[Intro: Talking] An A&R once told me "you can determine the worth of a song within 15 seconds of it playing" With complete n utter lack of the fact that it takes takes all 3 minutes and 40seconds of a song To comprehend what I'm sayin' It ain't a single if it don't fly It ain't a hit if it don't ride Now he couldn't tell me the components of a smash but the ringtones were their alltime high And a rappers only as big as his chain, the flashier the better [Chorus:] They say money make the World go round You never lost til you lose your crown And they don't love you till you're on the ground Or when you're maxing out your bank account Yeah, you do it all just to live the life Even if it means you don't live it right And even if it means you don't survive the night But if even if you do you won't survive the hype Of an American rapstar [Verse 1: Big K.R.I.T] Push it to the limit just to get up high With a wood grain kitted? Ride around town like I never lived in it Gun in my dash, pray I never kill with it I'm that real with it SongtexteGot my eyes on the prize Bills still due, motherfuck 9-5 Searching for a freak that wanna fuck once or twice Wanna buy a bottle but I ain't paid my ties This ain't no lie, I got a vision and a masterplan To hit the block and blow up like a Taliban I make run the plane never have to land I make it where them lames never stand a chance Shit, you'll never know what the time'll tell And see the star or find the scale? We be buying or you tryna sell You either fall or you grind the rails [Chorus] [Verse 2: Big K.R.I.T] So watch me get it how I live Waiting on my momma, screaming fuck how they feel Dodging jail cells and them pigs down in? They shot Oscar Grant swear it gave a nigga chills Let's keep it real, if you ain't looking keep your eyes closed Will I pay what I owe, only God knows I ain't for show, give me strength just to change what I can't And understand the difference between a nigga and the King that I am Gotta keep ya finger on the trigger Pac died, Biggie died, they ain't found a killer Momma say she worried 'cause I rap about the Government And how the Church caked other people out there struggling (it's real though) I just call it how it is foe I'm breathing for a reason, what you here for? They got us with the villains who a chill for? Cause they murdered all the heroes [Chorus] Aus Songtexte Mania
