Lyrics Let Me Be Me - Hoodie Allen
(Verse)
Started
out
in
Brooklyn
back
in
'96
When
the
nets
were
still
in
jersey
but
we
loved
the
Knicks
I
didn't
grow
up
in
a
family
that
hugged
and
kissed
But
ain't
sayin
they
didn't
love
they
kids
we
ain't
some
republicans
And
all
I
wanted
was
a
pool
in
my
back
yard
They
say
we
couldn't
have
fun,
didn't
have
jobs
They
say
we
couldn't
pay
rent
couldn't
slack
off
Couldn't
pack
up
and
take
the
vacation
out
in
Nassau
Got
a
private
education
with
the
future
goin
sass
cats
Even
tried
to
duck
the
bill
collector
on
some
Aflac
They
got
rich
stacks
named
Garfield
that's
fat
cats
fat
cats
Send
me
frank
and
dean
I
got
my
rap
pack
rap
pack
So
don't
worry
bout
my
accent
You
life
your
life
in
past
tense
You
know
some
girls
you
best
friends
I
know
some
girls
we
have
sex
And
we
all
know
girls
that
do
drugs
And
we
all
know
girls
that
just
won't
But
I
know
they
waiting
for
me
when
I
come
home
(Hook)
I
don't
wanna
be
a
legend
I
just
wanna
get
to
heaven
I
just
wanna
do
me
right
now
Wanna
do
me
right
now
I
don't
wanna
be
a
killer,
no
I
just
wanna
keep
it
real-a
oh
I
just
wanna
do
me
right
now
Wanna
do
me
right
now
Let
me
be
me
(Verse)
They
say
make
it
out
my
home
before
it's
too
late
Love
my
mom
and
dad
but
I
don't
want
em
as
a
roommate
Got
a
kitchen
fulla
food
and
liquor
like
I'm
Lupe
But
y'all
fake
as
fuck
like
toupees,
So
I
see
the
world
in
blu
ray
High
Definition,
I'mma
Tivo
it
I
wanna
save
the
moment
and
show
that
I'm
devoted
Preach,
I'm
on
my
knees
like
I
Tebowed
it
I'm
just
a
young
kid
celebrating
like
reloaded
So
pardon
the
following
interruption
from
this
rap
shit
I'm
just
tryin
to
make
a
million
dollars
off
my
passion
That's
it
Guys
call
me
coach
now,
girls
call
me
captian
Feelin
like
Van
Dungy
cause
my
team
was
fuckin
Magic
But
back
when
I
ain't
had
shit,
no
food
up
in
my
cabinets
They
just
try
to
slow
me
down
but
I
won't
play
in
traffic
Got
passed
it,
ain't
a
beauty
contest
or
a
pageant
But
I
got
these
kids
flippin
like
gymnastics
(Hook)
I
don't
wanna
be
a
legend
I
just
wanna
get
to
heaven
I
just
wanna
do
me
right
now
Wanna
do
me
right
now
I
don't
wanna
be
a
killer,
no
I
just
wanna
keep
it
real-a
oh
I
just
wanna
do
me
right
now
Wanna
do
me
right
now
Let
me
be
me
(Bridge)
So
let
me
fly
away
Makin
my
mistakes
Its
harder
to
stay
all
in
the
same
place
You
never
say
you're
gonna
change
Let
me
float
away
let
go
of
my
weight
Cause
all
my
mistakes
don't
have
to
stay
Doin
all
that
I
can
don't
let
it
fade
(Hook)
I
don't
wanna
be
a
legend
I
just
wanna
get
to
heaven
I
just
wanna
do
me
right
now
Wanna
do
me
right
now
I
don't
wanna
be
a
killer,
no
I
just
wanna
keep
it
real-a
oh
I
just
wanna
do
me
right
now
Wanna
do
me
right
now
Let
me
be
me
