Fake
STEREO.C.K Lyrics

Fake Support
The act of pretending to support someone when you don't truly believe in them.

The type of energy I hate court
I despise those who pretend to support me but their energy is fake and draining.

Prayed for answers
I sought guidance and answers from a higher power.

And he told me that’s what faith is for
The higher power I prayed to showed me that faith is for trusting the journey despite challenges.

You thinking me and mine
You are only focused on me and my success.

Im thinking we and ours
I am focused on our collective success and well-being.

Fake support that type of energy
Fake support is a draining type of energy.

I hate to
I hate pretending and being inauthentic.

Hold up
Wait a minute.

Somebody told me
I heard from someone.

They waiting for me to fall off
They are waiting for me to fail.

But he was the one
Ironically, the person waiting for me to fail was struggling themselves.

Sick and tired
I am exhausted and fed up.

It’s rare occasions I call off
I usually don't take breaks or rest.

I’m sicking tires
I am improving and persevering despite setbacks.

Watch half of ya face get Knalled off
I will defeat my opponents and critics with confidence and determination.

Never was appalled from lack of applause
I am not discouraged by a lack of recognition or praise.

Miss my shot
I failed once.

Rebound
I bounced back and kept going.

Got back on the ball
I resumed my hard work and effort.

Kicked while I was down
I was attacked and criticized when I was vulnerable.

With my back on the wall
I faced challenges and obstacles that made me feel trapped.

Now it’s no fronting on the check
I now have the money to back up my confidence and hard work.

When I’m back for it all
I am going after all my goals and ambitions.

The Walter white
I am a master at my craft and my work ethic is unmatched.

Of the welter weight
In my profession, I am an unstoppable force despite being smaller in stature.

They replicate the recipe
Others try to copy my techniques and methods.

But I got better taste
But I am unique and talented in my own way.

People telling me
Others are saying.

I’ll never be without a melody
I will always be successful and have a unique sound.

Hair die
Changing my appearance with hair dye.

A couple face tats and a felony
People are judgmental and quick to make assumptions about me based on my appearance and past mistakes.

Food for thought
An idea or concept to consider.

They eat the wings
People are only focusing on the superficial and not the deeper meaning.

But never he they celery
People are not taking full advantage of the opportunities presented to them.

Sugar diabetic
People are consumed with jealousy.

They the jelly up in jealousy
Their jealousy is causing them to act irrationally and aggressively towards me.

Emotions make them speak carelessly
Their emotions are affecting their judgment and causing them to speak without thinking.

I’m in control
I am in charge of my own life and destiny.

Dead beat daddy issues
My father was absent and it had a negative impact on my life.

Outchea chasing hoes
I was trying to fill a void in my life by sleeping with multiple women.

This that energy you waiting for
I know that there are people waiting for me to fail and criticizing me behind my back.

Broke niggas tell jokes
Those who are not successful themselves like to make fun of others.

That’s not the wage for war
Making fun of others is not productive or helpful in any way.

Excalibur
I am wielding a powerful weapon in my craft.

Decapitate and wave the sword
I will defeat my opponents with precision and skill.

Full plate
I am busy and have a lot on my plate.

Stacking paper
I am making a lot of money.

Still I crave for more A
Despite my success, I am constantly striving for more and working hard to achieve my goals.

Round here
In my environment or circle of influence.

We play for keeps
We are serious and competitive.

We don’t play for poor
We are not satisfied with mediocrity or lack of success.

They locked out
Others are not able to access the same opportunities as me.

We cut the measurements
We are precise and meticulous in our work.

And shave a door
We create new opportunities and avenues for success.

Add some lighting
We make things more attractive and appealing.

Television and some cable cords
We create an atmosphere of luxury and wealth.

Turn the lobby to ya party
We are able to turn any environment into a celebration of success and achievement.

Make them pay for ours
Others will have to pay to be a part of our success and environment.

Fuck all that fake support
I am fed up with people pretending to support me when they actually don't.

The reason im optimistic
I remain positive and hopeful despite setbacks and challenges.

Gifted with every thought
I am blessed with talent and creativity.

Been on my own since a nigga went and left the porch
I have been independent and self-sufficient since I was young.

Now when goldie lox come over we got extra portage
Now that I am successful, I am able to provide for myself and others.

No blue check on the gram but they be checking for it
People are interested and invested in my social media presence even though I don't have a verified account.

Presidential on the wrist no election for it
I have expensive and luxurious watches without needing to win an election or get a government job.

I know your type
I am aware of the type of person you are.

Niggas start willing
People become too eager and impulsive.

You wont even blow the dice
You are not willing to take any risks or make bold moves.

Forth Quarter blow my shoulder you wont even hold the ice
I am willing to take on the most challenging situations even if it means I will struggle or risk injury.

Married to the game now
I am fully committed and dedicated to my profession.

Every show we throwing rice
I am celebrating my success and achievements with my team and fans.

Shit
An interjection expressing frustration or anger.

Imma show you right
I am going to prove myself and succeed despite doubts and challenges.

Cassanova on the mic
I am a skilled and smooth performer on the microphone.

3 am in the Stu
I am working hard and late into the night in the studio.

This shit can happen over night
Success and recognition can come suddenly and unexpectedly.

Passion it don't when you aint even acting on it right
My natural talent and passion is not enough, I have to work hard and practice to improve and succeed.

Took a Laxative
I am unstoppable and will not be held back.

It aint no accident Im really nice
My talent and success is the result of hard work and dedication, not luck.

Fake smiles weak hand shakes the shit aint feeling right
I can tell when people are not genuine and sincere in their interactions with me.
