(Verse 1)
My headphones broke again I finally switched to wireless
I never really got the point of working and retiring
I just wanna make some art and not always be payin' bills
Like I'm a slave to someone so I'm trynna make some deals
Been fuckin' 'round for a couple years and nowadays
I'm busy stacking some paper to have it all for me
'Cause one thing that I learned: money won't buy happiness
But if I get enough of it -- it'll buy me anything
Anything I want - and anything I'll ever need
Maybe this is just good karma that I redeem
For every punch I took, for every scar that's on my skin
People get what they deserve, and I'm feeling like everything
Everything you have to offer, everything that's on this table
Everything to fill my pockets and someone to love me, maybe
But I digress because the way I'm seeing women lately
Every single one's my type, but everyone is batshit crazy
Don't need girls, don't need sex, I just need some paper
Blow it all on weed and vacations, and I'll see you later
My life's been decent lately - how am I just twenty-five?
Feels like I'm living 4 lives - but in this I strive
For greatness and prosperity to maybe leave a legacy
Don't compare to me, you'll have another enemy
Don't care 'bout my family tree, the way it looks, it ends with me
'Cause I got priorities, I need to be paid handsomely
Money on my mind, and some melodies stuck in my head
I just need a beat and a sheet of paper to manifest
The life I wanna live - mind-wandering again
Push my limits to the sky as high as it can get
I'm dreaming of the day that I got nothing else to worry 'bout
I can do whatever I want and make my parents proud
All I need is 7 or 8 figures in my bank account
Not to be materialistic but whatcha know about-
(Bridge)
-The struggle and the problems
With no way you could solve 'em
You're hopeless and forgotten
Nothin' you can do about 'em
Walls are closing in and you just know you gotta save yourself
No one's gonna help the only option is to help yourself
No one understands it when you are the one that hates yourself
When you're at the bottom and don't know just how to change yourself
But I digress, this is not the time to blame myself
(Verse 2)
Back when I had nothing and my life was only struggle
When the tears that I held back would fill up more than just a puddle
When I thought that I would never reach the ending of the tunnel
When I realized that I'd never make it out without some trouble
That's when I knew, I figured out there's a clue
I had to follow that path - without an excuse
Broke all the rules - made a milly or two
Life is not that bad from my perspective, my point of view
Just took a turn, one-eighty degrees, I'm never gon' lose
Life is what you make of it, but don't get confused
You gotta stay true - to yourself and your crew
Otherwise, all of your plans are doomed to fall through
I guess that's it for now, there's not much more to talk about
I'm gonna kick back, relax, and take another route
Need to switch it up a bit and maybe help a brother out
Bigger things are coming for me - without a doubt
