[Intro]
~#**************#~
Gerald what the fuck is wrong, man?
~#**************#~
Cheer the fuck up, you asshole, yeah
~#**************#~
[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
We fake it til we make it, work while everyone doubts
~#**************#~
I was dreamin of award shows while still on the couch
~#**************#~
Fame is all so new to me, guess Im feelin it out
~#**************#~
Man the other day my grandma said shes selling the house—wait
~#**************#~
See I was much more bummy and less star
~#**************#~
When my moms unemployment check wouldnt stretch far
~#**************#~
Wishin that my confidence was made out of Kevlar
~#**************#~
And I could superhero, save the day, cop her next car
~#**************#~
Coming out the Bay feels like nobody gets far
~#**************#~
Feels like were doomed
~#**************#~
Like theyre building a Death Star
~#**************#~
Drink it all the way, stumble into the next bar
~#**************#~
Rap is like the lottery, were all tryna scratch for
~#**************#~
But when that shit just strikes gold
~#**************#~
You accomplish life goals
~#**************#~
Go and get that ice froze, get paid off of nice flows
~#**************#~
Its weird now I got money to buy nice steez
~#**************#~
But dont look down
~#**************#~
Get scared of heights like these
~#**************#~
[Hook]
~#**************#~
Gerald what you so sad for?
~#**************#~
Why the hell you got the blues?
~#**************#~
Everybody wanna be in your shoes
~#**************#~
Gerald what you so sad for?
~#**************#~
Everything aint that bad
~#**************#~
Name a reason that you got to be mad
~#**************#~
Gerald what you so sad for?
~#**************#~
Man stop acting like a bitch
~#**************#~
Forgot youre all famous now and rich?
~#**************#~
Gerald what you so sad for?
~#**************#~
Man stop cryin, homie rap more
~#**************#~
(Alright, well)
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
And in a year I went from overlooked to over-booked
~#**************#~
You wont ever understand the work it took
~#**************#~
Drinkin every night to celebrate what we made
~#**************#~
But the parties have changed
~#**************#~
Weirdos crowd around and start acting strange
~#**************#~
At the bar stress chain smoking cigarettes
~#**************#~
And I dont even smoke, I know I should drink a little less
~#**************#~
But nothing can prepare you for how crazy this business gets
~#**************#~
Once again sad boy Gerald is in distress
~#**************#~
So hard on myself I think Im going insane
~#**************#~
The mind of a perfectionist is always in pain
~#**************#~
Should be happy I dont have to set alarms to wake up
~#**************#~
I just tour and cake up
~#**************#~
I should probably call home so me and moms can make up
~#**************#~
These days the only home I know is the road
~#**************#~
And clowns are all sad inside, or so I’m told
~#**************#~
And the girl Im really thinking of is states away
~#**************#~
Well run away and find a place to stay
~#**************#~
[Hook]
~#**************#~
Gerald what you so sad for?
~#**************#~
Why the hell you got the blues?
~#**************#~
Everybody wanna be in your shoes
~#**************#~
Gerald what you so sad for?
~#**************#~
Everything aint that bad
~#**************#~
Name a reason that you got to be mad
~#**************#~
Gerald what you so sad for?
~#**************#~
Man stop acting like a bitch
~#**************#~
Forgot youre all famous now and rich?
~#**************#~
Gerald what you so sad for?
~#**************#~
This was everything you asked for
