[Verse 1: Big K.R.I.T]

I did it all for the money, Lord, it's what it seems

Well in the world of night terrors, it's hard to dream

They holl'in', "Cash rules everything," just call it cream

'Cause when it rises to the top, you get the finer things

Ocean fronts, rolling blunts with model chickens

Saying grace over lobster and steak

Like, please forgive us for riding Benzes with camera plates

Too busy looking backwards for jackers to pump my brakes

For help signs to symbolize the lives that hunger takes

Addicted to the green; if I don't ball, I get the shakes

I'd give it all for a peace of mind, for Heaven's sakes

My heart's so heavy that the ropes that hold my casket breaks

'Cause everything that wasn't for me, I had to chase

I had to take, I had to take


[Hook: Dice Raw]

They told me that the ends

Won't justify the means

And they told me at the end

It won't justify the dreams

That I've had since a child

Maybe I'll throw in the towel

Make my (Make my), make my (Make my)

Departure from the world


[Verse 2: Black Thought]

Tryna control the fits of panic

Unwritten and unraveled, it's the dead man's pedantic

Whatever—see, it's really just a matter of semantics

When everybody's fresh out of collateral to damage

And my splaying got me praying like a mantis

I begin to vanish, feel the pull of the blank canvas

I'm contemplating that special dedication

To whoever it concern, my letter of resignation

Fading back to black, my dark coronation

The heat of the day, the long robe of muerte

That soul is in the atmosphere like airplay

If there's a Heaven, I can't find the stairway


[Hook: Dice Raw]

They told me that the ends

Won't justify the means

And they told me at the end

It won't justify the dreams

That I've had since a child

Maybe I'll throw in the towel

Make my (Make my), make my (Make my)

Departure from the world
