Get Me Gone Lyrics - The Rising Tied - Fort Minor

The dude, he said that, like when we were making 

The first Linkin Park record, he was like 

"Yeah, you know, I don't know about the rapping like 

I don't know if it's, like maybe you should just be a rock band" 

You know what I mean, like trying to change us 

Like they signed us as an act 

Like what we sound like and then he's like 

"Oh, I don't know, maybe you should just play keyboard" 

Before the first song that you heard me on 

There were people already tryin' to get me gone 

Tellin' me to quit rapping, just play the keys 

That my band had a singer, they didn't need me 

But my band had my back, so we did the tracks 

Put out the album and the talk went flat 

It was funny at first but then the humor faded 

When some magazines printed that our label made us 

We were to be good to be true 

Some were saying ghost writers were writin' all that we do 

So we had to disprove it, we spelled it out to the detail how we do it 

When we're making this music, after that I made it a rule 

I only do e-mail responses to print interviews 

Because these people love to put a twist to your words 

To infer that you said something fucking absurd 

Oh, did I lose you at infer? 

Not used to hearing a verse that uses over first grade vocabulary words? 

People used to infer that we were manufactured 

Now I've got the interviews on file 

Which people said what, which number to dial 

So now every enemy screaming insanity 

All they're ever gonna be's another big fan of me 

Bitch
