Almost Famous

All these mouths, they just keep running.
Like venom in their veins, their words keep flowing.
Their minds so empty, their hearts so hollow.
They know nothing but the lies that they swallow...
    and spit out.
        Say what now?
My show is brand new and it's already sold out?
    That's what I'm talkin' bout.
        Don't stop now.
Let's keep this river flowing.

            I'm almost famous now.

I've got my head held high. My ego, it's soaring.
All this hate, it does nothing but keep my status growing.
Your goal to destroy me and ruin my name;
Baby you've gone about it all wrong, I'm getting high off this fame.
    So spit it out.
        Get the word out.
Cuz my show, it's brand new and it's already sold out.
    That's what I'm talkin' bout.
        Don't stop now.
Let's keep this river flowing.

            I'm almost famous now.

Yeah I've made a few mistakes. Hell, we've all done it.
I tried to make it right, but your thought process, well it's stunted.
You're filled with hate and anger, you can't see through the haze.
Instead of hurting me, you gave me more room to graze...
    and grow up.
        To stand up.
    Look at me now.
My show is brand new and it's already sold out.
    I've got clout.
        Don't stop now.
Keep your words flowing.
           
            I'm almost famous now.
