Nush - Fake Artist? Lyrics

I'm a fake artist?
Lemme explain what my craft is

Been writing music for 7 years
It's therapy for when I'm in tears
Rapping is new to me but I've take to it, it's a blessing

There are two halves of me
One in doubt and the other keeps me alive
It would be easy to be unremarkable
Unoriginal, a boring speck, floating on a path like a particle
Live a normal life and not make music or dance
Get good grades, go to work, live life in a trance
But that shit would be boring, jarring and irreversible
And that's just not me

I'm a fake artist?
Lemme explain what my craft is
Singing and rapping for the masses
I keep it authentic 24/7
I'm not a fake artist, I keep it real
Bitch I'm the motherf*cking real deal
F*ck outta here if you don't know me
The love is stronger, keeps me free
You know you made it when you got haters
You know you made it when you got haters

Been performing since I was 5, don't get it twisted
Practice so hard my hands and feet have blisters
Got no religion but I'm still religious
Music is my escape, my god, my interest
For someone to call me fake and resort to name-calling
Oof that shit had me steaming, didn't know the chick and it's truly appalling
I had a response but i deleted it
I don't need to prove to you that I'm the shit

Social media is a gift and a curse
I'm not sure what's worse
The fact I don't know you or a friend had me informed
Or the way you attacked me made you sound deformed
Ugly on the inside, displaying your true colours
It's shame cause you're talented and we could have been friends with one another
But you f*cked it

I'm a fake artist?
Lemme explain what my craft is
Singing and rapping for the masses
I keep it authentic 24/7
I'm not a fake artist, I keep it real
Bitch I'm the motherf*cking real deal
F*ck outta here if you don't know me
The love is stronger, keeps me free
You know you made it when you got haters
You know you made it when you got haters

I don't like beef, I'm a sensitive soul
But misunderstand me, I'll make you understanding me my goal
This isn't a call-out or a diss track
Just letting you know I don't crack

This shit didn't break me
Cause I know who I am
A true artist
Shout-out to the day ones and everyone that supports me
You keep me going through dark days
Everyone single one of you are before all else, baes

I did this just cause I can
Its ok if by the end of this, you're still not a fan
Cause I make music for me
Cover songs that inspire me
Keep the royalties in check
Cause I don't steal or regret
Every movement
I'm in overdraft trying to keep my passion alive
The drive I have keeps my heart beating

I'm gonna keep going
Keep growing
Keeping showing you that I'm the best of the best
There is no contest, cause I'm unique
Part of me wonders what's so great
But I love being a freak
And that's in the streets and the sheets

I'm a fake artist? Yeah dream on
