lyrics

Since Money Grew on Trees
I just built this here
Told those close to me the goal was change the world right here
Couple years of running stages felt I'm best right here
The best right now
The best me yet

Put the truck over two strands I'm on my way
Show up show out Shohei Ohtan ok
Write to live
Write my sacrifices
Couple missed occasions said they'll be ok without me
I got mounds to move
Some acting like I got miles to cruise
I got miles to go
I almost quit six times last week
Still without a resume it flow on wax or I'll row up shits creek
Times ticking
Hope these lines sticking
The doubt hitting my family can't give a reason to listen
This been one for the ages
Chapter books of many pages just living to write

28 with 28 missed payment
Withdrawals from the savings but I feel the payoff is getting closer
They told me it's a young sport you only getting older
Like quit yo dreams and fit in like you supposed to
These posters tell me different
These ticket sales told me hit the gas and go the distance
It's those who never lived and try to take your living this them to the grave and die and hit 35 and talk about how much they miss when
Hall and Oates I can't go for that
I'm the Goat
Listen back to old raps I did what I wrote
So making it is next I never doubt what I quote
That's just how the story goes
That's just how the story goes
That's just how the story goes

On 16 rhyming every 16
I crashed but I lived cause I know the source above is wanting this being to be something
This in need of these sums to show some and prove what I'm worth
But these stories way more valuable than paystubs
I'm pass the days when rapping on a stage paid a hug and four beers when I was underage and an option for a show to open up for
Shit fuck em
At Taft's with less than half of an ale to kill
If I don't make it out I know Wes will
Smart money on the ones moving small units but trust me dog it's still movement
When all using the vocals to make it out
Why sulk when the real know exactly what we bout and what we do
Couple homies asking Qs like how I make bread and what I do
They like
Where you at
I been touring
Had this white man try to book and front but now the interactions looking foreign
Spent the last year playing every role the actions pretty boring but the show gon make a ton so I'll be gucci by the morning like
Hmmm the bank account is looking gorgeous
Baby told me please get famous so these raps can fund the mortgage
I got more shit that I'm worried bout how they kids I'm teaching gaining confidence and passing to the next grade
That aint rhyme but sometimes gotta steer away from what is plan
Supply the gift you given
To apply to all demands
I'm just saying
This journey ain't some free throws
I'm rock and Shaq through pressure till we journeying to each coast
My talents on a ski slope some hoping it's a decline
Shit I'm giving avalanches each single piece though
I'm weary of people giving fake daps in public cause they fear me but wanna say its competition
And I hope the world is hearing they words
I just need them to be blessed and make it
Cause hate is a thriving traits It's clear as Lasik they ideals is dated
We got different visions
We got different visions

Let me get that back
Fly independence
Bout to make a killing with this pencil
The pen still sharp as the ink dries
This a strike I pen my vision through the Sphinx eyes
This self fund life is killing but I'm finna pass the world my disc like Krillin
Getting Broly every trip when I'm passing the missions
Budokai I notice that I'm new to eyes but I'm beating odds
To be the man you gotta beat the guy so I battle daily
Beat myself while wearing different guise I'm a Lunatic
Murph with he mask wearing fresh ones
I don't worry bout another act I'm the best one come and test
I'll lullaby give a rest Denise Will dreamland
To book Aich Saquan need a G man
Feeling like I'm dreaming cause how the fuck this possible
I just took the doubts out now the man unstoppable
Bonds with two outs three on still walking him
I did everything I need a single here the cycle come
Ahh here the rivals
I passed everybody in the city who was idols
They never gave game but left the stage time idle
Now the world a temple and I'm in it like a Bible a psycho
Yeah lets break chains we need more
Aint no used to going down memory lane
If I do shit inside the city gon stay the same
It change with Aich I want the whole state to travel then journey to home plate
Yeah it's a toast to the living with the squad the next stop is a billion
A million just everything me placed inside the ceiling with limits
I don't place that type of shit on kinship or friendship
I need more feed my life feed me please like Seymour
Seed me out plant these trees to please more
See the next breed these kids gon sing some the youth gon teach some for real
Teach some for real
