Trick Daddy - I Wanna Sang Lyrics
[T] Whassup little man, what's wrong wit'chu?[T] Why you lookin so sad - what's wrong?Man, I went to school todayand the teacher said I couldn't be no rapper[T] Say what? Why she tell you that?She told me I had to be somethin, that's more realisticlike I could actually be, like a construction worker or somethin[T] Man, construction workers ain't realistic man[T] You can't be out there done sawin all day, boy it's hot out there[T] Man, just keep on goin to school, get your education[T] That way, you can be anything you WANT to be[Chorus: sung]I just wanna sing, can I, sing you a songI bet you'll love it (I just wanna sing) yeah yeah yeah(I-I ain't askin for much)[T] Well go 'head thenI just wanna sing, can I, sing you a songI bet you'll love it (I ain't askin for much)[Trick Daddy]Listen; I just wanna make music, I just wanna verse or twoIn fact, man, I wanna be a rapper tooAnd I could probably sing the bluesCause I got problems too, plus I growed up in the projects tooWell can you put me on your soundtrack?Cause I got a good theme song that Betty Right could probably sing onYo, I just want a chance at stardomI just wanna be more than a thief or robbinWell, what about a remix? And I could probably make the beatand get it done all in less than a weekAnd make it clean for the radio, so the kids could watch the videoYo, but y'all don't hear me doeMan, I just want a crack at itIf I fail I'll be back, cause I refuse to be a crack addictI wanna prove the critics wrongWhat started off with a poem done turned it into a songNow I'ma sing it for you[Chorus w/ minor variations][Trick Daddy]Listen to me! I wanna be a legend one day, that wayI can be put in the same category with Barry White and Marvin GayeAnd have a tribute dedicated to meSell platinum records and win Grammys so that the world can seeyou could be anything that you want to bePlay sports or make music, just put your mind to itAnd yo, I ain't the typical 'American Idol'But when I'm done, I'm sure the boy Simon'll like meEverybody can't act rap, and no matter how real the dream seeme'rybody can't singBut, there's another Michael Jordan or Tiger Woodssomewhere right in the hood, plusYo you ain't never seen a, meaner teamof tennis players than Venus and SerenaSo, it's people like that that helped people like meAnd they gave me the courage to sing, so I'ma sing it for ya[Chorus w/ minor variations][Trick Daddy]I wanna do commercial and TV showsI wanna blow and sell records like the BeeGees soldAnd I don't really need a chaffeur, I don't need a maid or a cookJust a vacumn cleaner and coastersAnd I can cook and clean for myself - with the right promo teamI feel, I can really do big things, andI could probably write me a bookWith all the stuff I got to tell 'em, it's got to be a best sellerAnd it's way deeper than a Coke and a smileWhy go to schools when the teachers ain't helpin us out?My art teacher drive a Benz but he ain't bein artisticI got music second period but the class won't listenI wanna sing[Chorus w/ minor variations][Trick Daddy over Chorus as it repeats]So, to all the kidsAll the mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers of the worldY'know? Our kids need encouragementWe need a reason, y'knahmsayin?Let's show 'em somethin, let's give 'em somethin to look forward toSo all you teachers that ain't doin your job, y'all step asideCause I got a little brother and sister that's gon'grow up one day and be a teacher, and she gon' actually TEACH somethinY'know? She gon' make it worth comin to school y'know?It's deeper than free lunch nowI just wanna singI used to be just like youBut thank God, we got greater later
