Look at the state of the world- yea I'm at the world- and I'ma share my frustrations just a little bit. Every brother is a thug - and while they're glorifying drugs they look at me bugged cuz I wanna be a gentlemen. And my ladies are a mess-they want value in the dress-and in themselves they don't invest in what's significant. The youngins quote 50-cent but can't count to 50 cent, we promote ignorance-were so illiterate. My Man's loving that money to death- I mean really to death-he'll kill himself to get him a check. Oh, but he weeped about Virginia tech but he sells glocks and techs- please help me understand his intellect. We can talk about taxes and air pollution -governments great illusions but that's make-up for the skin. I don't wanna give problems without solutions-so I've come to this conclusion- love God and Hate sin.(Hook) The Money -The Power-The Fame- The Lies and the games-it's all, it's all, it's all "Overrated" The Lust-The Pride-The Greed - anything to succeed-its all, it's all, it's all "Overrated"Verse 2 This cat was like I don't feel you to be honest-you should sound more street, more hood, more conscious. And also be more liberal with your content-he wanna make me a star so I can fall like a comet. Im satisfied with the things that God promised- I don't need to chase the steak when I'm cool with Top Ramen. I'm a servant of the king - I pay homage-I don't wanna be on top cause they put 'em at the bottom. Sho you faking to be humble and poor-in hopes that the LORD will turn around and bless you with more. No homie I just keep my face to the floor- when he opens that door my views will be the same as before. I cant be real commercial with it- non offensive lyrics- get some radio spins and give them Jesus later. I wanna walk like the Lord , talk like the Lord, if we live like the lord then the world will hate us.The Clothes-The Sex-The Cars-anything to be stars-its all, it's all, it's all "Overrated" The Rage-The Hate-The Drugs-everybody is a thug-its all, it's all, it's all "Overrated"Verse 3 It can be hard righteous living, with the freedom God has given, but we can live in the world and still keep our sanity. You might one day be a star, even drive a fancy car, but realize My friend it's all vanity. It's the heart at question, who has your affections is it the goods u love or the GOD who made it. So for my last suggestion, if we've learned any lesson, the worlds the lost game its overrated.The What-The Who, The Thing-the rat race for the green-its all, it's all, it's all "Overrated" The ohh-The Oooh, the Ahh, the blaise blah-its all, it's all,it's all "Overrated" The Cash, The Cream, The Diamonds, pretty much everything-it's all, it's all, it's all "Overrated."(Lyrics to the song: "Overrated" by Sho Baraka of Reach Records and from the Album "Turn My Life Up."
