I didn't get into making music for the fame aspect. There are people who do desire that.

Fame 90
David Bowie
words and music by David Bowie, John Lennon and Carlos Alomar
Fame, makes a man take things over
Fame, lets him loose, hard to swallow
Fame, puts you there where things are hollow
Fame
Fame, it's not your brain, it's just the flame
That burns your change to keep you insane
Fame
Fame-f-fame
Fame, what you like is in the limo
Fame, what you get is no tomorrow
Fame, what you need you have to borrow
Fame
Fame, "Nien! It's mine!" is just his line
To bind your time, it drives you to crime
Fame

Could it be the best, could it be?
Really be, really, babe?

The Saunder
You couldn't escape this music even if your name's Houdini
Our tracks say Life, Phi Life and don't disappear like a genie
Communicating through your airwaves like a giant C.B.
Cos this one's for your radios or whether you receive me
Our music is so hot it feels like the sun in Tahiti
We wickedy-wock Gorillaz style is buck wild believe me
We're heavy weights who phase ya, like Ali did with Frasier
We spit the most flavour, and musically we'll amaze you
We've been blessed and we've been gifted, by Jesus in his manger
Won't you shout halleluiah, here comes the music saviour
From your heart to your mind, your spirits to your souls
We've come to take control, with the Gorillaz on patrol
See our rhymes possess the powers of a super hero
Supernaturally we rock the mic but with a natural flow
If you didn't know before, you know now we told you so
Gorillaz rock it on just like the one in Tokyo
Chorus...
Cos we're making this music that's making you lose it
So people don't abuse it, and there ain't no way for you to refuse it
Gorillaz be the army that's starting this party hard
Making more noise than carnivals mixed with the Mardi-Gradi
We're coming through your town with this sound that's so profound
Gorillaz with the rappers that straight from the underground
We're tearing it down, making you feel this sort of force
Knocking it into your senses and knocking you off your course
Cos we're the source, got your feeling that's so appealing
We got you jumping around and bouncing off of the ceiling
Making music and feeling from Baltimore into Bristol
I know you're hearing me cos my voice is clearer than crystal
The casual supernatural flows I be exposing

It's Music Not Noise
Love Music, Hate Noise
Music may heal you
Noise may irritate you
Different from every aspect.
Find Music, Throw Noise
Music is nice,
Noise is insane
Different from each other.
Cherish Music, Burn Noise
Music is good
Noise is evil
Now can you choose?

Reactions
People recognize
As you recognize them
People accept
As you accept you
People believe
As you believe in you.
People aspect
As you aspect out of them
People react
As you like to react them
People respect
If you have the self-respect
If you want the honor
You must have to have the integrity
If you want to live with a great personality
You must have to shun the negative entity!

It was a really interesting time in New York in the late 70s and early 80s, and the music scene was really, really interesting because you didn't have to be a virtuoso to make music, it was more about your desire to express things.

Money and Love
She was reading a book on a bench.
He recognized her. Years ago
He had a crush on her in high school.
So what is now your luminous goal in life? ”
She asked.
“Money and fame”, he said.
“Your answer is more disappointing
Than surprising”, she said.
“Why? You don’t want money and fame? ”
“No, I don’t want money and fame.”
“You’re a hypocrite.”
“This sneer was predictable, but I really
Don’t want money and fame.”
“Why? You don’t need money to buy
Food, clothes and other necessities? ”
“Of course I need. However, I am talking
About priorities. I don’t live to make
Money; I make money to live”, she said.
“I see. But how can you be happy
If you are not rich? ” he asked.
“I don’t believe that happiness really
Can emanate from wealth.
My neighbor won millions in the casinos
Of Las Vegas but he is still depressed.
And a lot of unhappy rich and famous
People walk the streets out there.”
“So what is it that you really desire in life? ”
“Peace, well-being and contentment.”
“That’s all? ”
She gave him a gentle and exploring look.
“No”, she said. “That’s not all.
I desire to have an inner fortune that
Eclipses all the external thrills of the world.
I want to love and to be loved.”

Stop Laughing
The reason why,
They have rejected your assistance.
And have ignored your suggestions...
Recommendations and proposals written,
Is a belief you are seeking something from them.
'Like what?
Notoriety?
Fame?
Or 'Worldwide' attention?
What is it?
There are people living far more advanced,
Who have no idea this place is on the map.'
Well...
Let's just say this,
People approaching them with common sense...
And speak as if they 'might' be intelligent,
Have not been embraced with open arms.
Maybe 'if' they didn't 'think' they knew you,
Both you and they would benefit from this.
'I'll say this again...
'What do they believe I want from 'them'?
Fame? '
Maybe it's fortune?
'Stop laughing.
I'm suppose to do that.'

Fame That Destroyed The Poet
To be poet you must have desire to understand in all things large and small.
Even what being poet means after all.
Fame is hardly lived by those who are truly great.
In fame we all wish to embrace.
Some desire it more then others.
But an expectation of the best will only smother.
Extinguish a flame that yet needs to grow.
A burning of such a unique cloth.
The embers begin glow as the material turns to ash.
And something you had is gone just like that.

Love resurrected
We were known to each other.
You were wed to some other.
I didn’t let you know my desire.
You didn’t let me guess your desire.
Now you are a grandmother.
I want from you to know whether
You had for me then, a desire.
You nodded. I fell flat.
Yes, my love is fulfilled.
With that I shall ever live.
You are not mine, but were.
I cannot own you, but once.
By mind, though not by body.
Who wants body? I mind the mind.
To us, let others be blind.
