[Chorus - Underrated]
Do you, love me,
Cause everybody knows my name and I gained a little power & fame?
Do you, love me,
Cause I'm rappin' on this stage and it pays more than minimum wage?
Do you, love me,
That's what you're saying in my face, but I'll catch you if you're real or you're fake?
Why don't you, love me,
For being me? But I'll never know, so I'll never let my feelings grow

[Verse One - Underrated]
When I was growing up young, I didn't have no girl
The music got me sprung, dreamed of rockin' the world
Then we started doing show, now I'm learnin' 'bout ho's
The power of this microphone got 'em taking off they clothes
It's too easy now, so every girl I think is sleazy now
Eeny, meeny, miney, mo. I pick a ho when she is down
Incredible in bed, says she loves me too
But the voices in my head say, "Josh, don't be a fool."
I'm lovin' what I'm doin' cause I'm rappin' for a livin'
And we're steady on this mission
But there's still something missin'
She loves a musician, lovin' my emmision
But the first time we kicked it, she was on my dick kissin'
Is that a groupie, or am I the dumbest man alive
I must be stupid, I tried to make this girl my wife
To make a long story short, now she's gone
And I'm sitting here alone writing words to this song
And I'm scarred now, there ain't nothin' I can do
Everytime I meet a girl I'm always gettin' so confused
I wanna open up, I wanna show you how I feel
But I'm scared and I don't know if your love is real

[Chorus - Underrated]
Do you, love me,
Cause everybody knows my name and I gained a little power & fame?
Do you, love me,
Cause I'm rappin' on this stage and it pays more than minimum wage?
Do you, love me,
That's what you're saying in my face, but I'll catch you if you're real or you're fake?
Why don't you, love me,
For being me? But I'll never know, so I'll never let my feelings grow

[Interlude - One Ton]
I feel you man. How can you know if you can trust these women?
Do you know 'em. I mean, even after you know 'em
Do you really, really know 'em?

[Chorus - One Ton]
Will you, love me,
If I can't afford a wedding ring going broke, chasin' my dream?
Will you, love me,
If I had to go to jail for possesion with intention to sell?
Will you, love me,
If we could never have a baby cause I gotta smoke a blunt on the daily?
Will you, love me,
When that groupie calls, saying that she fucked me at a show last fall?

[Verse Two - One Ton]
I got no way of knowin', hope you can see what I'm showin'
I'm an aspiring rapper, who makes a livin' from growin'
I don't know where I'm going, I only know where I've went
Only know that I'm grindin' just so that I can pay rent
Live my life in the mist, can't bring a wife into this
Can't have no kid, cause I be broke, and I be fightin' the stress
I just give it my best, and keep on reppin' the West
Potluck ain't goin' platinum, that's how I measure success
Will you love me when I tour more than I'm at home?
Will you turn into a whore, and lie to me on the phone?
I'm losing faith in all women, cause of this life that I'm livin'
Got bitches backstage strippin', in every city we've been in
When I rap and they clappin' they keep their eye in my direction
They're just some groupie hoes and they lie when I reject 'em
[?] Can only trust a ho so much
Fuck everyone who don't believe it's victory or bust

[Chorus - One Ton]
Will you, love me,
If I can't afford a wedding ring going broke, chasin' my dream?
Will you, love me,
If I had to go to jail for possesion with intention to sell?
Will you, love me,
If we could never have a baby cause I gotta smoke a blunt on the daily?
Will you, love me,
When that groupie calls, saying that she fucked me at a show last fall?Lyrics provided by TANCODEhttp://lyricsever.com/" readonly=""/>

Love Me Lyrics

[Intro - Underrated]
It's a problem, I meet a girl and everything's cool for a while. But then I start thinkin' about it and I'm like, "Does she like me, or does she like what she thinks I am?"

[Chorus - Underrated]
Do you, love me,
Cause everybody knows my name and I gained a little power & fame?
Do you, love me,
Cause I'm rappin' on this stage and it pays more than minimum wage?
Do you, love me,
That's what you're saying in my face, but I'll catch you if you're real or you're fake?
Why don't you, love me,
For being me? But I'll never know, so I'll never let my feelings grow

[Verse One - Underrated]
When I was growing up young, I didn't have no girl
The music got me sprung, dreamed of rockin' the world

The power of this microphone got 'em taking off they clothes
It's too easy now, so every girl I think is sleazy now
Eeny, meeny, miney, mo. I pick a ho when she is down
Incredible in bed, says she loves me too
But the voices in my head say, "Josh, don't be a fool."
I'm lovin' what I'm doin' cause I'm rappin' for a livin'
And we're steady on this mission
But there's still something missin'
She loves a musician, lovin' my emmision
But the first time we kicked it, she was on my dick kissin'
Is that a groupie, or am I the dumbest man alive
I must be stupid, I tried to make this girl my wife

For the last decade, Potluck has built a well-deserved reputation as the premiere rap group in Humboldt County. They are one of the more promising young talents to emerge from Northern California's legendary, organic, independent, hip-hop scene.

Combining an average joe sensibility along with syrupy west coast beats, clever samples, and witty rhymes Potluck's weed inspired song topics include everything from life and loves tribulations to neck-snapping battle raps.

Back in 1995, 1 Ton, who originally hails from San Diego, and UnderRated, who was born and raised in Humboldt, met at a dj trial. "We were the two tightest djs there, so it was natural we hooked up," remembers UnderRated about the first encounter.

Despite the fact that they were from different backgrounds, 1 Ton is African-American and UnderRated is Jewish, the two formed a musical chemistry as Emcees, Producers, and Djs which translated into some of the best club and house parties Humboldt has ever seen.

In 2000, the group released their debut album "Humboldt County High." They distributed the record themselves up and down the West Coast through a label they formed, called Lost Koast Productions.

In Humboldt, "We became so popular, we were selling more albums than Brittany Spears," smiles 1-Ton, about the groups early days. Songs like the weed inspired "Humboldt County High" and the more serious "Whats Your Purpose" catapulted Potluck into the mix of up and coming West Coast rappers.

Potluck went on to release 2 more full length Cds: 1. Potluck "Tha Lost Koast Kollective" (2002) a compilation album featuring Potluck with underground MCs from Brooklyn, NY. to Humboldt County, Ca. and 2. Potluck "Harvest Time" (2005) which features collaborations with Tech N9ne, E-40, The Mystik Journeymen, and Equpito.

Currently Lost Koast Productions and Suburban Noize Records have teamed up to bring you Potluck "Straight Outta Humboldt" which is primed to go down as a marijuana lovers classic. It has appearances from Kottonmouth Kings, The Luniz (I got 5 on it), Tech N9ne, and a host of others. It is scheduled for release Summer of 2006.

To date Potluck has toured the U.S. and performed with the likes of Too $hort, E-40, Atmosphere, Tech N9ne, Lloyd Banks, Living Legends, Bone Thugs, J5, Andre Nickatina, Blackalicous, and Kottonmouth Kings.
