I, just waiting 'til the shine wears off
Oh and I, just waiting 'til the shine wears off
