The Wanna Be

Why pretend? Why feign that inexisting attitude?
You just cant be yourself and show God gratitude,
You've turned a Wanna Be cos u need to blend with the multitude,
You fake and pretend just to live at high altitude.

Crazy looks and appearance, all in the name of swaggs,
Your likes call it fashion and trend, i call it rags,
Just like your pair of trousers, your life sags,
I know you're proving levels, but far behind you lag.

A Wanna Be is so blind, never sees the future,
Cos in every show of class, he'd always love to feature,
Partyin all night, spending the afternoon at leisure,
Forming strange accent, like someone with a brain seizure.

Will you open your eyes and retreat from this suicide mission,
Cos u'll self-destruct, as long as you lack vision,
Yes, u wanna be popular like that star on television,
But your failure and doom will cut you like an incision.

Be original, be real, never be a Wanna Be,
Or you'll always be a learner, notin wey u go sabi,
Boast of your personality, dont be a timid tabby,
A Wanna Be keeps wishing, but they never get to be.

Be yourself, you are special, you are peculiar!
