Supa Dupa Star
Group Home Lyrics

Born in the ghetto it's hard to survive
Life is hard for those born in poverty

Some have achieved and many brothers tried
Some people have succeeded where others have failed

But I realized which life to choose
I made a choice about the kind of life I want

I wanna make money so I gotta pay dues
I want to earn money, but I know I have to work hard for it

But there's no rules and you only have one chance
There are no guarantees in life and you only get one opportunity to succeed

If ya fuck up kid you face the circumstance
If you make a mistake, you will have to deal with the consequences

At night I use to scream and shout
I used to feel frustrated and helpless

Livin' in the ghetto trying to get the hell out
I lived in poverty and struggled to escape it

So I would try as I watch my friends die
I did my best to succeed even as others around me suffered

But all I could do was sit back and cry
Despite my efforts, sometimes I felt helpless to change the situation

These are feelings I'm expressing through my rhymes
I am using my music to express my emotions and experiences

I been through hard times so many problems on my mind
I have faced significant challenges and have a lot on my mind

I wasn't living rich and I also wasn't poor
I was somewhere in between, not wealthy but not destitute

I try to appreciate but I deserve more
I appreciate what I have, but I believe I deserve greater success

Yeah superman supa star
I want to be a superstar like Superman

Give me super fat dough like Pablo Escobar
I want to be very wealthy, like the notorious drug lord Pablo Escobar

"Super duper star"
I want to be a hugely successful and famous musician

Feared by bandits hated by chicks
I am respected by dangerous people and disliked by some women

Loved by kids I never did a bid
Children like me and I have not served time in prison

Yes the Group Home is thick
My group, Group Home, is strong and successful

Plus I don't eat beef cause get dizzy if ya think shit is weak
I don't eat beef because it makes me lightheaded, not because I think it's a weak choice

Yo I work hard and hard my man trace it down to the car
I work very hard and can show the results in the car I drive

After that keep it movin' have no time to be foolin'
I don't waste time and always keep moving forward

Around town A&R's you get down with the hype sound
I promote my music and hype up the sound to get attention from A&R executives

The things I say will make a grown man dream
My lyrics are powerful and can inspire even the most hardened person to dream

I speak sayings "Go by yourself, be by yourself"
I encourage people to find their own path and not always rely on others

Let my lyrics vibrate and shake the earth
My music is powerful and can have a significant impact

I travel ghetto to ghetto back streets to the street
I tour through different neighborhoods to connect with fans

Kick a rhyme or crime with this ill mastermind
I use my skills as a musician to make a statement, whether positive or negative

Mom dukes use to tell me with these tears in her eyes
My mother used to give me emotional advice

Now I'm out on my own survival with the dime
I am now making my own way in the world with limited resources

Like an African tribe little Dap will blow your mind
I am like a powerful leader from an African tribe who can impress even the toughest critics

Check it out like this
Listen up, pay attention

And then like that
Without warning or pauses, things can change abruptly

"Super star"
I want to be a successful and popular figure in the music industry

"So what the fuck y'all movin' on up" -Melachi
Why are you all trying to advance ahead of me, asks Melachi

"Yes the Group Home is thick so all y'all punks hear this"
My group, Group Home, is strong and successful, so listen up

"Yo check it check it out like this here we go"-Melachi
Listen up as Melachi takes over, he's about to drop some knowledge

Walkin' the tunnels of hell the next level
I am going through a tough time, but I'm ready to face it head-on

It's the Nutcracker givin' hell to the devil
I'm challenging my obstacles and overcoming them

Playin' the game the New York pain
I am participating in the larger struggles of life

Makes me wanna bust but I just maintain
I am able to control my emotions even in tough situations

Cause now-a-days I talk to a brother
I have learned to communicate with others in order to make progress

Always love your mother cause you'll never get another
I recognize the importance of family and the role of a mother in particular

In the streets bustin' off shots fuck the cops
I am in conflict with the police and am willing to use violence to defend my beliefs

I got super small props
I am not yet successful, but I am working hard to get there

Big time doe, money is a thriller
I am aiming for significant financial success

I'm gettin' more iller than the Zodiac killer
I am improving and becoming even better as I continue to make music

No lie but before I say bye
I am speaking truthfully before I leave

You can't take money with cha when you die
Money is not everything and will not follow you after death

Yo I got niggas flipping they wig
My music is so good it can make people go crazy

Chicks grabbing they cunts
Women are so intoxicated by my lyrics they are physically reacting

As they rhyme they get doper and then they greet me with blunts
Other musicians are inspired by my music and want to collaborate with me

One times for your mind before I brake these streets
I want to inspire my listeners before I leave and continue my music career

Ain't nothing holding me back hip hop track
I will not let anything stop me from succeeding in music

Yo son you know the feelin' shit will get revealed
Those who listen to my music can relate to my emotions and experiences

As the times will get better
Things will improve over time

And you know I got skills
I am skilled and talented as a musician

I seen the days turn into nights
I have experienced long, difficult days and nights in my life

As the stars shine bright
Even in the darkness of night, there is still hope for a better future

Motherfuckers Moet and chicks they keep steppin'
I am surrounded by luxury and success in the music industry

Like Dom Perignon one day will live large
I will one day enjoy the luxuries of success

Word to Allah and it don't seem hard
I believe in divine intervention and that success is possible for me

No more jealousy and envy
I am not jealous of others' success and do not let envy hold me back

Curse is put apon me
I have been negatively affected by spiritual or emotional curses

Watch me live free at the clink
I will be free and successful, even if others tried to hold me back

With my niggas you'll see
I am loyal to my friends and collaborators

Raising to the top like a rocket ship, yo I go far
I am determined to succeed and become as famous as a rocket ship launched into space

"Super star"
I am confident in my ability to become a successful and influential musician

"So what the fuck y'all movin' on up" -Melachi
Melachi is still questioning why others are trying to advance without him

"Yes the Group Home is thick so all y'all punks hear this"
Once again, Group Home is strong and successful and others should pay attention to them

"So what the fuck y'all movin' on up"
Why are others trying to leave me behind?

"Yo check it check it out like this here we go"-Melachi
Melachi is taking charge again and about to drop some knowledge
