wannabe

Lacks the faith to lead their life and runs from their inner truth. Basically using arrogance to be defensive against other people: in essence reality.

That person is so arrogant, and believes too much that they are right, must be a wannabe.

wannabe

A person who subconsciously flees an inner deficiency by exaggerating what he/she perceives as its opposite.

Is that Neo shopping at Walmart? Pfft... what a wannabe

Gotta love those wannabes stepping out of a '95 Taurus with brand new Ray Bans. Makes you wonder why do they always look around when they do so... also how many paychecks are they sporting over their eyes as they do so.

Stop telling me about that trust fund and get me two more Big Macs, you wannabe

Wannabe Gangster

Usually white and black kids from a upper class-middle class neighborhood. Listens to only rap (In 2018 mostly trap) music. Usually can be seen in high schools wearing expensive clothing, and wearing pants that show their whole ass, also can be seen smoking weed, throwing gang signs, being a complete douchebag to other people minding their own business, doing very poorly in school and wanting to fight anybody that ticks them off in the slightest manner.
