Fame

(album: Legend Of The Liquid Sword - 2002)

[Verse 1]
They was told not to ride in Patty's (Hearse)
and stay out of Charles' (Manson)
Took Abraham's (Lincoln) through the Todd (Bridges) espansion
Willis (Reid)s a map that marks the spot showin
On his left George (Burns) a blunt William's holdin
Tara (Bank)ed the money that Chaka (Khan)ed the poor
Alicia (Key)ed his car for givin Melbourne (Moore)
For the Redd (Foxx) who bought off the block, but though twice
As Debora (Cox) the gun 'cause she beat Kelly's (Price)
When Rosa (Park)ed the truck on the farm that Kim (Fields)
Linda (Tripp)ed for tryna to walk in Lauryn's (Hills)
Water dripped outta Farrah's (Fawcett) in the glass
She was "Superfly", Curtis (Mayfield) her ass
Chris (Tucker) to a show, Ted (Turner) to a hoe
Robert (Diggs) the beat, but ain't feelin the flow
But he signed it fast, for half of Johnny's (Cash)
(Nia Long)ed for the album to drop, cameras flashed
Tom (Sawyer) at the Lucielle (Ball) up at the foyer
He confronted Richard (Pryor) to hiring his lawyer
Suge's (Knight) removed the rook off the board
Donna (King) was checked and Al (Sharpton) the sword

"Wettin cream, I ain't wettin fame"
"Fame is the measure"
"Rap celebs"
"The place where stars are born"

[Verse 2]
The saints marched in, Kurtis (Blow)ing his horn
Tom (Cruise)d the boulevard, Chris (Rock)ed the song
For the hundredth time, they pressed rewind to the beginning
They toast to the rhyme, the juice spilt from John's (Lennon)
They took her to Elizabeth (Taylor) to dry clean
The lone seamstress, who was schemin on Al's (Green)
You know they shoot for the stars and buckwild
Like the kids in the yard who play with (Jane's Child)
A beautician laced Erykah's (Badu)
Sean (Comb)ed through the evidence, just to get a clue
The needle in the haystack, from outta earth this kid
The tiger would kill him once thrown in Brad's (Pitt)
Jesse (Owen) the money from the weed Bubba (Sparxxx)
They was journeys seen far as he walked in Dick's (Clark)
Jeffery (Lyons) stuck with a thorn from George's (Bush)
Paul (Pierce)d in the heart as the crowd pushed
Acting alone... Drew (Barrymore) bones
of the victims, three blocks from Jim's (Brownstone)
They shared the same bowl, he caught Natalie's (Cole)d
The producer, threw the butter on Esther's (Rolle)
Dempsey (Russel)ed him down, got his jaw wide
In a instant, Brooke (Shields) him from the gunfire
Angie (Stone)d him to death, with those vocals
Keith (Sweat) from the workout, just from runnin local

"With CREAM I ain't with the fame"
"Fame is the measure"
"Rap celebs"
"The place where stars are born"

[Verse 3]
Larry's (Bird) flew outta Nicholas' (Cage)
Joe (Tex) messages from Satchel's (Paige)
Betty (Wright) letters with ink from Sean's (Penn)
Infinite bars, you couldn't tell where the song end
Glenn (Close) enough to quickly duck the tapes
Richard (Gere) ripped while he was climbin Bill (Gates)
He was a southerner, posing as a, native New Yorker
The Jason (Kidd) took his first steps in Jimmy's (Walker)
He stayed on line chattin with rap celebs
Used Bernie's (Mack) to search Veronica's (Webb)
It cost them their life for the advice you gave
Now Pete (Rose) lay on Vanessa's (Redgrave)

"With CREAM I ain't with the fame"
"Fame is the measure"
"Rap celebs"
"The place where stars are born"
"With CREAM I ain't with the fame"
"Fame is the measure"
"Rap celebs"
"The place where stars are born"
