Relativity

You really have to buy the placement It don't come for free I don't worry nothing 'bout exposure It never bothered me Top shelf in the popular culture By the flashing light TVs You can have everything you ever wanted now You can get it all for free To be the fly on the wall or the actor on the stage It's all relativity To be lost in the crowd or screaming out loud Depends on who you wanna be Raptured invisibility You really have to pay for that fame, don'tcha Three time's they make you pay Once just to get you in that door Twice, you pay it every day You pay all along the way God help you if you ever want out They charge you for that too Long before you can settle the account You'll find the bill is overdue I'm a flower on the wall I'm an actor on a stage It's all relativity I'm a hip-hop queen, a soul-tanked machine I get down and I get paid I get down and I get paid Truth is I'm a ghost sitting on the docks Trying to catch a tan trying to stay lost But I know just where I am And I know just what it costs I still feel the wind I still see The Cross I'm a fleur on the wall a poor player on the stage It's all relativity I'm a soldier on a field, a friendly fire kill I wait for Love to rescue me Waiting for Love to rescue me Come on Love and rescue me
