Be There

Cause she's got a dream, but no one to call

And she chases stardom like it's just nothing at all

The harder she goes, the harder she falls

And I just want to be there, be there when she does

She's tryna find her soul in a part of the world that ain't really safe right now

Her mom and dad and family are struggling for money so she can't really wait right now

So she packs her bags in tears, yeah, she's tryna escape right now

Cause she looks around the class room at school and half the kids can't relate right now

Like damn, what you lookin' uncle sam?

Ain't nobody eva eva held my hand

I don't need medicaid nor food stamps

I'd rather strip down and give a good dance

Leave the stage and collect my cash

Times are rough yea these times are brash

So even if I do shake my ass... I get a pass

Cause she's got a dream, but no one to call

And she chases stardom like it's just nothing at all

The harder she goes, the harder she falls

And I just want to be there, be there when she does

Yo, fast forward a couple years, and now she's in that in crowd

Used to be cool with the local crew but it seems she's got new friends now

Cause she used to be broke in a honda accord, but now she's pulling that benz out

Used to be clean, but now she's a fiend for the dollars, and the euro's and the yens now

Like damn, out in hollywood she met a man

To the naked eye he's the man

But behind the scenes it's a shame

He likes to beat her up and use his hands

She loves this man but she fears this man

So her plan is to have no plan

She prays to the skies as she crosses her hands

Cause she wants to escape but she feels like she can't

Cause she's got a dream, but no one to call

And she chases stardom like it's just nothing at all

The harder she goes, the harder she falls

And I just want to be there, be there when she does
