(Feat. Matthew Santos)
2
[Crowd cheering]
3
[Chorus - Matthew Santos]
4
If you are what you say you are, a superstar
5
Then have no fear, the camera's is here
6
And the microphone's
7
And they wanna' know oh oh oh oh (The Return)
8
If you are what you say you are, a superstar
9
Then have no fear, the crowd is here
10
And the lights are on
11
And they want a show oh oh oh oh, yeah
12
[Verse 1 - Lupe Fiasco]
13
Yeah, uh
14
A fresh cool young Lu'
15
Tryna' catch his microphone check 2, 1, 2
16
Wanna' believe my own hype but it's too untrue
17
The world brought me to my knees, what have you brung you?
18
Did you improve on the design? Did you do somethin' new?
19
Well ya' name ain't on the guest list, who brung you?
20
You! The more famous person you come through
21
And the s*** lady next to you, you come too
22
And then it hit me
23
Standin' outside of heaven waitin' for god to come and get me
24
I'm too uncouth
25
Unschooled to the rules and too gum shoe
26
Too much of a new comer and too un-cool
27
Like Shadow and Lavelle, I battle wit' it well
28
Tho I need holiday like lady who sung "Blue"
29
Go back, whatever you did you undo
30
Heavy as heaven
31
The devil on me, two ton's too
32
[Chorus - Matthew Santos]
33
If you are what you say you are, a superstar
34
Then have no fear, the camera's is here
35
And the microphone's
36
And they wanna' know oh oh oh oh, yeah
37
[Verse 2 - Lupe Fiasco]
38
And ya' better wear ya' shaaades
39
The spotlights here can burn holes through the staaage
40
Down to the basement pass the Indian graves
41
Where the dinosaurs laid
42
Then out through shinin', nearly miss the airliners
43
Magnified times five, 'less it's pointed at the rhymer
44
Ricochets off the moon and sets the forest ablaaaze, woo!
45
Now that's important to say
46
'Cause even with all that most of us don't want it to faaade
47
We want it to braid, meaning we want it to grow
48
Meaning we want it to staaay
49
Like the Governor called and he told him to waaait
50
Un-strap him from the chair and put him back in his caaage
51
The audience ain't faaazed
52
And they ain't gon' clap and they ain't gon' praise
53
They want everything back that they've paid
54
'Cause they've been waitin' since ten to see the lights get dim
55
[Chorus - Matthew Santos]
56
If you are what you say you are, a superstar
57
Then have no fear, the crowd is here
58
And the lights are on
59
And they want a show oh oh oh oh, yeah
60
[Verse 3 - Lupe Fiasco]
61
So chauffeur chauffeur come and take me away
62
'Cause I've been standin' in this line for like five whole days
63
Me and security ain't getting' along
64
And when I got to the front, they told me all of the tickets were gone
65
So just take me home where the mood is mellow
66
And the roses are grown, M&Ms are yellow
67
And the light bulbs around my mirror don't flicker
68
Everybody gets a nice autograph picture
69
One for you and one for your sister
70
Who had to work tonight but is an avid listener
71
Every songs her favorite song and mics don't feedback
72
All the reviewers say "You need to go and see that"
73
And everybody claps 'cause everybody is pleased
74
And then they all take the stage and start performin' for me
75
Like, ha ha ha ha ha
76
Ha ha ha ha ha, ha
77
[Chorus - Matthew Santos]
78
If you are what you say you are, a superstar
79
Then have no fear, the camera's here
80
And the microphone's
81
And they wanna' know oh oh oh oh
82
If you are what you say you are, a superstar
83
Then have no fear, the crowd is here
84
And the lights are on
85
And they want a show oh oh oh oh, yeah
86
If you are, what you say you are
87
Then have no fear
