Lyrics
Pennies traded in for wishes
Wishes traded in for dreams
Innocence now jaded penance
Dreams are just a memory
Pennies picked up pays the rent it's
Where I'm at now look at me
Just another washed up kid
Who lives an artists misery
Just another victim of corruption in a system
I'm just tryina make a livin' but I'm stuck in a rut
Roaches in the kitchen where we dine at neighbors bitchin'
Where the lights at this shit isn't what thought we'd begun
Kids are out of diapers foods gone stale man this life is
Really not what I expected when I stepped in the booth
Whip is out of gas I guess I'll have to walk my ass to work
My health has been neglected if I'm tellin' the truth
Can I crush the obstacles-I know I bust with monster flow
Bro I just want the props to go-along with the skill set
I don't trust a lot of folks-it feels like love's impossible
'Cause people wanna turn on you the moment you feel that
You should go against the grain-but there's something in the brain
Creativity's not optional for artists-it's our lifeblood
I wanna be a name-shit I wanna see the stage
So I roll through lonely days man I'm not going out tonight cause
Pennies traded in for wishes
Wishes traded in for dreams
Innocence now jaded penance
Dreams are just a memory
Pennies picked up pays the rent it's
Where I'm at now look at me
Just another washed up kid
Who lives an artists misery
I guess you can't expect that things that matter gon come easy to you
Ask the people (we see through you)…I guess im invisible
Tack that on to miserable-les miserables-the bitter folks
Are laughing-but I'll hit a note-and show them all I been a goat
I've been so damn despicable-I've been put at the end of ropes
So kick that chair from under me-and watch as I begin to choke
Or lend a hand-I'm in the mold-of music now-I'm in the role
Of masterful creater if I fail I begin to fold
Origami paper person precious on his pedastal
That he put himself on-in his head-with his immeasurable
Amounts of ego-now he's halfway-dead-halfway bled
Every drop-on the pad-never stopped-no regret
So he's said-and his heart-well he put it in his art
Every drop-of his sweat-smears the letters that's he's marked
Every line-hits him hard-every cut and every scar
Tells a story of a man that stayed inspired through the dark
Pennies traded in for wishes
Wishes traded in for dreams
Innocence now jaded penance
Dreams are just a memory
Pennies picked up pays the rent it's
Where I'm at now look at me
Just another washed up kid
Who lives an artists misery
Pennies traded in for wishes
Wishes traded in for dreams
Innocence now jaded penance
Dreams are just a memory
Pennies picked up pays the rent it's
Where I'm at now look at me
Just another washed up kid
Who lives an artists misery
