Do You Have The Stamina - B.o.B
[Intro: sample from Kanye West's "Pinocchio Story"] "Do you really have the stamina? For everybody that sees you that say, 'Where's my camera?' For everybody that sees you, to say sign a autograph For everybody that sees you cry, and say you oughta laugh You oughta laugh!" [Chorus: Kanye West sample (B.o.B)] "Do you really have the stamina?" (Do you have the stamina) "For everybody that sees you that say, 'Where's my camera?'" (Where's my camera) "For everybody that sees you, to say sign a autograph" (Sign an autograph) "For everybody that sees you cry, and say you oughta laugh" (You oughta laugh) "You oughta laugh!" [Verse 1: B.o.B.] Well, posing for pictures and living on a poster The hardest thing for me is to keep my compsure I ain't always happy, and I ain't always sad But when the spotlight is on, you have to handle the task And even the people who swear they love so bad A go and put your dirty laundry on the cover of mags Then everyone sees it and gets a good laugh And now your whole persona is just a thing of the past Now, when people see they ignore all the pain They only think about the rumors and mistakes you made So that's why I don't read all the comments on the blogs Everybody's a fan if you boo or applaud Now give me your energy, even if you're my enemy Or trying to be friends with me, aggressively or timidly Put my next to anyone in this industry You still will never find someone that's in my league [Chorus] [Verse 2: B.o.B.] Celebrity this, celeberity that Reality TV fiends addicted like crack and smack My business is rap, and my business is politicing with that And then my business is put on the map Yeah, the bigger I get, the better the hat The bttter the slacks, the better the shirts, the more I adapt The more you pay attention to my sentences The more you'll realize why I'm a lyrcist And why I sacrifice my time for this experience And why my album still isn't in your speakers yet You think you know me now, and you ain't even seen me yet Well, except maybe on your TV set Bring the bridge [Instrumental Break] [Scratched:] "Bring the bridge" [Chorus]
