UNDAKOVA lyrics- Cartoon Characters

CARTOON CHARACTER VERSE

Chorus: 

You just a cartoon character. 

Crazy Amateur

You never get the chance to do the things you say you do

You just a cartoon character

Crazy Amateur 

Cause deep inside all of us are laughing at you. Repeat 3x

The jokes on you for years you didn’t hear it

Drowned that voice so you wouldn’t get near this

Gift that you have so powerful you fear it

Scared that someday you may just have to wield it

You can’t shield your light so just reveal it

Its much too bright to hide or then conceal with

Mediocre jobs that anyone can still get

We got dreams to fulfill people to build with

The hard times we had are still a privilege 

this ain’t for us we do this for the children 

for the people still living in a village 

without clean water all 800 million

plus the people still locked up in prison

our ancestors who died and passed on the wisdom

so we could overcome the struggles of the victims

to live life free to the fullest is the mission

Chorus: 

You just a cartoon character. 

Crazy Amateur

You never get the chance to do the things you say you do

You just a cartoon character

Crazy Amateur 

Cause deep inside all of us are laughing at you. Repeat 3x

The fact you responded with

A ramble of accomplishments

Shows your a cartoon who's lacking in self confidence

Every worthy thing you've gained is cause of providence

And everything you've done is marvelous but I don't honor it

I am just opposite, my ego I am on top of it

That's the only way that I survive in this metropolis.

Cause when I look upon the truth then it's so obvious

We smaller than a grain of ancient sand and there's no stopping this

Universe from expanding beyond binoculars 

Beyond your imagination of what a rocket does

Beyond the monumental feats of astronomers

Beyond the billion galaxies and stars thatz surrounding us

So be honest with yourself your just one of us

A human being grateful there's another day in front of us

I don't care about your material things you flaunting cause 

As far as I am concerned they come and go ain't nothing promised cause

 

 

BACK STORY ON THE VERSE

This verse is inspired by the many years I have taken to finally write it lol. Yep Self Suffice and I have been on this topic of cartoon characters and have had this beat since I was round 14 years old. It was one of the first beats I created using a computer software called Digital Orchestrator plus to sample parts for it. I remember we made the chorus up in his room one day in the lower east side after I brought the beat over to his house after creating it at home with DOP. Self Suffice and I go way back like that. I didn't have the name UNDAKOVA until joining his crew UNDERRATED that was already established before I came on board.
Fast forward many moons til now I was having a conversation with Self over the phone and I decided to write this verse. Self has a verse ready as well and its fire. He called me in the middle of me writing his verse while I was still 8 bars into mine with his already finished. That's how we have been an inspiration for each other year after year.  Hope you enjoy.
