[Chorus]
I made the right moves according to society
Go to school, get a job, start a family
Nothing good in life ever comes easy
Life is not a game & it's nothing like TV
I made the right moves according to society
Go to school, get a job, start a family
Nothing good in life ever comes easy
Life is not a game & it's nothing like TV
[Verse 1: Emcee Squared]
Man I'm sick of school man I think I had enough
The teachers really sucks I don't think I'm learning much
My nigga just made a couple thousand selling bud
Why stay in school when I can make this money now
I finally got money up & now these hoes are down
I found it funny for the dollar I was moving pounds
Addicted to money no such thing as slowing down
I'm the best at this shit I deserve a crown
One day I just pulled up on a new block
All eyes on me like I'm Tupac
I got a kid on the way this my last drop
My customer taking long when I checked the clock
I saw 2 cops pull up to my headlights
They put the cuffs tight they say I'ma do life
I let my kid down, I won't be around
I made the wrong moves & now I gotta pay the price
[Chorus]
I made the right moves according to society
Go to school, get a job, start a family
Nothing good in life ever comes easy
Life is not a game & it's nothing like TV
I made the right moves according to society
Go to school, get a job, start a family
Nothing good in life ever comes easy
Life is not a game & it's nothing like TV
[Verse 2: Emcee Squared}
I went to class did everything they told me to
Wanna start your own business? you should follow suit
I'm working late nights, I got papers due
Missing meals, living off cup noodle soup
Slaving for a good grade, I never take a break
I kept my head in the books, this is my lane
Fuck the street shit, them niggas ain't gon' be shit
End up in the pen or die, that's no secret
One degree down time to get another one
The more you have the more zeros on the income
I'm finally done now it's time to get myself a job
Are you serious? I don't have experience
I been working too hard, I ain't hearing it
A couple months go by, I'm working 9-5
I hate my fucking job but it fucking pays the bills
My hearts not in it, feels like I'm standing still
[Chorus]
I made the right moves according to society
Go to school, get a job, start a family
Nothing good in life ever comes easy
Life is not a game & it's nothing like TV
I made the right moves according to society
Go to school, get a job, start a family
Nothing good in life ever comes easy
Life is not a game & it's nothing like TV
[Verse 3: Emcee Squared]
School is not for me I got no time to be stressed
4 years? got no time for that BS
Even if I did I still can't afford it
My parents keep sweating me like an armpit
I rather be an artist & not a pharmacist
I put my heart in my art & they all laugh
I'm nice with the craft I rather choose my own path
I got the gear in overdrive, never out of gas
Open up my gallery to show my art skills
At the same time I still gotta pay the bills
When I'm not doing art, I'm doing retail
You want success then you gotta learn how to fail
I failed a few times now I'm making big sales
Big deals, I can't believe this shit is real
Thousand dollar painting, that's a quick steal
Picasso with the brush, I'm bout to make a quick mill
[Chorus]
I made the right moves according to society
Go to school, get a job, start a family
Nothing good in life ever comes easy
Life is not a game & it's nothing like TV
I made the right moves according to society
Go to school, get a job, start a family
Nothing good in life ever comes easy
Life is not a game & it's nothing like TV
