Rather Be Myself Lyrics – Russ & Jake One

RATHER BE MYSELF LYRICS:

Yeah
Shoutout Jake One
I’m glad I’m me Yeah

Lotta fake shit goin’ on,
I could choose to play along
But I’d rather be myself (Yeah)

I could try to be like them
probably get further ahead
But I’d rather be myself (Yeah)

People sellin’ out for fame
or for dollars and some change
But I’d rather be myself (Yeah)

Now I’d be lyin’ if I said
It never crossed my mind, but check, man
I’d rather be mysеlf (yeah, yeah)

I play forеver dawg
I’m focused on longevity
I try to run my race
and not care about who’s ahead of me ’cause

Comparison is the recipe
for depression and questionin’ your integrity
Hope I don’t let it get to me but

Some days are easier than others (True)
Caught up in the numbers
make you greedier than others
So I try to just detach
before my ego gets attacked
And starts to plan out its response
and do some shit I can’t take back

Lotta fake shit goin’ on
I could choose to play along
But I’d rather be myself (Yeah)

I could try to be like them,
probably get further ahead
But I’d rather be myself (Yeah)

People sellin’ out for fame
or for dollars and some change
But I’d rather be myself (Yeah)

Now I’d be lyin’ if I said,
It never crossed my mind, but check, man
I’d rather be myself (For real)

Yeah, don’t wanna compromise
even if it’s popularized
Even if nobody knows
I gotta face my momma, I

Don’t want the accomplishments
if it’s via fraudulence
Can’t even be proud of that
tell ’em how you got the shit

Yeah, different language
we not speakin’ the same (We not)
Couple million for my soul
that’s not an even exchange

My soul don’t shine when I hear it
You not fly if they steer it
I don’t care about the look
it don’t align with my spirit

Lotta fake shit goin’ on
I could choose to play along
But I’d rather be myself (Yeah)

I could try to be like them
probably get further ahead
But I’d rather be myself (Yeah)

People sellin’ out for fame
or for dollars and some change
But I’d rather be myself (Yeah)

Now I’d be lyin’ if I said
It never crossed my mind,but check, man
I’d rather be myself (For real)

Yeah, don’t wanna compromise
even if it’s popularized
Even if nobody knows
I gotta face my momma, I

Don’t want the accomplishments,
if it’s via fraudulence
Can’t even be proud of that,
tell ’em how you got the shit
