Lyrics

step up (Step up, step up) step up (Step up, step up) (Step up) Fall back Take a look at me and you'll see I'm for real I'll feel what only I can feel And if that don't appeal to you, let me know And I'll go 'cause I flow Better when my colors show And that's the way it has to be, honestly 'Cause creativity could never bloom in my room I'd throw it all away before I lie So don't call me with a compromise Hang up the phone I got a backbone stronger than yours La la la la la la (step up) La la la la la la (step up) La la la la la la Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah If you're trying to turn me into someone else It's easy to see I'm not down with that (I'm not nobody's fool) I'm not nobody's fool If you're trying to turn me in something else I've seen it enough and I'm over that (I'm not nobody's fool) I'm not nobody's fool If you wanna bring me down Go ahead and try Go ahead and try You don't know, you think you know me like yourself But I fear that you're only telling me what I wanna hear But do you give a damn? Understand that I can't not be what I am I'm not the milk and Cheerios in your spoon It's not as simple as, "here we go, " not so soon I might've fallen for that when I was fourteen and a little more green But it's amazing what a couple of years can mean La la la la la la (step up) La la la la la la (step up) La la la la la la (yeah) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah If you're trying to turn me into someone else It's easy to see I'm not down with that (I'm not nobody's fool) I'm not nobody's fool If you're trying to turn me into something else I've seen it enough and I'm over that (I'm not nobody's fool) I'm not nobody's fool If you wanna bring me down Go ahead and try Go ahead and try (Oh) Go ahead and try, try and look me in the eye But you'll never see inside until you realize, realize Things are trying to settle down Just tryna to figure out Exactly what I'm about If it's with or without you, I don't need you doubting me If you're trying to turn me into someone else It's easy to see I'm not down with that (I'm not nobody's fool) I'm not nobody's fool If you're trying to turn me into something else I've seen it enough and I'm over that (I'm not nobody's fool) I'm not nobody's fool If you wanna bring me down Go ahead and try, try La la la la la la (yeah, yeah) La la la la la la (yeah, yeah) La la la la la la (oh) La la la la la la Would you be laughing out loud If I played to my own crowd Try, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Go ahead and try)
