letra de i just wanna be like ice cube - katie tropp

[intro]

this song is dedicated to my favorite rapper!

[verse 1]

independent right from the start
always keep it gangsta but you know he’s smart
he’s been making dollars from his art
he believed in himself to set him apart
gotta tell the truth even if it hurts
middle finger to the government with a smirk
all he ever does is put in work
always stay the same khakis and shirts
i know about the pyroclastic flow
went solo as “amerikkka’s most…
“…wanted” mother f-cker from the west coast
whose lyrical assault left you exposed
as time goes on you’re still here
banging out music into my ears
just know that i am sincere
when i say you’re the greatest rap pioneer!

[chorus]

don’t you tell me who to be
i know i’m free
this is my dream
i just wanna be like ice cube!
don’t you tell me who to be
i know i’m free
this is my dream
i just wanna be like ice cube!

[verse 2]

women are dumb they only wanna be a wh0re
i’ve got aspirations to be so much more
while you on all fours i’m on tours
ain’t got time to wait i’m kickin’ in doors
cube is the sh-t that’s why i look up to him
i don’t wanna be like you pathetic women
being told who to be by a bunch of men
who take your f-ckin’ image and crush your success
i want respect as an mc
i don’t really care who wants to f-ck me
i don’t need validation with a grammy
even if i don’t earn a dollar i’m still writing
most of you ain’t got that drive
because in the end you’re weak in the mind
you look at me like i’m outta my mind
you’re just upset that i control mine!

[chorus]
don’t you tell me who to be
i know i’m free
this is my dream
i just wanna be like ice cube!

don’t you tell me who to be
i know i’m free
this is my dream
i just wanna be like ice cube!

[verse 3]

why i can’t look up to a black man
his point of view is something i understand
a v-g-n- don’t mean i can only do b-tch rap
this is my mic and i ain’t giving it back
“gangsta rap made me do it”
that statement right there is the truest
nothing but love for the music
flowing through my blood like a rap transfusion
this ain’t about what anybody looks like
all i really know is he sparked up a light
inspired me to write rock the f-ckin’ mic
always keep it real even if it’s not polite
“straight outta compton” punched em in the mouth
and still to this day you keep knockin’ em out
i hope one day i can go as many rounds
ice cube’s the greatest on the mic pound for pound!
[chorus]

don’t you tell me who to be
i know i’m free
this is my dream
i just wanna be like ice cube!
