Song: Say Goodbye Hollywood
Chorus X2
Sayin' goodbye, I'm sayin' good bye to Hollywood / Sayin' goodbye,
I'm sayin' good bye to Hollywood / Sayin' goodbye, I'm sayin' good
bye to Hollywood / Sayin' goodbye, I'm sayin' good bye to Hollywood
(Hollywood why do I feel this way?)
Verse 1
I thought I had it all figured out, I did, I thought I was tough
enough to stick it out with Kim/but I wasn't tough enough, to juggle
two things at once, I found myself layin' on my knees in cuffs/which
should've been a reason enough, for me to get my stuff and just
leave. How come I couldn't see this shit myself?/it's just me, nobody
couldn't see the shit I felt, knowin' damn well she wasn't gonna
be there when I fell/to catch me, the minute shit was heated, she
just bailed, I'm standin' here swingin' like thirty people by myself/I
couldn't even see the millimeter when it fell, turned around saw
Gary stashin' the heater in his belt/saw the bouncers rush him and
beat him to the ground, I just sold two million records, I don't
need to go to jail/I'm not about to lose my freedom over no female,
I need to slow down, get my feet on solid ground/so for now I'm...
Chorus X2
Verse 2
I, bury my face in comic books, cus I don't want to look at nothin',
this world's too much, I've swallowed all I could/If I could swallow
a bottle of Tylenol I would, and end it for good, just say goodbye
to Hollywood/I probably should, these problems are piling all at
once, cus everything that bothers me, I got it bottled up/I think
I'm bottomin' out, but I'm not about to give up, I gotta get up,
thank God, I got a little girl/and I'm a responsible father, so
not a lot of good, I'd be to my daughter, layin' in the bottom of
the mud/must be in my blood cus I don't know how I do it, all I
know is I don't want to follow in the footsteps/of my dad, cus I
hate him so bad, the worst fear that I had was growin' up to be
like his fuckin' ass/man if you could understand why I am the way
that I am, what do I say to my fans/when I tell 'em (I'm)...
Chorus X2
Verse
I don't wanna quit, but shit, I feel like this is it, for me to
have this much appeal like this is sick/this is not a game, this
fame, in real life this is sick, publicity stunt my ass, conceal
my fuckin' dick/fuck the guns, I'm done, I'll never look at Gats,
if I scrap, I'll scrap like I ain't never whupped some ass/I love
my fans, but no one ever puts a grasp on the fact, I've sacrificed
everything I have/I never dreamt I'd get to the level that I'm at,
this is wack, this is more than I ever coulda asked/everywhere I
go, a hat, a sweater hood, or mask, what about math, how come I
wasn't ever good at that?/It's like the boy in the bubble, who never
could adapt, I'm trapped, if I could go back, I never woulda rapped/I
sold my soul to the devil, I'll never get it back, I just wanna
leave this game with level head intact/Imagine goin' from bein'
a no one to seein', everything blow up and all you did was just
grow up mcing/It's fuckin' crazy, cus all I wanted was to give Hailie
the life I never had, but instead I forced us to live alienated/so
I'm sayin'...
Outro
Goodbye / Goodbye Hollywood (Goodbye) / Please don't cry for me
(It's been real) / When I'm gone for good (This shit is not for
me) / Goodbye / Goodbye Hollywood (I'm not a fuckin' star) / Please
don't cry for me (No way) / When I'm gone for good (I'm goin' back
home)
