I remember back in the day I played it cool
Didn't let the fame abstain from my School
Now I'm sittin up all night writing lyrics so tight
Make ya wanna drop ya mouth and go oooouuu
Got that education that triggered
All these spaces I figured
If I learned to spell it out I just might make it, I get it
And No I don't rap, but I keep ya entertained
Raise ya hands and scream my name
H O double L Y Wood
Damn I came a long way
They never thought I could
Don't let the pseudo they
Get in the way
Just keep on pushing each and every day (The Wood)
I know I was built for this (yeah)
So ima put my all in it (ooooh)
I don't need to look no further
Got my bases covered
Cuz I was ah
Child star, child star, child star
I know I was built for this (yeah)
So ima put my all in it (ooooh)
I don't need to look no further
Got my bases covered
Cuz I was ah
Child star, child star, child star
Destined for great things
Knew it at early age
Sat back down, studied
Then took a page
I always knew that my purpose was on a stage
But when I left broadway, things went astray
How can ya be a has been, if ya never made it
I know they gon call me names, so I wont fade it
And try to keep my cool
Feeling naked like ah fool
Ima lay these lyrics down after school
Cause I been writing all day
So get out my way
When I jump on the mic, ima kill it soufflé
J. A. Y. E. WOOD
Earning my respect
Like a real man should
Day after night, Ima put up a fight
Cuz I know that should be in the limelight light
Grinding so hard, theres a goal in sight
But nothing comes out, till I know it's right
I know I was built for this (yeah)
So ima put my all in it (ooooh)
I don't need to look no further
Got my bases covered
Cuz I was ah
Child star, child star, child star
I know I was built for this (yeah)
So ima put my all in it (ooooh)
I don't need to look no further
Got my bases covered
Cuz I was ah
Child star, child star, child star
