Lyrics
Yeah
Mm
What is your final object, your final goal?
What is the list to be completed by the time that you go?
The time you grow old, cause time can't be sold
Not for a dollar, a pent or a penny
Ya' collar up rockin' it plenty
Hollerin' it was seven twenties
Bragging about the new Bentley
While leaving all of the family
Back in the dust, to repair the rust
To get the new truck, see the bullets and duck
Where's the respect, where is the loyalty?
Respect for the Patek in effect you affect
The ones at the table who sharing the same plate
This ain't what Cube meant by a great day
A great day is ruined in the ruins of Babylon
Never to see the light again like Rod after marathons
Runnin' for the goal only to see that the soil you sowed
Never growed because the love you showed was dismissed
Growed up, glowed up, throned up so much
They forgot what you had told them, you ain't slick
How bad do you want to be rich?
To flood up and flaunt on the wrist
To have everybody know yo' name, like Sosa fame
But they ain't never needed you, nobody ever does
'Less you cocaín-a new version
Will always replace, there's always conversion
Like with the decimal place and a fraction
It ain't all that it seems
You may be hungry
But it's a game for the higher factions
Always mad when you cash in and cash out
So it's dangerous to reach in and get a bag out
I wish for that as well, but not for popping a tag out
But with everything comes a cost
Think you've won but you've lost
The line that you've crossed
Is merely a crack in the sidewalk
If cement could speak, then the lines talk
Uh
Yeah
Yo yo yo, I-
I ain't done, I ain't done
Let me finish
Ayo DJ put that beat back on for me
That's more like it, let's get it
Yes there's always a silver lining, but the clouds are much bigger
There's a cause to every effect
A cost to every Patek
Know what you doin
Know if you fluent, they finna use you
They finna use you, they finna give you the world then take it
Take ya' life then break it
All because you had hopped on the wrong train on the station
Just be cautious as the snake, but steer clear from snakin'
Yeah
Thank y'all, thank y'all so much, thank you
Thank you
I appreciate every single one of you
Thank you for coming out here tonight to see me
It means a lot, but um
But can we please quiet it down real quick, real quick
There's still one more part of the song
I want everybody to hear before they leave tonight
So, quiet it down
Just listen to this one last part
Thank you
So once again, what matters to you?
Is it wealth, fame, power?
Or is it something more than these?
We all must find what it is for ourselves that we care about
You can gain all the material things this world has to offer
But that only opens a hole in you
And there ain't much to fill it with, I can tell you that right now
Not that kind of crater
No, not that kind of hole
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
