#7 Caller: First time I saw him, I knew he had a star quality, he’s a superstar

Ayyo, here’s the whole story, the whole true, He’s retarded

Here’s how my whole bullshit career started

Back in '88 it was about battle rappin and shootin guns off

At house parties, say HO (BANG!BANG!BANG!) ???

before rhymin

No complainin, no money, no fame, still maintainin

1991, now my whole career started bustin

You seen on stage shows, guess the crowd jump in it Let the kids come on Tommy Boy, Mercury, Priority wanted me Russell Simmons, and 9 other record companies

Sendin limousines out to pick up my broke ass

Feedin me stakes, buyin me hookers, I hope that shit last

I was used to have no cash, I got gat

White trash, why they wanna sign my ass?

'92 the whole industry was on my dick

I signed to Jive Records, and fucked up the whole shit

You’re a shinin star

You’re a superstar

You’re a shinin star

You’re a superstar

Now I’m stuck on a wack label

They say, See the way you behave

Now wonder why the label hate you

They say He’s a beast, he’s a creature

Keep him in the other room, don’t let him see Aaliyah

Banned from the building, I don’t wanna see ???

He just don’t know how to play the game right

He could be larger than life

They try to turn the label caucasian

They signed me, Whitey Don and the Insane Clown Posse

And then they signed the Backstreet Boys and Britney

It’s a pop label, what the fuck they want with me?

Forget R. Kelly, I’ma do that rippin out your cunt shit

I flipped the fuck out and did some dumb shit

???

looked at me, I got a gun shit

I ain’t gonna give you that commercial run hit

Instead I gave you Every record label suck dick

Try to press charges against me Suited me, blackballed me My lawyer wouldn’t even call me You’re a shinin star

You’re a superstar

You’re a shinin star

You’re a superstar

You’re a shinin star

You’re a superstar

You’re a shinin star

You’re a superstar

'95, I’m broke out the ass, no doe

Watchin everybody else around me blow

Trackmasters, Mobb Deep, Keith Murray

Biggie and Puff, I’ll admit it, I was jealous as fuck

I was so pathetic

No doe under ugly chick

With a no doe fetish, all my old hoes jetted

Went from hearin You gon’be a star kid

To hearin He ain’t talented, he’s garbage

Now for shitty kicks there’s no market

'96, I got a gun now

I remember I was bout to kill Jeff Fenster

Moved back in with pop duke

And my handicapped brothers and sisters, and we had no loot

That’s when the Feds came by And surrounded the house

They had automatic weapons, and was pullin em out

And the moral of the story is All that glamour and glitz shit (what?)

Fuck that shit, I don’t need it You’re a shinin star

You’re a superstar

You’re a shinin star

You’re a superstar
