Give Me A Reason

Yeah, enough with the love
I need to be hated again
I need somebody to wake up the beast and really get under my skin
I need somebody to push me
Tell me that I ain't no good with the pen
I need somebody to poke and pry and really get into my head

I need somebody to laugh
Tell me I'm trash, tell me I might as well quit
I need somebody to grab the blade in my back
Stab, and give it a twist
I need somebody to smash
Break all my plaques, tell me I shouldn't exist
I need somebody to ask "Why you even rap?
You'll never become one of the -" (ay)

I need somebody to brag and show me the cash
And tell me "You'll never be rich"
I need somebody with stats
And numbers and facts to tell me I ain't got no hits
I need somebody who's whack and ain't got no class
To tell me I'm not on their list
I need somebody to act like I'm in the past
So I can remind 'em I'm here
I need somebody to -

Give me a reason, whoa, give me a reason
Ay, give me a reason, whoa, yeah, give me a reason (whoo, whoo, whoo)
I forgot what that struggle like (mm)
I forgot what that hustle like (mm)
I forgot what that humble like (mm)
I forgot what that -, I forgot what that - (ay)

I ain't forget about nothin'
To keep it a hundred, I'm honestly bored
I wanna feel like I felt when nobody was followin' me
And I had no awards
I wanna get back to hearin' them
Call me a "wannabe Shady", who ain't got no voice
I want the people that promised they'd always be with me
To leave me and walk out the door

I want the fans to quit buyin' tickets
And tell me they don't want to see me on tour
I want the label to drop me and tell me it's over
The music ain't makin' no noise
I want the critics to call me a gimmick
And tell me they thought I was better before
I wanna hear you keep talkin' the way that you talkin'
When no one's around to record

(I wanna -) whoo, yeah, I want a story
I wanna hear about how you ain't feelin' the music
And why it ain't better than yours
I wanna -, whoo, yeah, tell me some more
I wanna hear about, I wanna talk about
I wanna air it out, I need somebody to -

Yeah, give me a reason, whoa, give me a reason
Ay, give me a reason, whoa, give me a reason (whoo, whoo, whoo)
I forgot what that struggle like (ay, ay, ay)
I forgot what that hustle like (ay, ay, ay)
I forgot what that humble like (ay, ay, ay)
I forgot what that -, I forgot what that -
(Whoo, whoo, whoo)
