Be Somebody Kevin Gates 

People ask me why I wear that towel on my head
I be tellin' 'em, I wear that towel on my head where I represent the assets
And we just feel, niggas with the towel, wear it on our head to keep ourself cool

Pain and suffering, experience my whole life
Used to pray to God, but He probably won't reply
Could you send someone to me if you don't mind?
Stay by my side and stick it out for the long ride

Have you ever needed somebody?
Tired of being broke and want to be somebody
My heart too genuine, sometimes feel I wasn't built to love
Victim of this cold world, nigga, difficult to trust

My mother died when givin' birth to me, they brought her back
Immaculate conception, to be absent from the body is to be in holy prison
All the angels, stars around her when somebody mention Kevin
Guess it can't be no coincidences that it rhyme with heaven

Everybody hatin' me, black shit, narcotic
Tellin' what you want, every time I go to jail, ain't do no tellin'
Grandma put her arms around me, told me be more careful
Used to feel like I was cursed, now I know my worth, I know better

I said high, but I look low, and all of mine gon' be protected
Could you do me a little favor if you're listenin' to this message?
Don't you ever let nobody tell you ain't no blessing
Don't you ever let nobody tell you you ain't special

Have you ever needed somebody?
Tired of being broke and want to be somebody
My heart too genuine, sometimes feel I wasn't built to love
Victim of this cold world, nigga, difficult to trust

Wrote a hell of more, but I guess he ain't get the love
System got me, Luke is wrong, he been gone since I was 11
Every lawyer say he comin' home, it gets so depressin'
Meanwhile the family's stressin', tryin' to put it back together

Just a pair of children grown now, instead of asking questions
And they look at me for answers, and I don't know what to tell them
God looks so much like mine, just gave me rhyme for a second
Told him: Mommy, you ever need me, bump the line, and I'ma zealot

Better know I spread my wings, you surrounded by the belt
You better know I'm a big eagle if you're listenin' to this message
Don't you ever let nobody tell you ain't no blessing
Don't you ever let nobody tell you you ain't special

Pain and suffering, experience my whole life
Used to pray to God, but He probably won't reply
Could you send someone to me if you don't mind?
Stay by my side and stick it out for the long ride

Have you ever needed somebody?
Tired of being broke and want to be somebody
My heart too genuine, sometimes feel I wasn't built to love
Victim of this coma, make it difficult to trust

Victim of this coma, make it difficult to trust
Victim of this coma, make it difficult to trust
Make it difficult to trust
