Tom MacDonald - Hello Hollywood Lyrics
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Hello, Hollywood, we probably never met, you kept the door closed
You like to pretend I don’t exist at award shows
Tried to keep me underground, like underneath the floorboards
But now I’m way too popular for you to just ignore more
I don’t need the industry to like me, bite me
I didn’t come to Hollywood to sight-see
Now I got my hands around they throats and I’m holdin’ on so tightly
You can’t kick me out, don’t believe me? Try me
I won’t ever fit in with these bubble gum celebrities
I will not pretend y’all ain’t the enemy
Y’all are not my friends, I’m not keepin’ it professional or anything
I don’t hang with fake people, we don’t got no chemistry
I ain’t doin’ interviews, and yes, I’m able
But I ain’t gonna sit with you to boost yo’ sales
This ain’t a band, I’m so real that it’s painful
Middle fingers to every record label
I showed up, no one invited me, nah, nah
If you mad, try and tell me I should leave, haha
Showed up, now you gon’ see, la la
What happens when you try and stop me
Hello, Hollywood, put your hands up in the air
If everybody’s good then nobody’s gettin’ hurt
Hello, Hollywood, I’m here
Hello, Hollywood, I’m here
Hello, Hollywood, y’all ain’t ready for this kind of crazy
Pissed off white boy, no media training
I get up on yo’ TV or radio station
If I think it then I say it, I don’t care if they hate me
The paparazzi folllow, tryna get a picture
I look away from photos and I flip ’em the bird
I should probably just go home before somebody gets hurt
‘Cause I’ll be spittin’ at cameras until I’m layin’ in dirt
I don’t need the cover of your magazines
Everybody’s mad at me, to me bein’ famous ain’t a fantasy
It’s somethin’ that just happened, I’ve been rockin’ wit’ it happily
Ain’t comin’ down for nothin’, fuck the Grammies and gravity
Ain’t ever goin’ Hollywood ’cause I don’t have the patience
For managers, or publicists, or meetings with agents
I don’t need no accolades or fake validations
I’m the best there ever was, I don’t need your nominations
I showed up, no one invited me, nah, nah
If you mad, try and tell me I should leave, haha
Showed up, now you gon’ see, la la
What happens when you try and stop me
Hello, Hollywood, put your hands up in the air
If everybody’s good then nobody’s gettin’ hurt
Hello, Hollywood, I’m here
Hello, Hollywood, I’m here
Hello, Hollywood, I’m honored to accept this award
In an industry that’s overrun with liars and whores
In a business that encourages you sellin’ your soul
I made millions of dollars and I’m the same as before
I’d like to thank my mom, my dad, my girl and myself
And shoutout to my sister, but fuck everyone else
I never faked a smile, I said exactly how I felt
Then I still feel the same, I don’t need anybody’s help
You tried to dumb me down until my music had no purpose
You tried to make me blend in with the people in yo’ circles
You tried to change my style and make my music more commercial
And after all these years, I’m even more controversial, bitch
I showed up, no one invited me, nah, nah
If you mad, try and tell me I should leave, haha
I showed up, now you gon’ see, la la
What happens when you try and stop me
Hello, Hollywood, put your hands up in the air
If everybody’s good then nobody’s gettin’ hurt
Hello, Hollywood, I’m here
Hello, Hollywood, I’m here
