~All That Fame~

I've traded this life as well as my name
So I'd have all the fame…

Got my name in flashing neon lights
Shining brightly through the nights…

I hit all the coolest bars
Drove the fanciest cars...

It's a life that’s cheep
I've lost so much sleep…

The thing about money
It isn't sweet like honey…

The greed
Kept me in such need…

All of Hollywood’s schemes
I got lost in so many dreams…

Crazy thoughts go through my head
As all of those drugs make me feel dead…

Fame isn't what I thought it would be
Now all I want is to be... ME!...
