[Chorus 1: Kody]

No money to my name

We ain't in it for the fame

I got no time for the games that they play

I do it myself my own way

No money to my name (no money to my name)

We ain't in it for the fame

I got no time for the games that they play

I do it myself my own way


[Verse 1: Devin Cheff]

Yeah, I hit the blunt and get to dreaming about dollar signs

World in my palms and I'm grinning like thank God it's mine

Uh, all these rappers got on my darker side

They outta lines, man they outta line

I'm writing murderous shit I'll turn the vocal booth into Columbine

No need to apologize

I got the illеst by my side

Yeah, circle small but thеy all ride or die

Soon enough see my name in the sky like the Arkham Knight

Talking work, boy I'm proud of mine

While I'm looking at 'em with solemn eyes

I got that Kobe Mamba mindset

Mom, I don't wanna die yet

Suicide was on my mind then

Now that I'm high I'm vibin'

Shawty's parents gone for the weekend so I got some time to slide in

I blossomed by the time that

The Vicodin don't seem that exciting

Don't wanna end up at the top and still be cryin'

And motherfuckers call me fake, man they all be lyin'

I proved my worth in this game and now they quiet, yeah


[Chorus 2: Kody]

No money to my name

We ain't in it for the fame

I got no time for the games that they play

I do it myself my own way

No money to my name (no money to my name)

We ain't in it for the fame

I got no time for the games that they play

I do it myself my own way


[Verse 2: Devin Cheff]

Yeah, and everyone saying they'd glow up with me

Weren't the same people who'd grow up with me

Because it's easy to show love when someone's winnin'

I remember getting no buzz when nothing's giving in

A broken home at the age of ten

I was looking for a good example in a world of sin

Lost in my dreams, didn't wanna wake up again

But I found meaning from telling my story through a pen

Man I'm just speaking on some real shit

I see these rappers doing everything they can to make a bill quick

Money don't buy happiness, just new cliques

But I'll be damned if I pass up on some new kicks

And new fits, don't mean no offense but if the shoe fits

I keep it a hunned no matter what so that my movement

Pops off, I say goodbye to the lesser me

Doing this shit my own way 'til the death of me, yeah


[Chorus 3: Kody]

No money to my name

We ain't in it for the fame

I got no time for the games that they play

I do it myself my own way

No money to my name (no money to my name)

We ain't in it for the fame

I got no time for the games that they play

I do it myself my own way


[Outro: Kody]

No money to my name

We ain't in it for the fame

I got no time for the games that they play

I do it myself my own way

No money to my name (no money to my name)

We ain't in it for the fame

I got no time for the games that they play

I do it myself my own way
