Nas - Say Goodbye Hollywood

Chorus X2
Sayin` goodbye, I`m sayin` good bye to Hollywood / Sayin` goodbye, I`m sayin` good bye to Hollywood / Sayin` goodbye, I`m sayin` good bye to Hollywood / Sayin` goodbye, I`m sayin` good bye to Hollywood (Hollywood why do I feel this way?)
Verse 1
I thought I had it all figured out, I did, I thought I was tough enough to stick it out with Kim/but I wasn`t tough enough, to juggle two things at once, I found myself layin` on my knees in cuffs/which should`ve been a reason enough, for me to get my stuff and just leave. How come I couldn`t see this shit myself?/it`s just me, nobody couldn`t see the shit I felt, knowin` damn well she wasn`t gonna be there when I fell/to catch me, the minute shit was heated, she just bailed, I`m standin` here swingin` like thirty people by myself/I couldn`t even see the millimeter when it fell, turned around saw Gary stashin` the heater in his belt/saw the bouncers rush him and beat him to the ground, I just sold two million records, I don`t need to go to jail/I`m not about to lose my freedom over no female, I need to slow down, get my feet on solid ground/so for now I`m...
Chorus X2
Verse 2
I, bury my face in comic books, cus I don`t want to look at nothin`, this world`s too much, I`ve swallowed all I could/If I could swallow a bottle of Tylenol I would, and end it for good, just say goodbye to Hollywood/I probably should, these problems are piling all at once, cus everything that bothers me, I got it bottled up/I think I`m bottomin` out, but I`m not about to give up, I gotta get up, thank God, I got a little girl/and I`m a responsible father, so not a lot of good, I`d be to my daughter, layin` in the bottom of the mud/must be in my blood cus I don`t know how I do it, all I know is I don`t want to follow in the footsteps/of my dad, cus I hate him so bad, the worst fear that I had was growin` up to be like his fuckin` ass/man if you could understand why I am the way that I am, what do I say to my fans/when I tell `em (I`m)...
Chorus X2
Verse 3
I don`t wanna quit, but shit, I feel like this is it, for me to have this much appeal like this is sick/this is not a game, this fame, in real life this is sick, publicity stunt my ass, conceal my fuckin` dick/fuck the guns, I`m done, I`ll never look at Gats, if I scrap, I`ll scrap like I ain`t never whupped some ass/I love my fans, but no one ever puts a grasp on the fact, I`ve sacrificed everything I have/I never dreamt I`d get to the level that I`m at, this is wack, this is more than I ever coulda asked/everywhere I go, a hat, a sweater hood, or mask, what about math, how come I wasn`t ever good at that?/It`s like the boy in the bubble, who never could adapt, I`m trapped, if I could go back, I never woulda rapped/I sold my soul to the devil, I`ll never get it back, I just wanna leave this game with level head intact/Imagine goin` from bein` a no one to seein`, everything blow up and all you did was just grow up mcing/It`s fuckin` crazy, cus all I wanted was to give Hailie the life I never had, but instead I forced us to live alienated/so I`m sayin`...
