Lyrics
Oh what a marvelous thing my dear
To be amongst glorious stars in here
The limelight, the limelight, the limelight, the limelight
Say ta-ta, fading stars
Never wanna say it's over love
The limelight, the limelight, the limelight, the limelight
Excuse me Nicki would you please menage me and quickly
I promise not to bring Eric with me
Eric is respected, I'm surprised evidently
You ain't heard of Rakim, please tell me how come
I love it when you rock him but my niggas say it's doo doo
Young money, old money, I get it true true
The money then power respect, thanks Kimberly
Gotta make the money so somebody remembers me
Lyrics ain't gon' cut it, fuck it I could just simply
Sell out to sell out crowds, what a recipe
I see my destiny, star on the boardwalk
Grammy night walking my family down the red carpet
Simon Cowell, next American Idol is Reks dawg
I know you must think it's utterly unjust
Blah blah yadda yadda yadda, I'm a rhymer's rhymer
And I find the need to keep it turnin while I find the umm
Oh what a marvelous thing my dear
To be amongst glorious stars in here
The limelight, the limelight, the limelight, the limelight
Say ta-ta, fading stars
Never wanna say it's over love
The limelight, the limelight, the limelight, the limelight
Pardon me Taylor but it's fairer for us to share the stage for a spell
So I can tell all the beautiful people they're looking swell
New fashion, fly as hell
The paparazzi get shots of my apparel
That's apparel for losers, apparently
You just ain't hip to the newest influences
Twitter twitter, oh how I love my tweets
I spit a little better to N-O-T-T these beats
I go to TMZ, Vlad TV, gotta get the latest in beef
And fabulous gossip just to talk shit when I check
Watch as the LOL's add up
A nigga feel glad cause technology is sweet
Come follow me on Facebook even if we never speak
Career, success, they meet, we poppin
Show off barbecue MIA to Boston
All some glamour and glitz I'm handlin my shit so
Oh what a marvelous thing my dear
To be amongst glorious stars in here
The limelight, the limelight, the limelight, the limelight
Say ta-ta, fading stars
Never wanna say it's over love
The limelight, the limelight, the limelight, the limelight
Yeah, iPod check, iPhone check
IPad yes, iReks next
Lookin at the XXL freshmen ten oh well
Maybe next year when the Show Off sell
A bunch of records off the shelf
I'll be on the cover with 'em cause
I give 'em somethin totally different
You know that feel good, rhythm used to hit 'em well
Now they got the digital, sales
Fuck a major put it online, your cell tell
Homie on the Twitter get the link, cop a nigga tape
On the iTunes, you tuned to YouTube, improve my views great
The hate, even a blessing cause it get me a discussion
Will he make it is the question
They say Reks cool, but J. Cole, best reppin
I like Cole, he cold, for sho, check out a weapon
Tell Nas, Diddy, tell Dre, Reks he a weapon
And I'm steppin in the limelight, signed or unsigned like
Oh what a marvelous thing my dear
To be amongst glorious stars in here
The limelight, the limelight, the limelight, the limelight
Say ta-ta, fading stars
Never wanna say it's over love
The limelight, the limelight, the limelight, the limelight
Yeah, dear limelight shine bright
Light up the night sky, I am in awe of the stars
