[INTRO]
Jean Michael Basquiat: I want to do some Anatomy stuff…
Interviewer: And then…
Jean Michael Basquiat: And then I went out and bought some books about some animals
Interviewer: And then you started imitating…
Jean Michael Basquiat: Well, I'm not really imitating because, you know… Right, I use it as a source material
Interviewer: Yeah… So, why you wanted to do Anatomy stuff?
Jean Michael Basquiat: Cuz I felt like it...
Interviewer: Unless you felt like it, or just uh… bеcoming conscious of
Your own body, haha?
Jean Michael Basquiat: No, no, just…
Interviеwer: umm…
Jean Michael Basquiat: Just from more academic references. To juxtapose them with what I do normally
Interviewer: Yeah…
[Chorus]
Call me young Basquiat
I just wanna be alone
Making music on my own
Getting head all night long, yeah!
Call me young Basquiat
I just wanna be alone
Making music on my own
Getting head all night long, yeah!
Call me young Basquiat
I just wanna be alone
Making music on my own
Getting head all night long, yeah!
Call me young Basquiat
I just wanna be alone
Making music on my own
Getting head all night long, yeah!
[BRIDGE]
I'm not like you
I make music for me…
I'm not like you
I'm willing to die for this shit…
[VERSE]
Yeah!
Willing to die for this shit
I don’t give a fuck
I live for this shit
Living my dream since I was 18
Expressing my self since was 18
I'm no god-damn artist
I'm no god-damn artist
I got no fucking talent
I got no fucking talent
Willing to starve for this shit
Willing to die for this shit, under a bridge
I don’t give a damn I fall for this shit
I don’t give a damn if I'm broke for this shit
I'm not good at making music
Fuck that, I'm doing beats
On God, OD on this
On God, I'm feeling this
Why the fuck you doing this?
And why the fuck you making beats?
Legacy for the kids, man!
Legacy for my kids, yeah!
[OUTRO]
Listen…
I'm doing this so you can see
That my soul is just like yours
I'm not special in any form
So, you can do whatever the fuck you want!
Express your feelings in any shape and form
Be your self, fuck them all!
If you can dream it
You can do it
That’s a fact
Don’t even doubt that
Fuck your age
Fuck your skin
Fuck your weight
Fuck the world
Live your dreams
Be at peace
Fuck the world!
Live your dreams!
Be at peace!
I'm not special
You can do it too…
