Smile Songtext
von Edan

I knew this brother that was almost a genius
True brilliance would meet him at the zenith
But on the downside, my man would get depressed
Negative thoughts destroyed what he did best
Native creative, illmatic artist
Focus all his energy and show you a sharp piece
Prodigy performer, musically divine
Classical composer, innovative each time
Gifted individual, say no more
Going through the motions, feeling sad on tour Scared of the fame, pressure on the brain
Vomit backstage when they introduce his name
House lights go down, everybody clap
Fuck it, the show goes on and that′ll be that
Smile for the camera, running down the classics
Close out the show climactic
With backflips, thunderous applause for the artist that amazes
Inside the mind though he's going through changes
Suicidal thoughts while the audience is loving
The source of amusement, he feels disillusioned


He gives the show of his life though he′s breaking down
Although you'd never know it
But there's something different about him now
He′s painted his smile on upside down
