Bruce Wayne
Porta
Bruce Wayne
I have earned the right to wear a suit and tie
I toast with champagne, you with a mixed drink, I'm a gentleman
Hip hop, I have been able to feel how badly you treat me
I have a double life and one almost killed me, man
That's why I hide my true face
You are not ready to see it clearly, yet
If I were to slip up or if I were to tell you
The shit they made up might splash on them
Play your cards, I'll keep the aces
You couldn't buy so much class with all your money
They think they're teachers but lack education
Take a seat, I sense it's time for you to learn the lesson
This way you won't get me to promote you
Here your words don't count, only actions
I've grown up, I don't respond to provocations
They look for beef just for a handful of views
And there you see the human side
Would you tell personal things about close people?
I'm not toxic or corrosive
How can someone who only rhymes with infinitives teach me everything?
I value friendship even if it breaks
And I respect those who were once part of me
You will never see me speaking ill of a friend
Because we all would have ugly things to say
We all have two faces even if you don't admit it
I'm not looking for applause although others need it
Ladies and gentlemen, gentlemen and ladies
I'm not what hip hop wants but what it needs X2
I don't plan my days, I just flow
Sometimes ignoring seems like I'm running away
I think, 'each to their own path'
I just live and remove the ca from my life
You judge me and believe everything they tell you
But there's a lot behind that you don't know
When you look back, when you least expect it
If you grow, you'll see, here we are all Bruce Wayne
I'm worth more for everything I keep quiet
I'm not going to screw you over and I'll forgive your mistakes
I don't have to dim your light or harm you to shine
I don't play your games anymore, I'm approaching thirty
Less pretending and more judgment
If it's between you and me, don't involve anyone else
Be a bit more serious, seriously
Haven't you wondered why you haven't succeeded? 'what a mystery'
Honest, whatever happens, whoever it bothers
I keep the Judases away so they don't kiss me
They bring fast food, I bring delicacies
I only do rap, the gossip is for those interested
I'll keep the personal stuff to myself
I'm not going to go on social media to cry
I don't care at all what they might say
Here we all have ugly things to tell
We all have two faces even if you don't admit it
I'm not looking for applause although others need it
Ladies and gentlemen, gentlemen and ladies
I'm not what hip hop wants but what it needs X2
There are things that don't add up in much of that story
They say every pig has its St. Martin's day
You know life takes more turns than a Ferris wheel
I don't have to do anything, your karma will do it for me
I'm calm and at peace, I do it differently
I don't want to dirty my soul or my suit
Today I brought happiness to my palm
I don't advocate violence, indifference is my weapon
They dream of fame, I dream of losing sight of it
If I wear a mask, it's to not be the protagonist
I'm an idealist, I won't sell out
So my face can be on the cover of a magazine
Proud of not just being another opportunist
Everything I have achieved it on my own
And without doing anything dirty like many artists
Who need another just to try to rise
They call it interest, I know what you're trying to do
That's why today I bring a nice frame just for you
You're portrayed: You've always manipulated at will
I already apologized for every mistake if I was wrong
But I won't fall into the traps of those who come and go
You bite the hand that feeds you
I'll bear the blame and won't position the fan
When they lack reason, they just try to invent
We all have two faces even if you don't admit it
I'm not looking for applause although others need it
Ladies and gentlemen, gentlemen and ladies
I'm not what hip hop wants but what it needs X2
