Fleur East – Fame lyrics

[Chorus]
So you want everybody screaming your name
Are you ready, are you ready for the game? Yeah
So you want everybody screaming your name
Get their hands up, get your hopes up, will it be enough?

[Verse 1]
So you wanna be famous
Everywhere you goin', everybody know what your name is
Gettin' high when you see yourself in the papers
Drop it low for the ‘Gram, flashin' for the haters
You'll do anythin', so shameless to be anything but nameless
But the funny thing, you don't know anything, you just want everything where you been
Got you wonderin', so aimless
So dumb, so numb, think you're painless
Got this all wrong, think you're blameless
No foundation, got you baseless
Runnin' ‘round here shockin', droppin' bombs like you're faceless
Gettin' followers don't equal greatness
And your face won't make you ageless
Skinny new problems don't mean weightless
Are you thinkin' ‘bout the consequences? Throwin' up defences
When you write your story, see your lessons on your pages

[Chorus]
So you want everybody screaming your name
Are you ready, are you ready for the game? Yeah
So you want everybody screaming your name
Get their hands up, get your hopes up, will it be enough?

[Verse 2]
So you wanna be know, wanna be shown
Wanna be on loan when you're gonna be owned
Wanna reap from seeds that you ain't sewn
Wanna get up on that microphone
So you fill your face with that silicone
Just to get your face on that new cologne
Now you're in the race, double up like a clone
Just to get a taste, fuck it up
Unbeknown to you, you ain't got a clue
‘Cause you never really think about what all the fame'll do
You just wanna walk up in the room like everybody who done it
Doesn't really matter, just want everybody into you
You just want a interview
God only knows what you'll begin to do when it all fades
What you gonna do?
When they don't tap tap
When they don't clap clap
Where's your entourage? Where's your crew?
All you got is you

[Chorus]
So you want everybody screaming your name
Are you ready, are you ready for the game? Yeah
So you want everybody screaming your name
Get their hands up, get your hopes up, will it be enough?
When the lights go down, when the music stops
It's a long way down when you're falling from the top, yeah
You want everybody screaming your name
Get their hands up, get your hopes up

[Outro]
You want everybody screaming your name
Are you ready, are you ready for the game? Yeah
They're screaming your name
Will it be enough?
