We Skeem - The Best Lyrics

All these rappers out here saying that they are the best
I don't know about all that all I know is I'm depressed
I need some rest should I confess what led me to this mess
Well I digress I talk too much I'll blame it on the stress
Listen here let me make it perfectly clear
To anybody who has got the ears to hear
I know I'm not the man and I know my voice is weird
I know not much would change if I went and disappeared
I'll say it once more I'm not ill I'm not the greatest
And everybody sees that I am miles away from famous
I'd like to say I'm stainless but some things can't be removed
So instead I remain nameless and just hope I can improve
I'll always be considered but I'll never get picked
Took the buzzer beater and you know that it bricked
Ain't the author of the story the plot isn't about me
I'm a speck lost in the glory of a perfect destiny

Searching for acceptance in the midst of my rejection
Lurching from repentance as I twist in imperfection
I wanted to be something but the mirror was not reflective
It's haunting being nothing but my fear has brought perspective
Searching for acceptance in the midst of my rejection
Lurching from repentance as I twist in imperfection
I wanted to be something but the mirror was not reflective
It's haunting being nothing but my fear has brought perspective

When my bank accounts are empty and support is gone
When this amounts to just another unknown song
I'll be begging to be heard with no power in my name
'Cause I do not lead the herd there's so much better in this game

The list goes on and on and don't forget about the mainstream
Get the gist I'm not on top no not even when I dream
If I'm being honest well my beats are kinda wack
I guess that's why I didn't make one for this latest act
I've emptied out my heart on stage but no one was around
If an artist sings without a crowd did they even make a sound
I'm not the only one who's had a dream beyond their reach
Drifting through the ocean but you'll never find the beach
I'm just a guy who hopes that I relate to all the rest
The ones who cry and though they try they know they're not the best

Searching for acceptance in the midst of my rejection
Lurching from repentance as I twist in imperfection
I wanted to be something but the mirror was not reflective
It's haunting being nothing but my fear has brought perspective
Searching for acceptance in the midst of my rejection
Lurching from repentance as I twist in imperfection
I wanted to be something but the mirror was not reflective
It's haunting being nothing but my fear has brought perspective

No no no
I refuse to just stand by
I'm not gonna be the one who just waits to die
I don't gotta be the best to be okay with all this mess
I don't gotta beat them and I don't need to impress
Because I may not be perfect but I'll still be me
If they don't think I am worth it well that is not on me
Rise up with me now all the outcasts left behind
I'm talking every single person who feels like less inside their mind
This is our life our song our time our rhymes
Live life dressed to the nines and leave them to their dimes
No we're not the best but we don't need that as a goal
'Cause together we invest and we can make each other whole

Searching for acceptance in the midst of our rejection
Lurching from repentance as we twist in imperfection
We wanted to be something but the mirror was not reflective
It's haunting being nothing but our fear has brought perspective
Searching for acceptance in the midst of our rejection
Lurching from repentance as we twist in imperfection
We wanted to be something but the mirror was not reflective
It's haunting being nothing but our fear has brought perspective
