Successful Lyrics

Four Pockets empty

Scratching for some scratch, I'm trying to put together pennies

How the fuck I'm struggling? I'm well into my twenties

Trying to formulate a plan, I fell off with being friendly

Soho tell me network, I will work the net for benjis (Uh)

Thinking 'bout my cousin, how he wanted to defend me (Uh)

Thinking 'bout my dawg and how he'll prolly bust that semi 'fore he go broke

Used to drop tobacco in my blunt before I'd go smoke

Used to light a black and mild to boost my high, that's no joke

I cut out my vices and I'm still poor

Reached a level of humility, no delusions of grandeur

When my mama was my age, I was one

It was me, her only son

Until 2011 and she gave birth to my young, My yout

Lil brudda, I do this for you

Trying to come bring you some loot

I need a get rich quick scheme, 'Oceans One' is the move

Unless I run that shit with Fontaine, then it's 'Ocean's Two'

Been rocking the same kicks for 3 years, straight up

Shave cause I can't get my beard shaped up

Went bald cause I can't afford a taper

Don't eat the icing 'cause a nigga still ain't got his cake up

They chop trees down everyday and I ain't got no fucking paper

Trying to make something of myself before I meet my maker

Need bread so bad, I'm thinking bout robbing the baker

Used to only think of women and all the ways I could break her

Now I want love 'cause I find that it's my greatest motivator

I just want the money

The cars

The clothes

Fuck the hoes

I'm just trying to be successful

Don't ya know?

Fasho

I just want the money

The cars

The clothes

Fuck the hoes

I'm just trying to be successful

Don't ya know?

Fasho

Yeah

Woke up in this hospital, my chest and my back hurt

Jos just bought a MacBook

I'm 'bout to make a Mac Squirt

Being broke make you want to be the century's best trapper

Or get niggas wrapped in plastic just so I can dress dapper

I'm talking suits and ties, square toes and alligators

Visor on my head, money counter and a calculator

Make me want to wet a nigga, like Jheri Curl activator

But we ain't there yet, I'm talking Ice Cube in that navigator

In the same position that I was last October

I was staying with Marissa and struggling to stay sober

Thinking bout Marcel, them xans had him slumped over

I just can't be what he was

Struggling to re-up

I stopped smoking cigarettes and quit the Wiz Khalifa

Might knock back a beer but I don't fuck with no tequila

Broke up with Vodka, can't remember last time that I seen her

Point is, I just can't afford that shit

These niggas hustle sideways, back door for you that back end

I'm trying to make an honest living, I'm breaking my back and

Reaching out for help, so I can eat, I hate asking

I'm bout to grab the heat and pull down my ski mask and

Get to work on niggas

Have to put the hurt on niggas

Then act like I ain't do nothing

Don't ask me the word on niggas

Jos just bought a MacBook

Finger fuck the Mac, it squirt on niggas

Watch that blood ooze, that's "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" nigga

I just want the money

I just want the cars

I just want the clothes

Y'all can keep the hoes

I'm Just trying to be successful

Don't ya know

Fasho

I just want the money

I just want the cars

I just want the clothes

Fuck the hoes

I'm just trying to be successful

Don't ya know

Fasho
