Yeah you rise then you fall
Come one come all watch the life of celebrities true
One day you on top then the next day you fall
The best of the best then your through

You rise then you fall
Come one come all watch the life of celebrities true
One day you on top then the next day you fall
The best of the best then your through

You know the type, he ready to stunt
Call him the pinch hitter and he ready to bunt
Call him the clinch kicker and he ready to punt
While I call him the b*tch n*gga cause he ready to front

Yeah he ready to tap dance for that cash
Even blow for that dough, anywhere you wanna go
Wind up the back and call him your toy soldier
Long as you lace him up with diamonds and range rovers

In the studio, he fron like he bussin' up
In real life he scared to jump like it's double dutch
But his image is everything in this industry
Even if it eliminates his pride and dignity

He needs to get his nose out that corporate asscrack
Not really worth your soul just to get on the fast track
You laughin to the back but when they leave your ass alone
Your happy ass gon be crying to the retirement home

Yeah you rise then you fall
Come one come all watch the life of celebrities true
One day you on top then the next day you fall
The best of the best then your through

You rise then you fall
Come one come all watch the life of celebrities true
One day you on top then the next day you fall
The best of the best then your through

You know the type, she ready to shop
Call her a bag lady for the purses she cop
Call her a tag lady cause she purchase and pop
While I call her a tad shady cause she work it for cock

Yeah she ready to pop and shake for that cake
Even date for that stake, anything for that safe
Wind up the back and call her your toy soldier
Long as you lace her with nail and hair rollers

In the limelight, she front like she innocent
In real life her and her manager are intimate
But her image is everything in this industry
Even if it eliminates her pride and diginity

She needs to get her nose out that corporate nutsack
Not really worth your soul just to get on the bus back
You laughing to the bank but when he leave your ass alone
Your happy ass gon be crying to the retirement home.

Yeah you rise then you fall
Come one come all watch the life of celebrities true
One day you on top then the next day you fall
The best of the best then your through

You rise then you fall
Come one come all watch the life of celebrities true
One day you on top then the next day you fall
The best of the best then your through
