| These things are chasing my dreams is probably why I can’t sleep at night
|
| Keeping me up, it’s like I’m running in circles
|
| Oh lord, this can’t be my life
|
| The grass ain’t greener on the other side
|
| The grass ain’t greener on the other side
|
| The grass ain’t greener on the other side
|
| The grass ain’t greener on the other side
|
| The grass ain’t greener and the cash ain’t either
|
| And the ass ain’t meaner but they count on the dreamer
|
| They consuming cause as soon they consume you with their cell phone
|
| Rumors that a iPhone 6 is coming to you
|
| Then the radio waves go into ya 'til a tumor
|
| And your brainwaves do get up your body in the sewer
|
| In the cars, in the clothes, for the stars that you know
|
| Got you running out, getting credit cards you can blow
|
| That’s marketing bro, you a target for sho'
|
| You a target, right now
|
| Car full of clothes for these broke ass hoes
|
| With their dreams that float right out windows like second hand smoke
|
| And they say that there’s no peace, beef with the police
|
| But they eat processed beef 'til they’re obese
|
| Oh god, can you please spare a few g’s?
|
| I don’t wanna have to go and move a few keys
|
| Get a car they be having in the movies
|
| Cause I come from the land of the Hoopties
|
| Welfared, white trash wearing blue jeans
|
| To an interview where they should have wore a two piece
|
| Hella' fine though, hell is in the mind though
|
| Hella' five-o, helicopter’s in the sky though
|
| A place where they grow cancerous bitches
|
| You don’t handle your business and they cancelling Christmas
|
| Four AM, on Christmas Eve
|
| I’m awake though, I can barely breathe
|
| See a flashlight going through the crib
|
| Looking for the money mom hid, just a little kid
|
| But remember every single thing everyone did
|
| Every word, every line sniffed now that I’m big
|
| Cause the grass ain’t greener and the cash ain’t either
|
| And the ass ain’t meaner but they count on the dreamer
|
| (You must find strength!)
|
| Got the whole world under their spell
|
| Over souls they sell until you’re just a shell
|
| You believe life’s better in a Bentley more so than a Chevy
|
| Trying to ball out when you ain’t ready
|
| And the debt’s so heavy but you treat yourself
|
| And nobody even sees that Gucci belt
|
| Who’s Gucci helped? |
| That’s Gucci’s wealth
|
| You putting your food on Gucci’s shelf
|
| I’m from where the hoes so fake groupies melt
|
| And the record sales dictate who they felt
|
| I could almost scream, it’s a fucked up dream
|
| Real shit ain’t dropped since I was like nineteen
|
| If I smoked, I would smoke 'til my brain cells broke
|
| But I don’t so I wrote down how I cope
|
| If the world’s running out of dope, then you make dope
|
| Everything’s so cutthroat, I almost lost hope
|
| But in winter I’ll be summoning the summer 'til the sun is uncovered
|
| And it melts every snowflake under these stupid motherfuckers
|
| And the butterface lovers on the butter soft leather seat
|
| When they baby mother need another check from him when he runnin
|
| And his son is in a slumber
|
| Cause the hunger is his stomach’s like thunder
|
| And you better get up the money for the court to escort your ass
|
| Where the currency’s in the form of Newport’s
|
| One PM, and he ain’t giving up
|
| Staring out the window for that black truck
|
| Because his pops told him that he’d pick him up for the weekend
|
| But he with his friends living it up
|
| Gassed up like it’s Hyundai, hot
|
| And he trying to buy the clothes that Kanye got
|
| But the grass ain’t greener and the cash ain’t either
|
| And the ass ain’t meaner but they count on the dreamer |
